    Why do I hate thee? Let me count the ways:
    • Curry turning his back on 3pt attempts while they're still in the air
    • Draymond always starting ****, then getting upset and professing his innocence the few times he's called on it
    • Because "everyone knows James Harden doesn't play defense" yet Curry gets a pass while being a significantly worse defender
    • Can't really put my finger on why I hate Kerr so much, other than him being a sanctimonious prick
    • Seriously, KD? You didn't want to earn a ring, you just wanted to show up and claim yours. Lost so much respect for a UT guy.
    • Thompson getting mentions for the all-defense team. WTF? No, seriously: WTActualF?
    • The constant uncalled illegal screens, especially when Bogut was there
    • Ref-coddling. I don't think any player in the league is given a pass on technical fouls earned like Draymond. Maybe no player EVER.
    • Most of all, because of the fans and media who keep labeling them a "dynasty" even though they've only won 2 chips. The Celtics were a dynasty. The Bulls were a dynasty. I just wish the media would make them earn it before bestowing them the dynasty title.
    I could keep going for hours, but then who would take my place as lead actor in these pornos?

    They are arrogant and annoying from top to bottom. They exude the "coastal elite" syndrome of imaginary superiority. They see themselves not only as better at basketball, but they think they know everything. They mixed basketball with politics which I hate. Durant is a ring chaser, which I disrespect. Durant was once humble and soft-spoken and has turned into a jerk. Green is a dirty player.

    Love them or Hate them

    I dislike their culture but I have to give them credit for building the 'right way'.

    They got Curry, Klay and Draymond (and initally Harrison Barnes who was at least promising to say the least) who were drafted by GSW.

    They dun know better than be a Worrier. They bleed Golden State. That is their CORE.

    That is exactly why the SPURS were so tough in the past, they got key players who bled Spurs Black and White from the very beginning.


    I know Harden = Houston's face but OKC will always be the team that drafted him and LA will always be a sweet spot for him, we knew that already........

    I don’t hate them at all. It’s annoying though that Durant went there of course.

    Which could cause Lebron to come here if the Rockets and Cavs both lose to them this playoffs.

    If that happens and the Rockets then beat them twice. I will remember this post haha

    The biggest thing I hate about them is Draymond and Zaza. I have zero respect for players that attempt to injure opponents, especially guys that do it routinely. Theres no place for that in any sport

    As for the rest. I hate Klay because of the shock jock narrative that existed for a while that he was maybe the best 2 guard in the league (a joke by any standard) - granted that isn't something he did. And I just don't like the demeanor of Curry, especially the mouthpiece. I respect his game unlike Draymond and Zaza, but I dont like his body language.

    Oh, and Durant is just a b****

    When I lived in the Bay Area I used to like the Warriors. These were the days of Don Nelson, Chris Mullins, Tim Hardaway and Manute Bol. They were a fun goofy team with a goofy coach. They are a long way from there and others posters have noted most of their fans are bandwagon fans who know little about their history.

    I know I am in the minority, but Draymond Green is someone I don't have much of a problem with. Mostly because I respect his competitiveness and fight. He is the heart of that team and is their inspirational leader. Curry is not rallying the troops.

    As for the things I hate with the Warriors....

    1) Mouthpiece chewing Curry. And the media that slobbers over him. He runs around the perimeter devoid of physical contact and gets the benefit of Thompson, KD and Green. He is a great shooter, but put him on a team in place of Harden (past teams) and Lebron and he would struggle IMO.

    2) Cockiness and entitlement of the Warriors fans. And Bay Area media.

    3) The "aw shucks" coach Steve Kerr. Kerr is a fraud. Passive aggressive. He is not Popovich.

    I can't stand the self-entitled jumped-up dirty a$$holes and their staggeringly hypocritical, equally dirty a$$hole coach.

    San Francisco? I love the city and we've been there several times. It was a favorite of my late parents, who knew it quite well decades ago. Dad first experienced the city while he was in the Navy during WWII, and had some stories to tell. Imagine liberty there in 1944! Crazy. :cool:

    Because:
    • they play beautiful basketball. Iso-ball what?
    • Draymond green is an all star and future HOF
    • Durant is a great role player, definitely deserves the mvp
    • Curry doesn't get as many calls as he should. Where can I get that mouth guard?
    • Klay Tomilson should have his own team. He's All-World defender
    • 73-9 baby. Best.Record.Ever!

    And Iguodala's post-made-shots face.


    In general the ARROGANCE of

    TEAM
    COACH
    FANS
    LOCAL MEDIA &
    SOCIAL MEDIA

    makes everybody so, so, so punchable.

    I get the competitive spirit, but when overdone it turns into insufferably condescending arrogance.

    One recent reason that irks me is that they couldn't leave it alone with "Death Line Up" No, that wasn't douchy enough so they changed the name to Hampton Line Up since it better suited their pretentious butt faces.

    i hated the warriors before they got good. since that game where we almost broke the 3 point record in a game and donkey smacked beverly in the face to make sure he didnt shoot a 3 (beverly and green wasnt very relevant during this time).
    I hate them because curry won a mvp over harden
    i hate them because green does all the talking and his teammates mainly back it up. put him in a team by himself and u can see his career going down the drain
    i hate them because durant is a p***y
    i hate them because kerr is a b****
    i hate them because "they're not even that good" (jk they pretty good)

    My friend's father is in his late 80s, from rural Tennessee. He enlisted and served in the Korean War. He says the only time he felt home sick was in San Francisco.

    Steve Kerr was a douche as a player and just carried that over to coaching. The dude has a big mouth for being the mouthpiece of his org.

    Mouthpiece chewing and fake tough guy posturing....AND the fawning of the press over this face of the NBA/ clean guy crap

    Donkey Draymond and his big mouth and dirty play.

    Zaza is the dirtiest player in the NBA.

    KD weak ass mindset in joining a 73 win team.

    The overall arrogance and attitude.

    Media fawning all over Steph during Harden's 1st MVP season.

    California douchey fans.

    I could go on and on....
