Stephen Curry swished a deep three-pointer midway through the third quarter, backpedaled down the court and allowed himself a quick indulgence.

As the Boston Celtics called a timeout to gather themselves, the Golden State Warriors star turned to the sideline and pointed at his right ring finger. There were 18 minutes left, but Curry was sure his fourth championship was already in hand.

The Warriors defeated the Boston Celtics, ­103-90, in Game 6 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night, completing an exhilarating comeback from a 2-1 series deficit to complete a 16-6 run through the playoffs to win their fourth title in eight years.

Curry, who finished with 34 points, seven rebounds and seven assists in the closeout victory, claimed his first Finals MVP award as a unanimous selection. There was no debate, given that his 43-point masterpiece in Game 4 flipped the series in Golden State’s favor.

I can’t stand Lebron, dummy.

My post shows Curry procured 4 champs in 3 years less time.

I think he’s saying and I would agree, the Golden State Front Office did a fantastic job bringing in complementary players that played great.

Guys like Andrew Wiggins, Jordon Poole, Otto Porter, and they have two really young players who look like future stars in James Wiseman and Jonathan Kuminga.

Curry was hurt at the beginning of the playoffs and other player had to carry the team for a couple of games, in game 5 of the finals Curry scored 16 and did not make a 3-point for the first time in forever and the Warriors still won the game as Andrew Wiggins was fantastic.

Why is anyone watching an infomercial for the Communist organization Black Lives MatterTM?

The team owners, the network, the league, etc. all hate you.

Congrats to the Warriors but to their leftist coach Steve Kerr not so much.

Wow. The NBA finals. Back in the day, before the NBA went woke, I used to follow every team. I followed the players, the coaches, the teams, the trades, the standings and everything. As I lived in San Antonio, I supported the Spurs.

But it was about 10 years ago, when Popovich started his anti-American hatred against morality and decency, that I began to unfollow the Spurs and all of the NBA.

Pro sports. Yet another thing leftists have destroyed.

The Game is boring anyway. 120 to 115 scores are a joke. Give me scoring in the 80’s and tough defense.
