I think this embodies why people hate the Warriors as a team. I'm sure their parade will be a whole slew of arrogance/cockiness, can't wait. :noway:


Honestly I thought that was kinda weak too. Just unnecessary.


This is pro sports at the same time. Sure the Cavs wouldn't take a turnover instead of a shot attempt there.

Salt is salt I guess

KD deserves fmvp. But curry was better in at least 3 out of 5 games



Which year?

Is it considered revenge if CP3 signs for vet minimum and Cavs win the ring next year

Man why do they have to go through all these interviews. Doris Burke is killing this moment. Just let them get back to the locker room.

The Warriors did nothing wrong and should be applauded for building this team within the rules.

However, going forward, it's absolute bull-**** that no other team in the league will be allowed under the cap rules to build a Big 4 of HOF players in their prime to compete with them, barring one or multiple players taking MASSIVE paycuts, not comparable to the slight paycuts some or all of the Warriors Big 4 will eventually take. Cleveland for example is stuck at a Big 3 and cannot match Golden State. Boston has a Big 2, if you want to be generous and call Horford and Thomas that, and cannot match Golden State by adding 2 additional ones. etc., etc., etc.

A series of coincidences lined up perfectly for the Warriors to be able to sign Durant, and hat's off to them for getting it done. But I now have a big problem going forward if they get to continue to run out this Big 4 in additional seasons while all other teams are prevented from being able to make a similar signing and prevented from even building a team with a chance to win a best of 7 series against them.

This is true, but the players did it to themselves by not agreeing to a cap smoothening that's why while I agree and it sucks, it's also hard to feel bad for any individual players, but for the fans of other teams who won't get this same opportunity, it does suck.

But on the flipside, I don't blame him. Turn the knife especially with all the downlow shade they (Dubs') had to hear about it. So, on some level, I understand it.

For sure. Was arguably defensive player of the Finals over Green, Iggy and Durant.

that's why this team is so stacked...even if Klay and Dray don't pop off on offense...their defense is awesome...Klay has played good D all playoffs TBH

If you watch and consume you're part of the problem. You created this.


Trust me barring a change in the offseason I'm done

There were so many supposed dynasties that only ended up winning 1 title. Look at the 04 Pistons or 08 Celtics, who many people thought would win a 2 or 3 respectively.

Team dynamics change, injuries happen, players join to take down the champ.

You never know what will take place in the next few months to a year.

Question is, how does GS not three-peat on the league? I don't really see how they lose 4 times to any as currently constructed.

I'm sure he'll lose sleep over that.

Ya, why would he care about the opinions of the people who have made him rich and famous?
