Curry, Durant committed to keeping Golden State on top

Sheldon Glasgow, who has been living in Oakland for 10 years, said he wasn’t angry the Warriors were moving.

Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob says the team hasn’t decided yet if they would go to the White House to visit US President Trump.

“We put in everything we had, our heart, soul and sweat, everything”, he said.

Durant said he doesn’t consider the Warriors a superteam because their team was assembled through draft picks outside the top five.

Draymond Green stayed on the court in a game that featured three technicals on one play 3:08 before halftime.

Instead, the Warriors began to erase some of the haunting memories inside an unfriendly arena, coming through in the clutch, building confidence and laying the foundation for what happened in Game 5. The Sixers traded Andre Iguodala before he won Finals MVP with Golden State in 2015.

Durant came back late in the regular season from a 19-game absence with a left knee injury, then dealt with a tender calf early in the playoffs. But the Finals still saw average viewership increase – up from an average of 20.2 million past year to 20.4 million.

“To have teammates that encourage you, that lift you up, that’s what we all need in life”, he said.

At the start, Curry took a back seat to let KD get comfortable.

But what’s the issue with calling yourselves a superteam?

According to Nielsen live-plus-same-day data, the short series averaged 20.4 million viewers on ABC, making it the most-watched NBA Finals since 1998, When Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls scared up an average audience of 29 million viewers during their six-game set against the Utah Jazz.

And then there is Kevin Durant.

The Golden State Warriors made a strong case to be called one of the best teams in National Basketball Association history after a near-perfect run through the playoffs resulted in their second title in three years. The Eastern Conference champs believed going into the series that they could rattle the star-studded Dubs, that the 67-win juggernaut would burst when pressured. The NBA champions have one of the best collections of talent in league history.

It’s not that every other team in the league is awful. Adding Durant was the icing on the cake.

“I hear all the narratives throughout the season that I was joining, I was hopping on bandwagons, I was letting everybody else do the work”, Durant said. “[When] my son grows up, and I believe the legacy of our president is going to be what it is, I don’t want him to say, ‘Hey Dad, why’d you go when you knew the right thing was to not go?'” he said. “So for us to be able to do it in front of our home crowd, something I’ll remember for a very long time”.

After joining the Warriors in July 2016 – a decision which caused shockwaves in the National Basketball Association world among talk of a GSW “super team” – it took Durant just one season to win his first championship.

“I mean, come on, you got a bunch of guys who are talented and can shoot and pass and dribble, and they’re unselfish”, Kerr said. Throughout the finals it was iterated many times by commentators that it wasn’t that the Cavs were playing at B-grade but rather that the Warriors played at A++ grade and so even if they played at A or even A+ level it wouldn’t be enough to topple them. After the Cavs scored an incredible 121 points per 100 possessions through the first three rounds, Golden State shackled them with their two worst offensive games of the postseason. game three was their fourth-worst offensive game of the 18 they played in these playoffs and game five was ultimately determined by a 21-2 Golden State run in which the Cavs scored just once in a stretch of 11 possessions in the second quarter.
