Brown, meanwhile, finishes the 2016-17 campaign with checks from both the Cavs and Warriors as well as an National Basketball Association title at his former employer’s expense (literally).
Golden State Warriors secured the title by winning Game 5 129-120 at Oracle Arena to take the series 4-1, the team’s second in three years.
The Warriors enjoying their championship win, June 12. Will he bring in more role players as he did with three-point ace Kyle Korver in order to build a better challenge for the Warriors in the NBA Finals?
After a night of celebrating the Golden State Warriors latest National Basketball Association title, fans snapped up victory shirts and hats Tuesday, while Oakland crews were busy hanging championship banners along the parade route.
“It would mean everything”.
That all spells trouble for the rest of the league, who saw the Warriors capture a title in 2015, win a record-setting 73 games the next regular season before Durant moved to the Bay Area and the team became a juggernaut. All the pieces that we have are important to the equation of winning a championship and competing for a championship every single year. It is a business. But like I said, we’ll all figure something out. “You’ve got people of every race, color, religion, creed, whatever, and everybody’s just coming together and loving this team”.
An average of more than 20 million fans watched the 2017 NBA Finals, and a large portion of them were probably just as impressed as Durant. “And when Steph turned that corner, I think it was after Christmas Day, when he turned that corner, we became nearly unbeatable”. “It looks like it was easy, but guys like Steph Curry welcoming him and kind of let him shine – it worked out like it should”, Myers said.
“We’re obviously just getting started, this is something that we want to continue to do”.
You couldn’t help but wonder what Kevin Durant was thinking last night as the clock ticked down to the NBA Championship. Along with Curry that day were Iguodala, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson.
Kerr said he was proud that the team “came back from the heartbreak of past year”.
“Once it hits zero and you see that excitement in their faces, it’s nearly like in a lost world because you have no idea what to do”, he said.
They’re plotting how on earth they can beat a team that’s got all the ingredients for a dynasty. Well see what happens. “Like I said, tried to be myself, be aggressive and sacrifice as well”.
“It’s hard to compare to what that feeling was the first time, but it’s pretty darn close”, Curry said.
Warriors guard Stephen Curry said, “You’ve got to call Kevin Durant a champion now”.
Coach Steve Kerr told KTVU-TV he was proud that the team came back from the heartbreak of losing last year’s championship to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
“Somebody asked me about (going to the White House) a couple of months ago, like a hypothetical, if the championship were to happen would I do it and I think I answered “I wouldn’t go”.
“I still feel like that today”.
