C'mon Steely, you know you can't start a Toronto thread here and
not expect the usual suspects making the usual talking points ("b-b-but Chinese money laundering!").

That doesn't mean they don't deserve the championship, but yeah, injuries matter. The Pistons had a championship against the Lakers where every Lakers star was hurt. Still counts.

Of course you'd be a Warriors apologist.
KD was of course out for the series and Klay was out for a game and a half, as was Looney (is he really important though?), but otherwise everyone else on the Warriors played through the series.
Yeah, Cousins & Igoudala weren't 100%, but it's the playoffs - that's to be expected. It's not as if the Warriors were the only team with injuries - both Kawhi and Lowry were playing through injury as well; while OG Anunoby was also out for the Raptors (not part of the starting five or anything, but a solid bench player nonetheless - no less important than a guy like Looney).
