Golden State had no interior defensive presence. I saw it in the 2014-2015 Finals when LeBron put the team on his back and was scoring with ease in the paint. The only problem was Delly put everything he had out there and had to be hospitalized. I'll say it until the day I day: If Kyrie & K Love were healthy the Cavs would've won that Finals as well.

[@GA3S_]

This statement is a contradiction sir 😂😂😂😂😂😂. Correct me if I’m wrong but if Lebron can score at ease cause (as you said no interior defense) then he doesn’t have to carry the team on his back.

When the cavs barely lost game 4 and it was 3-1 i knew they'd at least win the next one. I could see how pissed LeBron was after the whole thing with Draymond and other warriors players talking shit, Iggy mocking him, then the press conference happened. i live in the bay been a Bron fan since he was in high school so this was peak warrior bandwagon era where everyone seemed to have warrior banners on their cars and wearing curry jerseys in the bay area. My cousins and uncles were talking mad shit. Saying series was over. They was saying they didn't need Draymond for game 5 cause curry was gunna close it out. Then game 5 happened. Then they got quiet after game 6 and during game 7 my cousins was very nervous, people were sad and angry the next day.

The Warriors best lineup was their death lineup/smallball lineup and Bogut isn’t even in that lineup.

[@alexleonhappytraining474]

​@@kbthegoat824But if you really watched the game, you’ll see Cavs were centering their offense around Bogut while he was on the court. Namely they always run Kyrie-Tristan pick-n-roll to attack Bogut. When that happens, no defensive tactic on the GSW side worked. You can see Kyrie dancing on Bogut, you can see Tristan pushing the switching guard in the paint and grab offensive rebounds on top of their head, you can see JR/Love/Jefferson knocking down open 3s when the wing player were forced to help. This was why the game time has been shrinking for Bogut as the series went forward (G1 16 mins, G2 15 mins, G3 12 min, G4 10 mins). And this was why even though the GWS got a 3-1 blowout in the first 4 games, winning by 29 points in total, Bogut himself had -19 plus/minus in those games. He was just a time filler, believe it or not. His defensive contributions did not justify for his defensive weaknesses. And when it boils down to key moments, it was always the small 5 lineup to close out the game for GSW. Bogut wasn't even on the court. Watch the games before talking.

Your perspective does exists, so I get it but here’s the thing, Bogut only played 12 minutes a game and he only averaged 3 rebounds and 3 points a game. I hear you on the rim protection where he averaged 2 blocks and altered even more, but what he contributed in those 12 minutes wasn’t enough to be the difference maker, for both wins and losses. He had 3 blocks in game 5 and the Cavs were still up when he got injured. He had 1 block and 2 rebounds in game 3 when the Cavs won by 30. He had zero blocks in game 1 when the Warriors won big. He had 1 block, 1 rebound and 0 points in 10 minutes when the Warriors won game 4. He wasn’t the reason they were up 3-1. Their small ball line up was. The line up the Cavs eventually figure out.

Off the dribble, fall always, deep threes, contested, he was making all these shots that season with the highest efficiency, so if he didn’t produce that choke job of a show he did during the finals 2016, Lebrons legacy would’ve been different, and the Cavs would’ve lost 4-0, cause they were already down 3-1 while Curry was not playing like his unanimous MVP self, so imagine what would’ve happened if Curry was playing like he did during the season 👀. But Curry choked and Kyrie and Lebron didn’t so the rest is history.

The only thing that was rigged that year was allowing KD by commissioner to join them.

[@Fieryvortex48]

That wasn't rigged. The commissioner can't block a player from signing in FA, lol. This wasn't a Lakers CP3 trade type deal

[@lairjmjcccb]

@@Fieryvortex48 It doesn’t matter was it trade or free agency. That move should never be allowed. Destroyed basketball for 3 years. Only thanks to massive injuries they didn’t 3-peat. NBA had perfect set up for possible next 2 great NBA finals but they decide to don’t let LeBron win another one. Only Warriors fans can praise the move.

@@lairjmjcccb why is Bron always undefeated in hypotheticals? The way I see it if both teams were healthy in 2015&2016. Cavs win one and warriors win one. No team wins both. And if warriors didn’t win in 2017 Spurs would’ve won

[@Fieryvortex48]

@@brandan2468 Nah in 2017, I would've had OKC winning had KD never left. Then in 2018 they could've gotten PG. That would've been an insane team

@@brandan24682015 LeBron played without Kyrie and Kevin. Warriors would definitely loss if either one of the would play. 2016 is well known. Cavs would beat Warriors again in 2017. There is a reason why they went for KD.

[@Sparkyxicy]

Aside for the big momentum swings, it really came down to star power. Kyrie is fairly even with Steph and Bron had Harrison Barnes who was left open all series long which is why the addition was necessary. Klay was a no show like he is now.

The warriors had a 73-9 record that season but let’s not forget they also had a 15-9 record in the playoffs with no ring

[@nixlegacion8086]

Lue figured them out? yeah, How amazing. it does not take a bright mind to figure out to attack the basket 2 straight games. when there is no Bogut, Draymond or any defensive presence inside the basket for 2 straight games. Lol.

[@jerryhalstead5174]

Question, has any team ever come back down 3-1 in finals? Then how come? $$

[@blackcloud4126]

No one gives Cavs grace for going 6 games without Love/Kyrie in 2015. No one says it was rigged in GSW favour. No one says it was rigged when Kawhi and Raptors won it. If the Cavs could win 2 damn games without Kyrie and Love, then GS should be able to win a SINGLE game without Bogut. Enough with the excuses. They choked and then ran to beg KD to join. End of.

[@erawwwww]

Well obviously they weren't wrongly suspended, they were injured.. and anyway anyone with common sense said back then that the cavs would've won 2015 with kyrie and love

[@blackcloud4126]

@@erawwwww Green played game 6 and 7. Bogut averaged 5pts/5rbs/1.6 blks in 17mins. They couldn't win 1 game without Bogut? Entire team from coaching staff to players choked that series away. Cavs won 2 somehow without Kyrie/Love.....GS should be able to win 1 game at home at the very least.

[@erawwwww]

@@blackcloud4126 they should've won curry playing like dogshit idk why people don't get on curry enough about his performance in that series

[@suntansuperman26]

Nobody said 2015 was rigged because a player didn’t get suspended after the game had ended and nobody got fouled out on ticky tack fouls in another game. I’m not saying it was rigged but it surely looked that way

[@Uilani-g4m]

Well, because there were no dodgy calls and suspensions in those games. And there was no way Curry was gonna win his 4th ring, with the best regular season record, before James

[@kam3410]

it helps when they lose their center and top defensively player?

What whaaaaat 😂😂😂😂 what I’m crying laughing

[@willawentertainment]

Bogut going down, Iggy’s back going out and Draymond getting suspended is why things changed in that series.

[@brandan2468]

Don’t forget about the unanimous mvp being injured

[@smookc1584]

All facts

[@crizzleyo815]

so why lebron score 41 without dray and 41 with him coming back?

Hope you kept that same energy from the finals before no Kyrie no Kevin love

[@FreddieFingerz]

@@crizzleyo815because Bogut got hurt in game 5 he had 4 blocks in 7 mins in game 5 then was out the rest of the series . When Dray came back bogut was out. If you notice Bron and Kyrie weren’t dropping 40 until Bogut was out of the paint.

[@tracy062]

we need tmac on this podcast

[@Pablowchecksabar]

Ty didn’t figure out anything. Lebron and Cavs fans always pointed out injuries in the first finals. But refuse ti recognized steph was playing on a sprained knee and sprained ankle that entire series or that bogut was injured and missed a game and the draymond suspension was a killer. But the warriors didn’t get that excuse. The fact is the warriors weren’t at 100% either and that series went 7 games down to a final shot. People act like the Cavs just blew GS out. Anyone with eyes could tell Steph wasn’t right that series.

[@TopDrifter203]

Figured it out? Yeah they definitely figured it out after bogut and Iggy got hurt thats when they knew they stood a chance 😂😂
