    It's a toss up but I think it's close.
    Despite having only 1 mvp Shaq had a dog ass career.
    Its his post Miami years that make him look bad.

    Kobe said he was lazy and the ? still finished with 28k points.

    The more I think about that lazy yoke we hang on him, the more I think that may be unfair. ? was beat on for 82 games a year plus playoffs for years. It's hard to train as a big dude in optimal circumstances let alone when you take the abuse he was.

    Perhaps it wasn't lazy so much as he had to sacrifice training for rest to play.

    On the flip side, if he really was unhurt somehow from all the flagrant fouling and could've trained harder... I shudder to think. ? couldn't do ? three on one with Diesel out of shape. The GOAT discussion would be completely different with Shaq out here with abs, footwork, and a fadeaway jumper through his Lakers years.

    Damn... who could've got a ring from 00-10 with Kobe hitting peak and Shaq in Orlando shape?

    I ain't making no excuses for dude but I think Curry really was/is hurt.

    He played extremely timid. He didn't make the same moves or cuts that he'd used to. Everything was a jumper. He played like the rookie/sophomore version of himself. When a big switched on him he couldn't take advantage of the mismatch. Love and TT played good defense on him almost all series.

    Last year whenever a big switched on him it was a bucket every time. They just ran outta gas

    Nope. Mozgov.. .MOZGOV , was containing Steph on switches

    Steph doesn't work in the mid range enough. Not downplaying those bigs at all but when a ? JUST wants to shoot a 3 and you can give him the layup, its not AS hard as it looks
    to just guard that. Not easy, but to compare, no big would ever be ablr to guard a Kyrie, a Wstbrook, a Wall as often as bigs guard Steph

    That's on Steph. He's reversing traditional bball logic. At every level, when a big is on a PG whats the first thng you say : blow by him! Steph does the opposite

    but im talking ? when i basically said the same thing...

    ole say it in my terms ass ?

    Man shut up ? boy. I swear your trolling ass post have become quite annoying. Get a ? hobby

    my hobby is ? on you.....fukk boy..really...sounds like you in your feelings and lashing out.

    you know how to eat a dikk...ask your dad
    an dont acknowledge me if you have a problem

    Low key the Warriors lost the series when he went out though. No inside presence and rebounding meant Golden state was gonna have to play perfect to pull it out.

    Real talk, that's why the Cavs need to retool if they want a chance to repeat. I don't think they will trade Love because GS is one of the few teams that he doesn't fit against, and there ain't a guarantee GS would make it to three straight finals. RJ gonna retire, James Jones should retire, and they probably won't need to resign Delly or Mo if they can find better out there. They need a 6'7-6'8 wing defender/3 pt shooter and another big that can move.

    Crazy thing is GS can get better. They can let Barnes and Ezeli go and find better players in free agency. Depending on what they do, them ? could be a legitimate nightmare next year if they get the right pieces.

    I thought about it early last week. ...i told my homie if Dwight is smart he would be begging to get to GS....everyone talking about GS going after KD scrap that and sign Dwight. I guarantee they see the finals at least 2 or 3 times with him at center with the core of Steph Klay and Green

    I had curry as no higher than third best player behind bron n kd, but I wasn't as mad at folks getting caught up n sayin he the best as some others, I still think he had a monster season and is more than just a shooter

    No need to make excuses, injuries are part of the game. We'll be back next year and I'm hoping Cavs return to the final too.

    A humble warrior is more dangerous than an arrogant one. We got this next season.

    I still wouldn't put Lebron over Kobe. In a finals you know you taking Kobe, Lebron has the better stats, but a lot of stats (for every player) don't tell the whole story (garbage time stats etc)
