Why were people so mad? People said it was because it wasnt fair to add KD, but at the same time, despite the hype of the splash brothers, most people also didnt regard Curry highly, always trashing him. And why do people hate Curry and mistake his joy as arrogant? Dude is obviously just a charming cute nerd. It's the same crazy logic of men towards women; make them shut up and break up their dangerous gatherings, yet also women are stupid and aren't to be taken seriously and belong in a kitchen. Which is it now? Are they too dangerous and threatning positions of power, or are they irrelevant? Is KD +Curry unfair, or is Curry a bum?? People always hated the Dubs and only now are willing to credit Curry after these last Olympics now that he's over the hill. Too little too late, bandwagen jumpers - they'll immediately revert back to crazy logic as soon as the Warriors glimps as a possible playoff danger. I always hated people and their stupid false logics. Sorry for trauma dumping. But i am genuinely interested in why people were so mad about the underdog small curry showing greatness and always being humble and working for the team. Sure he has annoying antics but he's a nerdy kid who survives amongst all these butthurt macho bigs, so let him have his joy.
Not to mention, they were playing in Oracle which was the loudest arena in the league. Those 3rd quarter explosions + the noise would make teams struggle to defend or even create any offense
@@jdapaul1351I was in Oracle when steph had 45 with 8 threes once. You legit are surprised whenever he misses. Watching him launch, you would swear that the ball looks like it's going to go in.

@@MrSkeleton131 KD always been an incredible help defender. He really got to showcase how he can anchor a defense with mostly defensive scrubs on the Nets, which is crazy considering his age and injuries at the time.
Yeah for sure. These runs dont happen without shutting down your opponent multiple possessions in a row. Curry and Durant could step up in the big moments defensively, they just knew they had to spend their energy on offense.
I started watching basketball when curry won his first mvp and watched so many great teams and championships from warriors. Here's hoping for more from them. They have a legitimately good shot at winning this year.
Good shot lol. They got rocked hard by the Cavs. The team beside their aging core has no depth and no playoff experience. Either a big trade happens at the deadline or Curry probably asks out at the end of the season.
@@hawkname1234 This. In recent years the warriors have not run roughshod over the rest of the league. It's because the rest of the league have caught up to this style of basketball. Everybody's spacing the floor now. Drop coverage is no longer the default defensive scheme because a good shooter will have a field day with your drop coverage. And every team has good shooters now.

The same person after he left ended up criticizing this style of play. I guess it's a perfect example of not knowing how good you had it till you're out of that situation.

You do such a good job of breaking this down and it is the hidden sneaky thing about this team. They weren't really the three point shooting team people thought they were. They were amazing from 3, but it was a decoy for the rest of their offense. All these teams trying to "play like the warriors" must not have really watched the game and only thought analytically. What made the warriors good was the unpredictable nature of the offense. They could score from everywhere on the floor. A team like the Houston rockets was going to the paint or the rim. They were dead last in midrange scoring % of their offense in 2017. However, the 2018 version of this warriors team was top 5 in midrange scoring. This big 4 was so misleading. It was closer to a decade ago now but we're still learning things about their offense. They weren't just bombing threes. It was so much more than that.
I mean I can answer the prompt pretty succinctly. They had 3 all time great offensive players in their absolute primes with another player being one of the best distributing power forwards as their floor general. Pretty simple. But I still love the breakdowns.
7:43 let that sink in for those of you fools that think that the Warriors messed up the league. It was Daryl Morey that told James Harden and Cp3 in 2018 to run high pick n rolls while literally have ALL their other role players stand out on the 3pt line to COMPENSATE for the greatness of steph klay and kd and shoot MORE 3s than them, that messed up the league
Having 2 top 15 players of all time. With a super solid squad behind them was just a cheat code. Even if you take out steph and KD. This team with Klay leading it would still make it to the play offs
Basketball fans an nba fans are two different things. Nba is no longer basketball it is a entertainment league that is based on/resembles basketball but has been bastardised so much it is no longer basketball
Yeah, I was pissed off of this team because they destroyed every team they faced nevertheless the way they play ball is something else. It's beautiful, even though it hurts watching it when they're doing it against the team that you're supporting.
I tell people all the time when they say Steph isn't a point guard that there are actions that ONLY WORK in certain scenarios with Steph that generate wide open dunks. The thumbnail is a perfect example. Running that FROM THE LOGO is hilarious. You wouldn't even bother setting a screen that high with anyone else. Sending two at steph from the logo is basically conceding a free dunk because the free guy is so far away from his switch after like one screen
In my 40+ years of watching basketball that 2017 Warriors were the best team I've ever seen. I don't give a damn about eras and nostalgia. No team in the past or present could beat those Warriors in a series
KD was the FIRST Big Ticket free agent the warriors has EVER got. Still haven’t gotten a FA at that caliber since KD. Andre was near his older years and didn’t impact a team like KD did at the time too.
And when when they won their 4th ring that solidified their stance even more, Curry won a ring without KD, that's what folks don't talk about, he won 2 with him and 1 without him, while staying with the same team! If he not over LeBron then people are just insane!
@SantaClaraFellabad boys pistons has a little edge because of their disturbing defense but if gsw could adjust their gameplay faster than them it would be a different outcome
The was like Mind the Game Podcast before that. The analysis of each play was impressive and gave me a much better understanding of how their offense was so effective.
Crazy how time flies. It doesn't seem like this was that long ago. I remember when their run first started in 2014. At the end of this video, it really shows just how much time has passed because you see Andre Iguodala holding his 10 year old son 20:42 who is now 17 years old and taller than his dad at 6'8.
It's the Duncan/Ginobli/ Parker Spurs and this Splash Bro/Durant team...the most beautiful basketball I've ever witnessed. Just beautiful. Everyone touches the ball. Everyone sets screens. Everyone cuts. Ball never stops. Every play feels like a design play even when it's not. Spurs didn't have a walking cheat code Seth Curry though.
Dog, look at how Steph sets screens. THAT'S SOMETHING NO OTHER POINT GUARD DOES! He will give up the ball, run to the corner to take his man there, then fake a cut to step into the three point line so he can create room in the corner for a cutter coming from the opposite side of the floor, SCREEN BOTH HIS MAN AND THE CUTTER'S, and it's a wide open three every time. Steph Curry can create wide open looks anywhere on the floor with his mere presence warping the defense around him
The addition of KD’s Presence in the court also made Curry and Thompson get so much Open Looks. If KD is out in the line up, Curry can make plays on his own or set-up an open look for the shooters and open man as well. This Line-up is literally deadly
This is the talk when people say Stephen Curry was the best player. Kevin Durant got a lot more freedom and space because Curry was the better and more feared player. Don’t let people change history
I have been a warriors fan since Run TMC i always like Tim Hardaway and Baron Davis, i remember when we had folks like Nate Robinson and Ish Smith, Al Harrington, Stacks, and that we believe squad, i dont think people realize how much off an intricate part of the warriors office centers around Draymond Green, he has become one of if not the most accurate and efficient passer in the NBA. Just look at him throughout the years and how much of a chemistry he built with Steph and Klay, he knows exactly where their spots are and he knows how to pass it to them, whether it be a direct pass or a bounce pass. Draymond is the Warriors as much as Steph is.
When people are matching them with the 96 Bulls, people put matchups on them. The reason why they are so dangerous is because you cant put them in an iso on offense unless you switch everything which opens a lot of lanes and either a KD mismatch or Curry on a big.
Curry said in that JJ interview that in his opinion, game 1 of the 2017 Finals was the absolute peak of skill and competition. It's not hard to see why with how ridiculous this team was and how amazing Lebron had been that postseason.
This offense is the mold that all other teams are working off of today. High volume threes to create space for easy lays. No one does it as good as what we see in this video, but that's what they emulate.
I never had a problem with KD going there because I knew it would be great basketball being played. Instead of not hating them and actually watching them play, it was just as fun to watch the 16-17 Warriors as the 15-16 Warriors. Plus they got extreme hate from the Lebron and Cavs crowd which didn’t help.
No one could stop them because they were the greatest team of all time with the #1 and #2 shooters of all time, and then added the best scorer of all time. It's not rocket science.
@@galaxyyedits If KD never left and they're all healthy. They wouldn't win just that year, they would've won many more. And they would be in the finals every year.
I've been a warriors fan since the 80s so I've seen the good, bad , and the horrible days, we could just walk in the game in East Oakland we were that bad lol 😂😂😂the A'S were the only thing good raiders left to LA in 83; who won the super bowl the first year there and has not ever won again . I'm happy I was around when they did when Golden State and the Athletics
THANK YOU!!! For posting this. I forgot how amazing this team was when Looney saw zero court time!! When draymond got to play alongside a center and 7 footer at the same time. And when draymond gets a T, another 7 footer comes on court. We had Zaza a real center and a Durant 7 footer. We had a Mcgee 7 footer, David West!! NOT LOONEY. for some insane reason, Looney gets credit for 3 rings, and these guys are completely forgotten about. I am so sick of dumb warrior fans praising looney. And we used to have actual able body centers on the roster. Now we have podz and looney and franchise Is a joke instead of a dynasty
Start at 4:27. Blake Griffin reaches out with his elbow to strike Curry in the jaw, turning his head. At the other end Griffins violence episode continues, Draymont is pulled down and gets a foul called. Maybe a Griffin preemptive strike prior to retaliation. Draymont can’t deal with it, but the strike on Curry was viscous.
I know your channel and I think you should cover how Steph is willing to play defense despite the people saying he's liable on the defensive end It would be better if you compared him with Lamian Dillard
The way Steph, Klay and KD look so young is amazing
Kerr too. He looks so much older now.
Draymond too lol. He has so much gray in his beard now
U sure? They look similar to me, ofc a little younger but look similar
That’s how time works
And they had young legs!

Curry said in that JJ interview that in his opinion, game 1 of the 2017 Finals was the absolute peak of skill and competition. It's not hard to see why with how ridiculous this team was and how amazing Lebron had been that postseason.
This offense is the mold that all other teams are working off of today. High volume threes to create space for easy lays. No one does it as good as what we see in this video, but that's what they emulate.
Seeing speights not on the warriors make me sad even now lol
We loved you mo buckets
Thinking basketball the GOAT
This video is 🔥
Best team ever and I think Steph has a very strong case to be the best offensive player ever
I never had a problem with KD going there because I knew it would be great basketball being played. Instead of not hating them and actually watching them play, it was just as fun to watch the 16-17 Warriors as the 15-16 Warriors. Plus they got extreme hate from the Lebron and Cavs crowd which didn’t help.
Don't forget that Curry deferred to Durant and "held back" his own offense.
The NBA really dropped his video, that’s dope
No one could stop them because they were the greatest team of all time with the #1 and #2 shooters of all time, and then added the best scorer of all time. It's not rocket science.
Only if KD never left this team this will be a contender even in this era this deceaion was such a big mistake😢
Tell us you didn’t watch the NBA before 2022 without telling us you didn’t watch the NBA before 2022
@@galaxyyeditsLOL your comment is hilarious but i understand what he trying to convey though
@@galaxyyedits If KD never left and they're all healthy. They wouldn't win just that year, they would've won many more. And they would be in the finals every year.
@@galaxyyeditsThat still doesn’t take away the potential of more rings earned.
thinking basketball content!!!
I've been a warriors fan since the 80s so I've seen the good, bad , and the horrible days, we could just walk in the game in East Oakland we were that bad lol 😂😂😂the A'S were the only thing good raiders left to LA in 83; who won the super bowl the first year there and has not ever won again . I'm happy I was around when they did when Golden State and the Athletics
No one can stop the 2017 warriors cause they have the DPOY(Dangerous player of the year) Pachulia
There is no way in hell the 96 Bulls or 2001 Lakers can beat this team in a 7 game series.
Who’s guarding Shaq?
@@Thanosdidtherighthing no one needs to guard him. Let shaq get 60, but the combo of steph, klay, and kd will be averaging 90. It's a wrap
Hope Ben Taylor gets a big fat check well deserved
THANK YOU!!! For posting this. I forgot how amazing this team was when Looney saw zero court time!! When draymond got to play alongside a center and 7 footer at the same time. And when draymond gets a T, another 7 footer comes on court. We had Zaza a real center and a Durant 7 footer. We had a Mcgee 7 footer, David West!! NOT LOONEY. for some insane reason, Looney gets credit for 3 rings, and these guys are completely forgotten about. I am so sick of dumb warrior fans praising looney. And we used to have actual able body centers on the roster. Now we have podz and looney and franchise Is a joke instead of a dynasty
This year Cavs looking like a Warriors in the making 👀🔥
I forgot how good Zaza was in the warriors system. Can we get him to suit up for the '24 dubs? He's already at the games!
Start at 4:27. Blake Griffin reaches out with his elbow to strike Curry in the jaw, turning his head. At the other end Griffins violence episode continues, Draymont is pulled down and gets a foul called. Maybe a Griffin preemptive strike prior to retaliation. Draymont can’t deal with it, but the strike on Curry was viscous.
Please do more videos analysis like this💯💯
This video could have been two words long
👏 Kevin 👏 Durant
Lmao dray getting techs in the past present and future
I know your channel and I think you should cover how Steph is willing to play defense despite the people saying he's liable on the defensive end
It would be better if you compared him with Lamian Dillard
Steph is a liability. But D is mostly effort. He is not luka or harden.
Let’s go thinking basketball (goat)
didn't realize this is the official NBA channel.
Basketball IQ makes a difference.
Doc Rivers face after curry hit that three. 20:33😂😂😂😂😂
Literally the last 3 previous MVPS on one team KD 2014 Steph 2015,2016 with the Defensive player of the year Draymond Green 2017
1:45 that's exactly the point Steve Kerr used to make during interviews.
Is This means They Are the Greatest Team of All Time 🔥
Gotta do a video on that mathcup they had with the spurs in 2017 and how things shifted when Kawhi got injured.
