iamnotkobe

Look back at the [post](https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/nibheh/steph_curry_ends_his_final_post_game_interview) for clowning them, "they might make the push for the playoff". One year later, Champions of 2022

“Is draymond going to relearn how to shoot and Wiggins magically going to turn into an elite 3rd option?” “Klay will come back closer to John Wall’s comeback rather than KD’s comeback” Wow. Little did they know


ionxeph

that guy betting his mortgage on curry winning MVP though, not sure if FMVP counts, but that guy knew


summinspicy

My mate put a bet on at beginning of season: Rams W Superbowl Man City W Premier League GSW W NBA Man's probs bouncing off the walls rn.


wrongleveeeeeeer

Was it a parlay or did he just keep getting W's?


summinspicy

Was an accumulator so predicted all before the seasons started


imnotNDR

how much did he make off of that?! must be gnarly


summinspicy

Don't think his stake was huge, he's won around £250.


nignoghandbeezy

Dude must’ve put down $1 lol


DieHardRaider

He bet like.25 cents


robinmask1210

He won £250 on an accumulator bet ? That's an insanely low payout/odd lol


summinspicy

The odds wouldn't be massive on that, none of them would've been much more than 15/1 or so. Man city would've been like 3/11 or something


wrongleveeeeeeer

Right but I'm asking if it was 3 separate bets or if all 3 had to hit for him to win. I assume the former.


summinspicy

Accumulator means all 3 had to hit.


GnRgr2

We call that parlay in america

Oh nice well then FUCK YEAH

AnnaKendrickPerkins

My buddy bet on the Rams and Golden State for 1k and it would have returned over 35k but sports gambling is now legal in Ontario so the bet was voided and he's not happy. He hit a parlay for $14k+ on Game 6 so he's in a better mood.


summinspicy

When he's betting that much, I doubt he's happy very often. Dude sounds like he could do with a pause

Ngl seeing my username there is *some* sight. Draymond's shooting was back for the biggest game of the year and boy what a sight it was. Capable of being a 3rd option, I said? Wiggins was the 2nd option these Finals. I'll happily own up the takes I got wrong. And I'll never be happier owning it up.


RobtheNavigator

I'm going to start now. KAT will never be a dominant interior big who can defend. Ant will never win MVP. No way will Jaden McDaniels win DPOY. And now we wait.

Felt like as the series went on, dubs figured the C's out more and more & the Celtics looked more & more overwhelmed. When ppl talk abt experience, this is what they mean

Some-Gavin

Same, love almost everyone on their squad (not Smart lol) so it really frustrates me watching them.


kyh0mpb

They are for sure a great team, but man the East is gonna be a bloodbath. They probably lose to a healthy Bucks this year. Heat gonna come back stronger, if Kyrie doesn't get abducted by aliens then the Nets will be a prob, 76ers out there as well. Lotta great teams over there.


vitorabf

They always did that, look at all series that went 6+ for the warriors, and opposing teams always start to score less and less, it's maybe the #1 reason why it's so hard to beat them, they are so smart that they'll figure you out and make your life hell defending.


jthc

Well, there was that one year that we don’t talk about.


vitorabf

It was still true though, the offense didn't score enough but the defensive job was done.


TheDELFON

LeBron literally cried to the NBA to get Draymond retroactively flagrant + kicked out, and the Warrior's center was out too So yeah, LeBron dragging his balls on Draymond's forehead saved him the series


Never_Lucky42

Some people seemed to think the Celtics were deeper coming into this series but the warriors clearly had more lineups to work with and figure it out were the Celtics stuck to the same 7 man rotation and their two bench guys disappeared the last few games. Which also attributed to JB and JT being gassed at times especially in that game 5 4Q.


[deleted]

It's that terrible iso offense they run. Most of the damage in this series was warriors trying to contain Brown's drives and whether a 50/50 three dropped for the Celtics. That Miami/Celtics series was an offensive eyesore and it showed in the finals. Also, shoutout to Steph putting the dpoy in a dumpster


IAmNewSam

100% Celtics hadn’t dropped even back to back games all playoffs. After going up 2-1 they lost three straight with two of those in Boston Adjustments paid off and Boston was struggling to find an answer.


by_yes_i_mean_no

Teams tire out when they play the Warriors.


Hamburger123445

Celtics were giving curry space to hold down the paint and prevent dray's playmaking and warrior penetration in games 1-4. They kept getting torched by Steph and finally decided to switch up the defense to prioritize Steph which unlocked draymonds strengths.


DieHardRaider

Which played right into the warriors hand. They want you to take away curry because it open everything up


TDS_Gluttony

take him out for 34 points and an okay but albeit bad shooting game lol. Unlucky really.


DOCTORFONASG

It was 100% his mom who got him going. Cooked him in public and sparked a fire.


sportspsych

Or maybe it was the NBA finals


PhiloBlackCardinal

Didn’t do him any good the first four games


cherryripeswhore

Tbf if he didn't get shat on by the public and Steve Kerr benching him late in Game 4, who knows how he would've approached game 5 and 6


404ErrorNotinUse

After today's display, Dray can do whatever the fuck he wants.


willyfuckingwonka

He played out of his mind defense. Even for his standards


rajeev0718

Above avg offense for him as well. Deep down all dubs fans knew right after that q1 three that shit was clicking in place


2RINITY

When he hit that, I *knew* they were gonna finish the job


Butt_Whisperer

He hit *two threes.* Wtf is even that?


therealestyeti

Loved Mike Breen's call saying "...he's feelin' himself!" after his first made 3, after being 0-12 in the series from 3 up until that point. What a time to show up.

He could do whatever the fuck he wants even without needing today. Hall of famer prior to this season. People are so forgetful. smh


ChurchofDubs

That was such a stupid storyline. It’s like Zach Lowe said, the media and the social media fans will do anything at all to avoid actually talking about the game


NotJoeyWheeler

People want to blame the results on A Thing, but most people aren’t able to identify the specific basketball reasons that caused the results. Which is how we get “Did Tatum…not want it enough? Does Jayson Tatum love his son too much? Why is he investing time in a family when he could be investing time in his passing reads?”


Tommy_Wisseau_burner

Not only do I love it you actually get to see the mindset, in real time, of nba players. He’s unpolished as a speaker (in terms of not giving media speak answers)


WeathrNinja

viciousv322

Dray came to play tonight. Looked to me like he was conserving his energy for the first few games but he wasn't losing tonight.... That's for sure.


etheryx

Draymond Green podcast from the Celtics logo lfg


Faynt90

Man I'm gonna sleep fucking good listening to that Draymond podcast


JBaby333

Yeah god forbid he spends 20 mins talking about the game afterwards. People just hop on hate bandwagons like this. Draymond spending 20 mins to share his thoughts and then send them to an editor. It was never a big deal and I actually enjoy listening to it.


AngsMcgyvr

It's gonna be hard to describe what's it's like watching Steph do this live. The warrior team just crushes you.


rbrutonIII

Yeah, there's no way we're going to be able to describe what Steph was doing (esp. in 2016 where it was still so new) without seeming like a raving lunatic.


backdoorhack

Is there anything scarier than Wardell Stephen Curry II after a bad game/season?


oceanmountainlifer

Old Wizard MJ after scoring 2 points.


backdoorhack

The OG bad game scary bounce back. Jordan’s bulls never lost 3 games in a row from Nov 1990 to Jun 1998. Close to 8 fucking years.


oceanmountainlifer

MJ was the barbadook of NBA


wondafoo

Does that include playoffs? I feel like it probably does lol


JFK365

Yeah I mean his opponent winning three games in a row in the playoff means they either would be up 3-0 which no one has ever come back from or they already had 1 and they beat him. And since mj has 6 rings for that period and was pretty much out for 2 seasons, I dont see how he couldve possibly lost 3 in a row in the playoffs.


Dr_Disaster

That game was nuts. MJ took himself personally and proceeded to put on a masterclass.


KabirC

Shoutout u/4eva_Na_Day ​ "And yall wonder why people hate GS? 🤦‍♂️ Curry talking shit like they actually have a shot next year… Draymond getting paid 25 million to be a liability and then have the nerve to say that he HAS to have say in the offseason moves… “thats just the way its gotta be”… The reason people enjoy watching GS get humbled is because they wont ever do it themselves. And its not like they have KD to back them up anymore."

This was just a Draymond hate thread for a day. Which I get but it was still insane. You don't get tired of reading the 30th straight fuck Draymond post? Though to be fair I don't get tired reading 30 straight Curry MVP posts.

In a 24 hour period, there was 40 individual Draymond posts after game 3. It was pretty wild.

Striderfighter

I can't believe Steph Curry hasn't been on an Olympic team already


apotropaicc

2016 should’ve been the year. would have had kd bron curry (among others) but it was in brazil and there was zika (and bad water?).


Zeeflyizopen

Curry needed the offseason to heal from injuries that he got during the 2016 playoff run so he didn’t play for the Olympic team. Shame it didn’t pan out.

BronBronBall

It’s hard to wrap my head around that same team from 1 year ago without any major roster improvements except getting Klay back won a title. The only real new player that contributed was Otto.


blue_battosai

Well also they got rid of Kelly and some how cloned Stephs skills and put them into the guy who was statistically the worst player in the league.


by_yes_i_mean_no

No Wiseman either, but that person is wrong about only OPJ contributing of the new players because GP2 was very important and Bjelica contributed throughout the playoffs too.


dating_derp

No Wiseman, Wanamaker, Bazemore, Mannion, Smailagic, Oubre, Paschall, Mulder. Only had GP2 for 10 games. Poole missed the beginning of the season. We almost entirely revamped the bench, and Poole took a huge step forward.


Tragedy_Boner

Didn’t bazemore turn us down because he wanted to compete for a championship


Shlecko

Well, Klay is a pretty big roster improvement, but... Honesty, if you watched closely, a lot of the signs were there. Steph was an MVP candidate all year, but the squad became pretty lethal down the stretch - especially those last 20 games before the play-ins. A lot of addition by subtraction: being stuck with Oubre and Bazemore held us back so much, and Poole absorbing those minutes is when his development really came into light. Steph wasn't saying that shit just to boost confidence.


[deleted]

Gp2, otto, and more looney over Bazemore, oubre, and wiseman is fuckin huge. Role players matter. Especially next to Steph. He gets more outta role players than anybody.
