And another NBA season is in the books.  The Golden State Warriors won their fifth franchise title (didn’t realize the Philadelphia Warriors who won two back in the day were the same franchise) by beating the Cleveland Cavaliers.  We knew this was coming.

We knew since the get go who would be in the Finals.  We know who will be in the Finals next year.  Is this a great or boring era in the NBA?  I vote for boring.  Seeing the same teams pile up on the talent to skew the court so bad… Who can beat either of these teams in a 7 game series?

Yes, in part three, the Warriors took the rubber match.  A 73 win team that added ring chaser KD was too much for anybody to handle.  I’m not going to crown them best ever; you know better.  They were a great team…a super team some may say.  I just think it’s unfair.  I guess we always think it’s unfair when our team is not winning…

Even LeBron feels that way.  I heard he really acted nonchalant in the postgame interviews.  He averaged a triple double, so you can’t say anything about his individual performance, and believe me, he knows that.  But his team wasn’t good enough.  His “super team” wasn’t super enough.  But according to him, he never played on one.

So his Heat team didn’t stack the deck?  He didn’t stack the deck with his Cavs this time around?  It’s funny.  Even he is going to complain about this Warriors team, and what KD did.  Just because they were more super than him. Yeah, I guess we always think it’s unfair when our team is losing.

And speaking about losing, specifically on the biggest stage, LeBron joins rare air, and no, that is not an MJ reference.  Of course we all can’t be perfect in the Finals, but there are not many that have lost more than LeBron.  Of course Elgin Baylor and Jerry West, two of the greats, ran into the Boston Celtics 8 straight title run.  Poor Elgin was 0-8 in the NBA finals!  Jerry was 1-8.  Then there was poor Larry Faust, part of some of those Laker teams, who was 0-5 in his NBA finals career.  Now there is another…

Yes, LeBron has won 3 titles, and not on stacked teams (wink wink), but now, he has become only the fourth player in NBA history to lose 5 times in the NBA Finals.  Just the facts jack, just the facts.  Now, the self proclaimed king, the right now generation’s GOAT, is now a five time loser on the biggest stage.  Some things just don’t go together in the same sentence.

Yes, those who know, know that LeBron is great; we also know that he will never be the GOAT.  How about the GLOAT?  Maybe he has a better chance at that.  Greatest Loser of All Time for those of you who need a bit of help.  No, he can’t even get that title; he has won some titles.  Yet, he can still lose the most.  Never give up LeBron, never give up.

Yeah, well, on this day 26 years ago, MJ and the Chicago Bulls were winning their first NBA title by beating the Lakers in Game 5 in Los Angeles; a much more happier time for this Bulls fan.  When you’ve seen your team reach the top, there is nothing better.  When you’ve seen the best to ever play hold court night in and night out, it’s hard to imagine any better.  When you’ve seen the latest GOAT comparison lose for the 5th time in the NBA Finals, it’s no time to gloat; a simple smile will do.  A simple smile will do.  Good riddance 2016-2017 NBA season.  And as always, Go Bulls!

    First, he has never played on a super team. Then, he was not the one who started them. The guy is a complete loser. Make that a 5 time loser on the biggest stage. Way to keep getting to those finals, though. How many in a row? Oh yeah, never even once won back to back titles. 3-5 total record in the finals. Yes, the guy is the best right now but will never be the best of all time…case closed.
    As for the nba, what a mess it is. Basically a waste of the 82 game regular season and playoffs to see gsw vs cle 3 years in a row. It might continue, too. Who is going to beat cle in the east? Who is going to beat gsw in the west? The nba sucks right now and looks to remain that way in the near future. Enjoy!
