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.

Arenas is the worst NBA podcaster. I suspect we all burn up brain cells everytime he gives a take.

Stain on his legacy according to whom exactly? The answer is no individual, entity or institution that matters.

And even if the 2 with Durant "barley count" (which is ridiculous), that still leaves him with 2 more than James Harden.

He is worse than Perkins and that is saying something. Nothing intelligent ever comes out of Arenas’s mouth.

I mean it's not for everybody. I just watch the podcast for the laughs. They are trolling more than anything.

It always amazes me when realgm'ers convince themselves that players go on public platforms and outright lie about provocative statements, purely because whatever's said is something they'd rather not be true.

It says something about human beings. I'm not sure what. But "I don't like this so it must not exist" is a special type of narcissism.

Lol. Nick Young is proving his clown status once and for all. No one believe that. Trying to get clicks for a podcast no one is going to watch.

:lol: You're so thirsty to try and tear down, Curry, that you would give credence to something said by Nick Young. :lol:

Yeah I remember thinking he looked upset even though they were winning.

So.. who cares though.. he wanted a finals MVP trophy for is legacy, man already had taken a lot of BS for the previous 2 championships..

He probably just wanted to shut people up

I like emotional players. Makes them far more relatable. Jordan crying was one of his most memorable moments.

Steph can blame a certain teammate for helping lose the Finals that year. While it's a team effort Dray very much hurt his teams chances.

Is that video in the OP just straight up misinformation or are people just in denial?

I don't know about crying but it was blantantly obvious to anyone that the Warriors were trying to feed Curry in Game 4 to get the award because of that absolute stinker he had in Game 3, which they most certainly would have lost had KD not carried the team. Sad too because outside of Game 3, Steph was clearly the MVP but such a bad performance in such a pivotal game can sway alot of votes.
