Lets take it one step further and say that the alternate jerseys they trotted out this weekend were hideous and an obvious attempt to just sell more merchandise. Brandon Mccarthy had it right

The worst part of this is it’s not even close to being funny. It’s painfully unfunny.

Wow, Billy Hatcher turning a ridiculous 1990 world series performance into being a coach. Good for him.

The Shaq to LA essentially made the Lakers a late 90s dynasty overnight. Everyone wants to talk about Kobe, but Shaq was unstoppable during the three peat. The Magic would’ve won at least one championship with shaq.

I think it’s going to be Lebron vs Warriors for the 2 seasons after this one too.

The fact is that people hated this Warriors team last year before Durant.

BUT THEY STILL ARE BUILT EVEN WITH DURANT! BARNES LEFT IN FA AND THEY SHOULD ALWAYS BE TRYING TO IMPROVE THEIR TEAM. THIS ISN’T THE 98 MARLINS!

I legitimately do not understand the Warriors hate outside of the fact that they are good. They built a team with their highest draft pick being Curry at 7, and no one thought he would turn into the best 3 point shooter of all time. Draymond who was a 2nd round pick and Klay Thompson who was number 11. It’s not like…

I think the Cavs win one, but it would be cool to see a team go 16-0

The NBA has been this way since the 80s. If you don’t like it being “the same teams every year” then do not watch because that’s the NBAs thing.

Die hard NBA fans will tell you there are too many games and too many playoff teams. Its’ about money though.

The best part of this is that Tom Haudricourt is a fervent Braun backer and supporter since the whole steroids thing. He also called Theo to the Cubs career suicide for theo. If you call him out on the Braun thing on twitter he’ll block you. Let’s just relax on this whole conspiracy theory since it’s biggest supporter…

This is a rational take. I mean if you had ONE player throughout history to start a team with, wouldn’t it be a guy who can play 4.5 positions and defend 4 positions? Who doesn’t break down? I think if Lebron and the Cavs win the title again this year it’s a very serious question to ask.

so not quite as smug as the ice hockey guys then?

probably, but haven’t we learned by now that the masses don’t gravitate to things that are the “best”. If they did the NFL wouldn’t be the most popular sport in the US.

Oh look hockey guy showed up in the comments section.

It’s not like it is now though where it’s just accepted. It really took those last 2 titles to cement it and he was seen as transcendent, but still had his doubters. I mean there are people saying Lebron isn’t a top 3 player, just like you wouldn’t have seen people saying Jordan isn’t the GOAT if the internet existed…

yeah I know people don’t want to admit it right now but Lebron is the 2nd or 3rd best. Jordan is still #1 obviously. People weren’t calling Jordan the GOAT in the 90s either and saw him as a guy who only accumulated stats because he took so many shots.

And then the rockets and Bulls in the 90s won 8. BUT THIS IS A NEW PROBLEM YEP.

LOL embarrassed when the finals will probably have the highest rated game 1 since 98? Everyone says they hate when “the same teams always win” and “the playoffs are boring” but people only watch when the biggest stars are in the finals. Just enjoy the Warriors for being an all time great super team and the 2nd or 3rd…
