1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Golden State has made it to the final five years straight, but has lost two of them. They haven't won more than two championships in a row in those five years. Making the finals for five straight years makes them the most dominant team in the league in that span, but can they be officially called a dynasty? In my opinion, no they can't. They needed to win at least three in a row to be included in that very elite category. (Sorry Earl!) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Congratulations, to the Toronto Raptors. What did I say about them having a chance to win the "Championship Final"? Most people didn't think Toronto had a GOOD chance to win, but as we established on the first page of this thread, of course they had a chance. You don't make it to the final round of the playoffs and not have a chance to win. Toronto made the most of their chance and won it. Good on them.Yep. I still don't think they would beat a full-strength Warriors team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek19 Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 (edited) I'm not, haven't been, and wasn't at the "Toronto Raptors Championship Parade". Goose (Allen), if the Golden State Warriors were at full strength, and didn't have any key injuries, you wouldn't, don't, and didn't know if the Toronto Raptors would've still won the "Championship Final", or not. The what ifs, ands, or buts. Edited June 17, 2019 by Derek19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrinx Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 The parade was unlike any other before. So many people - it took several hours over the planned time for them to get to the final stop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueschica Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 https://m.imgur.com/gallery/edMxDX0 That's crazy! I know when the Washington Capitals won the Stanley Cup last year, my daughter and her husband went to line up on the parade route at 5 am. They did get some good photos and there was a big turnout, but I don't think it was as nuts as this ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
