Why are the Warriors so unlikable?

    Easy they have 4 All-Stars and they have a smug attitude. If Durant, who couldn't Win a Chip on his own with Westbrook, was not on the team Lebron would've been the one with the B2B titles.

    Coming from a fan of the most unlikable team in the league...how ironic.

    I'm a Houston Rockets fan, but I'm not a blind homer.

    The issue are 2 main things:

    1. Teams that seemingly manipulated the system or cheated the game:
    For the Warriors, getting Durant after he nearly knocked them out of the playoffs.
    For the Patriots, the combination of Spygate, Deflategate, etc. that have created an resentment that they just cheat.
    For the Yankees, they just had so much money they could buy every great player and create an all-star team.
    For the Heatles, they manipulated free agency similar to create an all-star team.

    2. More than that though, is attitude either from the players or fans of arrogance and then belittling the rest of the league. It is the same arrogance that royalty felt towards commoners in Europe and elsewhere. That no matter what, we are superior. Some of this is really from a segment of vocal fans from those cities like NYC, Boston, and San Fran. But some is definitely from the team itself, like how Curry, Draymond, and Kerr answer questions and comment on other teams, the Heatles free agency press conference, forcing the longstanding court issue in Deflategate, etc.
