Shaq Predicting The Warriors Championship

Shaq was one of the first and only people to be predicting the Warriors winning this years NBA Championship at the beginning of the season. I know Shaq has been roasted before for his some bad takes and predictions, but I think we all have to give Shaq some credit for this one...

In China , only one commentator called “Shen zhi yu” who predicted that GSW would harvest the NBA champion in 2022 and Steph would be awarded FMVP for the first time . He did that prediction before this season , Steph got to know this prediction later . Curry invited him to celebrate together in the locker room as long as GSW could get that title . Shen zhi yu didn’t go to USA to join the champagne party due to the Covid-19 ， but he contacted Steph in a live webcast after Game 6 . The commentator still opened some champagne to and celebrated with Steph at last .

[@jikk4146]

Lol fr. suns choked. There was a tweet that the current Suns roster build is the same as the 2018 Houston Rockets and totally, it was true. They're just a regular season team..

[@Garf2O]

I could see people saying that if the context was "will he stay healthy", but it must feel great for klay though, being out for so long and to get another championship when he finally got to come back and play again normally.

[@kingofgrooveness]

What I like most about klays comeback is that he could've come back alot earlier but he wanted to wait and get game ready before returning. He forced some stuff early but when he found his groove about a month in you couldn't even tell that'd he'd been out for 2 seasons

[@Jarekx2007]

Klay wasn't even that good. Wiggins, Poole, GPII, Looney, the other guys stepped up big and the results speak for themselves.

[@dracowolfe305]

@@Jarekx2007 I agree, but as soon as I saw the team chemistry pre-season as we were heading into the playoffs, it reminded me of the 2015 warriors.

[@HonorGuard117]

I like how GSW manage their team. They build their players from the ground up, and don't go discarding and trading and buying etc. They make the most with what they got and so far it's been working with the likes of Andrew Wiggins, Jordan Poole etc. Steph Curry, Klay, Draymond all been there since the beginning. They just learned to develop their skills and grow the franchise even bigger.

Thank you Shaq! I was a fan since your days at LSU. I always wanted you to play for the Warriors but I'm glad you support them to the fullest.

[@htfanai3447]

Shaq knows how great Stephen Curry is, not only because he was his favorite player but because he was the one that can do what he can't do in a whole new level on the highest ever and no one is even even close still even to this days he wish he could shoot like Stephen Curry what he can never ever do in his whole carrier on his prime. The reason why he is so obsessed and love Curry is because he knows best how embarrassing it was when you can't shoot no team can overcome him physically but when they start to hackashaq that's when his lack of shooting really started to haunt him in the game he really don't like that at all....

[@charlesconner9044]

[@thehylianloach9473]

Respect from a Celtics fan, they taught our kids a lesson that they will hopefully grow from next year. Congrats

[@philobeddoe8342]

The Celtics need more dimensions to their offense. The Warriors just had much more they could do offensively in the half court and it showed. Both teams are very good defensively but the Celtics don't have a one man defense buster like Steph. Well nobody else has one of those, so don't feel bad. People are gonna give the Celtics shit about the turnovers but from what I saw a lot of them were from solid defense. Of course there were some silly and unforced errors all teams have those. The Celtics should turn Smart into a Gary Payton II type that gets more minutes and get a true point guard to run the offense.

[@racktech6384]

Congrats to Boston too, you guys made it to the final. Bright future ahead for the young team and that experience will even make you guys more lethal.

[@pedromoreira2875]

As warrior fan, if it wasn't us against Boston I would have been rotting for y'all like my own team. I really want them to win since they try to play the right way.

[@mromero1113]

Good for Shaq, doesnt go as a hater, but a supporter! Gives credit where credit is due. That's why people love him. The envious-of-greatness and hater roll goes to Chuck, Perk. Damn.

[@KxCynuous]

It was always an uphill battle for Boston. We already knew they werent going to replicate the first game in the series bc two of Boston's players basically had career high nights that never done that on a consistent basis. Second.....GSW had been going against the most stacked teams on the west (which in my opinion was a far better conference than the other) and the dubs straight bullied their way to the finals. Third, no one taught Boston how to WIN A CHAMPIONSHIP, and not just win it, but literally take it by force.

[@imadubsfan1]

Celtics were definitely a great team and probably the most challenging opponent for the Warriors on paper. But this series clearly showed how inexperienced the Celtics were on all levels. They made it to the finals like how any team should, with a formidable, top tier defense. But other than that they were unprepared and overmatched in every way. Didn't correct their turnover problems, couldn't keep up offensively, couldn't hold leads when they had it, couldn't overcome adversity when they lost twice in a row for the first time in the playoffs, had issues losing at home, and after letting Curry in game 4 almost single handedly save the Warriors, they made the mistake of over game-planning against Curry for game 5, which let the rest of the Warriors get hot. That's inexperience. Not to mention a lot of the times they were playing for the whistle to be blown (relying on the refs) more so than playing to actually win.

[@OneShotGamingg]

I called it, I said they would have two years of rebuilding & redevelopment, and then win the chip right after that. The way golden state plays, it’s the closest thing to the 90s bulls we’ll ever get to see. I’m not saying they’re the 90s bulls but the system, obviously with Kerr and the triangle offense. Similarities are there for sure

[@cancel.lgbtq.6892]

Well yeah , 2 years of Klay not on the floor plus DeAngelo wasn't do much to help them. This year they are healthy with addition of Wiggins so they were pretty much stacked and next year Wiseman coming back. GSW gonna win another 1 or 2 more championship before Steph retires.

[@Lola-kh9cs]

@@cancel.lgbtq.6892 I hope so, the dude deserve it. And honestly watching them play it's really entertaining

[@guyinsf]

Unlike some other commentators, Shaq doesn't let personal bias or jealousy get in the way of his commentating and analyzing. He's secure with his own legacy enough to let it stays where it is and not affect his admiration and praising for current greatness. When I hear some others speak about the Warriors (Chuck for example) I hear disdain, bias and jealousy.

[@normalposter6072]

No Chuck is cool too. He is a straight shooter and he didn’t like golden state because until Curry & Klay showed everyone, he didn’t really believe that ‘Jump shooting team’ could win the championship. He has changed since
