Spurs - 3rd (I'm calling it 2nd)
NSW - 2nd
Golden State - 2nd
Parramatta - 2nd last?

Don't forget Cincinnati. Golden State won last year anyway :P

I put up with 20+ years of losing seasons from the Warriors, you can't break me.

Warriors choked the Finals away. They're now the 2007 New England Patriots.

Given how successful they are I'll take that.

Better to be the Pats than the Bills

The reason I say is because I think you and I are the only Tottenham fans on the board (tomby?) and losing the premier league was painful given it felt like 99% of the world was against us, as if we're one of the superclubs that always wins. Then I realised farrk second in the NRL for me and second in EPL, then realised you were worse off since I at least had QLD!

Curry and Klay had nothing in game 7, LeBron was awesome. Curry deserves MVP but I'm surprised it was unanimous.*

Curry was easily unanimous MVP during the regular season. The guy broke records and was the best player on a record-setting team. No brainer.

But LeBron owned his shit in the Finals.

Curry and the Warriors faded in the playoffs. Playing so hard for 73 wins probably wore them down.

Yeah chasing that record did seem to take it out of them. Curry was even unanimous MVP material in the OKC playoff series, he was insane in that OT win.

I just can't get over how bad it fell apart.

The game is officiated differently in the playoffs and even moreso in the finals, Curry was getting chucked and bumped all over the place.

Clearly he's still carrying an injury or two, then on top of that he's getting trucked by LeBron who basically turned into King Kong for the final 3 games of the series.

Yes I am. Even had an old Spurs coffee mug from the 72 League Cup win that my old man passed on to me until someone dropped it. Was disappointed I didn't get to go to any games at White Hart Lane recently. Still, would've probably got my head kicked in. ;)

Yeah LeBron monstered GSW. Was great to watch.

Bittersweet season for me though, seeing the SA Spurs dynasty well and truly winding down. Was still mind-blowingly incredible that they got 67 wins! But I count myself very lucky that one of my teams has had consistent success in my lifetime.

Would have probably been different if the Cavs didn't lobby to get Green suspended. But they shouldn't have lost three straight under any circumstance (they hadn't since late 2013). Just got outplayed

And I'm not too unhappy about Spurs not winning the EPL. It will be nice to see them in the Champions League for once in stead of trying to feign interest in the Europa League

Speaking of Spurs, I see they're coming down for a match at the MCG. Didn't catch who they were playing (Billboard changed before I clicked what I was looking at) but looks like a European team, Juventus, AC Milan or something.

I'll go and Google it.

Edit: Yup, Juventus. Tix start at $161. :-/

Well, the same thing was said when LeBron and Bosh went to Miami.

On paper they're easily the best team though, ridiculously talented.
