    Agree. I took it a few days ago. It's a good alternative to betting the Warriors to win the title due to the juice.

    Reminiscent of "The Dictator" they literally shot down the opponent with illegal screens, 3 seconds, and a period of mugging fouls with no consequences.

    Luka pulled a Harden.

    As a 26 year long NBA fan I appreciate the warriors and what they have done. I’ve watched Jordan, Akeem and Kobe. My top three(no particular order)Steph has moved up high up there. So glad I’ve been a fan to watch it all.

    Too bad this wasn’t a Suns vs Warriors finals.

    Jalen Brunson gives off Kemba Walker lite vibes.

    Good small offensive player, but not someone you want to throw a lot of money at.

    Who would've thought that Curry would make it back to the finals before KD. Especially after how both teams looked last season, when KD's Nets were the 2nd seed and had Irving along with Harden.

    A lot of people thought the Warriors window was closed. Hell entering the season I thought they were a 4th seed at best. But sort of like the Duncan and the Spurs, Curry and the Warriors are back.

    steph curry is overrated, how many times has klay, iggy, now Poole abd wiggins bailed this guy out. He is a quintessential front runner. Whether he scores 10 or 30 the warriors can generate offense without him.

    SF Warriors fans throwing stuff at Charles Barkley whilst on live telecast. They need to cut it out. Such a bad look. Some stupid people think they are entitled to do stupid **** like this. Its similar to those fan incidents with NBA players.

    Where is everyone who said Klay sucks and is nowhere as good as Manu Ginobili?

    GSW back in the finals and Klay just scored 32 on 50% 3 pt shooting. Led the entire team in +/-

    thats your opinion and you’re entitled to that. However I believe your a little bit bias. You can’t take away nba 3 point king. You also can’t take away the warriors record with Steph and without Steph. 6 finals appearances(same amount of times as MJ), that’s not an easy task.(not including lebron which was on super teams and in the east when east sucked arse)
    Also the people you named shows your true knowledge because you left KD, Livingston and Draymond off your list who “bails” him out.
    You don’t win a basketball game with 1 player, this is a team sport. Harden proved that. Luka just proved that. That’s why I believe your opinion is in the less then 1% community of basketball fans. Not just homer fans.

    I love the Rockets and have been a die hard fan since 1993. So I will always root and hate the guy the rockets are facing. However I really also appreciate the art of the game and really enjoy watching all NBA games. So my view point comes from a true appreciation for the game and not based on some loose take with zero facts. Mine contain several.
    Weak bro.

    GSW should enshrine KD. He gave them 2 rings, and then he gave them Russell when he left cuz he wanted to play with his buddy Kyrie.

    Yeah, I've thought about the Spurs comp. They have a well-oiled machine. Their core sticks together and age quite well. They even have a dirty POS in Draymond just like the Spurs had Bruce Bowen.

    It’s a team sport. They get paid to play just like Curry does. They’re supposed to help!

    ROFLMAO!

    Could b him coping. I think gsw is great but I'm not gonna praise Curry skills cause it's feels disgusting to do.
    Will acknowledge that smug dude when he retires though man is a sniper
