Was like watching a slot machine with ringing bells last night for 10-15 minutes after the game, when all the series plays started cashing in too. That was seriously so much $$$$ in that series.
I honestly played it as perfect as possible on a 1 way street. I minimized damage in game 1 and 2, then hammered some quarters and halves reallly good once thye started hitting. Even some team totals. 3 straight wins and lives. Then, of course, got the sweet series odds to boot. Wow - just monstrous.
All that aside, i'm just happy to see my vision get validated. This Warriors team was a great team - obviously. They were overvalued, although I underestimated how much they cared about each regular season game. Just goes to show you how different playoff ball is from regular season ball.
This team is made for a long season, with mediocre effort by so many. The fit is perfect for Curry - a high scoring team that won't force you to play too hard both ways, so you can keep those fresh shooting legs. Losing as many games in the playoffs as the entire regular season validates how much tougher playoff ball is. They made Curry work on D, they played him closer and tougher on O, and he looked exhausted by the end. Even if you thought Curry was in some realm with the Kobe/MJ/Lebron crowd, he could never be as good as those guys because he's too frail. That big, athletic body frame is so key for the grind of the playoffs. He will never have that. He's a great player, unbelievable shooter - and I actually really like Steph (believe it or not, I don't care), but the perspective when analyzing him and this team is all that I reacted to.
For me, everything is relative - and that's all I reacted to. Of course, some of my comments and remarks are sarcastic and looking for a rise, but my thesis is the same... we are wayyyy to quick to try and anoint everyone/everything to the greatest and better than the rest, etc. Just give it time. I think this year was peak Curry. I hope he stays healthy, but I don't think he will have the longevity to be an all-time great one. We will see. Like most things in life, my opinions/views will ultimately be proven correct, lol
Fun season - I will see you in the baseball forum at some point. Rough start to the season in there for me, and frankly, it's been very nice not watching baseball the past few weeks. I legit haven't seen a thing in 2 weeks. The White Sox fade was the only thing i was certain about. What an atrocious lineup they have. Hopefully, my man Tai is dealing.
GL all - best of luck in betting and life. Cheers.
