Can't defend Steph after this. Guy has completely disappeared during this run.

I guess this seals who the best player on the Warriors really was.

Ding, Ding, Ding.... He's a great shooter and can do some MJ-lite style mid-range creation... but he's not a great passer and his vision is mediocre. I also don't think he'd be that great of a finisher in eras with less generous officiating. (He seems to really rely on getting foul calls when driving - he's not bad going to the hoop by any means... but not super impressive either)


You were saying????? Lol

Amazing game by Curry that will be overlooked. He’s trying everything out there and it’s not enough.

Warriors can’t go into next season with or without Durant with just three scorers on the roster

There's gonna be spin for sure. At least we don't have to see them just overpowering a team in the finals once again with way more talent.

Would have only enjoyed seeing them lose with Durant on the court for the entire series, 100% healthy. Now they will always have an excuse and they can always say they were unbeaten with their big 2 in tact. :banghead:

Kawhi is a giant and Steph hasn’t been able to step up to the challenge.

But Steve Kerr has to answer for overplaying Boogie. This is a disgrace for a coach of his caliber. The Warriors are getting killed on defense whenever he’s in the game. This is horrible coaching.

Congrats for fans able to stay salty about that through a 5 game series.


How is that salty? It's a fact. That's like saying 12 inches equals a foot is being salty. Durant is their best player and he's a 2x Finals MVP.

The Warriors without Durant had a fairly weak body of work, so I'm not surprised at this. They won in 15 because the Cavs team was badly hurt. They lost in 16 and they should have honestly lost to OKC in 5. Durant made them an all time great team

Loving it. Love watching the midrange-game overcome the jack-a-3 formula
