First of all, this is just not true. The 1996 Bulls would have worked this team, and I think the 2017 Cavs would have too. The 2016 Cavs definitely would have. Those are arguably the two best teams in NBA history (72 win champion Bulls, and the champion team that beat a 73 win team).
GS got lucky that CP3 was hurt. I'd argue the 2018 Rockets were better. They won 3 of 4, that's great for their fans, but they are not the greatest anything.
Rockets were lucky Igodala didn't play or they never would have their "if CP3 didn't get hurt" what if to harp on the next 5 years.
Warriors with healthy Iguodala = unbeatable and would literally annihilate the 96 Bulls. Nothing against those guys it's just a totally different league nowadays. Steve Kerr guarding Steph Curry. Okay then.
