When every superstar loses, they provide context, except for kd. It’s insane. Curry’s ring in 2022 is valid but the west best teams were injured or not in the playoffs. Kd came back off a injury when he got swept and kyrie only played less then half the season. No one talks about it cuz it’s kd. All I hear he got clamped and got swept . No context with the goat

@@Yaqztrey5 nah you stop it. Those sorry ass excuses. Injuries happen. If you wanna count injuries that bad, you can go back 30 years of championships and check out teams that had injuries that "effected" their championship chances. The Warriors were already up 30 on the Grizzlies in that Game 3 when Ja hurt himself. The Grizzlies lead for most of Game 4 before the Warriors came back and won. The Grizzlies went up by as much as 55 vs the Warriors in Game 5 and played them tough and close in Game 6 before the Warriors put them away. It ain't the Warriors fault the Suns came up short vs the Mavs. If the Mavs could beat the Suns then they could've given the Warriors a challenge too. The Warriors were just that damn good that year. They too also had injuries that effected their record. They was neck and neck with PHX for the best record up to March maybe.

KD is definitely in my top 10, and all my KD searches are positive: 1) "Kevin Durant 21 pts 4 rebs 2 asts vs Lakers 2023 Preseason" 2) Kevin Durant (19 PTS) & Devin Booker (19 PTS) GO OFF In The 1st Half! ☀ | October 16, 2023 3) 10 Minutes Of INSANELY GOOD Kevin Durant Highlights ☠ 4) Kevin Durant 'Most Dominant' MOMENTS ♨ You want to talk about championships not counting? Aside from forming a super team, LeBron's first didn't count because of the lock-out. In the second he was "saved" by Ray Allen. In the third the refs helped him by ejecting Draymond Green and the fourth was the bubble. All invalidated by sports media.
