A really good team that no one will talk about because they couldn't win it all.

I've never seen a team go from unbeatable to exposed so quickly.

The 18-1 Patriots were a few throws away from being the GOAT. The Warriors stil have two more series's to win.

Pretty shocking. I really thought of OKC as a complete afterthought.

GSW may not win another game. They are done.

This is worse. This isn't one bad game (or series of plays tbh). This is getting beaten, straight up, over a series, by a team that is fundamentally better

They lost two games on the road in the toughest arena in the NBA with an injured curry and an invisible Draymond green...try not to overreact.

I don't know about you, but I don't know many people who have forgot about that Patriots team.

I think OKC wins the series in 6 but I would never count out until that game. GS still only needs to win 1 road game to wins this series. They aren't losing another home game.

Having the league MVP go out with a nearly blown out knee then come back only to jack up his elbow will do that to you.

If Steph's not hitting shots no one else can the whole court compresses and their system breaks down.

It's crazy when you realize that they lost 1/3 the amount of games they lost all season in one series alone.

We're not giving enough credit to OKC.

People forget that they were supposed to be this good. In 2012 that was just supposed to be the beginning of perennial Finals appearances. Of course circumstances (namely injuries) derailed them, or else they might have done this last year.

I can only speak for what I see and hear daily, but I can tell you that people bring this team up a lot, for both good and bad reasons.

As discussed in another thread, the single elimination of the nfl playoffs can provide fluky results. Ask almost anyone and they will tell you the patriots were better in 07 than the Giants, and plenty of people still consider the 07 pats the best team in recent memory.

If okc wins this series, you will be hard pressed to find someone that will try to argue that golden state was the better team.
