The Warriors are the Champions

So it finally happened for Golden State. They won the NBA Championship with first year head coach Steve Kerr. The last time they won the whole thing was in 1975 which was 40 years ago. I have been very impressed with how they have played all season. What I really like most about the team is that they share the ball a lot. They averaged about 24 a game which is really good. In basketball, there are always superstars of course but I love to see chemistry with the players.

I am so happy that Steph Curry got the MVP of the season. He definitely deserved it. In the playoffs this season he had an incredible amount of 3 pointers. He hit 91 of them on his own. That's not an easy thing to do. During the Finals, he had some brilliant games and some performances that wern't so good but he sure is a favorite of mine and he sure had the determination and will to win it all with his teammates.

I was a little disappointed with Klay Thompson. For some reason Curry and Thompson were having the worst luck hitting threes which is ironic because they were the top duo in the NBA with hitting threes. I know he was playing the best he could but unfortunately offensively shots weren't going down for him. Every player in the NBA have their off nights though. Even Lebron James, who earlier on in the Finals made a controversial comment that he was the best player in the NBA doesn't always have his shots go down.

Lebron James though played amazing in the Finals with what he had to work with. Kevin Love earlier on in the Playoffs got injured and unfortunately that ended his season. After Game 2  of the Finals, Kyrie Irving injured his knee. Even though I wasn't rooting for the Cavs it was tough to see another big star get injured. James had other players he could work with but it wasn't the same with out Love and Irving. In 4 of the 5 games of the Finals James had at least 30 or more points.

These Finals were by far my favorite out of all them. They all came down to the last minute and who doesn't love that. Blowouts are great when your team wins but it's even more fun to see it come down to the last wire. That's what the Warriors and the Cavs did. They all worked and played hard and gave their hearts out on the court.


Congrats to the Warriors! They had an amazing season with a young team and a first year head coach. I know there are fans out there saying that if Love and Irving weren't hurt they would have definitely won for sure. They sure could have but now I am interested to see what lies in store next season with both teams.
