You are totally "right " Larry Sanders and Bogut would of help my opinion but there's no answer They Could play more small ball then again their bench have no hope honestly...If They Don't Get Swept I'll Be Very Surprised 👌
damn i hate to admit it but hes right with this discussion... the league is a bunch of ants and the warriors are a kid with a magnifying glass in the middle of July...
we can only hope thats the case.. cus this super team dominance legit makes me want to watch hockey for the first time ever just to get something competitive to watch
Quit bitchin' about the Warriors and remember that if GS was in a position to actually sign KD is due to the fact that their front office has done a marvelous job. They drafted well and acquired supreme talent with manageable contracts, and now they're gonna rip all the benefits. On the other hand, the Cavs threw money at players who just aren't as good, not to mention that their recent acquisitions are all players who can't defend.
Alex Fiume they actually hit all of those points in multiple segments of the show. Doug Gotlieb took it further and said that Currys contract was so low because of his glass ankles. Had it been higher, they wouldn't be able to sign Durant.
Jadein Jones he also said west was overrated. so it went from a overrrated west and a lack of depth to...warriors being the best team in nba history lol. i think hes just trying to create interesting segments, i cant hate on that. (remember when he said kd isnt helpful cuz hes just more of wat gstate is already good at--colin is well, colin)
He did go back on that. Because KD never played that kind of defense in OKC so based on the evidence at the time Colin did sound right, but in reality, KD helped on both offense and defense
The guy can change his mind. I mean with the addition of KD, and still having bench players that fit well into the Warriors play style, a bench that looked 6 feet deep earlier this year might as well be 60 now.
Reginald Foster Um no a week ago he wasn't playing anybody. He's literally getting his face blown off and frankly, he doesn't look like the king anymore. Whole different ball game when you have elite players playing both sides of ball
LeE ThE DestroYer when Lebron retires he will be the second greatest player ever all time. He may even end up being the GOAT and for Durant he will only be known as one of the best shooters ever nothing more nothing less. He will be lucky to even make it in the top 20. Real talk
if thats true then why are so many cav fans crying saying it's unfair? at the start of the season every cav fan was saying kyrie owns curry and lebron owns kd but now it's unfair to them lol
I've been listening to Colin since his ESPN days and he has the same game plan: he has a strong opinion on a player or a topic, but passively prepares a backup excuse if his predictions go wrong. Am I the only one who notices that?
Dee Will colin is interesting but i agree. he argued for 2 weeks how the west might be more trash than the east now goldenstate is so perfect ofcourse even "the best player" cant compete. even the cavs were on the gstate overrated thing. also. everthing he said about utah sounds exactly like the cavs now. yeah the game has evolved but lets not start implying all these teams are the globetrotters compared to the 90s generals.. ewings knicks would have put it on the celtics like they stole something.
Best team in the league with the best duo in the league - the greatest shooter of all time and the greatest all around scorer of all time. What a time to be alive.
oh yes, what a time to be alive indeed. watching the most BORING MOTHERFUCKIN NBA playoffs in nba playoff history. i hope the cavs get another star next year and get a little younger because its getting so boring and predictable. i think this is a sweep., and the dubs are winning by 20, which is the worst part
Damn, Colin, you're reaching a bit by discounting the teams Jordan's Bulls had to face. Damian Lillard and CJ were the only players on their team, Utah's roster this year had very little Playoff experience, and San Antonio was missing 2 of their 3 best players. Not trying to take anything away from GS, but it's not like they had to play Reggie Miller or Patrick Ewing on the way to the Finals this year.
Lets not get carried away, its not over til its over. Im not calling a sweep or "its over for cleveland" until the Warriors actually win their fourth game. I think all other Warriors fans should do the same
looking to make your championship seem like it was hard earned eh? The difference between the championship rings this year and the ones before is that this year the rings will just be jewelry. That's it. Congrats on your predictable season.
I appreciate that someone sees that this series isn't over. It looks likely for the Warriors to win but it's a series for a reason and a series doesn't really start until a team wins on the road. I expect the Cavs to come out a lot better. Game 2 wasn't terrible for Cavs, Warriors just better.
Colin did not just justify Lebron having a good game by saying he had a triple double?! Was that not what he said was a useless achievement (ex. Russell Westbrook) all season?
James Francis this is the tenth comment that stated this. westbrook shot 40%. lebron shoots 55-60% when he gets a triple double. im not even a lebron fan and i can tell u he is better than westbrook.
SRgoonz oh so in all 42 of them this year they all were 40% huh lmao Westbrook hater and lebron lover obviously, you are blinded by the media that tries to make us believe lebron can catch MJ even tho anyone with a brain knows it's not possible
If the Cavs win game 3 he will be back to spewing on how much greater Lebron is over Michael Jordan. Cavs win it is because Lebron and if they lose it's because he doesn't have enough help.
Michael Land that's the point if cavs win and lebron is the one to carry the whole team then he is the GOAT he single handedly defeated the most stacked team in nba history IF HIS TEAMMATES DON'T STEP UP AND BE IN THERE STANDARDS by far only lebron and love played GOOD basketball
Demetrius Walls he's the best at back tracking on his predictions. Look up his videos from early in the season, he said the warriors wouldn't make the finals !
First of all Chris broussard the GOAT...Colling is only the GOAT analyst to people who love lebrun. Warriors the best team ever? Collin just trying to say that so if is Husband Lebron loses he can use that as an excuse. F...O...H. This is the weird thing. People complain about KD going to a team that doesn't need him and yet at the same time, those same people say GSW needs him to beat Lebron. Well... which is it guys? You can't have both.
AS CAVS DIE HARD FAN, AGAIN NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXCUSES COLIN, WE HAVE TALKIN TO MUCH BEFORE THE FINALS WE BLOWOUT ALL TEAMS IN THE EAST AND NOW WE WANT TO MAKE EXCUSES OVER KD TO JOIN THE WARRIORS?? EVERYBODY IS HEALTHY, THAT WAS THE DEAL!! NOOOOOOOOOO EXCUSES!!!
sorry but the warriors are unprecedented and its become lebrons burden to bear. If golden state was the same team as last year I would agree, but anyone who has to face half an allstar team with mvp caliber players and all time greats deserve a break.
BRUH PLEASE STOP..NOOOO EXCUSESSSS 2015 OWW KYRIE AND LOVE INJURED, 2016 CURRY, BUG AND IGGY INJURED..NOW EVERYBODY IS HEALTHY NOOOOOO EXCUSES, NOW WE CAN'T MAKE MORE JOKES OVER 3-1 OMG IF WE LOSE GAME 3
So basically lebron will get a pass for this finals loss? I can hear it already "lebron lost to the greatest team in American sports history, this loss doesn't really count, by the way look at his stats".
It's weird how so many people don't understand what context means. This isn't Lebron disappearing and deferring to teammates against a lesser talented Dallas team in the Finals. He's doing all he can physically do- and playing well- against what is in all likelihood the most talented NBA roster ever assembled. I mean......do I really need to explain why it wouldn't make sense to judge the end results the same when virtually all of the relevant factors are different?
Yeah yeah, he is doing all he can physically do appart from actually preparing all year for the challenge that was awaiting them at the end. Instead of having free flow offense system, he surrounded himself with elite shooters, turned Love into a spread power forward just like he did with Bosh and basically he has done all he can physically do to limit the most expensive roster ever assembled into these two offensive systems : 1.Brun to the hoop, pass for a three 2.Kyrie iso. Now, they face an actual challenge and all of the sudden the motionless shooters are required to somehow get into rythm magically. And of course, instead of working on their stamina and their transition defense, they have been cruising for 9 monhts. Now they look like handicapped in special olympics. And lets not even mention that Lebrun has failed to develop a solid midrange game and go to moves other than power driving to the hoop, which leads to him getting spent after halftime from not being able to score otherwise than 20 lay ups. In 2014 the geriatrics Spurs absolutely destroyed him in the same exact way. Not the powerful Warriors with their prime aged super line up, but the San Antonio Mummies.
+mskidi So Lebron might not be that great as a de-facto coach and GM, but part of that blame falls on the Cavaliers' front office for having inept leadership. Him pulling the strings didn't seem to be a factor at all with Pat Riley in Miami. And Lebron's conditioning hasn't been a problem in any other series this year and it certainly seemed fine last year when they came back to win the whole thing. Lebron is spent because everything runs through him on offense, he is trying to guard the biggest match-up problem in the NBA and the Warriors' pace on offense and transition is too much for everybody to deal with.
That is partly why he left Miami. Regarding his conditioning, last year he was defending whom? Barnes? Only two times he had to work much on both ends of the court for considerable time and consecutive games, the other being the 2014 Finals. Both times he was spent very fast. Didnt he now that with Durant coming in for the Warriors, cruising in defense would be impossible? What where the changes he made or at least tried to make? Did he lose weight? Did he train more on his conditioning? Did he try to develop a solid midrange game so he wouldnt have to spend so much energy driving to the hoop? Did he try to get the team work another kind of style, a team that is the most expensive ever in the history of basketball? What exactly are the signs of some kind of deliberate effort to come in ready both individually and collectively for these finals that looked like an inevatibility for the past 10 months. Mind you, he is heading to break his own negative record for highest points diferential in the Finals from 2014. With two different teams and two totally different opponents. This cannot be an accident.
I'm a Bron fan and even I had Warriors winning the Finals before it started... They built a team to make anything he does look average against them. Never seen nothing like them
Colin logic: Triple doubles are super overrated. Lebron played well because he had a triple double so he deserves no blame. Colin Logic: The way to determine first team all nba players is by asking which player youd rather have in the last minute of a game. Lebron is better than mj, while also acknowledging Lebron isnt as good in crunch time at the end of games. Colin Logic: "Nobody is talking about the cavs winning in 5 games, but should be." "After 2 games, gsw are best team ever." Colin Logic: "Warriors arent as deep as last year, they have holes in their team." "Warriors are the best ever." Give broussard this mans show
I didn't think that all those scorers would be able to work together, but gsw are crazy good. I watched it and threw my hands up like what can cavs possibly do, the warriors are just too dynamic.
People complain that Golden State are a super team that is unfair for the league. Yet they don't accept that they aren't the strongest NBA team in history. So how can they be this strong yet not be the strongest? Doesn't this mean that there was worse times in the NBA but we never complained about them... so why are we complaining about the Warriors. The truth is that the NBA has never seen a team that consists of 4 players with exceptional talent, 2 of them being in the top 15 all time players. A team that has such a good coaching staff that they can win games with coaching alone. A team with the best team work to ever be seen in history. There hasn't ever been a team so well rounded in the history of the NBA. Also you really can't say any team before like 2000 can beat Golden State. Why? simply because the Warriors make around 15-20 3-pointers a game whilst those old teams would make 5 maximum. The Warriors would easily outscore any team in the league. Like the amount of records the Warriors have broken clearly show they are the best but people don't want to accept it because of unbiased loyalty towards old legendary teams and hate for current new teams. The Warriors would beat Shaq/ Kobe Lakers, MJ Pippen Bulls, Birds Celctics, Magics lakers in a 7 game series. It's called 'Veteran syndrome', where people complain that the old is always better and that the current is dirt compared to them when that is simply not true and in fact the opposite is most likely true.
Emad you're obviously a pretty young guy and I get the love for the Warriors you're favorite team maybe? But cmon bro I get such a kick out of people like you that get so caught up in the moment and think whatever they are watching is the best thing ever: best movie, best team, etc. See with more years in your life you gain something called perspective whereby you can compare things over time rather than only being able to see what is right in front of your eyes. There have been many teams with even more than 4 players with "exceptional talent" and 2 being in the "top" of all time players. I'm assuming Durant and Curry are in your top 15 sorry but those guys are nowhere near that level at this stage of their careers. The Celts had Bird, Parish and Mchale at that level. The Lakers had Magic, Jabbar and a helluva lot more than 4 players with exceptional talent. I'll take James Worthy over Klay Thompson any day. And the Lakers with Shaq and Kobe maybe the best duo to ever play together on the same team sorry Curry and Durant. As for the 96 Bulls, Jordan guards Curry, Pippen guards Durant, Harper guards Thompson and Rodman guards Green. Uh sorry bud but you aren't making 15-20 3s. And there is nobody on the warriors or any team I have mentioned that is stopping prime time Jordan. They beat you in 5 or 6 buddy. That was the best team defense ever period. You're suffering from "Young Buck Syndrome" now get back to Instagram or Tinder or whatever you kiddies do. LOl
Only an idiot will hold onto an opinion when new facts are presented. Notice the word, facts. I'd say he's pretty spot on in this discussion and though I'm a CLE fan, it's a thrill to witness history both from Lebron's career and now the Warrior dynasty. Only long term injuries or arrogance will slow that machine and I doubt Steve Kerr will allow them to get full of themselves.
Stop making excuses. You guys make it sound like Lebron is playing with a bunch of scrubs! Foh! He hand picked this cavs team n Heat team. It's funny how the same way LBJ won chips (by building super teams) is going to be the same way he's going to lose. Remember LBJ is the goat! LOL FOH!! LOL LOL the goat....DEEZ NUTZ! Lol
it sucks how stacked they are, but its fair. the Warriors lucked out, drafted perfectly and built the perfect team for modern nba. They were in a position no team ever had in signing a mvp caliber player when they already had the best roster. Durant gave 9 years to OKC. had talent around him but Westbrook hurt KDs career more than helped. Even though him going there isn't very competitive I can hardly blame him.
I'm no Dub fan, but the warriors are looking better than I expect. KD and Steph are playing out their mind and Lebron is averaging a triple double and his team is still getting blown. It's like there's nothing bron can do. For the Cavs to have a chance all their role players have to play great and then some
Warriors are good and Cavs are supposed to be good to. Tbh I think this is terrible coaching Ty Lue mixed with key player not showing up. Can anyone tell me why the Cavs only run isolations by Kyrie/LeBron and do pick n rolls all possessions long until they get a switch? Why do they not have a consistent motion offense? Why do they rarely run a set play? How do you expect to win on isolations? Sometimes LeBron goes through 3 or 4 screens just to try and get a switch, meanwhile 18 seconds went by... Terrible terrible offense. And also bad GMing really... You're already the team with the biggest payroll, paying the most luxury taxes... you can't get better as a team if you keep overpaying bums bro.
That's what happens when Lebron tries to orchestrate everything and not relinquish control and follow directions. All his maneuvering has caused him to paint himself into a corner.
Omari Christophe Koza They should get a better coach, yes. And I've seen a lot of Cavs fans and Bronsexuals say the same. It's not up to me to make good decisions for him, lmao. I don't even know who's out there.
Colin you are changing your mind like the wind blows.Two weeks ago you said 96 Bulls are the most cerebral,intelligent,small ball/defensive/offensive/size over matter team in the history of the NBA.Now to make a new excuse for Lebron`s shortcomings you proclaim these Warriors the all time best team. I have lost my complete respect for you when you brought up the Utah Jazz comparisons.And the most skilled group of NBA players you have ever seen is playing now?Seriously?In a league where you can see 15 dunks in NBA finals? I would not take a single player from this this era over MJ,Karreem,Magic,Bird,Shaq,Hakeem,Duncan,Wilt. Not even Lebron.
he's not comparing players, but the TEAMS. GSW's dominance has been unmatched, that's why they will certainly be in the conversation of the best team in history.
Some people enjoy sitting and watching great talent like this series and others people enjoy debating who the better talent is and I like both so don't tell us to just watch and enjoy the talent when us people who like debating what talent is better do that
ijabalpuri Nobody's saying that, MJ had an all time great team around him with the best defence of all time. These Cavs have one of the worst defenses and benches of any championship team ever. Switch it up, LBJ is the all time great.
ijabalpuri no one saying he is old he is saying the team is a older team most of there players are in the 30s didnt lebron have a triple double last night u idiot
All in, defend the land, the king will come through when we need him the most. Believe Cleveland, buckle down and prepare for the storm, it's coming and we have to push back. We may be down, but we're not out.
Sean Anthony the only reason 2016 warriors aren't rated better than the 96 bulls (the best team in NBA history) is because they didn't capitalise with a ring. please bro take that in. the only reason they ain't better than Jordan's team is cuz of LEBRON. So they added a 4x scoring champ..... cuz of LEBRON
+Rob Jarrett what about when he stacking his team n otha teams n da East can't compete cus he git all da talent on his team... y'all can't take it when it's on da otha foot huh!??...I'm loving every second of dis!!
zeek poncho y'all can't take it? Im a Sixers fan, I could care less what LeBron does, im simply stating facts. Also, they're not even close to being the same. LeBron didn't join a team that went to back to back finals. He also didn't join a 70 win team.
Old school basketball = ISO basketball How to win is a team that consists of PG: floor general SG: primarily scorer SF: lock down defender PF: post offense C: rim protector Today's basketball = spread the ball & ball movement How to win is a team that consists of PG: primary scorer SG: lockdown defender SF: floor general " hockey passer " PF: perimeter threat C: pick & pop
oh really Collin?! Now when you realize that Lebron has no chance to win and be compare to MJ NOW you are changing the topic and talk about how great is Golden State and this is the best team ever!!! I can't believe you!!! Zero respect for you!!!
I still think the Spurs had a more dominant series against the Cavs a few years ago. That series was perfect basketball, every shot and pass was exactly what needed to happen. I've never seen that level of basketball in my life.
The Bronsexuals are crying right now..."LeBron doesn't have enough help" let's ignore the fact he's handpicked his whole roster and they getting smoked like sausages on a grill on a sunny 4th of July!!
That team was in place before he got there. Next year they need a two way player like gordon hayward or paul George. They also need a real big man because Tristan Thompson is trash.
Nicholas Smith yeah ik Lebron has plenty of help has a big 3 and a great bench they have a DERON WILLIAMS on there bench yes ik he's not what he used to be but he could start for a lot of teams
Wack 100 Not it wasn't.. In order for Bron to go back to Cleveland he wanted them to trade Andrew Wiggins and acquire Kevin Love from Minnesota. You do know that LeBron always has a say in who his team should go after right? Also, he asked the organization to keep Tristan Thompson and JR Smith, that's why the Cavs have the highest payroll in nba history. They're way over the cap, so the owner is paying millions in luxury tax, but if LeBron doesn't get what he wants, he leaves. No loyalty whatsoever, for him it's all business.
Colin is right about the fact that the league is more skilled than ever before, but for me and many others, the fact that the best team is blowing out the second best team, and they're both blowing everyone else out, is why the league isn't as great as it used to be.
Warriors in 5. No disrespect to the Cavs, they have a great team and arguably the best player of all time, but man, this Warriors team is on another level. Their offensive options are unreal and they have great defence to back it all up. Greatest squad ever assembled in professional sport. James had a good game but he looked exhausted, Cavs can't keep up with the pace for 4 quarters.
MichaelC3 I mean considering he said he's leaving with a year left on his contract knowing that lakers will wait for him to be a FA shipping him to rebuild around miles turner sounds like a good deal
+Corey Darko can you explain to these m.f.ers that Paul George to Cleveland is no different than Durant to the warriors because I can't get through to them. Cavs fans be like " its different cuz the warriors won 73 games .
This was a foregone conclusion before the season started. That's why KD's move was weak cause it ruined the NBA season. That's why LeBron knew he had to get as much help as he could get. The Cavs also didn't have any challenge in the eastern playoffs to hit that gear they needed to, to reach their maximum potential. The Warriors will most likely win the championship but it's really not impressive whatsoever. It almost makes me sick just thinking about it.
OGMillyMillz he's not wrong bro... I think Warriors winning seven straight is a lot more believable than a team that didn't even make the playoffs this year suddenly not being trash anymore.
They are out matched. They were equal last year and adding KD puts the Warriors on another level. The Warriors are going to be in the finals for years to come if the team stays intact. Unless you are a Warrior fan I don't know anyone that wants the same team in the finals every year.
This league is broken, Adam Silver needs to do something or the NBA will go even more downhill. If the GOAT in LeBron James can't get a game from this team or even make it competitive something's wrong. RIP NBA
Ty Lue is a cool guy. He knows the Warriors are an all time team. It will take an act of God for Cleveland to win the series. If I were a gambling man, I would wager 1/3 of my retirement on the Warriors. The Heard is the best sports talk around!
dpistons149 He isnt? He's out-played Durant. KD has only outscored Lebron,but what about other aspects of being a SMALL FORWARD? Ur biasedness is real. Golden State's a better team,but Lebron is still the best player on the court and other than turnovers,his play hasnt disappointed. Lebron numbers are setting NBA records,why isn't Durant's?
He hasn't outplayed Durant.Durant is playing MUCH better defense than Lebron and is scoring more while not turning the ball over as Much and Lebrons scoring hasn't been as impactful.For the the first two games KD has been better than Durant.
dpistons149 So,if two players scoring over 30+ pts,but one has out-rebounded,out-assisted,etc...U still think the one who out-scored out-played another with higher stats other than PPG? Gtfoh
say what you want about colin, but it's so refreshing for a guy to not be so stuck in the past and actually admit even the possibility that this era of the NBA is better than any other era
I am not throwing in the towel yet, all the Cavs need is to win the next game, besides, the refs gave most calls to GSW, Cavs turn is coming. GSW crumble under pressure,I still believe Cavs and Lebron can pull themselves up.
Zebede Zandale you say all they have to do is win next game as if that's just really easy to do. nobody on cavs can keep up with kd, steph, klay, draymond
Zebede Zandale they need a 40 40 20 from Bron Kyrie and love. And need to somehow contain KD. the Warriors are just ridiculous man. They got 3 dudes who can put 40 on you any given night. When it was only 2 it was a lot easier
Zebede Zandale crumble under pressure, you're talking about lebron right? Lol lebron's knees quiver as soon as the 4th quarter starts then he asks kyrie to save him
Nah fam, they need Dahntay Jones to take out Durant, Curry to get hurt, Dray to get Ejected, and Zaza to get knocked out to come back. Same as last year ;)
can't sum up any better than this . spot on and i don't care what people say man. this team can't be beaten unless you bring top 10 all start not not top 20. top 10 all stars in a team any you got yourself a 7 game finals. who's michael jordon again? oh the dude who nailed it in the 80's and 90's. great amount of respect for all players. but this dude is right. this is the most polished team with a coach thats brought the best out of their people and players who are to versatile that no other team in the history of nba could bring them down until this point. more than anything else its jus so much fun seeing these guys play man never had this much fun I've loved other teams and have had best player list and non of these boys are on my list but i aint never seen anything like this and its been a blast watching these boys having so much fun and killing it and making queen lebrun who is no doubt the best physical player i have seen in time. look like he does not matter. its like yo buddy this is a team game . your talents don't matter go get 3 of you and we can play .
Colin keeps saying that the Warriors are younger than the Cavs, but if you look at the combined age of their starters, the Warriors and the Cavs are about the same age. The combined age of the Warriors starters is 144, and the combined age of the Cavs starters is 142. If you go down the list of players with the most minutes in playoff games, it doesn't drift that far away form those numbers. Colin, please do your homework. :)
Will this series be a sweep?
Colin Cowherd yess cavaLiers cant stop the great curry dramond thompson king durant javale McGOAT
Colin Cowherd is so damn sharp.
+THE-MED sheeed...I kno!!!!sweep!!!
You are totally "right " Larry Sanders and Bogut would of help my opinion but there's no answer They Could play more small ball then again their bench have no hope honestly...If They Don't Get Swept I'll Be Very Surprised 👌
but u said lebron was gunna win dont change your opinion now honestly the cavs got lucky last year
Curry is outrebounding Thompson LMAO
So why u pick Cleveland in this series for lol
Nick Wright has gone M.I.A 😂
Colby Dyer foreal man where he at 😂😂😂
He's too busy compiling excuses.
Colby Dyer LMAO
Been waiting on my boy Nick to come out of his Bron sanctuary with a artillery of excuses!
The bronsexual changed his name to Nikita Wrong.
damn i hate to admit it but hes right with this discussion... the league is a bunch of ants and the warriors are a kid with a magnifying glass in the middle of July...
Tye The Great now we get to see 7 straight warrior final wins
Magic Tux They'll break up before than. Klay will be first to go then probably Durant.
Tye The Great Nah, my Spurs if healthy would have taken the warriors down. You saw a glimpse of whats going to happen next year in the playoffs.
Tye The Great I was at the game last night, during TO JR was looking at cheerleader lol.
we can only hope thats the case.. cus this super team dominance legit makes me want to watch hockey for the first time ever just to get something competitive to watch
Nick Wright must feel so dumb picking Cavs in 5
Zionjrpro did he actually?
Riyad Khan yeah look at his twitter
People had cavs in 4 lol
I have no idea what that dude contributes other than stupid takes.
Zionjrpro I'm CRYIN 😂😂😭😂
Quit bitchin' about the Warriors and remember that if GS was in a position to actually sign KD is due to the fact that their front office has done a marvelous job. They drafted well and acquired supreme talent with manageable contracts, and now they're gonna rip all the benefits. On the other hand, the Cavs threw money at players who just aren't as good, not to mention that their recent acquisitions are all players who can't defend.
Alex Fiume they actually hit all of those points in multiple segments of the show. Doug Gotlieb took it further and said that Currys contract was so low because of his glass ankles. Had it been higher, they wouldn't be able to sign Durant.
The Curry contract helped lol
Did anyone honestly expect anything different when KD went to the Warriors?
eric garcia exactly. I'd be surprised if GSW didn't win the championship this year
eric garcia yes all the delusional cavz..fan.. and curry haters.. KD haters
eric garcia nick wright said cavs in 5
I thought gsw would win, but lebron is so great that I was even scared to bid on gsw
Bet not bid
I remember Colin telling me that the Warriors wouldn't make the Finals.
wait a minute is this the same guy that said GS was not as deep as last year
Jadein Jones they aren't..but they're still good
Jadein Jones he also said west was overrated. so it went from a overrrated west and a lack of depth to...warriors being the best team in nba history lol. i think hes just trying to create interesting segments, i cant hate on that. (remember when he said kd isnt helpful cuz hes just more of wat gstate is already good at--colin is well, colin)
He did go back on that. Because KD never played that kind of defense in OKC so based on the evidence at the time Colin did sound right, but in reality, KD helped on both offense and defense
J Antawn Jones kd has played this kind of defense all year
The guy can change his mind. I mean with the addition of KD, and still having bench players that fit well into the Warriors play style, a bench that looked 6 feet deep earlier this year might as well be 60 now.
cant say lbj getting old either a week ago had best playoff run in history u dont get old in a week
Reginald Foster Um no a week ago he wasn't playing anybody. He's literally getting his face blown off and frankly, he doesn't look like the king anymore. Whole different ball game when you have elite players playing both sides of ball
they just makijg excuses for him lol
LeE ThE DestroYer when Lebron retires he will be the second greatest player ever all time. He may even end up being the GOAT and for Durant he will only be known as one of the best shooters ever nothing more nothing less. He will be lucky to even make it in the top 20. Real talk
if thats true then why are so many cav fans crying saying it's unfair? at the start of the season every cav fan was saying kyrie owns curry and lebron owns kd but now it's unfair to them lol
I don't think anyone has said he's getting old. He's still playing the best basketball in the league atm
The warriors are the greatest team ever assembled outside of all-star rosters and Dream Teams
LL Cool Shay fax clown LeBron all you want Jordan would be underdogs against this team as well
MrWill1729 EXACTLY
MrWill1729 L the 96 bulls would beat the warriors in 7
I'm a Lebron fanboy...but I have eyes
MJ wouldn't let it get that far
I've been listening to Colin since his ESPN days and he has the same game plan: he has a strong opinion on a player or a topic, but passively prepares a backup excuse if his predictions go wrong. Am I the only one who notices that?
Uh yeah...
Dee Will colin is interesting but i agree. he argued for 2 weeks how the west might be more trash than the east now goldenstate is so perfect ofcourse even "the best player" cant compete. even the cavs were on the gstate overrated thing. also. everthing he said about utah sounds exactly like the cavs now. yeah the game has evolved but lets not start implying all these teams are the globetrotters compared to the 90s generals.. ewings knicks would have put it on the celtics like they stole something.
Dee Will sooo true...
Dee Will Thats why i want to punch him in his Face..
Yeppppppp
Best team in the league with the best duo in the league - the greatest shooter of all time and the greatest all around scorer of all time.
What a time to be alive.
THIRDSZN greatest scorer? When they sign Kareem?
Lavar Ball lol facts
THIRDSZN STOP CROWNING SNAKES IN KEVIN DURANT
KD is the best scorer in the game, and they have 3 of the best shooters in the league.
oh yes, what a time to be alive indeed. watching the most BORING MOTHERFUCKIN NBA playoffs in nba playoff history. i hope the cavs get another star next year and get a little younger because its getting so boring and predictable. i think this is a sweep., and the dubs are winning by 20, which is the worst part
Damn, Colin, you're reaching a bit by discounting the teams Jordan's Bulls had to face. Damian Lillard and CJ were the only players on their team, Utah's roster this year had very little Playoff experience, and San Antonio was missing 2 of their 3 best players. Not trying to take anything away from GS, but it's not like they had to play Reggie Miller or Patrick Ewing on the way to the Finals this year.
Just a month ago, yall was saying Warriors are better without KD
Now it's Warriors are the greatest team ever WITH KD?
Lets not get carried away, its not over til its over. Im not calling a sweep or "its over for cleveland" until the Warriors actually win their fourth game. I think all other Warriors fans should do the same
Dub Nation no its over for the next 7 years warriors win
looking to make your championship seem like it was hard earned eh? The difference between the championship rings this year and the ones before is that this year the rings will just be jewelry. That's it. Congrats on your predictable season.
I appreciate that someone sees that this series isn't over. It looks likely for the Warriors to win but it's a series for a reason and a series doesn't really start until a team wins on the road. I expect the Cavs to come out a lot better. Game 2 wasn't terrible for Cavs, Warriors just better.
Atleast there's open minded warriors fans who aren't biased
On fairness, I think the cavs still have a chance. But if they lose game 3, then it's over for them
Colin did not just justify Lebron having a good game by saying he had a triple double?! Was that not what he said was a useless achievement (ex. Russell Westbrook) all season?
James Francis this is the tenth comment that stated this. westbrook shot 40%. lebron shoots 55-60% when he gets a triple double. im not even a lebron fan and i can tell u he is better than westbrook.
+SRgoonz bigger
SRgoonz oh so in all 42 of them this year they all were 40% huh lmao Westbrook hater and lebron lover obviously, you are blinded by the media that tries to make us believe lebron can catch MJ even tho anyone with a brain knows it's not possible
James Francis ur the man 😊
zeek poncho lol i never said he was the goat.
If the Cavs win game 3 he will be back to spewing on how much greater Lebron is over Michael Jordan. Cavs win it is because Lebron and if they lose it's because he doesn't have enough help.
Michael Land
that's the point
if cavs win and lebron is the one to carry the whole team
then he is the GOAT he single handedly defeated the most stacked team in nba history
IF HIS TEAMMATES DON'T STEP UP AND BE IN THERE STANDARDS
by far only lebron and love played GOOD basketball
Blazers in 6
Arshdeep Singh 😂😂😂😂

If they can put together a dynasty run then I'll call them the best team ever. They definitely have the most individual talent of all time.
I love how he breaks everything down. Collin is one of the best in the business
Demetrius Walls he's the best at back tracking on his predictions. Look up his videos from early in the season, he said the warriors wouldn't make the finals !
I'd take Chris Broussard all day.
First of all Chris broussard the GOAT...Colling is only the GOAT analyst to people who love lebrun. Warriors the best team ever? Collin just trying to say that so if is Husband Lebron loses he can use that as an excuse. F...O...H.
This is the weird thing. People complain about KD going to a team that doesn't need him and yet at the same time, those same people say GSW needs him to beat Lebron. Well... which is it guys? You can't have both.
Colin is a great radio host/personality. Doesn't really know the game though. It's apparent when he has former players or analysts on.
McStrokeAvision I'm starting to think Demetrius was being sarcastic...lol
Best thing about Colin is this line "I was wrong on that one.
Humility is a fantastic trait in sports journalism.
AS CAVS DIE HARD FAN, AGAIN NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXCUSES COLIN, WE HAVE TALKIN TO MUCH BEFORE THE FINALS WE BLOWOUT ALL TEAMS IN THE EAST AND NOW WE WANT TO MAKE EXCUSES OVER KD TO JOIN THE WARRIORS?? EVERYBODY IS HEALTHY, THAT WAS THE DEAL!! NOOOOOOOOOO EXCUSES!!!
sorry but the warriors are unprecedented and its become lebrons burden to bear. If golden state was the same team as last year I would agree, but anyone who has to face half an allstar team with mvp caliber players and all time greats deserve a break.
M Brown no he doesn't because he has 2 other Allstars on his team, and he actually has more TOTAL allstars on his team. No excuses, no pass.
Sorry Steven a smith
oj oj PREACH!!
BRUH PLEASE STOP..NOOOO EXCUSESSSS 2015 OWW KYRIE AND LOVE INJURED, 2016 CURRY, BUG AND IGGY INJURED..NOW EVERYBODY IS HEALTHY NOOOOOO EXCUSES, NOW WE CAN'T MAKE MORE JOKES OVER 3-1 OMG IF WE LOSE GAME 3
"....They're deeper, younger, LONGER"
Hahahaha 😂 😂 😂
So basically lebron will get a pass for this finals loss? I can hear it already "lebron lost to the greatest team in American sports history, this loss doesn't really count, by the way look at his stats".
Chris Shawn bs.
It's weird how so many people don't understand what context means. This isn't Lebron disappearing and deferring to teammates against a lesser talented Dallas team in the Finals. He's doing all he can physically do- and playing well- against what is in all likelihood the most talented NBA roster ever assembled. I mean......do I really need to explain why it wouldn't make sense to judge the end results the same when virtually all of the relevant factors are different?
Yeah yeah, he is doing all he can physically do appart from actually preparing all year for the challenge that was awaiting them at the end. Instead of having free flow offense system, he surrounded himself with elite shooters, turned Love into a spread power forward just like he did with Bosh and basically he has done all he can physically do to limit the most expensive roster ever assembled into these two offensive systems : 1.Brun to the hoop, pass for a three 2.Kyrie iso. Now, they face an actual challenge and all of the sudden the motionless shooters are required to somehow get into rythm magically. And of course, instead of working on their stamina and their transition defense, they have been cruising for 9 monhts. Now they look like handicapped in special olympics. And lets not even mention that Lebrun has failed to develop a solid midrange game and go to moves other than power driving to the hoop, which leads to him getting spent after halftime from not being able to score otherwise than 20 lay ups.
In 2014 the geriatrics Spurs absolutely destroyed him in the same exact way. Not the powerful Warriors with their prime aged super line up, but the San Antonio Mummies.
+mskidi So Lebron might not be that great as a de-facto coach and GM, but part of that blame falls on the Cavaliers' front office for having inept leadership. Him pulling the strings didn't seem to be a factor at all with Pat Riley in Miami.
And Lebron's conditioning hasn't been a problem in any other series this year and it certainly seemed fine last year when they came back to win the whole thing. Lebron is spent because everything runs through him on offense, he is trying to guard the biggest match-up problem in the NBA and the Warriors' pace on offense and transition is too much for everybody to deal with.
That is partly why he left Miami. Regarding his conditioning, last year he was defending whom? Barnes? Only two times he had to work much on both ends of the court for considerable time and consecutive games, the other being the 2014 Finals. Both times he was spent very fast. Didnt he now that with Durant coming in for the Warriors, cruising in defense would be impossible? What where the changes he made or at least tried to make? Did he lose weight? Did he train more on his conditioning? Did he try to develop a solid midrange game so he wouldnt have to spend so much energy driving to the hoop? Did he try to get the team work another kind of style, a team that is the most expensive ever in the history of basketball? What exactly are the signs of some kind of deliberate effort to come in ready both individually and collectively for these finals that looked like an inevatibility for the past 10 months.
Mind you, he is heading to break his own negative record for highest points diferential in the Finals from 2014. With two different teams and two totally different opponents. This cannot be an accident.
I'm a Bron fan and even I had Warriors winning the Finals before it started... They built a team to make anything he does look average against them. Never seen nothing like them
Colin logic: Triple doubles are super overrated. Lebron played well because he had a triple double so he deserves no blame.
Colin Logic: The way to determine first team all nba players is by asking which player youd rather have in the last minute of a game. Lebron is better than mj, while also acknowledging Lebron isnt as good in crunch time at the end of games.
Colin Logic: "Nobody is talking about the cavs winning in 5 games, but should be." "After 2 games, gsw are best team ever."
Colin Logic: "Warriors arent as deep as last year, they have holes in their team." "Warriors are the best ever."
Give broussard this mans show
I didn't think that all those scorers would be able to work together, but gsw are crazy good. I watched it and threw my hands up like what can cavs possibly do, the warriors are just too dynamic.
i hope every win by the warriors is a +20 blowouts
People complain that Golden State are a super team that is unfair for the league. Yet they don't accept that they aren't the strongest NBA team in history. So how can they be this strong yet not be the strongest? Doesn't this mean that there was worse times in the NBA but we never complained about them... so why are we complaining about the Warriors.
The truth is that the NBA has never seen a team that consists of 4 players with exceptional talent, 2 of them being in the top 15 all time players. A team that has such a good coaching staff that they can win games with coaching alone. A team with the best team work to ever be seen in history. There hasn't ever been a team so well rounded in the history of the NBA. Also you really can't say any team before like 2000 can beat Golden State. Why? simply because the Warriors make around 15-20 3-pointers a game whilst those old teams would make 5 maximum. The Warriors would easily outscore any team in the league.
Like the amount of records the Warriors have broken clearly show they are the best but people don't want to accept it because of unbiased loyalty towards old legendary teams and hate for current new teams. The Warriors would beat Shaq/ Kobe Lakers, MJ Pippen Bulls, Birds Celctics, Magics lakers in a 7 game series. It's called 'Veteran syndrome', where people complain that the old is always better and that the current is dirt compared to them when that is simply not true and in fact the opposite is most likely true.
Emad you're obviously a pretty young guy and I get the love for the Warriors you're favorite team maybe? But cmon bro I get such a kick out of people like you that get so caught up in the moment and think whatever they are watching is the best thing ever: best movie, best team, etc. See with more years in your life you gain something called perspective whereby you can compare things over time rather than only being able to see what is right in front of your eyes. There have been many teams with even more than 4 players with "exceptional talent" and 2 being in the "top" of all time players. I'm assuming Durant and Curry are in your top 15 sorry but those guys are nowhere near that level at this stage of their careers. The Celts had Bird, Parish and Mchale at that level. The Lakers had Magic, Jabbar and a helluva lot more than 4 players with exceptional talent. I'll take James Worthy over Klay Thompson any day. And the Lakers with Shaq and Kobe maybe the best duo to ever play together on the same team sorry Curry and Durant. As for the 96 Bulls, Jordan guards Curry, Pippen guards Durant, Harper guards Thompson and Rodman guards Green. Uh sorry bud but you aren't making 15-20 3s. And there is nobody on the warriors or any team I have mentioned that is stopping prime time Jordan. They beat you in 5 or 6 buddy. That was the best team defense ever period. You're suffering from "Young Buck Syndrome" now get back to Instagram or Tinder or whatever you kiddies do. LOl
Ever since Klay signed that toaster man...
specter290 that toaster is gonna be worth millions
Wonder if that fan will sell if they win the championship.
it would be hilarious to see the toaster on ebay
This type of discussion is why I love Colin
Colin is the biggest flip ever 😂
Sylvesterl Williams he's not flip flopping. He's saying he was wrong.
Only an idiot will hold onto an opinion when new facts are presented. Notice the word, facts.
I'd say he's pretty spot on in this discussion and though I'm a CLE fan, it's a thrill to witness history both from Lebron's career and now the Warrior dynasty. Only long term injuries or arrogance will slow that machine and I doubt Steve Kerr will allow them to get full of themselves.
name a person who balled besides Lebron and Love
Sir Isaac Mormont frrr
Sylvesterl Williams He was just enjoying some deep fried CROW! lol
got to share this the best analysis i have seen in years ,you should be on every show.
Stop making excuses. You guys make it sound like Lebron is playing with a bunch of scrubs! Foh! He hand picked this cavs team n Heat team. It's funny how the same way LBJ won chips (by building super teams) is going to be the same way he's going to lose. Remember LBJ is the goat! LOL FOH!! LOL LOL the goat....DEEZ NUTZ! Lol
it sucks how stacked they are, but its fair. the Warriors lucked out, drafted perfectly and built the perfect team for modern nba. They were in a position no team ever had in signing a mvp caliber player when they already had the best roster. Durant gave 9 years to OKC. had talent around him but Westbrook hurt KDs career more than helped. Even though him going there isn't very competitive I can hardly blame him.
That's real good GM'ing with a little luck involved...it doesn't hurt to be lucky
Colin Herd are u making excuses for ur boi LBJ again?
I'm no Dub fan, but the warriors are looking better than I expect. KD and Steph are playing out their mind and Lebron is averaging a triple double and his team is still getting blown. It's like there's nothing bron can do. For the Cavs to have a chance all their role players have to play great and then some
Good for Colin, putting all the cards in Lebron's favor so losing doesn't affect his legacy, nice one
Warriors are good and Cavs are supposed to be good to. Tbh I think this is terrible coaching Ty Lue mixed with key player not showing up. Can anyone tell me why the Cavs only run isolations by Kyrie/LeBron and do pick n rolls all possessions long until they get a switch? Why do they not have a consistent motion offense? Why do they rarely run a set play? How do you expect to win on isolations? Sometimes LeBron goes through 3 or 4 screens just to try and get a switch, meanwhile 18 seconds went by... Terrible terrible offense. And also bad GMing really... You're already the team with the biggest payroll, paying the most luxury taxes... you can't get better as a team if you keep overpaying bums bro.
Alex Sousa They won the chip because of isolations last year. They can't do that against KD this year.
That's what happens when Lebron tries to orchestrate everything and not relinquish control and follow directions. All his maneuvering has caused him to paint himself into a corner.
Omari Christophe Koza They should get a better coach, yes. And I've seen a lot of Cavs fans and Bronsexuals say the same. It's not up to me to make good decisions for him, lmao. I don't even know who's out there.
Finally Colin isn't comparing. Wow. Good man!
Lebron was stat padding in this series
Thank you!!! The NBA is so much more talented then it ever was.
LeBron not having great series Kevin Durant killing him on both sides
Charlene Rodriguez he's averaging a triple double
Az Savage his defense is cancer
woah first Colin vid I liked, he spoke a lot of truth, allot of respect
Colin you are changing your mind like the wind blows.Two weeks ago you said 96 Bulls are the most cerebral,intelligent,small ball/defensive/offensive/size over matter team in the history of the NBA.Now to make a new excuse for Lebron`s shortcomings you proclaim these Warriors the all time best team.
I have lost my complete respect for you when you brought up the Utah Jazz comparisons.And the most skilled group of NBA players you have ever seen is playing now?Seriously?In a league where you can see 15 dunks in NBA finals?
I would not take a single player from this this era over MJ,Karreem,Magic,Bird,Shaq,Hakeem,Duncan,Wilt.
Not even Lebron.
he's not comparing players, but the TEAMS. GSW's dominance has been unmatched, that's why they will certainly be in the conversation of the best team in history.
@3:56 I couldnt agree with you more on that bench comment...I was wrong as well lol
this is the same guy who said Westbrook won't be the MVP, and that the Packers are the Chargers of the NFC. smh.
Some people enjoy sitting and watching great talent like this series and others people enjoy debating who the better talent is and I like both so don't tell us to just watch and enjoy the talent when us people who like debating what talent is better do that
where is nick wright?
Colin on fire today... great takes
Didn't Nick Wright proclaim GS shouldn't have never signed KD? Lmaooooo
As much as it probably pained Colin to admit, he had to admit he underestimated GS, but his current assessment is spot on.
People who called Bronnie better than Mj now say that he is old. Mj after 30 yrs played 44 mins in the flu game. Nuf said.
ijabalpuri Nobody's saying that, MJ had an all time great team around him with the best defence of all time. These Cavs have one of the worst defenses and benches of any championship team ever. Switch it up, LBJ is the all time great.
Paron Zubalon Yeah a team that LBJ handpicked himself.
ijabalpuri no one saying he is old he is saying the team is a older team most of there players are in the 30s didnt lebron have a triple double last night u idiot
As Jordan ever faces a team like Spurs and golden state?
All in, defend the land, the king will come through when we need him the most. Believe Cleveland, buckle down and prepare for the storm, it's coming and we have to push back. We may be down, but we're not out.
Cavs need Michael Jordan
This is one of the smartest analysis I've seen.
Stop disrespecting Kobe like that. Between 07-10 it isn't that clear tha LeBron was the best player in the league.
Leon Riveiro lebron wasn't the best til 2010-11.
Kobe was clearly better until 2010 at least
Kobe was the best player in the league from 2002-2011....Lebron couldn't even beat Dwight in the ECF
At least colin can man up and admit he was wrong with his predictions about this team. this is my favorite pod cast hes done. Keepin it 100
why colin look like he bout to cry at some point LMAO
The second threepeat Bull's had at least five players +6'6" who could and often would lead the fast break: Jordan, Pippen, Harper, Kukoc and Rodman.
Warriors are just to good. Lebron is an all time great player but his legacy is not gonna be that great when it comes to winning titles.
Sean Anthony it shouldn't be tarnished because of his finals record. He's gone against teams that his team just can't beat. That's just reality.
Sean Anthony with the exception of the mavs series all his losses he lost as underdogs. Jordan went in favorites all six finals
Sean Anthony the only reason 2016 warriors aren't rated better than the 96 bulls (the best team in NBA history) is because they didn't capitalise with a ring. please bro take that in. the only reason they ain't better than Jordan's team is cuz of LEBRON. So they added a 4x scoring champ..... cuz of LEBRON
+Rob Jarrett what about when he stacking his team n otha teams n da East can't compete cus he git all da talent on his team... y'all can't take it when it's on da otha foot huh!??...I'm loving every second of dis!!
zeek poncho y'all can't take it? Im a Sixers fan, I could care less what LeBron does, im simply stating facts.
Also, they're not even close to being the same. LeBron didn't join a team that went to back to back finals. He also didn't join a 70 win team.
Congrats in Advance Cleveland Cavaliers for back to back Champion!!!!. another year of Choke for GSW. We Witness The Greatness.
Nawl colin you said the cavs were deeper😂😂😂
Tay Smith That's what I was screaming at people. If the bench was that good lebron shouldn't be avg 40+ mins
Tay Smith exactly but people so in love with Bron. He's an great players but they acting like he never lost!
Tay Smith I hope it's the end of that conversation
Old school basketball = ISO basketball
How to win is a team that consists of
PG: floor general
SG: primarily scorer
SF: lock down defender
PF: post offense
C: rim protector
Today's basketball = spread the ball & ball movement
How to win is a team that consists of
PG: primary scorer
SG: lockdown defender
SF: floor general " hockey passer "
PF: perimeter threat
C: pick & pop
So this dude wants us to just forget that he said that Cleveland was gonna win it all? LMAO
Jeff Soto Are people not allowed to change their mind?
i just started following the nba recently. does anyone have a guess for how long this steph/clay/kd/draymond team will stay together?
oh really Collin?! Now when you realize that Lebron has no chance to win and be compare to MJ NOW you are changing the topic and talk about how great is Golden State and this is the best team ever!!! I can't believe you!!! Zero respect for you!!!
Petar Gachevski ..the man speaking the truth.. the truth always hurts that the world we live in
Great commentary Colin, more people need the dose of reality you dish out..
the nba is so boring nowadays
I still think the Spurs had a more dominant series against the Cavs a few years ago. That series was perfect basketball, every shot and pass was exactly what needed to happen. I've never seen that level of basketball in my life.
The Bronsexuals are crying right now..."LeBron doesn't have enough help" let's ignore the fact he's handpicked his whole roster and they getting smoked like sausages on a grill on a sunny 4th of July!!
Nicholas Smith You didn't watch the game did you? Right.
That team was in place before he got there. Next year they need a two way player like gordon hayward or paul George. They also need a real big man because Tristan Thompson is trash.
Nicholas Smith yeah ik Lebron has plenty of help has a big 3 and a great bench they have a DERON WILLIAMS on there bench yes ik he's not what he used to be but he could start for a lot of teams
Wack 100 Not it wasn't.. In order for Bron to go back to Cleveland he wanted them to trade Andrew Wiggins and acquire Kevin Love from Minnesota. You do know that LeBron always has a say in who his team should go after right?
Also, he asked the organization to keep Tristan Thompson and JR Smith, that's why the Cavs have the highest payroll in nba history. They're way over the cap, so the owner is paying millions in luxury tax, but if LeBron doesn't get what he wants, he leaves. No loyalty whatsoever, for him it's all business.
Jorge Gamboa Almost $100 million for JR Smith and Tristan Thompson. Just stupid and look at what they're getting. 🤦♂️
Colin is right about the fact that the league is more skilled than ever before, but for me and many others, the fact that the best team is blowing out the second best team, and they're both blowing everyone else out, is why the league isn't as great as it used to be.
Warriors in 4
Warriors in 5. No disrespect to the Cavs, they have a great team and arguably the best player of all time, but man, this Warriors team is on another level. Their offensive options are unreal and they have great defence to back it all up. Greatest squad ever assembled in professional sport. James had a good game but he looked exhausted, Cavs can't keep up with the pace for 4 quarters.
Wait, I thought lebron was the G.O.A.T.? He can't guard Durant? Hmm interesting.
EZDUZIT1980 No ONE can gaurd Durant!!
Lebron too old to guard kd now. I thought that was already obvious. What 32 year old in history could clamp a KD up 1 on 1 no help behind you?
EZDUZIT1980 basketball is a team game idiot
chewy yo Why do people say "Lebron beat the Warriors" last year? Team sport tho...
LeBron at 27 with a great defensive team couldn't even slow down a 23 year old playing in his first Finals ...
If warriors keep this up. They will be champs this Friday
Golden State Warriors in 4 sweep city
They are without a doubt the greatest team ever. If you think otherwise you're just blind to nostalgia.
Paul George to CLE let's make it happen
not gonna make a difference
Anthony 0893 Put a body on KD. Kyrie PG LeBron Kevin Love Thompson starting lineup sounds like a good matchup
SC 007107 how you gonna get pg13 without giving up Thompson or love lmao, shumpert and jr smith? Pacers aren't taking that
MichaelC3 I mean considering he said he's leaving with a year left on his contract knowing that lakers will wait for him to be a FA shipping him to rebuild around miles turner sounds like a good deal
+Corey Darko can you explain to these m.f.ers that Paul George to Cleveland is no different than Durant to the warriors because I can't get through to them. Cavs fans be like " its different cuz the warriors won 73 games .
Lmfaoo! Collin just say The Warriors Dynasty just began!
This was a foregone conclusion before the season started. That's why KD's move was weak cause it ruined the NBA season. That's why LeBron knew he had to get as much help as he could get. The Cavs also didn't have any challenge in the eastern playoffs to hit that gear they needed to, to reach their maximum potential. The Warriors will most likely win the championship but it's really not impressive whatsoever. It almost makes me sick just thinking about it.
😂
Excellent points. Enjoy the moment.
My Mavs are winning it all next season.
OGMillyMillz XD dude warriors are winning next 7 years
Magic Tux do me a huge favor and walk into traffic.
OGMillyMillz he's not wrong bro... I think Warriors winning seven straight is a lot more believable than a team that didn't even make the playoffs this year suddenly not being trash anymore.
Wouldn't go that far. Although I'm a Harrison Barnes fan. Glad he's getting his shine now. Maybe he's dirk's successor
OGMillyMillz lmao
They are out matched. They were equal last year and adding KD puts the Warriors on another level. The Warriors are going to be in the finals for years to come if the team stays intact. Unless you are a Warrior fan I don't know anyone that wants the same team in the finals every year.
This league is broken, Adam Silver needs to do something or the NBA will go even more downhill. If the GOAT in LeBron James can't get a game from this team or even make it competitive something's wrong. RIP NBA
T biscuit NBA NEEDS TO FIX THERE REFS THAT'S IT, THEY AREN'T CONSISTENT.
T biscuit blame teams for not being good enough not gsw. 3 of their 4 all stars were drafted.
T biscuit who started all this team switching back and fourth
T biscuit just saying I don't won't to see warriors win the next 7 years of finals
T biscuit ever think it is because he's not the GOAT?
Ty Lue is a cool guy. He knows the Warriors are an all time team. It will take an act of God for Cleveland to win the series. If I were a gambling man, I would wager 1/3 of my retirement on the Warriors. The Heard is the best sports talk around!
No goat Lebron topics for today Colin??Hahah Lebron isn't even the best player at the small forward position in this series.
I also like comments like yours to make me feel better. I could say thing as ignorant as that.
dpistons149 He isnt? He's out-played Durant. KD has only outscored Lebron,but what about other aspects of being a SMALL FORWARD? Ur biasedness is real. Golden State's a better team,but Lebron is still the best player on the court and other than turnovers,his play hasnt disappointed. Lebron numbers are setting NBA records,why isn't Durant's?
He hasn't outplayed Durant.Durant is playing MUCH better defense than Lebron and is scoring more while not turning the ball over as
Much and Lebrons scoring hasn't been as impactful.For the the first two games KD has been better than Durant.
@ezrad like all my comments if it makes you feel good about yourself
dpistons149 So,if two players scoring over 30+ pts,but one has out-rebounded,out-assisted,etc...U still think the one who out-scored out-played another with higher stats other than PPG? Gtfoh
say what you want about colin, but it's so refreshing for a guy to not be so stuck in the past and actually admit even the possibility that this era of the NBA is better than any other era
Let's take a moment to realize it take a 73 win team + another MVP to beat Lebron...
Jakob Lozano or dirk and the mavs.
Jakob Lozano this wont be his 1st lost
yea, tell a mavz fan from dallas like me that
Jakob Lozano L
Jakob Lozano so we are going to act like Kyrie didn't play just as well or better than Lebron last year ?
Collin Cowherd spoke a lot of truth in this segment. I must admit
I am not throwing in the towel yet, all the Cavs need is to win the next game, besides, the refs gave most calls to GSW, Cavs turn is coming. GSW crumble under pressure,I still believe Cavs and Lebron can pull themselves up.
Zebede Zandale you say all they have to do is win next game as if that's just really easy to do. nobody on cavs can keep up with kd, steph, klay, draymond
Zebede Zandale they need a 40 40 20 from
Bron Kyrie and love. And need to somehow contain KD. the Warriors are just ridiculous man. They got 3 dudes who can put 40 on you any given night. When it was only 2 it was a lot easier
Zebede Zandale crumble under pressure, you're talking about lebron right? Lol lebron's knees quiver as soon as the 4th quarter starts then he asks kyrie to save him
Nah fam, they need Dahntay Jones to take out Durant, Curry to get hurt, Dray to get Ejected, and Zaza to get knocked out to come back. Same as last year ;)
That's the attitude you have to have instead of just crumbling. Best of luck. -Dubs fan
can't sum up any better than this . spot on and i don't care what people say man. this team can't be beaten unless you bring top 10 all start not not top 20. top 10 all stars in a team any you got yourself a 7 game finals. who's michael jordon again? oh the dude who nailed it in the 80's and 90's. great amount of respect for all players. but this dude is right. this is the most polished team with a coach thats brought the best out of their people and players who are to versatile that no other team in the history of nba could bring them down until this point.
more than anything else its jus so much fun seeing these guys play man never had this much fun I've loved other teams and have had best player list and non of these boys are on my list but i aint never seen anything like this and its been a blast watching these boys having so much fun and killing it and making queen lebrun who is no doubt the best physical player i have seen in time. look like he does not matter. its like yo buddy this is a team game . your talents don't matter go get 3 of you and we can play .
already disagree with this. They have won and lost one championship. Not great. Just a good stretch
Cancerous Turtle I think he means Golden state with KD
steven adams
even then, they still have won anything yet. You can't call them greatest of a time just yet
Cancerous Turtle Agreed
Cancerous Turtle agreed bro, it's too early for that talk
This Warriors team is like a prime Larry Bird joining the 96 Bull's team. RIP NBA
Idgaf Kristine still 🔥 and she's better than the chicks on first take and undisputed
I like to change my usert
I can agree with this
Damon Sidur Stay in her lane!
Colin keeps saying that the Warriors are younger than the Cavs, but if you look at the combined age of their starters, the Warriors and the Cavs are about the same age.
The combined age of the Warriors starters is 144, and the combined age of the Cavs starters is 142. If you go down the list of players with the most minutes in playoff games, it doesn't drift that far away form those numbers.
Colin, please do your homework. :)
Cavs nation
NWF WRESTLING same here but damm we are in trouble it's like we're the titanic and there is holes being put in our ship
Antoine Jackson we are never in trouble when he have the king on our side stay strong
NWF WRESTLING Yeah I'm still rooting for the Cavs, but it doesn't look good right now.
Abe Akucewich it was worst last year when we lost the first two games it was by 30
It's all good. If this is the only way warriors can win a chip then it really isn't that bad. Take the loss then do what they did.
LEBRON HAD A TRIPLE DOUBLE! LEBRON HAD A TRIPLE DOUBLE!! hes had 4 total pts in the 4th qrt in 2 games. come on man
