No, have to respect how they play, and Curry is great.

I don’t really respect the way they play.

They do play unselfish, but they kind of chuck up a bunch of BS that’s opened up due to moving screens.

And their style of play has ruined the game bc a lot of lesser players and teams try to emulate it.

Did they beat the Lakers?

If so, no.

Nah. Not Even during the Durant years. Just hated Durant


Draymond is annoying but he doesn’t bother me like some posters. So, no. I’d much rather endure a dynasty by them than some other teams

Nope. They built their teams organically.

Not really. They did draft well, but got lucky with Curry ankles and cap explosion.

Everything they have done after that has been extremely inorganic with the Durant signing, Durant sign and trade, paying a billion in luxury tax, etc.

I think Klay is cool and I don’t think Curry is a bad guy. But other than that, frick em.

Like the Bowen Spurs, I respect the hell out of the organization and 90% of the squad, but in this case, Green’s presence ruins it….but not if they are playing the Lakers

I actually probably despise them more than the Lakers because they are good.

We have the Lakers pick though.

When we play the Warriors I would give heavy mins to Jose just for the satisfaction of him and Herb aggravating/wearing out Steph for the entire game.

I like them alright as far as dynasties go. Way more likable than the Bulls, Lakers, etc. I do hate Draymond though

I feel like if they do it successfully, the lack of respect should be for the lesser players trying to emulate them, not for them who actually pull it off at a high level.

The luxury tax is specifically because of the organic growth. Of their most important/highest paid players, all but 1 of them have come through the draft. Not sure how you get more organic than that.

They drafted well for several years. But a lot of unnatural things happened after that.

Boogie MLE, Durant Signing after going 73-9, Sign and Trade Durant (which was reliant upon him accepting that). That all parlayed into a Deangelo trade, Wiggins trade and high draft choices.

They’ve been extremely lucky. And part of that was they were willing to stoop to the absolute lowest level and play with Durant for 3-4 years which disrupted the balance of the league and reset their future since they were able to trade him after rupturing his Achilles.

I like some of the players, but I don’t appreciate the shortcut nature of their “team building” the last 4-5 years.

If we would’ve gotten prime Durant for free this offseason, that would’ve rivaled what the Warriors did 4-5 years ago, but not quite bc we just won 36 games, not 73.

Also, don’t forget they nearly buried our franchise and booked us a one way ticket to Seattle by sending us Uncle Alvin for 4 seasons.

Yeah Warriors largely lucked into the perfect storm with Durant, and I cant blame them for taking that swing(and succeeding).

Any franchise would do the same. So I dont really call it a shortcut. They signed him in FA cause they had the fortune of Curry not yet becoming Curry(along with injuries) and other guys still coming up. All in a year where the cap exploded and bevore new rules were implemented.

I hate what it did to the league for years, and hopefully that was the last of a dying era of Super Super-Teams

and green throws the ball away trying globetrotters.

in regular season they are arrogant and show off.

I do not like green. but
I accept that when he was out mempshis caught them for 2 seed. soon as he returned they won.

if he wasn't so integral they would have sent him to Detroit last week.
he needs therapy.
not just this incident.
cost them a finals series over lebron green being tossed for g6.
he plays a lot vs much much bigger guys and he acts insane to compensate.
