Warriors win
The NBA season is a wrap.
What was assumed last July when Kevin Durant left Oklahoma City and joined a team that won 73 regular-season games, was finalized with Golden State’s 129-120 win over Cleveland. There’s a lot to discuss here, in a lot of different takes. We are going to breakdown the numbers and the future in the next segment.
Here, are some general thoughts and takeaways from the Warriors’ second title in three years and Durant’s first NBA championship and Finals MVP.
We have a hard time buying the “Durant has passed LeBron” narrative. If you think that, well, OK. But you’re wrong. Flip those two players and this series is even more lopsided than the 4-1 tally it turned out to be.
