So let's compare both teams without LeBron and Durant. Is a team with a core of Curry, Klay, and Draymond better than a team with a core of Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, and Ray Allen?

Yes I believe so. Draymond is by far better than Bosh. Ray might be a little better at shooting than Klay but Klays defense is what puts him ahead of Ray and Curry is by far better than D Wade

How the **** is Draymond far better than Chris Bosh? And Curry is on par with Wade. Wade is one of the greatest shooting guards in history with very good defense.

I swear the revisionist history on LeBron's teammates is crazy.

Yeah before they teammed up Bosh averaged 24/10.8/2.4 and Wade averaged 26.6/6.5/4.8.

But yeah...they're trash compared to Draymond, Klay and Curry.

I gotta agree with King. Although I think what KD did is worse LeBron took the easy path as well. Lots of similarities there.

For a guy with a reputation as an elite defender it was a miserable failure. The only game they won was due to an all-time great offensive performance.

LeBron is supposed to be a basketball mastermind, and exists as the de facto GM, HC and Superstar for his own team. His entire strategy for beating the Warriors, from player acquisition to gameplan to execution was WRONG. Throw in an epic fourth quarter choke job that would have had the series at 3-2 right now, and it was definitely a failure.

Remind me how the greatest offense in NFL history was beaten in the 2001 Super Bowl. It sure wasn't because someone tried to outscore them.

As I've been saying for weeks now...LeBron has been hoisted by his own petard. If he had swallowed his ego in Miami he could have had the career he and all his dickriders wanted so badly. Instead he's going to go down as the biggest Finals loser in NBA history.
Holy shit... you actually are worse at basketball.

Games 3 and 5 were winnable for the Cavs if Lebron could have kept KD in check.

He didn't.

Comparing what Lebron and Durant did is silly. Both took easy ways out. It's like choosing between STDs. Stupid

Way too much usage considering the mileage on his legs. In every game he practically played two or three quarters in the first quarter. Granted that's his fault. If he hadn't played gm, he could have built the depth he needed. If he didn't fire his head coach, he might have had four other guys on the team putting effort on both ends of the floor. But nonetheless... I remember turning to my friend and seeing lebrons effort in the first quarter and saying "he's going to be totally gassed by the end of the game."

That is design of the offense where everything goes through him. That's why he didn't play in D in the series ( as JVG noted several times) so he had that energy for offense. But like Westbrook he is able to rack up stats by dominating the ball so running a more team orientated offense isn't an option. But hey, his nut huggers can now point to stat lines and yell GOAT so who cares about winning.

Williams, Williams, and Bogut were brought in because the Cavs depth was lousy and the Cavs were struggling to compete not just with Golden State, but with anybody. I don't take much stock in those moves because they brought in whomever they could afford. The Cavs team is representative of Lue's philosophy. Zack Lowe wrote a terrific piece on the Cavs earlier today and he's right -- the Cavs play better when they slow the pace down. And I don't understand how playing in a sprint was considered the best way to beat Durant.
I thought they played better when spreading the floor and in transition you just can't do that with GS though. The only way they could stay with GS is slowing the game down, having an once in a lifetime offensive performance, playing physical and Mike Callahan being the ref.
