The Golden State Warriors are leading the NBA Finals two games to one against the Cleveland Cavaliers, but there is a lot of noise from fans and the media regarding the inauspicious play of Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson so far.

When it rains it pours. The Golden State Warriors were blown out by the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday night in Game 3 at Quicken Loans Arena, and the action didn’t stop there.

As we all know, the Golden State Warriors defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers in convincing fashion during Game 1. The game may have been close for a full three quarters, but the Warriors pulled away in the fourth quarter behind gutsy performances from Shaun Livingston and Leandro Barbosa. Livingston led the team with 20 points, while […]

Before he became the head coach of the Golden State Warriors, Steve Kerr was an NBA commentator and on Friday he showed signs of his old self. After the Warriors’ practice, Steve Kerr gave a priceless impersonation of his former commentating colleague Marv Albert. Seems like Steve Kerr can do it all. https://vine.co/v/iY1X9m9d6iQ [button width=”full” […]

The Golden State Warriors beat up the Cleveland Cavaliers 104-89 on Thursday night in Game 1 of the NBA Finals.

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr and clipboards just don’t get along. He’s developed a habit of breaking them in the past, and it happened once again during Game 1 of the NBA Finals. His team was in a funk to start the third quarter, allowing the opposing Cleveland Cavaliers right back into the game with lazy […]

Steve Kerr is angry. In fact, the Warriors head coach was so angry with how his team opened the third quarter of Game 1 of the NBA Finals against the Cavs that he decided to take it out on a poor, unsuspecting clipboard. Tough luck, clipboard. https://vine.co/v/iYbx6ULrdD2 This isn’t the first time Kerr has taken […]

For all of the accolades and records he has set, Stephen Curry still has more than his fair share of critics. Despite leading the Warriors to an NBA record 73 wins while pouring in over 400 3-pointers on his way to a second consecutive (and first unanimous) MVP award, people are always finding something to […]

With the Golden State Warriors set to take on the Cleveland Cavaliers for the second straight year in the NBA Finals, it only becomes appropriate that we take a look at recent rematches in NBA Finals history. You don’t have to look too far back for the most recent back-to-back NBA Finals rematch. It took […]

Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr had a bone to pick. That bone was undoubtedly for all of the detractors that questioned his star MVP Steph Curry for lacking grit, determination and ,most of all, toughness. Curry certainly looked like something was wrong early in the Western Conference Finals, missing wide open layup attempts, not making all […]

Thanks in part to an amazing performance from Klay Thompson, there will be a Game 7 in the Western Conference Finals. Thompson broke the NBA record for most three-pointers made in an NBA playoff game (11), which was previously held at 9. Coach Steve Kerr credited Thompson’s great shooting, when reporters asked about winning a hard fought […]

Compared to some coaches in the NBA, Steve Kerr really isn’t too tough on the officials. However, his facial gestures last night might’ve scared them in a way that words could not. With a little over two minutes to go in Game 5 between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night, […]

The Golden State Warriors find themselves in an unfamiliar position. Entering Game 5 at Oracle Arena, the Warriors are trailing the Oklahoma City Thunder 3-1.

The Oklahoma City Thunder have dominated the Golden State Warriors in all aspects of the game and now hold a 3-1 lead heading back to Oakland for Game 5 on Thursday. The domination has come as a major surprise to anyone who watched the Warriors’ record breaking 73-win season and the play of MVP Steph […]

Stephen Curry hasn’t looked himself in the Western Conference Finals. All of the things that made him special during the season that won him a first time ever unanimous MVP award seem to not be as effective. Curry is usually able to  move around the perimeter with ease, even if being thronged by a defender. […]

Draymond Green is on thin ice as Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals approaches tonight. In what’s the most important game of the season to date for the 73-9 Dubs, one of their best players might have to tone down his actions just a bit if he wants to stay on the court. The NBA’s […]

With the Thunder leading the Warriors 48-40 in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals, Golden State’s Draymond Green kicked Oklahoma City’s Steven Adams between the legs and received a flagrant-1 foul.

It looks like Stephen Curry will be good to play in Game 3 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. After taking a bad tumble in Game 2, Curry had swelling in his right elbow.

Golden State Warriors fans have more of a concrete scapegoat to direct their anger towards after a stunning Game 1 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The crowd went nuts, the Warriors’ players were in shock, and Steve Kerr was left speechless. But one guy in the crowd had more important matters to tend […]

Any NBA fan would agree that the Portland Trail Blazers achieved more than anyone thought they would in 2016. Entering the 2015-16 season, the Blazers were pegged to be one of the worst teams in the NBA after losing four of their five starters from the 2014-15 squad. In other words, it was Damian Lillard […]

Although the Golden State Warriors defeated the Portland Trail Blazers in five games, it doesn’t do justice to just how competitive of a series it really was. While the Warriors were the No. 1 seed and the Blazers the No. 5 seed, both teams were evenly-matched throughout. As the series concluded on Wednesday night with […]

Most modern NBA fans know that Steve Kerr has been part of the two best NBA teams ever: this year’s 73-9 Warriors as a coach, and Michael Jordan‘s 72-10 Bulls in 1995-96 as a player. With that pedigree, Kerr certainly has a unique perspective on who the best player of all time is, and how […]

Kerr told Tim Kawakami of the San Jose Mercury News before Game 2: “(Curry’s) doing pretty well. … He’s making the improvement […]

Last year Alvin Gentry left the Warriors staff to coach full time. Now Luke Walton has agreed to a 5- year deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Warriors couldn’t be happier for him.

The Golden State Warriors have been absolutely dominate this season as they look to reach 73 wins.
