I mean, when you've won 3 out of the 4 last years a lot of what you are saying is taken for granted.
Like I'm pretty sure the Warriors are the overwhelming favourites in any match up. In regards to Curry, a lot of his "unstoppable Curry" narrative died when they blew the 3-1 lead and got KD and seeing how defenses like Houston and the Cavs have limited some of his effectiveness. I don't think there is any huge media bias against him. Media loves Giannis and Harden to a dumb degree though I agree.
oh no one has an unstoppable narrative for sure. Except maybe lebron, but he's lost 2x finals than he's won, so not even him really outside the East.
Even to your point I think the CLE (and sometimes HOU) stuff is a bit overplayed. Since Curry has had great finals against them 3-4 times.
eh, I guess it's just what I feel I see. And I probably won't be convinced otherwise tbh.
After choking 3-1 against GS, KD didn't drop out of the top 5 or top 10. despite going cold 8-24 in the biggest opportunity closeout, game 6.
Nor should he have. He's K dang D.
Neither did Westbrook, despite going full WB late in that series they choked.
after Curry choked 3-1 vs Lebron, Kyrie, WB, Lebron, Kawhi, KD, AD, Harden, maybe PG(?), then later KAT, Embiid & Giannis all got higher billing or ranked as better. Which is pretty dang laughable to me looking back
I don't want to go too off the deep end though with all the Curry stuff though. Most of the time I'm messing around. I wouldn't even care all that much if they lost.....since it ain't lebron >_>
