In Game 6 of the NBA Finals, the Golden State Warriors defeated the Boston Celtics to claim their fourth championship since 2015. Kevin Durant commented on the Warriors’ recent triumph. It could be that one troll at a time may be tarnishing the legacy of Kevin Durant following his first-round sweep by the same team Golden State defeated in the NBA Finals. Durant was a member of the Warriors from 2016 to 2019 and helped lead the team to two NBA championships.

Kevin Durant will have to contend that he now has two fewer rings than Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson. On June 17, Durant tweeted: “I been dead since July 4th 2016, but congrats to the dubs and my boy Steezy, a Fillmore legend, man been waitin his whole life for a parade on market st.”

Furthermore, on June 13, he tweeted that he does not believe he struggles as a basketball player. A hater responded with the statement: “You shot 22-83, 7-21 from 3 and had 21 turnovers in a sweep. You for sure struggled in that series vs Boston.”

Durant appeared unfazed by the insult and took the jab with ease. Read Durant’s back and forth on Twitter below.

Kevin Durant’s Team Lost In The First Round

For the series, Stephen Curry led all scorers with 31.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 2.0 steals. Durant’s Brooklyn Nets were the victims of a sweep by the Boston Celtics in the first round of the playoffs. As a result, they watched the game from home after losing to the Celtics.

In addition, KD was told by a fan that he’s among the top 5 players in the league and reminded that others’ opinions are useless.

KD Involved In A Kobe Bryant Debate

In recent days, however, KD found himself involved in an argument about Kobe Bryant. Also, about Kobe’s attitude between winning three in a row and two additional victories after Shaq left. The fan noted that KD’s approach to the game is “At every facet of the game – and the height you’ve achieved is perhaps the highest anybody ever has.”

The fan continued, “Kobe is my favorite player ever – the diff between him in 05-06 vs 08-09 as an example is he imprinted his personality on every single player.”

Against The Odds Golden State Wins The Title-But Does That Make Steph Curry A GOAT?

Steph Curry MVP

Steph Curry and Golden State showed up and out last night, snagging their fourth NBA title. In just eight years the team has fought hard. And against all the obstacles and injuries they faced they came together to finish the series in six games against the Boston Celtics. On top of the NBA Championship title, last night Steph Curry won his first Finals MVP award. According to many NBA fans clinching this award makes Steph Curry a GOAT. But is that the truth? Does simply winning that trophy one time make him one of the greats of all time?

Why Are Fans Calling Curry A GOAT?

Immediately after Curry was handed the Bill Russel award fans took to Twitter. Putting Curry on the list of the top ten greatest players of all time. But some disagree. Without a doubt Curry has earned the right to be brought up in these conversations. The man has four championships, a finals MVP award, and is one of the greatest shooters.

Some of the comments that caught attention were, “My guy deserves everything, built this Warriors franchise and made it a Dynasty! TOP 10 ALL TIME GREAT!” “Steph Curry is officially sitting at the table with Jordan, Bron, Kobe, Shaq, Magic, and Bird!!!” On top of these comments, some fans even claim that Curry has now tarnished LeBron’s title as the GOAT and is going to surpass him. But still people are going back saying that  Steph Curry may be a GOAT when it comes to shooting. But he can’t control the game like other players, LeBron included, can. Many argue that there is a lot more to the game than shooting. Doubters of Curry’s seat at the GOAT table bring up his inability to rebound as well as his impact and control of the game. Only time will tell where Curry will end up on that list.

Regardless, Golden State and Curry deserve this, Congratulations to the entire franchise!
