The Warriors are likely the NBA's next dynasty, but I many don't realize how this has been years in the making, and how much luck it took for them to get where they are today.

Today I'm discussing the incredible luck it took for the Warriors to get the roster they have today, starting around 2007. Sometimes everything goes your way, and that definitely happened for Golden state.

Dom2k Everyone hates on golden state, but to build this thing with no top 5 picks (except KD) is incredible
Dom2k they only got lucky acquiring KD but other than that they worked their way starting from the bottom
Dom2k i think you're forgetting about the salary cap increase of 2016 that led to Gsw having the money for KD's deal without trading Curry Green Thompson Iggy or Livingston
I remember the 2006-07 warriors with Jason Richardson, Steven Jackson,Matt Barnes, Montei eills,Mike Dunleavy,Baron Davis,Al Harrington
I make NBA content if anyone is interested.
I've been saying for the longest that Golden State (even before KD) was essentially what every franchise dreams to be like. Built from good picks and trades. They're a real life My GM.
Steve Kerr played under Phil Jackson and Popovich, and was the GM for the Suns during the D'Antoni Suns era so he knows a lot about how to run successful teams. The warriors are kinda a mix of the best parts of the Jordan bulls, the Spurs, and the Nash-era Suns
I started paying attention to Curry when he lit up New York for 54, i was like god damn thats the 12 year old lookin dude from Davidson??? Then Kobe last good game (when he tore his Achilles) when Curry was matching him blow for blow, i was telling people he's going to be great and everyone said I was tripping. Now i say he is great and get called a bandwagoner lmaooo funny how life works
Kinny Boy Few true.....I remember going around school talking how this lightskin pg lit up New York....that's when I started watching him
Kinny Boy Few same that game at the garden was unbelievable
You know I'm glad Curry didn't hit that shot in the game Kobe was injured, I'm so happy he missed it.
Kinny Boy Few for me it was the time when faked the fuck out of the birdman twice (the 2nd one by doing the rondo) during his rookie season. I became a fan of his that day. Imagine the feeling watching your favorite player trying to develop more into his game but kept getting hurt for consecutive years. My friends kept laughing at me everytime i played 2k against them using the warriors.
Sarken So???
Monta was amazing to watch, one of my favorite players ever
I concur
Monta was cool. He wasn't anything spectacular imo. Baron Davis in his prime on the 2016 warriors coming off the bench would be heavenly. If he would be willing to take the cut.
People don't realize how long warriors fans suffered but always showed up to support them .
People don't realize that 90% of warriors fans can not tell u the starting pg before curry
Patrick Patterson Fax
Patrick Patterson ah you're dumb
Patrick Patterson starting pg Before curry isn't better then curry so it dont matter
Patrick Patterson or literally any fact before 3 years ago.
"I'm not a bandwagoner!" "Who was coach before Steve Kerr," "uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
Sucks I live in the Bay Area cuz I can't even be a fan of my local team without being called a bandwagon. Even though I have been a fan since their orange Jerseys and terrible teams
Chi Chi forget what everybody else say be you
Chi Chi Fuck em it's not your fault that the warriors are the successor they did everything right building through the draft and spending the right amount of money to get the free agent they needed to gel with the players they drafted look st the cavs everyone remembers how bad they were and though they drafted kyrie they still weren't a fan of his until Lebron came back that proves how fake they are all together
Chi Chi The only bandwagons here are the haters.
Bay Area Warriors fans are the only ones I respect
Lmao i live in the Bay also (not a warriors fan whatsoever) and while for the most part there's always been fans and high attendance, the entire fucking bay area hopped on the bandwagon. That comes naturally with winning tho so Im not surprised.. but theres a good percentage of people out here who hadnt seen or been to a game before 2014. Alot of them didnt even know Curry's career was nearly over after 2012.
Wow what a great story. I witnessed the Spurs series but this really made me realize how special it truly was
Really steve Kerr watched the nba from 2004-2007 as a broadcaster...became the suns gm in 2008-2010 ...got to the conference finals in 2010 after rebuilding a team that had shaq into a good 3 point shooting team and then losing to la in 6. And then became a broadcaster again for 4 years and then became their coach after watching film and being around the best coaches especially miami and San Antonio and he changed the warriors culture...lets.not forget he played for Phil and popovich and learned from them ...kerr is also 8-0 vs popovich in 2 different playoff series since 2010...he swept him twice...something the suns couldn't do in the Nash era aka beat spurs 4 times in 7 steve kerr did with dragic in 4...
I still can't stand how people hate on Steph so much with no reasoning... just hating on greatness...
Same applies to LeBron...
A.K.TM lebron is a diva though
lebron has never complained of a series being "rigged"
Jonathan Isaac he has complained about absolutely everything else though
Jonathan Isaac neither did curry it was his wife
Jonathan Isaac You better take us to the playoffs this year.
I am a laker fan but I love seeing how well the warriors are doing. They built a team exactly how it needs to be. Through the draft, signing key vets and forming a culture with no egos. Those who hate the warriors dominance are very hypocritical because I highly doubt they were complaining when the Lakers, Celtics, bulls and spurs were dominating during their time. If the Lakers don't win it all, which is definitely unlikely, I want golden state to keep shoving it to the haters and the hypocrites.
lol key vets ???? they added iggy and cupcake DurBitch 2 all-stars and Finals MVPs lmfaoooooooooooo......larriors superteam is a fraud faxx lol.
David James you sound like a fool. Hating ass bitch
Thing is in the 00s Lakers didn't have superteams. I didn't hate the Warriors until they signed KD, I was rooting for the Cavs at the time because of LeBron. But I didn't hate the Warriors, I just wanted to see LeBron get better. And I'm a Lakers fan as well.
Sarken the 2000 Lakers had shaq and Kobe 2 top 5 players, then you surround them with the perfect cast. Then.in 2004 they add Malone and Payton when both of them were averaging 20 ppg. Try again
Sarken You root for Lebron yet you don't mention how lebron been in 2 superteams for the past 8 years
I'm a Spurs fan but I honestly still like the Warriors, they're fun to watch and I feel like they have passing in there system like we do, except we have more of an emphasis on slowing down the pace they turn it up
@o7 You are a real NBA fan my bro, I'm a bulls fan but i love watching the warriors play they are such a great team and I know what KD did was wrong, Its his decision he's a grown man and he can do whatever he wants. Anyways they are a good NBA dynasty and I enjoy their play.
Wilmington's Finest I don't think what he did was wrong. If he really left Russell and he didn't even tell him himself about it then yeah I agree that part is wrong but really there wasn't any reason why he shouldn't have gone to the Warriors
o7 TBH you're right KD has every right to go there, If I was in his shoes I probably would have gone to GS as well It's the best situation for him and he wasn't going to win a ring anywhere else. He made a good career decision cause no NBA future hall of famer wants to go down as one of the greats that didn't win a ring, the whole point of the NBA is to win a championship
Wilmington's Finest exactly. People don't talk about guys like Charles Barkley in the same conversation as the Tim Duncan's Kevin Garnett's and Dirk Nowitzki's because he doesn't have a ring. When KD retires he'll be in the same conversation as Lebron and Larry Bird
Exactly and IMO Kawhi is the 3rd best player in the world behind LeBron and KD, I could see him winning multiple mvps and going down as one of the greatest as well.
man thats why you are the best bball youtuber out there, most people are just embraced in hate and fail to appreciate the greatness that GS is bringing to basketball, team play, talent amd sacrifice. in 2015 GS had no business being a 67 win team amd going to the finals, thats why their championship is well deserved, Cavs were already the superteam.
in 2016 they totally had it but...bad luck, Curry was injured and i dont get how haters try to deny that.
I agree with everything you said except them being lucky. Yes they definitely had some great luck but it was their front office that carefully picked the players and worried more about a system rather than getting the flashy players. Just look at teams like Cleveland and Orlando who chose the superstar players and just ended up trading them or them being a bust.
The Warriors were one of the NBAs worst franchises, but they always had great fans, so they deserve their success.
ADAJ3
They had great fans, then got even more bandwagon fans
Adam Leon nah it's called kids being introduced into basketball BECAUSE of the warriors and how they play. Stop hating, fuckboy.
ADAJ3 w
ADAJ3 the cavs are the worst Franchise and have the worst fans
Hellno Hellno Partially true. All the winning teams have bandwagons but Warriors' ones are the worst. They constantly contradict themselves, believe that jus because you can shoot a three you're an amazing player and constantly make excuses when they lose or when one of their players get embarrassed. Its so fuckin annoying. Most of them were jus calling Durant a choker now they say he's the greatest player of all time...
To be honest, everybody remembered the warriors in 2016 as the team who blew a 3-1 lead in the finals against the Cavs and was the biggest disappointment in NBA history. But nobody remembered that Steph had an ankle injury, Draymond got suspended and Bogut was sent off due to an injury. Why is it when The Warriors won against the Cavs in the 2015 Finals, everybody was complaining about Love's and Irving's injury and how that affected the Finals and all that bullshit while completely ignoring the fact that there were also factors affecting Warriors blowing a 3-1 lead. After that 3-1 lead, it felt very horrible to be a big Warriors fan and getting reminded for the 3-1 lead. All of this is coming from a Warriors fan, a true fan and not a bandwagon. Yeah! That's right, stop calling us bandwagons.
How did I even get through complaining with just swearing a bit😂😂😂
Its a big difference between losing your 2nd and 3rd best player the entire series and losing you 3rd best player for 1 game and you 5th or 6th best player. And Irving was played injured aswell. If your team played without draymond and klay against a healthy cavs it would be a massacre
Paulo Resende but love is trash in the finals every game
Paulo Resende not a big difference when Draymond was their best player that series. They lost their only true rim protector too in Bogut. Kyrie I'll give you, but he ain't better than a healthy Curry. 2017 proved that. Love is a literal nonfactor. No explanation needed. Gets bullied by Draymond and Cavs fans petitioned to have him benched. He's been better this year tho. He'll be a factor in the 2018 Finals definitely.
It's true but at the same time Love opens up the floor so Lebron could do his thing and it's not easy playing well against Draymond.
And people forgot really quick how a linup like dellavedova shumpert lebron tristan tompson and mozgov took the series to 6 games. And iguodala was finals mvp.
Well the warriors do have a really good training staff that progresses players well
LaVar Ball so can I join them dad
lonzo Ball the lakers are still the best and you can lead them to the nba finals
LaVar Ball ok thank you dad You're right I need to stay in my lane
It’s pretty ironic how luck and injuries started this warriors dynasty and looking now after the 2019 finals it’s what ended them from building up from scratch to now chasing stars to maintain their status
Curry is a top ten pg all time already I don't see how anyone can hate the man
Caleb Dickie if he was on my team I would probably like him but he made the NBA softer and more about hitting threes. It's great for him and his team but I miss flashy dunks and big men being a big part of the game but it's also how he is so nice like the NBA with Kobe and before felt like everyone had beef on the court which is why he won't go down as the greatest if he wins he makes it look like a cakewalk
Caleb Dickie He revolutionized the game. No one in today's NBA can stop him but himself. He is already the 2nd greatest PG of all-time behind only Magic and without question the greatest shooter of all time
Matt Money true
Denden if he's top 2 all time Westbrook is top 7 all time.
Goatbrook maybe so.
1. Magic
2. Curry
3. Big O
4. John Stockton
5. Steve Nash
6. Jason Kidd
7. Russell Westbrook
Warriors and spurs are like the same. Great managment but still lucky at the same time
Lakers too
Nah lakers are just a wealthy team buying superstars in free agency because of the limelight of L.A
Thank you for this video. As a long-time fan of this league, it really has taken me aback as to how meteoric the Warriors' rise has been. What people also needed to understand was that the Warriors acquired three of their stars from the draft (Curry, Thompson, Green) and none of the three were top-5 picks in their respective drafts.
wow from the title I thought this was a Mike korzemba video omm😂
Jadine Anderson I'm reading this high af like wtf that's says dom2k😂😂
Jadine Anderson me too lol

Not enough capital letters
I'm from the Bay Area, and I've been a Warriors fan ever since I started watching basketball, back in the 2012-2013 season, and I've been saying literally ALL the things that Dom mentioned in this video for years.
We here now Warriors gone win this year 2018 back to back.
Robbo1.0 finally win back to back
Great video. It's nice to see how the Warriors turned from losers into a great team.
I'm not really into basketball but I did grow up with the Bulls, Lakers and Spurs and I really liked the Warriors unselfish style of basketball.
Looking forward to seeing how far the Warriors can go.

take out the word potential bro!
They already a dynasty for the next 99 years
the same was said about the heat bro. do you not see a pattern with these superteams
ryanr20091 the heat were completely different
ryanr20091 3 stars vs 4 they a dynasty
4 prime allstars vs 2.5 prime all stars cause wade aged too much

Some things just have to bounce your way, but the Warriors took advantage and made the moves necessary for them to get here today. I always knew Steph was special since college and WHOLEHEARTEDLY believed that Monte Ellis was holding him back. And as soon as they got rid of him, he began showcasing how special he could be in the NBA, but he had to overcome the ankle issues. In the mean time the Warriors made some excellent draft selections. And that’s what hurts some of these teams we see today. When they’re put in the position to evaluate talent, they suck at it. The Warriors just selected the right group of guys like in the old days.
I remember those days, where we were the favorites of the league, and the young team on the come up, it was so exciting AND there were no haters
Just a thought: it's all Patrick Beverly's fault. If he didn't injure Westbrook, OKC could've had a rematch against the Heat. If he didn't injure Curry, the Warriors would've won the Finals in 5 games with the healthy MVP and KD would've stayed on OKC.
The luckiest team known to mankind kind is clearly the nets as they drafted the goat himself Brian Scalabrine
I’m kind of early let me think of a joke...

I'm from the Bay and I never thought I would ever see the Warriors be this dominant. I'm just happy to see it.
Officially my favorite video from you. The perfect story by the perfect TH-camr. Especially loved the 2016 part of the video. People hate this team so much tgey refuse to acknowledge that the Dubs definitely would've closed out Cleveland as they were just the better team when both squads were healthy. They really are the luckiest sons of bitches in the world and that's no knock to them 😂
Great video. A lot of people complain about the Warriors superteam phenomenon but if they actually knew about basketball history they would know that such teams have been constructed many times before. The difference is, they just didn’t work. The warriors landed the same initial set up as the nets superteam, the two lakers superteams (most notably 2004 which nobody can argue was “fair” regardless of how old they were) and others But unlike those others the W’s clicked. Ironically, the haters that complain about the Ws are the same people who will turn around and tell you they’re not really that good and that blah blah blah team from the 80s would dominate them- contradicting their own point of course.
Keep up the good work Dom love these videos
Thanks for making this vid bro as a warriors fan we've been garbage for so long and the hate has been unwarranted
Warriors will win the 2018 NBA Championship
no shit
Stephen Lin duh

Just here for your daily reminder:
Paul Pierce said he could guard Lebron and then got 49 dropped on him by Lebron the next game
LeMagic James who won tho
Hasan S. The Heat lol. Im referring to the 14 playoff series against the Nets
I remember when JJ barea lockdown Lebron in the 2011 finals good times
Reminder: Prime LBJ vs elderly Pierce. Not much to be proud of
A. E. Cooper Pierce still said he could guard the future goat
that's what I been thinking since I watched em play in 2013 before the rings I knew that this team of a bunch of role players were destined for greatness. that's what the gsw team is (besides Durant n cousins now) a bunch of role players who just happened to compliment each other so well currry, Thompson n green none of them were top 5 picks in any of the drafts curry was 8th overall Thompson was like 9th n Green was 2nd round 40 overall it just shows that basic is a team sport sometimes really talented teams lose to teams that just have really good chemistry!!!
Steve Kerr Turned this franchise around.
As a U of A fan, where Kerr played college ball, I will definitely admit he had a truly horrific experience happen to him when his father ( a diplomat) was killed in a terrorist attack overseas. But besides that point in his life, his professional career as a player and coach has always been somewhat lucky. He played with Michael Jordan's Bulls, and received probably the most wide open looks that a player could get. Then he played with the dominant Spurs, and kind of the same deal. Then as a rookie coach he walked into a group of guys that Mark Jackson laid the foundations for. Then after their first championship season, he missed the first 43 games and they went 39-4 without him. Then this year he missed time during the playoffs and they swept their way thru. I'm not saying he doesn't put forward the effort or commitment, but I have to admit this guy finds himself in pretty lucky situations. I mean in all honesty I'm sure almost every coach in the league would look like they were excelling if they coached Golden State. At least that's what it looked like for Gentry and Walton. But that ms just my two cents.
Alex Castillo Thank you, whenever I see the Warriors and their success I always remember watching the 2012-2013 Warriors getting better because of Mark Jackson!! He developed all the players into what they are today!
Alex Castillo Marks problem was that he wasn't really a good offensive coach and he made the morale in the locker room bad. Plus he wasn't too fond of gays, which is a no no in the Bay
Aaries Harris Im pretty sure him not liking gays was the main reason he was fired, which sucks.
Mark Jackson was a dick to the players from what I heard. He'd play mind games with them and set them against each other to try to motivate them with negativity. Check out the story about him bullying Festus Ezeli. I don't think that kind of stuff works and they probably got him out just in time. Their ball movement and movement of players without the ball also improved dramatically once Kerr took over.
And here they are back to back champs...damn
16-1 Greatest playoff record of all time numbers don't lie 🏆🏆
Does 15-1 equal it ?
Cactus Jack Guy idk is 16 equal to 15?
Jahlil Okafor Do you realise that they played 17 games?
I Feel Like Yeezus well, I feel like LA could have gone for 16-1 as well, seeing as the game missing is just a first round match
vro my bad im tripping. ill take the L
Broo I was always wondering how and where the hell the Warriors came from. Great video.
I don't think they were lucky in anything! Curry, Klay and Draymond are all players who werent superstars when they were drafted, noe thought as going to be as great of the players they were. Coach Mark Jackson helped develop Klay into the great 2 way player he is. Draymond always had the leadership and attitude, just needed the opportunity. Curry looked like his career was gonna be over before he even started, but he kept working and strengthening hia body to be the caliber of player he is now.
Javier Grant yeah it wasn't really luck lol they all worked hard
Javier Grant Thank you. Someone that gives credit to Mark Jackson!
That's why it was lucky. They got players who happened to develop into stars
Javier Grant they got lucky that draymond got as good as he did and how curry suddenly developed to a star
Curry was amazing in college
2011 warrior Fan Strong💪🏾💯 only questioned our destiny in 7th grade when steph played only 14 games the lockout season and hurt his ankles then took off the next season he came bck leading GS to 47 wins& the 2nd round in the playoffs no bandwagon in my blood !💯🗣 good video Dom u showed mad respect on how they came frm nothing to Something !🤷🏾♂️
Do the same thing for the Sixers bucks and timber wolves in a few years
M.C the Sixers weren't really lucky tho they were just bad and got good players in the draft
and lakers soon
and theyre doing that on purpose haha. The Warriors weren't bad on purpose. They were just bad. The 76ers literally tanked for 3 years straight to get these picks. And now finally (barring another injury), it might be time to see all the talent theyve put together. Even as a Warriors fan, Im excited to see Embiid, Fultz and Simmons all play together. It might take awhile to gel, but they could be awesome. The way Simmons plays really shows flashes of Magic.
Great story, I have followed the Dubs since the.80's!
This is what's gonna happen with the Sixers with the 3 young drafted talents, Dario on the bench being our Iggy and LeBron joining when he realises the East is ours
TheOneUndOnly lol
Not gonna happen. 76ers are a bunch of hungry players. Not a pass first team.
hey its 2019 sad news bruh..Dario was traded to T'wolves...lebron signed with lakers...you didn't own the east...kawhi killed you at game 7...embiid cried..simmons still don't have a jumpshot...Jimmy thanked philly fans as if he wanted to say "im outta here"..
I wasn't alive for the Warriors of the 1970's. And when I began watching the NBA in 1990 they were a joke. They always had a couple of good players, even HOFers. Seeing what they have become has been really cool.
Edit: Oh and another thing. They went from having terrible logos and uniforms to the classic look they have now.
What if EVERY NBA TEAM moved the ball like the Spurs and Warriors...
Would the NBA be better to watch?
Would there be more competition?
What if gs hadn't signed kd? Would there be competition
Patrick Patterson it's not their fault their good. If u had the chance to sign KD wouldn't u?
Patrick Patterson yes I would love to see the warriors and the thunder battle It out
Yes I would, but it shouldn't be allowed, I know how it sounds but it's not fun to watch one team win everything, it's boring. When the regular season is more exciting than the post-season you know something's wrong.
Sarken Bro how is this a problem now? Timberwolves have a possible super team, Cavs has been a super team, Miami was a superteam, Kobe was on a superteam, SA was a superteam, Celtics, MJ's chicago, etc. This shit isn't new. All it takes is great players, a good coach and chemistry.
Yo man you broke this shit all the way down... respect man
"Ankles made out of Klay"
Watching this video again I just realized how much dom2k has changed in a year and a half.
yo it's bout time someone realize how the team came together
I completely agree with you Dom. I first noticed the Warriors also during that 54 point outing for Steph against the Knicks and the Spurs series. I was rooting for the Spurs and was thinking "Man, I'm so glad that both Steph and Klay don't go off in the same game." That's honestly when Steph became my favorite PG in the NBA
And the egos thing was on point. A prime example to look at was the 3Js in Dallas in the 90s: Jason Kidd, Jamal Mashburn and Jim Jackson all had huge egos and eventually wouldn't pass the ball to each other. It ended as quickly as it came
Dom can u make a video on the 2018 season predictions? Like if u agree
Warriors win the championship. done.
^
I fucking wish they didn't sign KD.
3-0 for the Warriors already.
Don't sleep on these young players man. Can't wait to see how these young teams look this season.
There wasn't any luck dom it's just these other teams are plain stupid passed on Curry, Klay, and Draymond warriors did a good job scouting rest of the league did a bad job paying attention
Lil Dagga especially the timberwolves that passed on Curry twice 🤦🏻♂️
Erasmo Gomez smh 🤦🏽♂️
He explained how a lot of it was luck
He said the same thing to GS. I'm sure he would of said the same thing to any team that wanted him ahead of NY knicks. NY Knick would of gotten him if he have drop a few more slot down which is where he wanted to play.
Its luck that they passed on them. None of them, not even Curry was projected to be as good as they all have individually become.
No lie that clip you showed when new management said they wanted more flags, I remembered watched that clip in 2008 and it getting clowned. made me have a flash back
Dumb luck... thats an odd phrase. I think what happened in part was they were allowed to do exactly what they wanted. Which usually doesn't happen. Other teams are usually able to disrupt a long term strategy. But So much of this was strategy. They just never got derailed ... and of course a bit of circumstance the took advantage of. But luck is a lofty claim
THE NBA STORYTELLER Well
Stephs injuries that led to his smaller contract
The injuries that led to him being slowed in the playoffs (leading to eventual loss)
Constant misfortune on the Thunders side
Being able to draft Klay and Barnes
There was a lot of good planning on the Warriors side sure but there was definitely luck involved
THE NBA STORYTELLER jjuîn
+ THE NBA STORYTELLER that's what i just wrote, not luck but simply choosing and doing what is best despite circumstances
Nicholas Pagano Don't get me wrong, those are definitely amongst the worst, but THE worst draft picks? When you consider that MJ was the second pick, that kinda beats those...
CancaBanta Michael Jordan was actually drafted 3rd not 2nd.
Great perspective. I wish the organization got more credit for what they have been able to pull off.
here for the open
I remember back in 2010 watching Stephen Curry play for the first time against the Toronto Raptors. The game came close, but Stephen Curry was on straight fire during that game. Not just scoring but make some really crucial plays that allowed the Warriors to beat the Raps that day. Watching him play that day I saw some great potential within him not just a player who had one of those good nights. I'm not surprised seeing what he has accomplished and the type of player he's become. I'm not a Warrors fan and have grown tired of seeing them in the finals for the past 4 years but I do have respect for Steph Curry.
Dom you gonna grind at the park in 2K18?
division100 Most def, looks crazy this year
Dom2k What position and type you making
Dom2k how's the AI for 2k18? Is it as horrific as 2k17 or can I buy it and play without having to contemplate killing myself
This was a great video growing up in Oakland and being a warriors fan in the early days was hard right was pissed when they traded monta Ellis away but all the moves where made for a reason and we had to just “trust the Process”🤷🏾♂️😂
That team with Baron Davis was inspiring. Too bad they start the tanking after that great upset
E J they actually won more games the following season after the upset
akeem Brown yeah but they went downhill after that season
Yes
akeem Brown they fail to surround Davis with great talent which was great though even with the fact they could make a championship run if they could pull it off. Still, it was a great decision as that gamble lead to Stephen Curry and a new era for the franchise.
On this ny’s day i count the warriors as one of my many blessings...so many miserable years to success i never could have ever fathomed 🍾🥂🍾
The only reason the warriors are where they are at right now is because the wolves picked Johnny Flynn instead of curry
Great video! Although luck had its role, cant rule out the crazy good management they had and still have.💪
warriors for 2018 and 2019 champions
Its possible

I'm the biggest Cavs fan but I got crazy respect for the Warriors (besides KD cuz he wasn't there during the struggle, his punk ass just hopped on the bandwagon)
Your OG what the hell your never supposed to give warriors credit and anyone that likes the warriors are bandwagons 😂
i respect kd more for his move
zero. You like snakes tho
I want to report you for spam or abuse of a cupcake, lol. Poor KD man any one of us would have done the same thing, and been stupid not to! If you can reach it take it!
Poor guy now he has to live as a cupcake snake. He's paying a hefty price for total world domination. Ok maybe it's a small price but it's not free.
Nothing in life is fair. Godzilla wouldn't be shit if he was six feet tall. Little two inch arms.
Your OG Let's clear the air here kd was a free agent he made a choice end of fucking story. you wouldn't have a problem if he joined the cavs instead of the warriors would you ?
I've been a WSU fan my whole life, and hence a Klay fan hard core ever since he entered the draft. That's why I cheer Golden State. Can't lie though, I love Steph too. Also same reason I love Celtics is Aron Baynes WSU center.
Wanna hear a joke?
The nba2K18 prelude
Jalen Alvarez Vasquez facts 😒😂
😂
Damn Dom!!! This is one of your BEST videos!!!! Great job!!
Warriors without kd were so fun to watch
Great! noticing how the pattern goes I can't wait for my Nets to become champions
There was lots of strategic planning and very little luck involved.
Sure, but there's also no strategic planning that makes Thompson and Green fall in the draft.
Warrior Fans. Let's BOOGIE our way to our 3rd straight title. OH YEAH!!!!! Hopefully he will not miss too much time on the injured list.
Where my fellow Warriors fans at?💪
DUB NATION !!!!

here since 02 my dude
Any true fan knows it was a LOOOONG process
7:38 Hmm Warriors up 3-1....doesnt sound right
That story was perfectly put together
Notification Squad where are you?
Never thought about it. That Cleveland and Golden State won each other’s championships in 2015 and 2016. But, yeah, I agree with you.
The Warriors are the luckiest team. They are lucky that curry injuries didn't keep happening and that he got better. They are lucky klay got this good. THE are lucky draymond green became a all star player after being drafted in the second round. And they are lucky that KD is a snake 🐍
Great video, everything is on point. I also agree that they won each others titles as well.
about time we have a new dynasty. lebron had his dynasty for 7 years. time to give someone else a chance
zero Dynasty what kind of dynasty did Lebron have for 7 years besides the 4 years he had in Miami ? His early years with Cleveland was wasted carrying that franchise they did nothing right if he was smart he should've stayed in Miami at least pat would've build a better longer lasting roster around him to compete for years instead of a 2-3 year window to only compete
Golden St. Did it the right way. Much respect to them, adding KD is just overkill. As a Spurs fan myself I can see the influence we had on ya.
Curry deserves his rings. He was once trash. Now hes winning rings
1HotDawg because of kd
1HotDawg he's good I respect him klay and draymond but Kd should've stayed in okc
Random Ass person yea they went 73-9 without him. They didnt need him
He was never trash. He was just injured a lot. He was an amazing shooter and dominated in Davidson. And when he came into the league, he still was a great shooter, but wasnt fully grown and never was healthy.
He was never trash wtf
The potential was there before Kerr, but his system nourished it better than anyone could. I thought the Warriors were headed to the shadow realm without Mark Jackson.
Yall can keep saying cavs should of won with kyrie and love healthy but what happened when both teams were healthy? Yup warriors were up 3-1.. only after dray got suspended and our only rim protector got injured and also iguadala was having back problems, AND curry was banged up all playoffs did the cavs dominate. So you tell me what you think but obviously the warriors would of won 3 in a row.
As Dom makes this video unsuspecting what will go down during the 2018 free agency
Honestly, unless you live in the Bay Area, if anyone became a fan during the 2013-2014 season or after they are just bandwagon.
Sachi Patel most people who like the warriors are bandwagon fans who were once fans of other teams like the Lakers Rockets etc
Reed Jenkins yeah, especially since now they have, like he said, the death lineup.
Sachi Patel trust me Lakers will be a winning team again and watch how all of a sudden everyone is a Laker fan again
I live in the Bay Area and I have my entire life, but I'm going to stay loyal to my kings.
TRUUEEEE im from 707 Vallejo. Most of these "new fan" of warriors were used to be LA lakers fans, specially the filipinos. Im pinoy but it bugs me knowing that i have those kinds of friends lol.
Even the Warriors lost KD, they'll still be around since they got DLo. The big 3 are here to stay for life
