Curry will NEVER win Finals MVP.
The Greatest of All Time debate in basketball is essentially who has the greatest basketball resume of the player who has the best highlights instead of who is the best player

Well they don’t have Durant that’s a good excuse.


Not really. THey have enough weapons to beat anyone.


No they dont? They've got Klay and Steph who else would you fear on that team to score without Durant? You guys are the better team in every way possible.

So there were only 2 years between the old era and the modern era?

if you told me they would be missing Durant and Klay for a game I don't think I would find it unbelievable.

Raptors fans complaining about refs when they’ve gotten all the calls all series long? That’s why y’all are worse than the terrorists Beyhive.

The OG Warrior crowd circa We Believe would NOT be heading for the parking lot with time left in possibly the last game ever in Oakland. sickening.

It's not even a work day tomorrow pricks.


Houston's rich fans are far worse. But it's great that you bring up the We Believe fans. Those were some of the very best fans I have seen. The crowds seem tonhave changed to the 'rich' over the years.


I loved those fans so much, I wish they were there.

You don’t think not having Kevin Durant Arguably the best player in the NBA is a good excuse? Stop it.

I picked the raptors to beat the warriors if Durant didn’t come back FYI.

Last game ever at Oracle Arena, the oldest active arena in the NBA, is a blowout loss for the Warriors. Love it.

So many warriors fans posts aged terribly in 2.5 hours. "Klays back, here comes back to back blow outs"

:)

Grats raps! I'm enjoying this almost as much as yall are!

It's a shame Curry is going to be higher than other all time great PGs like CP3, Nash, Stockton on most peoples all time lists. He shouldn't be.
