Yeah, my intention wasn't really to hate on Curry, as he's great and I love watching him (and have nothing against him). But it's just silly that if Lebron went 4-15 and lost by 30 he'd get crushed for it. Curry simply has a great, great team around him. extremely deep and talented, as well as him being great, himself.

Big difference between the two is the whistle one gets and gets away with versus the other. Lebron gets the majority of the calls in his favor. Curry drives and gets hammered and nothing is called. Also he gets fouled a ton on three point shots and those aren't called. If Curry got even half the calls Lebron got he would average 40 a game.

It has always seemed to me, that guards who make a living shooting, even if the team leader, catch less flak than other positions with equal responsibility.

I could just be using confirmation bias tho.

Lebron deserves most of the calls he gets. He's huge and a bull so it doesn't always look like he's getting bullied when in fact he is. Curry is tiny and moves when the wind blows so it always looks like he's getting hammered when he's not.
 
It's hard to defend Green after he should have been suspended for kicking Adams, but this is just BS. LeBron was stepping over the guy; what's he supposed to do? That wasn't the only time in game 4 that LeBron bitched and whined when things didn't go his way.

Maybe he shouldn't have punched Lebron in the nuts? This is about the 6th time this postseason that Green has done something that he should have been suspended for.
 
Was the almighty Lebron even called for anything? There wasn't a common foul after he threw Draymond on the ground. So I imagine nothing happened to him at all.

it's crazy how you don't realize you're delusional.

They got me on the WCF. I will give them that. The finals are easy though. More games equals more profits. They referees will do everything in their power to ensure a game 7 takes place.
 
LeBron is just the best, plain and simple. Is this the worst NBA finals that went the distance ever? Let's hope we get a real actual barnburner Sunday. I flipped over to the soccer game.
