A Warriors fan talkin about nikkas playin football on defense is so fukking comedy. Klay the only defender on y'all team that played clean defense.

The type of shyt Draymond, Iggy, Bogut, GP2, even Steph got away wit on defense is crazy specially against bigger teams. And that's just defense let's not talk bout the illegal screenin they was allowed.
You also believed this about the Warriors during the season -
Warriors

4-1 without Steph this season
0-2 without Draymond

:sas2:

24 points on 23 shots for Steph he don't get the same looks and his scorin efficiency without Draymond. Been happenin whole career uncomfortable truth and context bout his legacy that nikkas ain't ready to have or have ball IQ to comprehend :hubie:
Steph 0/6 :picard:

Steph lowkey been cooked since 2nd half of last season. He still good but clearly not prime no more. He liable to go off for a 30-40 piece but he not consistently a superstar no more. His supportin cast is great though like his whole prime so people will overlook it. I think they 4-1 without him this season too.
Warriors 5-2 without Steph now.....

nikkas still talkin bout supportin cast cause they in denial about current Steph ability:mjlol:

Losses to OKC by only 4pts and Clips who they lost to twice wit Steph too..... Warriors have more than enough to make a run. This is one of the deepest supportin cast Steph had. When Steph bring it it show.... But he not as consistent as he used to be then team get blamed by his dikkridas when he play :flabbynsick:
Warriors this season

13-15 with Steph
5-2 without Steph

:lupe:
So you should probably just sit this one out.

:hubie:

It'll just be interesting whether OKC has learned from their late game mental midgetry.

Of the 4 conference finalists, OKC drew the mentally toughest opponent and it brought out the best in them at the end, whereas MIN got the easiest draw with a gimped Warriors and still looked far from impressive in beating them.

Shai gets a lot of credit for playing with a loaded team. He’s good don’t get me wrong. But you can’t drop him on Charlotte or the Wizards and expect a huge improvement in win total. He’s a scorer but doesn’t put his footprint all over the game.
Been there done that. 22-50 Daig's first year. Team was in complete rebuild. 2nd best player(JDub) is a 3rd year out of Santa Clara. 3rd best player(Chet) has a year and half experience because of injury. Cason Wallace is a lottery pick but in his second year. Then you got second rounders and G-Leauge players(Dort). Dudes just be listening to what armchair analysts say.

Team went with Shai. His transformation to All-NBA 1st team player, MVP candidate is when the team took off. Last year record was a complete surprise took the league by storm. Youngest team ever to get 1st seed last year, and 2nd youngest this year. No real experience. That's why they're considered babies. Someone like Jayson Tatum was battling Bron in the East since he came in the League.

Loaded team is a bunch of young dudes who were developed by Daig. Defense is excellent, but the Offense is overrated because of Shai and the turnovers they create. Thunder didn't even really break Nuggets zone, they just turned up the Defense and got to running with fast break points.

Wherever nikkas need to be told on
OKC vs MIN

NYK vs IND

ECF & WCF bout to be 🔥

Question tho, would Malone have made a difference in this series or would it be the same result for the Nuggets 🤔
Honestly, I don’t know if we would’ve made it this far with Malone. Some shyt was really off which is why they made the switch in the first place.
