"The warriors team" nah let's shout out steph like we do lebron when he wins
Exactly.. like we didn't watch it and see that steph was the only closer they had.
Celtics {2-4}, Mavericks {1-4}, Grizzlies {2-4}, and Nuggets {1-4} were all posited as better teams than the eventual 2022 NBA Champion {Warriors} ...4x
That was the season Steph was finishing his degree and the team slacked down while he was kinda MIA. Then right before the regular season was over, Steph snapped back into himself and that is when the momentum took the upswing for that team.
@@sueprator9314 Curry was injured the last month of the season and used sparingly in the beginning of the playoffs.
@@sueprator9314 There were plenty of reasons for that inconsistent regular season, it was also the season in which Steph broke the 3pt record and both him and the team were clearly forcing it, he was taking forced shots and the team was feeding him even if it wasn't the right play so that got him into a cold streak. Then it was also Klay coming back and reinserting him into the system and rotations. Both Steph and Draymond dealt with injuries throughout the season, plus Draymond was also at his lowest moment offensively, and also if we are being honest, just off of names the team wasn't really _that_ talented.
If you go strictly off of regular season performance and stat sheets it's no wonder the Dubs were overlooked in the playoffs, but then again everyone who did watch them and knew basketball was pretty aware that they were a sleeper for the chip, the team had nearly perfect fit and chemistry, all they needed was some rhythm which was exactly what they got at the end of the regular season and especially the 1st round when Steph came back.
Smart looks like he been retired for 2 years
unc at the cook out fr
Memphis was scary as hell that year with or without ja, they were cooken the west. Who ever won that series for me will take that trophy.
Huge respect 🙏🏽
You know smart Lowkey hurt he deserved a ring too
if he was not in the team that won the ring, how the F does he deserve one?
He ain't Dru Holiday
Jrue would of got Cook by Steph.
@@BoosterGoldEarth6 As a warrior fan, he wouldn't 'cook' him but steph would have still been amazing and would of won. Steph himself said jrue is one of, if not the best defenders in league.
What it was is that celtics needed to go small with Tatum in the middle, but they screwed up
Keep up the good work
The difference is that in 2024, the Celtics got Jrue. In 2022, they got Smart who lost them that series by chucking ill-advised threes and not defending Curry on the three. Of course, Tatum's bad series played a part too. But just having an experienced Dwhite and Jrue would have allowed them to beat GSW in Game 4 . They lost that series in Game 4
Don’t forget just 2 years ago, Dwhite was an unreliable 3pt shooter. Crazy how much a 2 year span can change things, now u can’t even leave him open.
Smart got done like derozan did wit Toronto. They let him go for kawhi like smart got let go for Jrue n both missed a ring.
Yea but kawhi is a level above derozen
The Celtics had talent but were inexperienced in competing against a veteran Golden State Warriors team. The Warriors' defense won it all as they forced JT into many turnovers and made our guys, who were streaky shooters at times, try to beat the Warriors. The Jays carried the offense that year in 2021-22, but the role players around them were not consistent.
But Steph is not a generational talent 😂
Yea ,cause he a once in a lifetime player 😂you'll never see another player like him in Any of the next generations ...he different different
Steph not top 10 still!!!!!
@@BoosterGoldEarth6 so who is?
@@BoosterGoldEarth6🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
And people hate harden for not winning against them smh
It’s not that. It’s how he played in game 7. That 2-13 from 3 is rough.
Theo should get signed
for what..
Come on. They were the Heat…Gabe Vincent really? Max Strus? REALLY?
You were on the Celtics!
Going 7 was y’all own damn fault. Could have swept their ass but got complacent.
They did Smart wrong man. He should go to the Warriors 😂
Lmfao. Dallas also had a one week vacation. The NBA adjusted the finals to have them rest up. NBA guys are way too funny at Lying. Holiday is an upgrade and Brown is in his prime
The NBA announced that the FInals were starting June 6th since a while back, they didn't adjust nothin.
This idiot really get the 1 week rest but left the banged up part
Not really. Dallas was playing more games and as such were less rested. The Celtics in the same way were playing more on their way to the finals in 2022. That has got to give some fatigue.
Excuses 😂
More like injures 😂
Why does Smart voice sounds like Joe Rogan?
And that was the mid version of the Warriors. Now imagine them in 2016...yeah, LeBron beat that
Due to greens suspension 😂 don’t get it twisted
@@skubasteve8526still dropped 40 when he came back lmao next time don’t hit peoples nuts
@@mayowaojutalayo5298 would’ve ended in 6 tops though. Don’t you get that ? You dumb ?
@@skubasteve8526 Bogut getting injured was an issue as well. People really sleep on his impact.
@@skubasteve8526green suspended and bogut injury
Running a ball screen every play is not an offensive system. That’s one reason teams struggled with the Dubs. A team running the triangle would be just fine vs the Dubs
If it was that easy , dont you think LBJ/Cleveland wouldve figured that out instead of losing to them 3 times? lol Give GSW their credit as a legendary great team
If it was that easy the warriors wouldn’t have won 4 titles in a decade
@@justyouraveragenoob1438 you don't even know what the triangle offense is. lmao
@@w00deey12the thing is, the warriors specialty has always been a switch heavy, help heavy defense. The problem with trying to run the triangle against the warriors is that their coach was one of the point guards for the dude who invented it. Few people on the planet know the triangle better than Steve Kerr, and the warriors themselves run many sets based off of triangle actions. Like, I've DEADASS seen steph, Draymond, and Klay triangles run from the logo BY DESIGN. So I'm not sure you'd want to run triangle against a team that in some ways runs the triangle themselves. Cause they'd probably recognize your sets pretty quickly
@@w00deey12 lmao, no explanation just dissmising, that shows you ain't got the balls. no bacc.
2022 Warriors > 2024 Mavs
2024 Celtics > 2022 Celtics
2024 Mavs > 2022 Celtics
Nope luka would got cooked on defense just the same 😭😭Marcus smart would have been on his ass
@@moneymoney3235 smart couldn’t stop butler u think he could stop Luka 😂
@@robsmith6650 luka would have got another record blow bys in the finals….
How tf did you come to this conclusion?😂
2025 Warriors > 2025 Mavs
2025 Celtics >2025 Warriors
2025 Celtics > 2025 Mavs
Nothing will change
Thats what Lebron did in 2016, he played perfect
And hoped that Draymond get suspended, the unanimous mvp hurt and their shot blocker hurt. Cavs caught a break congrats to them tho
Nobody is talking about Leflop!!
@@brandan2468good job at telling the complete story🙏🏿
@@darnellbrown9229 of course. I always speak facts
@@darnellbrown9229as stephen a smith said, the nba gave the cavs a stimulus package suspending draymond green in a close out game 5 at home in the bay area.....
There will always be a asterisk next to that cavs championship, especially now seeing that the warriors won 4 titles
The 2022 warriors are one of the weakest championship teams for sure
Sure buddy
