    Who cares about the trash Pistons? Their 5 starters didn't even all average double digit scoring

    The Pistons might were one of the GOAT defenses

    They beat the 80's Lakers while the Warriors beat nobody - who did the Warriors beat? Don't say okc or Houston because then I'll say the celtics and bulls

    K, so Boston actually averaged more assists per game than the Warriors did. As we can see, the Warriors did not win without Curry. Would the Celtics win without Bird?

    How many years did it take for curry to build the 15' Warriors?.. looks like 5-6 years

    the Celtics would learn the 3-point game sufficiently by then.. bird, mchale, ainge and dj would be the shooters.. much worse shooters in today's game picked it up in half a year, let alone 6 years

    Scott Wedman was on that team. He shot 4-4 from three in an 85 Finals game against the Lakers, Finals record at the time. Might have had Michael Cooper guarding him? He might shoot his team into a Finals victory.

    Would the Celtics win the championship without Bird, though, is the real question. I think the 86 Celtics could beat the 86 Rockets without Bird. The 16 Warriors didn't beat the 16 Cavs without Curry.
