    The lesson is that championships don't have asterisks. They all count the same. The media will never accept us but they don't get to put an asterisk on anything. This is the reason why when we win we need to get LBJ. If possible he will come here for the same reasons. We are going to catch **** no matter what we do. The only reward is winning. We NEED to win. LBJ NEEDS to win. He can't do that anywhere else. The best way to shut the media up is to lay waste to the NBA with a dynasty. The city needs it and as we all learned with Yao and TMac when you don't win a sad tale quickly vanishes forever.

    Yup, 2015 GSW absolutely has an asterisk. The starting point guards for ALL FOUR of their opponents were injured!!

    Not really. The Warriors don't really hear about beating a Kyrie and Love less Cavs in the finals.
