Nick Young says Steph Curry almost cried in locker room after a win because he knew he wouldn't be Finals MVP

Does this affect Steph's legacy as a selfless teammate and leader?

Probably nonsense.

People lie on these podcasts for more clicks.

And Nick Young was too high in all likelihood to remember the actual facts.

Zero effect on his legacy but it shows how much this stuff can matter to guys(even though some people think it doesn't).

I think he's confusing Steph with Morrison ...

Yep this is a stain on his legacy for sure. so much for being selfless and only caring about the team. He wanted individual glory and knew that having Durant there hurt both of their legacies. Those two rings he won with KD barely counts.

Cringe. KD joining warriors hurt curry’s legacy whether he’d like to admit it or not

I think I'll trust Curry and his stellar reputation over a scrub named Swaggy desperate to stay relevant any way he can...

We giving career burnouts Nick Young a platform is wild

Not sure what the problem is with this. There's a game within the game and all players have certain goals and accolades they want to achieve.

Duh. Steph was gunning for the award the last couple of games. It was fairly obvious if you were watching.

I remember watching game 4 and telling my friend, 'I think they are force-feeding Curry the ball so he can win the Finals MVP.' LMAO. Turns out I might be right after all.

Steph vs KD

game 1
29-9-6 vs 26-6-9

game 2
33-8-7 vs 26-7-9

game 3
11-6-5 vs 43-7-13

game 4
37-4-6 vs 20-10-12

He was probably more upset with his own game than anything else.

Nick Young is low hanging fruit

If he was not trying to win the MVP, why was he so bummed out after a loss going up 3-0. Most stars would be happy because they won while they having a bad night. What will happen if I have a good night?

This has nothing to do with the topic, but that Gil podcast is absolutely hilarious.

Rashad McCants is the ultimate troll though. He's dumb, but he's dumb funny. I wouldn't mind seeing him replace Kendrick Perkins on ESPN.

Steph should have been the Finals MVP

I highly doubt this is true. Nowadays nba commentators will say almost anything to get views. We're all falling for it by talking about it here on RealGM.

I believe it, even though I don't have a problem with it. Swaggy P has no reason to lie.

LOL, this is Nick Young talking to Gilbert Arenas. If you're really expecting honesty or accuracy has any value in the conversation, you've missed the assignment.

I do think there might be some truth to this or some version of it, but those two guys have been screaming for years that they're kings of gossip and BS, everything's a barbershop exaggeration with them. That's the whole point of them, the fun of them.
