The Cavaliers were injured last season
The Warriors were injured this season
Next season we will see who is the real champion
Remember, during the last meeting where both teams were completely healthy, Golden State won by 30+ at Cleveland

Teams are always injured or banged up in the postseason. It's just part of sports.
Next year, one or both of those teams will have some injury as well in the postseason.

The cavs weren't fully healthy in January. Kyrie had been back from surgery and no basketball not that long and wasn't up to speed yet. The only real injury warriors had in the 2016 finals was to a 12 minute a game guy that they were outscored when he played.
Golden state, on the other hand ,played a team missing the second best player on both teams and a starter that plays significant minutes for 5 out of 6 games.
One is not equal to the other.

People are too stupid to understand this.
Go through all the champions in NBA history and most of them benefited from key injuries in some way. Last year was a little extreme but that's apart of the game. Luck.
It's why it's so hard to win a title in this league, there are external factors outside of your control that either go with you or against you.

Warriors were slightly banged up. They only lost Bogut for 3 games who was a net negative throughout the series. Iggy had a bad back the last game and a half but that didnt stop him from playing high minutes
Cavs were devastated by injuries having two of their star players go out.

Kyrie was still on a minutes restriction.
Whatever makes you feel better, though.

The funniest thing is how he tries to act like this was Scottie Pippen out there in game 6 of the 98 finals where he couldn't even bend over and had a grimace on his face the entire time. THAT WAS INJURED.

don't forget that Cleveland's best rim protector was hurt all year and still is, also.

Did you watch game 6 of the 2016 Finals? If not watch it again. Iguodala was seriously injured. He could barely walk out there and finished at -25 (+/-)

Comparing the two is absurd.
The Cavs were without two all nba level players...the Warriors lost Bogut.

How many games did the Warriors core miss due to injury?
