Colin makes a great point when he said " he thought that the stars/core was a bit too old and the young guys were not quite ready ". This exact point is why I believe that this is Steve Kerr's best coaching job. Especially in the Finals. I also believe that Andrew Wiggins was The X factor in The Finals. His defense was amazing ( I'm certain Draymond and Igoudala is schooling him) and his scoring was always timely.

Great hearing from TMac about Jamal Mashburn. Lost in all the hoopla from that 1992 Kentucky vs Duke game, was Mashburn’s unreal performance which kept the game close. When you look back at the rosters, it was Mashburn against 3-4 future pros.
He already is tho if he wins another ring or 2 he’s top 5 if he won at least another fmvp. He’s in the 9-11 range rn. Another 2 rings he’s easily goat pg and 4th best all time
@@soulzy3596 Neither one is Better than Steph and he’s still going on one team and not going where superstars are to get a ring. This man is top 10 and that’s my final answer
GSW has a great culture, they're gonna be title contenders for the next 3 years for sure. Might even be extended if the young guys become elite offensive and defensive players while Kerr is still coaching them.
Always liked TMac, until he said Curry wasn’t in the same class as the top greats. And his reasoning was because Curry didn’t win FMVP and he won with KD as teammate… this is coming from a guy who NEVER won a playoff series in his entire career and he was inducted into HoF? What?!?
Same here. Always liked him but this over emphasis on FMVP came from jerks like Skip B, Max, Nick W, etc. Almos all players asked about it say they think its b.s. The legacy of Steph was fine before he got the FMVP. The 4th Ring is where it is at! Besides the style of ball they play lends itself to sharing, selfless play. Steph deserves it espec now cuz he sure was in this series....
Yeah but respectfully he was talking about the top 10 greatest players of all time.. Unless T-Mac somehow includes his name on that list I think his point is worth at least contemplating
I mean he not top 10 and he played and knows the game so he has his opinion Barkley never won and he got opinions for days lol but tmac also one of my fav players so I’m biased
Thing is they were posting up Steph but it wasn’t working, they had to find another way to play offense. When Steph was guarding them last night they went 3-12 for a 25%FG AND HAD 6 turnovers.
Exactly the Warriors and Steph adapted to that. They set traps for them and it also stagnated and took them out of their offense because they were hunting him. Steph worked on his strength for this exact series. He's not the weakness he used to be anymore.
Steph Curry got same mentality Jordan had, doesn't care about big city, doesn't need to be in Miami or LA, he creates his own ambiance! impacts winning, more than a shooter, playmaker, knows how to read the games, knows how to win, knows when to score and control the game, some players had this natural gift, LeBron, Magic, Bird, Pippen, Kobe, Chris Paul, Ginobili, IT, Jokic
I think Milwaukee vs Golden State with a healthy Khris Middleton would have been an insane matchup to watch in the Finals. Still think the Warriors would have won in 7
Thank you Tracy McGrady for doing a one on one league, been suggesting this for NBA all star weekend, but even better as a league, can't wait to see it!!!
i'm steph's fan, and for me he got nothing to prove that he is indeed one of the greatest of all time. but i believe that winning this is solidified his greatness in the eyes of entirety of basketball fans. i mean a lot of people are kinda hard to admit it, and i don't know why. and for me the "top 10 greatest" should be change. not the list but the title. because all the player in the top 10 has a great achievement and impact on nba, so it's kinda weird to remove any of them. but curry is without a doubt opening the door of their level. i mean he change the nowadays nba for sure. many people think it's taking a worse turn, many people say otherwise. but the fact that he made all the team are shooting 3s even the center are telling us how great his impact is. well it's kinda not right to change it to "top 11". well we can say that they're called "hall of legends/champions" or whatever it is, so when in the future another player reach their level, they can be put in it without disregarding the one whose already in that list. and this is the bad things about the nba, one bad performance and people are start to doubt and criticize. just like Tmac said, tatum performance isn't disappointing. it's a known fact celtics did a great job through out the eastern conference playoff, they even do great in game 1 and 3 in the finals. yup they do it inconsistently, but that doesn't mean they are bad, espescially tatum. it's their first finals, ofc it's taking a toll on their performance. just like a lot of past and active player said, it's different atmosphere in the playoff. so i believe, if they stay together and solidified their team in the future, they will be a hard team to defeat.
Lol 10 plus 3s a game compared to what other great 3pt shooters were allowed to shoot. The warriors were desperate so they gave him the biggest green light ever
Themost dumbest thing a person could post...You act like he woke up from a dammm coma...smh...That's a slick racial dogg whistle... If he was white would he have been well-spoken and articulate...
Nice Very nice interview Colin Tmac was my hero and my favourite player he could give you the most serious and legit answers because he's a scoring machine who could also facilitate he he played so smooth than everyone else
Lost my respect for T-mac, if you think Steph had to get a FMVP to solidify himself, you're crazy. The warriors play team ball, and Steph is the most unselfish player in the league. If he wanted to get 4 FMVP's he could have. Tbh he should've had 2 already, but stop with the FMVP talk. He doesn't play hero ball, he plays how the game is supposed to.
COLIN IS ONE OF MY FAVE SPORTS ANALYSTS COZ HE'S SO COMPOSED AND DOESN'T INTERRUPT HIS GUESTS! HE DOESN'T SCREAM! I ADMIRE HOW HE HANDLES HIS JOB! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Tatum’s game is similar to Durant where they are iso focused and have to score off the dribble far to much. Warriors have great shooting but execute in the half court and secondary transition with lots of cuts and layups. Durant’s first year at GS he bought into the positionless back cutting and screen away game. The media loves hero iso ball and doesn’t fully value motion oriented team ball.
Seem like the only time the Celtics had success was when everyone was attacking steph curry , but I noticed once bigger players guarded Tatum he struggled Jaylen had to worker harder but he still did his thing brown was the best player this series for the Celtics ,
Wiggins doesn’t need to spend the same amount of his energy offense and defense like Brown and Tatum do. Wiggins is the 4th option when Steph, Klay, & Poole are out there.
Golden state and Steph adapted to that strategy though and it backfired. They got way too hunt Steph happy and it took them out of their offense, stagnated them, and set them up for easy traps. Steph also held up way better than they expected he can't be hunted like he used to be because of his strength now.
You talking about game 3 when Steph was in early foul trouble (solely based on complete phantom fouls being called on fouls 1 and 3)? They took full advantage of Steph that game as he was forced to play passive. Outside of that, he foiled their plans to hunt him down all series. Held his ground
@@Johnny-xj5qu facts! Yet people make that same excuse for Marcus smart lol. Fouls stop you from being able to defend aggressively. Especially when you're the teams primary offensive weapon and when you pick them up early.
When? He’s a one time finals mvp. Lebron should have won 2015. And Durant clearly was the better player and reason in 2017 and 2018. curry had more points? Why because Durant dominated already and was the focal point. Casual tiktok fans like you need to stop forgetting facts and everything on a week to week basis. He won his finals mvp this year because he dominated. And that’s fine, he didn’t win the other years and that’s also fine. He’s a 4 time champ, that’s what matters.
Correct. Best player and most important Player on his team in 2015. What other player on the winning team and who scored the most points didn’t get MVP?
@@iwishiwasthomasshelby if klay shot better warriors may have swept them boys. Too many what ifs. T Mac is notorious for going against the warriors but i get he can’t go against his mentee jaylen brown
@@markteague49 let’s not go off topic and bring up irrelevant things to divert from the issue at hand. They went 4-2 with a guy who shot 25 shots at 30%. Put in a 48% shooter and they get 10ppg more every game. And some clowns said he’s a superstar. He got outplayed by even role players on his own team. He lost then the ring.
@@iwishiwasthomasshelby tatum definitely could’ve played better but I don’t think the warriors would’ve lost even if he played at a superstar level. I personally just take experience over talent in long series. Celtics should win one in the next couple of years. Tatum and brown both have to develop their games and they need a real PG
I remember Shaq saying that Tracy McGrady was on the same level as Koby. This was back in the day pre-injury. Shaq was talking about the supreme talents who play back sometime in the 90s after MJ had waned or retired. It made be watch him every time I had a chance. He was special.
TMAC and V Carter are two of the guys I want to hear from above all as they end arguments and know what's going on! Plus they're the nicest dudes of all time. You lucky Colin
people forget, steph still has solid few years left in his career. and this was even after a slow start in his career (until he literally changed the game to fit his style). he's becoming a better 2 way player too. he's not locking anyone down reliably, but he's got better defensive awareness compared to before. it's only gonna get better. i bet that once his career has ended, he would be knocking on top 5 all time.
Stephen curry is OFFICIALLY the face of the NBA and the best player in the league. He took over lebron's era. Jordan ( 1992) Kobe ( 2002) Lebron ( 2012) Curry ( 2022)
I'm happy for Andrew Wiggins that man went from being in Cleveland and then getting kicked out because of LeBron then trying to make his way in Minnesota and then from Minnesota to Golden State I'm happy for Wiggins and had Steph not had a good game last night that finals.mvp could have gone to Wiggins because majority of the time when Steph was off the floor Wiggins was putting in the work and poole
I think something that doesn't get mentioned is how much his ego probably was damaged being the no.1 pick and before he even touched the court you had the best player in the league Lebron come out and say i don't want you i cant win with you and you get traded before a single game played. Idc how much of an ego someone has that will effect most people. He was decent in Minnesota but hes not an alpha and didnt care to be "the guy" or want to be a no.1. Golden state fits perfect for his personality and fits perfect for his game. Steph, Steve Kerr and the culture bring out the best in everyone. When your best player is so unselfish and sacrifices personal accolades so that a KD can come and just do his thing and runs around non stop so everyone else can get open shots and easier looks. Draymond is basically the point guard so Steph doesnt nearly touch the ball as much as most superstars. He could easily go for more points and assists if thats what he cared about. When your best player makes it about you and not himself it makes everyone else buy in and want to play like that.
That’s a no. Chris Paul with lobs city got eliminated in the playoff, with Houston rockets got eliminated 2 years on the row by gsw, with the Suns also got eliminated 2 years back to back. He just fall if the series is too long.
It’s hard to putting him in the top 10, but he’s definitely in the convo and almost replace anybody in that top 10 if you wanted to. Curry is a legend y’all must see that
curry def in the top 10 , idk who has to go, but one has too lol, if anyone it would be wilt, no discredit to wilt by any means, but curry has solidified himself in the top 10 with mvps(one being unanimous), shattering records, chips, revolutionizing the game, greatest shooter of all time, so many other accolades, and being 6'3!!! who can you name that is at the level steph is with his size? i can't name anyone lol
That's the case at the end of every season. Hot take season ends for a few days While everyone spends time being hindsight prophets . Until the Hot Take prediction for next season begins , which will begin on Monday.
I disagree with Colin because Tracy would beat Kevin. KD is hard to guard because of that height, but Tmac was only 2 inches shorter, was quicker and had a better handle -- PLUS he had a deeper bag of moves. KD got clamped by Grant Williams

He already is tho if he wins another ring or 2 he’s top 5 if he won at least another fmvp. He’s in the 9-11 range rn. Another 2 rings he’s easily goat pg and 4th best all time
T-Mac did play with a "Draymond," which was Ron Artest, it's just that T-Mac got injured the year they were teammates
Oh yeah Artest. Also Shane Battier, the no stats allstar
Tracy-I didnt play with Shaq I'd win otherwise-Mcgrady
Thats crazy, i was thinkin the same thing. But they barely played together if any.
T-Mac needs to get into the announcer's booth. He has a great voice and great communication skills.
Tmac looking cool as ever still. Love this dude. Colin killed it with the topics/questions in this bit.
He's top 10 he ain't knocking. He opened the door and entered. Case close Tracy
He was already there in my book!!! Steph is a beast. He has continued to elevate his game all around.
Over who ?
Bron
Mj
Kareem
Kobe
Bird
Shaq
Magic
Duncan
Wilt
Russell
Hakeem

Shaq is clearly better aswell as hakeem .
@@soulzy3596 Neither one is Better than Steph and he’s still going on one team and not going where superstars are to get a ring. This man is top 10 and that’s my final answer
GSW has a great culture, they're gonna be title contenders for the next 3 years for sure. Might even be extended if the young guys become elite offensive and defensive players while Kerr is still coaching them.
Always liked TMac, until he said Curry wasn’t in the same class as the top greats. And his reasoning was because Curry didn’t win FMVP and he won with KD as teammate… this is coming from a guy who NEVER won a playoff series in his entire career and he was inducted into HoF? What?!?
Same here. Always liked him but this over emphasis on FMVP came from jerks like Skip B, Max, Nick W, etc. Almos all players asked about it say they think its b.s. The legacy of Steph was fine before he got the FMVP. The 4th Ring is where it is at! Besides the style of ball they play lends itself to sharing, selfless play. Steph deserves it espec now cuz he sure was in this series....
Yeah but respectfully he was talking about the top 10 greatest players of all time.. Unless T-Mac somehow includes his name on that list I think his point is worth at least contemplating
Preach he be on these shows acting like he ever won something.
Difference between shaq (champ) and a guy who never won
I mean he not top 10 and he played and knows the game so he has his opinion Barkley never won and he got opinions for days lol but tmac also one of my fav players so I’m biased
Thing is they were posting up Steph but it wasn’t working, they had to find another way to play offense. When Steph was guarding them last night they went 3-12 for a 25%FG AND HAD 6 turnovers.
Exactly the Warriors and Steph adapted to that. They set traps for them and it also stagnated and took them out of their offense because they were hunting him. Steph worked on his strength for this exact series. He's not the weakness he used to be anymore.
Steph Curry got same mentality Jordan had, doesn't care about big city, doesn't need to be in Miami or LA, he creates his own ambiance! impacts winning, more than a shooter, playmaker, knows how to read the games, knows how to win, knows when to score and control the game, some players had this natural gift, LeBron, Magic, Bird, Pippen, Kobe, Chris Paul, Ginobili, IT, Jokic
The thing about Tmac is, he's a very calm and intelligent with his responses. Seem like a real cool and laid back dude.
Knew the Warriors were going to win from the beginning of the playoffs. There was truly no one that could hang with that..
FIREPOWER.
I think Milwaukee vs Golden State with a healthy Khris Middleton would have been an insane matchup to watch in the Finals. Still think the Warriors would have won in 7
Cmon man! Everyone had the nets and the lakers. Easy to make predictions now! No disrespect to the great splash brother!
Lol no you didn’t
@@strawhats100 that's what I wanted to see as well.
T-Mac's beard is GLISTENING and I'm jealous.
Yes. Wonder what product he use.
Thank you Tracy McGrady for doing a one on one league, been suggesting this for NBA all star weekend, but even better as a league, can't wait to see it!!!
In 25/30 years, when most the ppl who were alive in the 50s, 60s 70s are dead Curry will be on the Mt. Rushmore of NBA basketball
i'm steph's fan, and for me he got nothing to prove that he is indeed one of the greatest of all time. but i believe that winning this is solidified his greatness in the eyes of entirety of basketball fans. i mean a lot of people are kinda hard to admit it, and i don't know why. and for me the "top 10 greatest" should be change. not the list but the title. because all the player in the top 10 has a great achievement and impact on nba, so it's kinda weird to remove any of them. but curry is without a doubt opening the door of their level. i mean he change the nowadays nba for sure. many people think it's taking a worse turn, many people say otherwise. but the fact that he made all the team are shooting 3s even the center are telling us how great his impact is. well it's kinda not right to change it to "top 11". well we can say that they're called "hall of legends/champions" or whatever it is, so when in the future another player reach their level, they can be put in it without disregarding the one whose already in that list.
and this is the bad things about the nba, one bad performance and people are start to doubt and criticize. just like Tmac said, tatum performance isn't disappointing. it's a known fact celtics did a great job through out the eastern conference playoff, they even do great in game 1 and 3 in the finals. yup they do it inconsistently, but that doesn't mean they are bad, espescially tatum. it's their first finals, ofc it's taking a toll on their performance. just like a lot of past and active player said, it's different atmosphere in the playoff. so i believe, if they stay together and solidified their team in the future, they will be a hard team to defeat.
TMAC on the HERD is everything I needed. Should be a NBA season regular FS1 guest.
Tmac said he needed to win an fmvp like he didnt get robbed in 2015 and was AMAZING in both 2017 and 2018.
He wasn’t robbed relax.
@Dwatson Iggy had BIG moments
The Mount Rushmore of 3pt shooters is Steph Curry four times
lol
yeah the D riding is crazy
Lol 10 plus 3s a game compared to what other great 3pt shooters were allowed to shoot. The warriors were desperate so they gave him the biggest green light ever
He's not even as good as his brother.
Check the stats, bruh. ✌️

Loved tMacs insight. Go Dubs! Go Steph!
Love T-Mac. He was a force, and his league sounds like a basketball fan's next binge watch! I'm IN!
Grant Hill was the one who was on the show this week and said Jamal Mashburn was a handful for him
Monster Mash was a beast one of my favorite players ..
Like T-Mac he had to deal with injuries.
Wow, I am really impressed by T Mac, I had no idea how articulate and well-spoken he is, thoughtful and even- analysis.
Themost dumbest thing a person could post...You act like he woke up from a dammm coma...smh...That's a slick racial dogg whistle... If he was white would he have been well-spoken and articulate...
And cool huh. Sitting there totally relaxed, spitting deep insights
Nice Very nice interview Colin Tmac was my hero and my favourite player he could give you the most serious and legit answers because he's a scoring machine who could also facilitate he he played so smooth than everyone else
Tracy Mcgrady your an Encyclopaedia of NBA ...love this guy man
Lost my respect for T-mac, if you think Steph had to get a FMVP to solidify himself, you're crazy. The warriors play team ball, and Steph is the most unselfish player in the league. If he wanted to get 4 FMVP's he could have. Tbh he should've had 2 already, but stop with the FMVP talk. He doesn't play hero ball, he plays how the game is supposed to.
The same could be said for LBJ
Big facts
@@davidwashington11 not really, LBJ won Finals MVP everytime his team won.
He believes height is a major criterion. That's why.
Over rated. He has Tatum have alone 100 turnovers. Lol he's scrub
This was a great insightful interview. Great questions.
I want to see how many points Stephs going to end up with.. especially the number of 3s.
Tracy has great insight in his dialogue with Colin. Good show.
GSW's defence is THE best (most under-estimated) in the NBA.
COLIN IS ONE OF MY FAVE SPORTS ANALYSTS COZ HE'S SO COMPOSED AND DOESN'T INTERRUPT HIS GUESTS! HE DOESN'T SCREAM! I ADMIRE HOW HE HANDLES HIS JOB!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
2:00 Andrew Wiggins was in his prime!!
The random Tayshaun Prince nod. I love it!
Tatum’s game is similar to Durant where they are iso focused and have to score off the dribble far to much. Warriors have great shooting but execute in the half court and secondary transition with lots of cuts and layups. Durant’s first year at GS he bought into the positionless back cutting and screen away game. The media loves hero iso ball and doesn’t fully value motion oriented team ball.
Best post on here. All facts!!
media just love dominant players on a winning team. they love a lebron, a ja, a luka, a kd type player on a team
@@queenvioletrichards3633 lbj and kyrie played iso
Dude. He shot 30% and you’re comparing him to Durant. Why don’t you say grant Williams game is similar to Durant’s?
@@iwishiwasthomasshelby what % did Durant shoot vs. Boston
Man, that's why I love Colin's work.
Andrew Wiggins... the ACTUAL Defensive Player of the year...
That argument definitely can be made.
He also was a Spur. TMac is 1 of my favorite players of all time. Kobe is my GOAT but seeing them battle was amazing
I'm a hater of GSW because they are so good especially in shooting three's but Imma put Steph in a mount Rushmore
For all those who have Lebron on the mount... It was short lived. Stephs career is far more impressive and it aint even close to being over! 🤣
😂
Luv that TMac gave a shoutout to Jamal Mashburn! dude was a pure combo of skill and nimble on court.
Seem like the only time the Celtics had success was when everyone was attacking steph curry , but I noticed once bigger players guarded Tatum he struggled Jaylen had to worker harder but he still did his thing brown was the best player this series for the Celtics ,
Brown didn't have wiggins on him either
Wiggins doesn’t need to spend the same amount of his energy offense and defense like Brown and Tatum do. Wiggins is the 4th option when Steph, Klay, & Poole are out there.
Golden state and Steph adapted to that strategy though and it backfired. They got way too hunt Steph happy and it took them out of their offense, stagnated them, and set them up for easy traps. Steph also held up way better than they expected he can't be hunted like he used to be because of his strength now.
You talking about game 3 when Steph was in early foul trouble (solely based on complete phantom fouls being called on fouls 1 and 3)? They took full advantage of Steph that game as he was forced to play passive. Outside of that, he foiled their plans to hunt him down all series. Held his ground
@@Johnny-xj5qu facts! Yet people make that same excuse for Marcus smart lol. Fouls stop you from being able to defend aggressively. Especially when you're the teams primary offensive weapon and when you pick them up early.
If you saw T-Mac in his prime, you know how elite he was. When Bron got drafted, I couldn't wait for their match against each other.
let's be real, Curry is a 2 time finals mvp. let's just fix that and be done with it lol.
When? He’s a one time finals mvp. Lebron should have won 2015. And Durant clearly was the better player and reason in 2017 and 2018. curry had more points? Why because Durant dominated already and was the focal point. Casual tiktok fans like you need to stop forgetting facts and everything on a week to week basis. He won his finals mvp this year because he dominated. And that’s fine, he didn’t win the other years and that’s also fine. He’s a 4 time champ, that’s what matters.
absolutely!
Correct. Best player and most important Player on his team in 2015. What other player on the winning team and who scored the most points didn’t get MVP?
@@honzomanzo7789 maybe he's talking about the year when iggy won it, when it should have been curry

Man said quick I need that commercial cause I got no game😂
Tmac doubted the dubs, doubted Steph. Stop doubting greatness
Yeah with his ridiculous comment couple days ago
No one could have anticipated Tatum shooting 30% and doing so shooting so many shots. Replace him with an actual star and the Celtics may have won.
@@iwishiwasthomasshelby if klay shot better warriors may have swept them boys. Too many what ifs. T Mac is notorious for going against the warriors but i get he can’t go against his mentee jaylen brown
@@markteague49 let’s not go off topic and bring up irrelevant things to divert from the issue at hand. They went 4-2 with a guy who shot 25 shots at 30%. Put in a 48% shooter and they get 10ppg more every game. And some clowns said he’s a superstar. He got outplayed by even role players on his own team. He lost then the ring.
@@iwishiwasthomasshelby tatum definitely could’ve played better but I don’t think the warriors would’ve lost even if he played at a superstar level. I personally just take experience over talent in long series. Celtics should win one in the next couple of years. Tatum and brown both have to develop their games and they need a real PG
I remember Shaq saying that Tracy McGrady was on the same level as Koby. This was back in the day pre-injury. Shaq was talking about the supreme talents who play back sometime in the 90s after MJ had waned or retired. It made be watch him every time I had a chance. He was special.
You actually misspelled The Mamba’s first name?😡 It’s KOBE, no Y!!
This was a great initerview, good job Colin! Get Tracy back some time!
Now that all the pressure is off Steph he about to go off!!! MVP next year

Stephen curry is OFFICIALLY the face of the NBA and the best player in the league. He took over lebron's era.
Jordan ( 1992) Kobe ( 2002) Lebron ( 2012) Curry ( 2022)
Favourite player all time, personally. Cool episode!
I'm happy for Andrew Wiggins that man went from being in Cleveland and then getting kicked out because of LeBron then trying to make his way in Minnesota and then from Minnesota to Golden State I'm happy for Wiggins and had Steph not had a good game last night that finals.mvp could have gone to Wiggins because majority of the time when Steph was off the floor Wiggins was putting in the work and poole
I think something that doesn't get mentioned is how much his ego probably was damaged being the no.1 pick and before he even touched the court you had the best player in the league Lebron come out and say i don't want you i cant win with you and you get traded before a single game played. Idc how much of an ego someone has that will effect most people. He was decent in Minnesota but hes not an alpha and didnt care to be "the guy" or want to be a no.1. Golden state fits perfect for his personality and fits perfect for his game. Steph, Steve Kerr and the culture bring out the best in everyone. When your best player is so unselfish and sacrifices personal accolades so that a KD can come and just do his thing and runs around non stop so everyone else can get open shots and easier looks. Draymond is basically the point guard so Steph doesnt nearly touch the ball as much as most superstars. He could easily go for more points and assists if thats what he cared about. When your best player makes it about you and not himself it makes everyone else buy in and want to play like that.
Plpppppppp
wow, what an intelligent, well spoken guest.
Imagine how great the Celtics would be with someone like Chris Paul. He could finally get his chip also.
Chris Paul has a curse on his shoulder 😂
That’s a no. Chris Paul with lobs city got eliminated in the playoff, with Houston rockets got eliminated 2 years on the row by gsw, with the Suns also got eliminated 2 years back to back.
He just fall if the series is too long.
It’s hard to putting him in the top 10, but he’s definitely in the convo and almost replace anybody in that top 10 if you wanted to.
Curry is a legend y’all must see that
If LeBron in ur top 10 then curry should def be there
curry def in the top 10 , idk who has to go, but one has too lol, if anyone it would be wilt, no discredit to wilt by any means, but curry has solidified himself in the top 10 with mvps(one being unanimous), shattering records, chips, revolutionizing the game, greatest shooter of all time, so many other accolades, and being 6'3!!! who can you name that is at the level steph is with his size? i can't name anyone lol
It’s funny how everyone picked the warriors to win all of a sudden after they clearly said it was no chance they win 😂😂😂
That's the case at the end of every season.

Agree...
Everything he said about Green I’ve been saying for years. Everyone team needs a Draymond.
I think a player needs to get out the 1st round before he is let into the HOF @ Tracy McGrady
Phenomenal commentary.
I disagree with Colin because Tracy would beat Kevin. KD is hard to guard because of that height, but Tmac was only 2 inches shorter, was quicker and had a better handle -- PLUS he had a deeper bag of moves. KD got clamped by Grant Williams
It would be a battle, that's for sure.
Enjoyed this
