Well there it is folks. Don't ever compare this team to the '96 Bulls. Or hell, even the '97 team.

Steph Curry - perhaps the worst MVP in history?

Charles Barkley correct? Jump shooting teams are beatable...especially during droughts?

2015 championship = fluke?

Warriors back to mediocre playoff team?

73 wins and they blow a 3-1 lead in the finals?

The is a melt down for the ages. Something that has never happened.

MVP is a regular season award. Curry was the best player in the regular season so it was deserved

I feel your pain I'm a Spurs fan. They had a pretty fair season as well.

Regular season MVP = pointless award if player melts in the playoffs?

Curry...resume forever tarnished.

Both, Curry and LeBron, played very tough. Curry played really good this year. LeBron should get some credit as well because he's played a tough game tonight.

I'm not a huge basketball fan I just tune in for the playoffs. That being said I'd rate this choke job slightly above the the Yankees blowing a 3-0 lead in the ALCS...

73-9 and lose 2 out of the last 3 at home.

Definitely the greatest choke in professional sports history. With all the talk about a historic season... 73-9 means jack with this game 7 loss.

I've been a Lebron hater since the decision... but he earned some respect from me tonight.

I'm happy for him and the city.

I dont think so. The regular season mvp rarely wins the title the same year.

Curry will be fine. Win one next year and all is good. As bad as this playoff was, Lebron has had worse!

Barnes was pure ice cold the whole series, but the refs and some cold nights from the team in general sure didn't help.
