NBA Season 2014/2015

Warriors obviously deserved to win the ship, but they were also very lucky compared to their opponents, First round Pelicans( Okay so they were the top seed they deserved this match-up), then they faced the Grizzlies who had either Tony Allen out most of the series ( he's one of the greatest perimeter defenders ever) and Conley their PG was either out or playing injured, then they faced the Rockets with Howard ( a mental midget) and Harden ( one dimensional, great scorer but always hides in big moments), they actually escaped a dogfight vs one of the top teams out west, Spurts and Clippers who were beating each other out in the first round. If they faced the Spurs or Clippers(to a lesser extent) they would be in big trouble.

Then in the finals they faced LeBron with a duct taped roster, Kyrie got injured in the first game, what this means is, Curry didn't have to face any good point guard who would make him work on both ends of the floor, which would tire him off.

It was easy for them to just focus on LeBron(who still put amazing numbers), Cavs were obviously getting tired in 4th quarters because they had so many key players out(3 starters were out Varejao, Love and Irving), their roster was thin, and their best player wasn't getting rested enough so in a way this was a big advantage to the warriors.

If both teams were healthy, or if only Kyrie was healthy, this would be a difficult series for the dubs because Kyrie would force Steph to play on both ends of the floor i.e they would even themselves out in a way, also LeBron would have help because he was the only guy in the cavs that could actually create his own shot, Irving would be another one.

I am not discrediting their championship but i think they need to validate it by winning again, next season the Thunder with a new coach and KD back will be tough.

I believe they would have won no matter what those "if onlys" would have materialized or not!. let's just give kudos to these young guns. I believe they have earned it and not given for free.
 
Dah, huu mwaka umeenda vizuri sana kwa timu zangu asee! Kwenye NFL, the New England Patriots walishinda Super Bowl last Feb. (@Nyani Ngabu shout out bruv)

Hapo kwa Pats mimi ndo nilifurahi kupita maelezo kwa sababu [American] football kwangu ndo namba moja.

I couldn't be more happier.

Then soccer is a close second and third is MMA [last week Cain Velasquez got his ass handed to him by Fabricio Werdum and I was uber-happy]

Basketball, Stanley cup, and MLB are just fillers for me because I'm a sports buff and appreciate the competition.

Now I can't wait for fall to get here and see how the new NFL season pans out.

Go Pats.....let's got for numero cinco.
 
dah, we jamaa mbona unakaribia kufanana na mimi asee kwenye hicho kipengele cha kufurahia kudundwa kwa Cain! MMA nlikuwa nafatilia kipindi flani back in the days but sio kiviile, ila since day ones zile I was no fan of Velasquez!.

I am not saying they were given for free, but do you really think if they had played a full strength Cavs team with Kyrie, Love and Varejao they'd win? there's a reason why the betting men in Vegas have put the Cavs as next year's favorites despite losing the finals, everybody knows that if Lebron had help Warriors would have lost, then again i am not saying they were given the 'chip for free, what i am saying is they were very lucky they didn't face as much adversity as their opponents, it was perfect storm for them.
