This year's Boston was a tough, tough team. You can be proud of them.

Man I'm finding it really difficult to stay true to my word...

"If we win it all I'll buy a Loon jersey "

No where with them will ship to Oz !

What a feeling of relief, really glad they managed to go all the way this year...you never know if you can make it again (injuries, bad luck, wtv) so to get it on the first year with the OG's back together was really a blessing.

Now that they got the taste of ultimate success, I hope to see the young guns next year with a bit more playing time & with a sense of hunger to prove themselves...we're sure going to need them as the other teams will be throwing the kitchen sink every single game.

Chef Curry finaly got that FMVP monkey of his back. The guy's a living legend of basketball...so lucky to have him in the Dubs.

Congrats to your 2022 NBA CHAMPIONS!!!

I'm thinking that 2015 was for the long-suffering fans, and this one is for the fellas.

BTW, Bill Simmons was a bit salty.

He says he's the biggest Curry fan when he's not going against his Celtics. Says he's friends with Kerr.

But he denied the Warriors were a dynasty. More like team of the decade or of this generation.

Joe House pointed out that they went to 6 out of 8 Finals, won 4 out of 6.

Of course they won 3 of 4 Finals in 4 years, then had two years off due to injuries.

He did say he thought the 2018 team could be the greatest team of all time.

Now they say it's a checkbook title. Haters gonna hate.
We have four titles in 8 years, that's what matters.

If we’re healthy we go to the finals, it’s that simple. Welcome to the Warriors Invitational baby!

If Boston wasn't populated with racism it might be a cool city too. Probably not though.

It's a matter of choice. Homeless people don't choose to be homeless. Racists choose to be racist.

You'd be surprised about how many suffer from mental illness choose to be homeless...

The OG post here irks me.

If homeless people bother you...idk don't hang out with them? Been here for 10+ years and I've never had an issue.

My wife asked me, "Are you really happy now that the Warriors won?"

I said, "Of course, but the main good thing is that I can stop worrying so much until I have to start over next season."

I've had a chance to watch Game 6, 4-5 times now. And I've gone back and watched games 4 and 5. We figured the Celtics out.
We got 3 wins in a row after starting out like a really tough series. And it was, but game 4 turned the tide. In games 4 5 and 6, it didn't matter, even the little mistakes and turnovers, everything the Warriors did looked like a team that was for the most part, in control of the series... Curry blitzes them in game 4, they slow him down in game 5, he still affects the game, gets 16 and the Warriors still win, then they whoop the Warriors for the first minutes of game 6 in Boston only to see the lead disintegrate by the end of the first quarter. The Celts rally 2-3 more times but never really threatening. We ripped their hearts out. That to me was the most satisfying part. Every time they'd get within 8 or 10, we'd just push it back to 14. Slowly draining their will to win. Like the Spurs used to do.
We won it in Boston, three games in a row, and just in control, like assassins. Curry just asserting his will. I don't care what anyone says, he's right up there with MJ, Magic, Kareem.... He's that iconic. Just look at how the game is played now....

The anguish of klay's almost 3 year recovery is wiped away.
The critics that said we couldn't do it again are silenced.
Only happiness remains!
Congrats dub nation on our 21-22 nba championship!

I have nothing to add other than I paraded around with my 2015 Mini Larry O Trophy from a 2016 game giveaway.

Alternatively, you could have asked her..."A week after you buy a pair of new shoes, are you satisfied, fulfilled and sure that you'll never want another pair of new shoes?" :lol:

Love me a checkbook title! They all count the same baby. If that horse **** bubble title counted, nothing anyone can say now.
