We have a no ego approach right now. No one cares who the team leader is because we're playing as a team. Everyone's role is important right now, Even Nick Johnson's. Let's go Houston.
Cause he knows deep down inside that hardens a better player than him. Curry was a scrub at fiba this summer while hardem was the team leader and got all the coaches praise. Harden say at the round table pue king off the hill with PG and KD while curry didn't even get the invite. He's salty but I don't care lets win this thing on Thursday. I really belive we can do it. We've had a lot of success against them in the past and they have the same team when we did. They hate us we hate them this is documented From three years ago. Wack ass green said we were their biggest rivals last season. Now they act like we're a jv squad. Well fact is they are good but not that good. They shoot 3s and excute very well but with solid defense for 48 minutes. We can take them out. We didn't build a 16 point lead off luck. We got this.
Seriously guys, if that had been a guy who doesn't even play for GS sent to shake Harden's hand, most people would call the Warriors a classless organisation etc. Yes it was disrespectful and I personally don't like it, but it's not that big a deal. If we want to send a message, just do it on the court and you best believe this is about Harden vs. Curry. You think it isn't? Ask the 94-95 Rockets if that series was not Dream vs. Admiral. Had Dream not taken that personal and taken it upon himself to lead, we would not have advanced, period!
In soccer we have the team captains meet before the tip-off, better way of showing respect and handling sportsmanship imo.
bwahaha. To hell with Curry. Next time send out a wet mop with Joey Dorsey's jock strap for the captains shake.
Curry is weak, if that pissed him off! Its called competition, NBA Players today are way too sensitive. Give me a break!
A little bit sportsmanship won't hurt anyone. LOL@ all these I-don't-care-why-should-they-care posts. On the other hand, our feelings were hurt so badly that some random guy tweeted anything negative about us, or ESPN guys picked Warriors to win the series. "Why does everyone hate us?" "Why don't we get any respect?" Sending captain to shake hands before game 1 of WCF is normal. Sending a bench player is not, no matter whether that guy is a saint or loved by every single person on this forum. Was this overblown? Yes, but this is Internet age, thousands of people will follow a stupid video clip on youtube about some random guy falling. Rockets simply need to do a better PR job.
I thought it was pretty funny. Its an obvious troll job by our great Organization and I praise a good trolling.
