@@juwanharris5425 nope
#1 Kyrie Irving didn't get vaccinated. Thjs broke up Brooklyn Nets to open the door for Golden State #2 Jordan Poole grabbing Ja Morant's kneecap and taking Morant out of the playoffs. #3 Chris Middleton being injured in the playoffs for Milwaukee. #4 Tyler Herro being injured for Miami.

@@juwanharris5425 woulda could shouda stop yourself
Probably the best monologue I’ve heard describing Steph and the warriors. Simply built not bought and earned not taken. When you have a group of players as selfless as the warriors all willing to sacrifice numbers and stardom in the pursuit of a championship, that’s what makes them so special to me. A treasure to watch and can’t wait for what’s next to come. Thank you for your honesty Colin
"but curry doesn't have a season where he average triple double and he hasn't won the dunk contest. he's trash."

@@tigrealpaxley4894 That's a stupid comment....

@@MegaChallanger Just with KD. I don’t think they ever needed him though.
Colin had the best commentary on the Warriors finals victory. He gave glowing credit to the team and Steph, while all the other shows criticized the Celtics.
U are so right
Colin keeps things in perspective and doesn't sugar coat a thing. Don't forget Ms. Taylor is his complementary co-host and amazing.
@@angelsandoval9346 still beyond me that all these fools rather listen to skip melting their remaining brain cells.
i agree. good insights indeed.
Exactly.
Me personally picks MJ and Curry as the most impactful players that ever played this game. They've done the things they're doing ahead everyone else. Not based on the number of championships and personal accolades, i think these two are the greatest force to ever grace the NBA. I remember when i was young, everyone wants to be like mike. Today, the kids are hitting threes coz they think they're cool doing it despite low percentages. And we see over the years an increase of bball players who are good at what is Steph is doing. He paved the way for these unathletic and small guys to dominate their games. I used to believe that bball was for big, tall and super athletic guys but Steph totally erased that belief same as AI gave me hope when i was young watching him doing the things he did.
Sorry but Curry is on my 🏔 with MJ all day.
can u add jordan kobe and steph tnx
no way. Steph is not even on Kobe or Duncan's level.
@@jayspin8093 i said impactful not the best player of all time... Steph and MJ change how basketball is played in the NBA....Kobe is definitely better than Steph but he is a copy of MJ..
@@link3453 How when it had already started changing in the latte 2000's. Steph didn't change taking 3's
Rooting for Klay for injuries that he came back,
Rooting for GP2 for no team want to have him,
Rooting for Poole for people saying hes the worst draft that the GSW have..
Rooting for Andrew for them saying he is a bust 1 pick..
Rooting for Steph for Final MVP that missing in his resume

You can tell about Steph Currey, by how he interacts with Players, his relationship with Iggy, his smile to Jordon Poole development, His reaching out to Klay, when he was injured, when he try to fly to talk to Durant when he signed with Brooklyn, his relationship with JTA in pregame warm up. Steph Curry is a real person, a person who down to earth.
And Wiggins saying that he like How he talks to the players.
Curry*
@@legattostacatto4805 Just ask Wiggy - he'll tell you Steph is the GOAT (Greatest Of All Teammates).
that’s why steph is Greatest in and out of basketball. Dude he’s ready to step back for his teammates to shine and give them so much credit. And people still looking for him to discredit every single year/season. At the end curry make them cry.
A leader 🙌🏾
Stephen Curry has done it all. His talent as a player makes him an all time great, but his humble nature and leadership make him a once in a lifetime player and the ultimate fundamental piece of a dynasty. Truly have enjoyed watching this man’s greatness over the last 10 years. I know his game 4 will be the memorable performance, but I thought he was excellent last night. 34-7-7-2 on efficient splits and really solid, disruptive defense on a night where nobody other than Draymond stepped up offensively.
Wiggins was 4 - 6 from 3. Poole blew the game open in the first half with his play making and shooting. Strength in numbers.
@@cyberft They filled in with timely contributions for sure.
@@braddillon4311 which your absolutely entitled too. young man.
Plus adding to the fact he transformed the way current NBA players and younger, developing players play the game of basketball in the modern era. Truly a generational talent we may never see the likes again.
Sorry I have seen much better in my life time: Wilt, Kareem, Magic, Bird, MJ, Shaq, Kobe, Duncan, LJ.
All those plays could play in any era, Steph can only playin this soft era where you can't touch him.
Steph is incredible. Nobody in sports has ever been like him. There isn’t a single bad word you can honestly say about the man.
He's rather bad at defense.
@@keif9447 wasn't bad vs the Celtics had some great deflections and held his own in his match ups he still did what he needed to do no? That is why Draymond is on the team.
@@jfoster8624 still relatively bad
@@keif9447 he wasn't tho if you actually look at his isolated defense form this last game it was actually good it gets overshadowed by Draymond and Wiggins but he wasn't getting blown by or boided by the Celtics at all.
@@jfoster8624 he's bad, he can shoot and has some good dribbling skills, but when it comes to defense, he's bad.
I gotta give it to Colin, he really put the warriors into a perspective I didn’t think of before. I’m a Chicago bulls fan (I hate the Celtics) and I found myself rooting for the Warriors, now I see why. It IS easy to root for them because they do it the right way. Congrats GS
I like Colin’s takes. He finds a way to make sports to life analogies
Because thats all the sports means for us the fans rooting for our team isnt!!
this bozo said Warriors would never win again, yet he's on here saying all this.. he's a clown!!

This is without question the best summation of The Warriors (team, staff & organization) I've heard since their finals win. You left no stone unturned, nothing unsaid. I can only add that I concur that there is something to be said for the Warriors' formula - leadership, selflessness, development, character, comraderie, strength in numbers, staying the course & playing with joy. Win, lose or draw that's what makes them the best in my eyes ✨

Well said, Colin. The only issue I have is that Duncan would UNDOUBTEDLY be a Top 10, no matter how you cut it. Five championships, Two regular season MVP, Three Finals MVP, 15x All NBA and 15x All Defensive. If he played in a bigger market, eg New York, San Fran or LA, he might have enjoyed the narrative of being on the Mount Rushmore. Duncan was also THE PLAYER every coach/team wanted to have - great offense, great defense, holding down the paint, big time player/big heart, extremely loyal, awesome leadership, very coachable and team player, and galvanized everyone around him. He’s definitely in the Top 5-10 mark.
I don’t think he was talking about top 10, I think it was more about his “Mt. Rushmore” meaning most influential/impactful players. Not disagreeing though - Duncan is undoubtedly top 10
He always just has little derisive notes on the spurs for some reason, lacking respect for one of the most winningest players of all time which is also idiotic.
He can be a top 10 the 2 mtn only featured 8 players😉
He has been top5!
Beautifully said. There’s something special about players who spend there entire career with one team and win that way.
True, that’s why I do like MJ, Kobe, Bird, Magic, Duncan and Steph.
I think Lebron is awesome but him jumping all over and assembling super teams is a stain.

@@stevenclark5173 well, that doesn’t really count. 😂
Thank you Colin. For making the total case for the Warriors and for Steph. You covered ALL the bases that make the Warriors franchise so special.
Extremely well said Colin. Appreciate the respect you have for the Dubs. Incredible title run with a TON of great storylines. Gary Payton II was actually cut before the season, but asked to keep working out with the team, and Bob Myers said, "Sure, of course you can." Now that guy is an NBA champion. Incredible story, one of many on the 2022 Warriors
Other than the fact tht he's now a Champion he's one of the Team's most impact full players on " DEFENSE " no one else other than Wiggins n Draymond plays Defense the way he does. His Defense is Annoyingly Disturbing lolololol lolololol lolololol
Well said Collin. This is what best describe Steph. I saw this during his finals MVP awarding. You probably noticed that he didn't touch the award once presented to him. He high fives all of his teammates, staff and almost everyone in that stage before he received the trophy. It's like acknowledging everyone had a part on his award. Amazing.
... I'm gonna go watch a replay and look for THIS... I'm SURE he DIDN'T, tho...cause that's Steph's nature 👏🏿💙💛🏀👏🏿
Like the great Bill Walsh said. Champions behave and act like champions before their champions. The Warriors’ players sacrifice(starters coming off the bench, stars sacrificing scoring) is a championship decision, accepting their roles and perfecting them is a championship decision, being coachable is a championship decision, choosing to stay in one place to build a culture instead of leaving to build a super team elsewhere is a championship decision….the result of their championship work ethic, and championship decisions resulted in a championship. They win championships because they’re true champions.
Hey bro I don’t think you wrote the word “championship” enough in your comment. Can you write it a few more times?
@@BDizDaBest 🤣
Thanks Bro, always like to hear the Organizational wisdom of Coach Walsh!
KD came to them and built a super team. Let’s stop with “they never left to form a super team” there was no need to.
@@gocrazyriley7619 really ? Warriors drafted them superstars, coached, developed them. They took one or two pieces here n there. Not like other teams, who has 90% of the players taken from others'
Bob myers and the front office of the warriors need a lot of praise they are the best in the 2010s they’re very meaningful with the picks in the draft every year and they develop the players like none other. Coming from a longtime celts fan respect to the warriors.
They don't need a bunch of All-Stars joining up to make a super team, they create their own.
@@zikemdg wiggins at this point may as well be called home grown also since he wasn't able to achieve these heights in his other teams. called a bust and that his contract was basically a poison pill when GS made that trade.
Celtics part of the process also by giving the new Dubs owners experience before coming Golden State. They made a lot of great hires/moves with Curry being the centerpiece of the roster
@@zikemdg I love it
it was more jerry west who built gsw. i remember when lacob and myers tried to trade klay for Kevin love and jerry shot that trade down.
"..If you hang around with Superstars, Good Things Happen.." - Coach Steve Kerr. Well done Coach! Wiggins was surrounded by A gamers and Great Motivators coming from GSW. That's why Wiggins was able to make the best of his plays. You can just feel how He is so much comfortable playing with those guys. He was the perfect fit for this organization. Congratulations Andrew you are one of my Fave Players since Minnesota Days. I knew that someday you will be a great revelation and it did happen. I am so happy for SC. I completely agree he remains normal and humble unlike any other superstars and that's what makes him so different from others. We love him so much here. All the Love from 🇵🇭 💚🤍💖
You nailed it about Steph and the Warriors in general. Steph came off the bench at the beginning of the playoffs...what other superstar does that? The Warriors are such a well run organization. You can see it when you go to a game, everything (and I mean everything) is dialed in, top to bottom. Bob Meyers is playing chess while most other GMs are playing checkers. Having been a fan of the Warriors for about 40 years now and suffering through many, many bad teams and seasons, it's a true joy to be able to watch them play and I catch as many games as I can.

Congratulations Golden State Warriors!! As a LA Lakers fan since 1964-65 who always roots against the Boston Celtics, I thought this was their most impressive championship. I picked the Celtics to win the series because their players were taller and there is the history with that team winning so many championships. But very happy to see GS win this championship. (Draymond Green - one remarkable player. The same for so many others.

LeBron is the GOAT.
I honestly feel like we will be competing at a high level for the next 3 years, barring injuries. Steph will still be able to shoot at 37-39 as well so it's not unrealistic to think that Steph could get 6 rings.
Gsw will win atleast 2 more chips
He might be elite into his late 30s like Lebron which is rare but so impressive. But it’s gonna depend on how well Klay/Draymond play by then. Sooner or later guys will decline and brake down.
Now we’re talking!!
Yeah Steph hasn't really been known for his athleticism (most his cardio and endurance) so he can play well into his late 30s. I see at least 1 more ring in his career before he retires.
@@starmorpheus Just gonna depend on how good Klay/Draymond are by then
I just love to see that their roots, great drafting, developing and coaching are winning out. They were great before Durant, unbeatable with him, but great again without him. So happy to see them get this one, overcoming so much adversity. Their ability to forget yesterday is unbelievable.
And we can’t forget how Curry overcame a slump and his recent ankle injury, Klay being out 2 yrs. And has he even been paid? And damn, Wiggins. My boy from Kansas who thought he was gonna win a championship in yr 1 w Lebron, but was relegated to snow and misery.
And how can you not love Looney, Payton, and Poole. Who thought they’d be able to out rebound teams? To play with Boston’s defense?
Name another super team that broke up and won without their best player. Or a team to fall so far and bounce back. The Kobe Lakers are the closest I can think of. Coming back with Gasol and Odom.
No the Warriors were Jordan Poole grabbing Ja Morant's kneecap to take him out of the playoffs without Kevin Durant. Like the Golden State Warriors center Pachula injured Kwahi Leonard in the playoffs when the San Antonio Spurs were beating the breaks of of them at home in the Bay area. But the NBA allows the most marketed players team to play dirty. The excuse for the cheating they do is OH THEY WOULD'VE WON ANYWAY. Corruption at its worst.

@@PVMMAC It must hurt to know your team is not good enough like past NBA champions to win without hurting the best player on the other team in the

I figured it out in 2008 when I watched him play in the NCAA tournament. Haven’t looked back since. He’s a generational talent who has a great head on his shoulders and plays with a joy that I’ve never seen before. He’s captivating to anyone who watches him closely or plays against him. The day he retires will be a sad sad day. Until then I hope we all realize that these moments are fleeting. Let’s give the man his flowers now and sit back and watch the greatest show on earth. Congrats Steph!!!! 🍾🍾🍾🍾

He brought me back to the NBA after Warriors' old owner inflicted too many bitter disappointments. I honestly don't know if I will be able to continue watching once he retires, since there are no other players like him, no joyful warriors, no humble, down-to-earth superstars, no other sublime talents melded so perfectly with genuine, decent, likable humanity in one person's being.

@@RooseveltAliWashingtonXgotta play how the rules dictate. Defense doesn't matter that not what the $$$ want. I'm a old school football fan. I dont even follow today's football so I feel ya. But sadly it's what it is.
The difference between GSW to other organizations is that, GSW invest on talents that they can teach and possibly develop. While other organizations get developed players who have Big Egos.
KD only worked for as long as it did because of like you said, Big Egos. He even said a month or so back that the Warriors’ play style only takes you so far in the playoffs. Lol 2015 and now 2022 not proof enough for him? As if he carried the Warriors in 2017 and 2018? He made 2017 and 2018 so much easier, but he did not carry. With Curry being double and triple teamed, the obvious person to take advantage of that is KD.
For real. Look at what iggy was doing on the coach with Winnings and Payton
KD just cant accept that Curry is the real leader of GSW thats why he left the team. And Despite winning the 2 FMVP, that is because curry is not selfish. Curry can win FMVP even before if he wanted to, but instead he chose to play as decoy so KD will be free to score.
This championship is really important to them. Because they shut all the doubters.
@@MariE-bz2eq exactly bro. What amazes me in GSW is their culture. Everyone respects each other. Everyone have their own role which they embrace without their Egos hurt.
5 years ago I still would have taken Steph over Westbrook
You mean ten years ago
Well duh.
I like that take, "Steph still feels like a lunch pale guy that punches the clock like everyone else." That's why he's relatable. Great monologue, Colin. Everyone on this Warriors team overcame adversity, that's why this Championship was sweeter than 2 and 3, imo. The Warriors became more compelling, stayed humble and put their heads down and worked hard through the hard times instead of whining or giving up. They earned it and everyone on the team acts and talks like your neighbor.
Curry, Klay, and Wiggins are authentic human beings they are secure and comfortable with who they are.
Up here in the North, we were still quaking in our boots, even when both Durant and Thompson were hurt. Just because the Warriors had Curry and you absolutely know he’s going to step up.
right
Facts it took an all time teams performance to bury that warriors I mean a team shooting 50-50-85 in a finals game 6 is insane man lol
Thanks for the respect! Hats off to you 👏🏽
“Quaking” love it lol
Cowherd > Bayless. Your takes are so much more realistic and thought out than Skips. I used to watch Undispited daily, without fail. I think I like your show a lot better now.
Skip just spews nonsense for the sake of ratings and views. You can tell even Shannon Sharpe can't stand him sometimes
Skip is literally ruining that show. It sucks because he kind of created the genre. But his agendas have gotten out of control and he's killing his show. First Take is doing a much better job now that they are bringing players on.
Always liked Colin more. Skip doesn’t have any real substance. He doesn’t know much about sports and Colin is far more intellectual.
I do too. Skip speaks facts but then sometimes he feels the need to ignore the obvious and try bashing a person just because. It's unnecessary
SAME IVE STOPPED WATCHING UNDISPUTED FIR A WHILE CAUSE SKIP IS TOXICCC
This was a great segment ,Colin really did a good job of eloquently describing Steph and his humility. He really does give off that punch in for work type of vibe lol and it’s relatable. Good stuff!
Wonderful Tribute to one of the greatest b-ballers, teams and organizations of all time. Well done Colin.......
All Championships are unique and special but this one may have been the most unlikely from the standpoint of were the Warriors were a couple of years ago. No NBA team has ever gone from a league-worst record to win a championship in just two years.
I’d be curious to know if that stat is true. Seems true though.
Celtics did it
@@ninowaves4061 Celtics didn't do it. They were the worst in the East not the worst in the entire league
Ever.
Exactly sums up why I also love the warriors. Perfectly said.
My feelings going into the Finals were this, I thought the series would go 7 games. Boston is big, long & athletic, but here's where I knew Golden state would pull it out, they had 123 games of Playoff experience vs. Boston's ZERO. With each game the pressure gets more intense, that's where the championship DNA kicks in. I remember a few weeks ago I was in this local store after our game 1 loss, I had on my Golden State T-shirt. Guys in line started saying "you guys are done, it's over for you." I said, "It's only one game,we'll make adjustments you'll see. Then some guy that worked in the store screamed "GOLDEN STATE IN 6!" I winked at him and left out. I can't describe how I feel right now, I don't care if we don't win another game, I'm satisfied forever with life memories that can't be taken away. Sorry haters but Golden State makes the NBA watchable again.
To me, it was over for Boston after the end if game 4
You mean finals experience, not playoffs experience. But I agree that experience won this championship for GSW
Warriors punked Boston. They were mentally and physically better.

This is a team game. Another great take Colin. Go Warriors!
that's the thing about them, they play good team ball where everyone can shoot and play D which makes them unpredictable and who shoots the basket
Good point: KD is amazing and when he was at GSW it felt like the warriors had to win. With KD gone, every game is a nail biter that GSW has to fight and scrap for, and I'm still surprised that this bunch of guys did it again and again.
Colin I was leaning this way before watching this masterpiece but this segment confirms it, you are the GOAT of basketball sports media. Clear-eyed, eloquent, and informative--you have distilled the recipe for winning not only in sports but in life down to essential traits. The fundamental key: people come first. Invest in people, give them your full attention, call out their accomplishments and contributions and explain why their behavior and actions are beneficial. Constructively criticize bad decisions and behaviors with goal of helping people improve, never to demean. This is lifeblood of successful organizations and the entire Warriors organization is built on this DNA. It attracts the best as a result. Thank you for all that you do and being an antidote for the weak and lazy analysis of people like Kendrick Perkins, Nick Wright and Stephen A.
You truly inspire me.
This is why we love Warriors man. They play the essence of Basketball. Kinda reminds me of my Highschool team where we had lots of passes and trying to create the best way to score and stuff our opponents back on the defense by being discipline and not giving up little plays and fouling less. We didnt give a damn who scores thr most, every points is valuable and they're team's points.
Wonderfully said and uniquely acknowledging! Pleasant and most candid commentary I've come across after in their reemergence. Thank you!
Calling the spurs boring killed his monologue tbh
Steve Kerr needs 4 more to become the best basketballer of all time. Of course his team revolutionized basketball with the shot he perfected.
Joe Lacob received a lot of flak when he said the GS Warriors were "light years ahead" of the rest of the league, not to brag but to speak the truth (and I guess as a low-key warning) but how prophetic it turned out to be. Congrats to Warriors, and entire top-notch organization.
To be the worst team in the league after those 5 straight trips to the finals and being down to the bottom for 2 straight years due to injuries, to turn around a win this quickly with all those new players and rookies that haven't had much time with Steph, Klay, and Draymond all playing together with Klay only almost 5 months back after being gone for 2 years is unimaginable and he's only going to get better from here👀...this finals win was epic and well deserved🙌🏽🔥🔥🔥🏆🏆🏆🏆
Appreciate the greatness that is Steph Curry. Truly inspirational icon. This is the best monologue of Steph Curry I've heard thus far. We'll done Colin. So very true. Very humble and a man of great faith and family.
This is a great example of perseverance. So often we talk about the need to “bail” on situations. KD left golden state. Lebron left Miami. Doesn’t mean you can’t win after leaving but when you stay and stick it out not only are the highs that more satisfying but you have a chance to build something for a period of time. Golden state will continue to be here for a while, just like the spurs were with Duncan. Build the foundation and keep guys around you’ll win more over time than taking the short term routes.
Chris Tyson sports media will be all over the warriors until giannis milwaukee bucks look unbeatable and the nets look great then the narrative will change.
Lebron gets praised for taking shortcuts he couldn't even get it done and build a foundation in Cleveland but the media and fans praise him so much
@@leonardomoore1868 for sure. Narratives change as events change I don’t doubt that. But the numbers don’t lie. 4 in 8 years is incredible, especially considering they went to 6 in that time. If bucks win next year they deserve credit for doing 2 in 3 year which is also impressive. They too are great for sticking out the highs and lows and not overreacting when they lose like some star players do. Patience is rewarded in sports.
@@mr.perfect1749 to his credit it is impressive to go somewhere and take that team to the promise land. But his chips are still viewed as different. Dirks 1 ring probably means more than lebrons heat rings and the lakers ring, only comparable one is the Cleveland ring. So while the media gives praise cuz he earned it by winning there are still levels to how they talk about the rings.
@@christyson664 KD can join two other superstars when they're at they're best ever four years and win more than 3.5 rings what lebron did wasn't impressive. What if MJ Kobe etc team hopped around the league teaming up with other allstars to win people would be criticizing them but the media putting him in the same sentence as MJ is pathetic if he was so good he would've won the right way on his original team he would've done it better than MJ Kobe etc if he's supposed to be better
My god those words are so well said. Exactly why I love this organization.
Beautifully said
Collin is absolutely SPOT ON in this monologue in highlighting the people in the organization. Bob Myers is the best GM, Kerr is the best players coach and the pair of them make each other even better. The Warriors draft based on player’s POTENTIAL and no team does better in developing their draft picks.
What a winner. Congrats Golden State Warriors. & to Steph Curry. & nonetheless to the coach Steve Kerr. That made my day. Boston Celtics you did a great job no doubt
I agree their passing and shooting is like a college team but then you add an athletic talent like Wiggins, and they are at a whole new level.
Collin says a lot of bs sometimes but I like how he's the only that really gave the warriors credit throughout the whole season before they even won the chip. Sure he didn't pick them to win it all but he seemed to be the only guy in the media that enjoyed watching them play and giving them credit when it was due
Curry over Duncan??? lol
NBA Titles: Tim = 5 Curry = 4
Finals MVPs: Tim = 3 Curry = 1
Season MVP: Tim = 2 Curry = 2
All-NBA: Tim = 15 Curry = 8
All-Defense: Tim = 15 Curry = 0
ACHV Totals. Tim = 40 Curry = 15
Guys, it’s not even close. I’ve been doing this for a long time and Tim Duncan has one of the highest Achievement Totals I’ve ever come across
Absolutely correct the warriors figured something out every game and I believe had an answer to every scheme Boston presented. Boston was a monster but some teams you can afford some turnovers a couple bad decisions but with golden state they take advantage of every opportunity. Smart selfless very talented championship TEAM
Colin loves him some DYNASTY
What make GSW so good is that it feels like a band of brothers more than just bunch of teammates. Each player knows theirs roles and are willing to sacrifice for one another and have each other's backs. If one goes down or plays bad, the others know to kick it up a notch and make up for the others. It's the culture of the organization and the other teams try to emulate it but fail because those players are more selfish and aren't willing to give something up for the greater good.
They saved Wiggins and McGee careers. Respect
Just to put in perspective how bad we were we won more games this playoff run then we did 2 years ago
Yea they were atrocious, but they literally had none of their top guys. Steph got hurt first couple weeks and Klay the previous finals. And yes they only won 15 that year but it was in 65 games. We don't need to give them extra credit, those 3 guys together have always been great when they're on the floor and always championship contenders. That year was just an oddity cz all top guys were gone from the year b4.
@@BigZoe99 I know but it's still a crazy thing to think about. And it represents everything we've been through
When they add another super star like KD after they just won a championship with 2 superstars, they get no sympathy. Give me a break 🙄
such a good point
@@jway6638 salty
Golden State plays basketball the right way, they play team team basketball. They work hard, have fun, and play excellent defense. GS shoots the 3 yet can score in the paint effectively after spreading the floor. The warriors are the best team in basketball and proved it again last night.
@3:30 when he starts talking about the issues the team has and he started answering them with people we already have i got shivers
Colin, I tip my hat to you. This was one of the most well balanced analysis of the 2022 Golden State Warriors. Even after their fourth, there are still chirping from the talking heads that love nothing more than the sound of their own incessant screeching or even to the other extreme where they're ready to foist Steph to sainthood before his career is even over yet. You heard Steph when reporters asked about his MVP (which was important to everyone else but Steph to validate his achievements) he insisted that reporters stay on point that the Warriors won their fourth championship in eight years. There was no false modesty there. It will be their selflessness that will leave their mark on the legacy of the NBA. The Warriors win because they assemble the best team not purchasing a collection of the "best players".
EXCELLENT ANALYSIS 👏🏿💙💛🏀👏🏿
One of the Top 10 greatest NBA players in history.
The greatest shooter in NBA history and one of the top three (Chamberlain, Jordan) greatest game changers of all time.
Chamberlain??? NO! it's Russell ! Cause defense can get 🏆
That was amazing... Im not sure I've Herd anyone contextualize Steph Curry and the Warriors so well. Ever.
Draymond Green needs more credit. It should be beyond doubt at this point that he’s a legitimate Hall of Famer. One of the greatest defenders of all time.
His impact on the game is legit and cannot be said enough. He can guard 1-5, can sometimes hit an open shot, and is just smart when he has the ball. He knows what he can, can't do and just focuses on what makes the team continue to flow. Definite HOF!
many would argue but undoubtedly draymond is part of the formula to success the warriors have
I’m a HUGE Kobe fan but after his untimely death, I found it extremely difficult to root for Lebron since he’s full of drama….Then I started looking at Steph were he literally changed the way NBA is played now. I started rooting for him because of what Colin said, he’s a NORMAL dude! Stayed humble even after all the accolades and in my opinion even got hungrier when the so called “experts” counted them out. Remember when even before this season started this “experts” were saying it’s Lakers vs Nets? Congrats to the Warriors. What a DYNASTY!
U a kobe fan explains y u hate lebron
The three point line has been in existence since 79. It was D'Antoni who encouraged the run and gun style of play that we see today. Steph and the GSW simply mastered it. He didn't, "literally changed the way NBA is played now."
Really well said Colin! Loved it
Beautifully said take. Being a San Francisco Native this is greatly appreciated. Great time to be a Warriors fan💙💛🥳
SF native here, too. 68 years.
Absolutely speechless. I can't even find the words of how well put together this is. Respect
Best take on the Warriors greatness. Great job Collin. Really a good analysis on how amazing this basketball team is top all the way down.
Colin! One of few media folks who understands true value and greatness of Steph!
Yal said he didnt need a fmvp now it's so important
Always wishy washy
it didn't but now that he has it, you goofy mfs will act like it's meaningless
You clearly haven't watched the video yet
@@laneprice8827 don't have to he sid previously steph didn't need it
Us Dubs fan knew he didn't, but NBA fans as a whole didn't. This just cements what we all knew, it puts Steph all time top 10.
I love how he breaks everything down, it’s always a pleasure hearing him!!
The disrespect to Tim Duncan has to stop man he has 5 rings on the same team without him Spurs wasn’t and haven’t been the same very underrated he top 6 player all time
Definitely. I'd say replace steph with duncan on that lesser mount rushmore. No offense to steph but just as steph is important to the warriors, duncan was also important to the spurs.
@@kol8214 lol no. y'all totally missed the point
Absolutely brilliant take.
Yes, dynasty! Curry is the guy everyone wants to play with. No ego, wants everyone else to be better. Good family/father.
Excellent commentary! The quality that I hope to hear when I tune in for sports commentary, but rarely do.
Great show. Great commentary 👌🏿.
You are one of the rare TV sport personalities that give the Warriors their flowers.
You didn't trash the Wiggins trade... you said it was a good fit from day one.
This is authentic.
Congrats steph. One of the best players of my generation and I am happy to witness the greatness.
This was so succinct. This is why we're enamored with Steph and the Warriors. Organic, smart and they do things right. What they have from top to bottom is enviable. They're the biggest walking contradiction of being the underdog juggernaut.
Absolutely spot on!!! Not one dislike as of 18th June. You touched a sweet spot in Warriors fans and non warriors fans with this monologue. Sweet !!!!! 👍👍👍👍
Brilliant!!!! 😁😁😁
Just so you know, dislikes are disabled on youtube lmao
This must be best take and video that I've seen after the Warriors win. This is profound, well said and so true.
Kudos you Colin... 👏 🙌🏾
Colin “they’re more human than you” Cowherd
Beep boop
There are moments like this where Colin really captures me. Going on this deep analogy. I love it and how he makes me feel like I can be curry how any of us can be that guy. I’m so happy that curry got the MVP well deserved great season. See y’all in the fall
Colin is next level to be just by the fact he calls himself out when he said something in the past and was wrong. Even in this video he stated he was wrong to say that steph should leave due to the team's injuries.
Beautifully said, all the focus has been on criticizing the celtics and what they didnt do or could've done. Instead of realizing the Warriors peaked at the right time and had all their players healthy at the right time too.
I like Colin's level headed takes
This guy is on point today 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is by far the BEST explanation to what Warriors is all about. Thanks Colin. That is WHY I root for them too and I'm sure everybody else does either
Love this monologue by Colin. Once in a while I come back to watch it again.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 excellent Colin ……you read my mind ….and the heart of all the fans of the Warriors 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Thank you Colin! You're the voice of reason. The only analyst who isn't a Warriors hater.
Thank you Collin! For recognizing the greatness.
That was remarkably great commentary. Well done Colin.
I would like to add that what the Warriors did this year was to inject energy to the team - particularly on defense. We heard all about how great the Boston Baked Beans were on defense, but they could not handle the Warriors once the Warriors put all of their players together that are developing defenders. And this was not because the team guessed wrong. The team played without key components of the defense all season - injuries - especially in the playoffs. But what also happened is that the new additions finally jelled over the last part of the regular season - Poole, Payton, and Wiggins in particular. Once all of those new additions came in, the team just turbo-boosted the already great talent they had. Boston never knew what hit it during the last three games once the Warriors found the energy boost roster. And it was not just putting all three on the floor at the same time - it was great coaching to spread them out to add sparks to the roster to wear down the likes of Tat-um, not so Smart, and Mophead. Kerr is like a locksmith - once he finds how to pick your team apart, he does it without mercy.
And what's scary is they are set up at every key position for the next 5 years. Today it's
Steph (guard), Klay (wing), Dray (big),
tomorrow it'll be Poole (guard), Wiggins (wing), Looney (big),
and later down the line they'll have Moody (guard), Kuminga (wing), and Wiseman (big).
If they can figure out a way to keep the development going and pay everyone the succession plan is set. It's incredible and SCARY. Also, I'd love to see these three on three games at practice lol.
They wont be able to afford to pay all those guys. Poole/ GPJr/ Looney / Wiggins Are all going to qualify for paydays after their current contracts and I doubt they'd give that up.
TBH, I’m not sure what can happen after Steph retires. He is such a unique player. He reminds me of TD. Spurs never found his successor.
Colin is absolute CLASS. One of my favorite analysts. Even when I don’t agree with his takes he’s always fair, well thought, out and eloquent.
This is one of my favorite warriors takes. Salute
This guy gets it better than any other outside commentator. He sees the intelligence and talent, and chemistry and, not least, the character of this team.
Moses Moody has crazy athleticism that nobody is talking about. What a future the Warriors have. Go Champs!!!
