Story of Golden State Warriors' 2016-17 Championship Season

[@tawseefa1051]

Congratulations GSW from a Heat fan. I know how it feels to be the villain of the league cause when we won our first ring with LeBron, everyone was hating on us just like this lol. But it don't matter if you have the championship, you have the championship and nobody can take that away from you.

[@r_aguilar68]

@Tawseef A...as a GSW fan, thank you. That was a real classy comment. CHEERS!!!

[@clutchbot0279]

Tawseef A At least you're a loyal heat fan, not a cavs bandwagoner

[@rddc408]

Tawseef A the first championship the heat won was in 06 with Shaq and Wade.

[@tawseefa1051]

rddc408 yeah that's exactly why I said "when we won our first ring WITH LeBron"

[@rddc408]

Tawseef A sorry bro I was really high

[@nickterz5857]

one of the best NBA teams of all time without doudt

[@razkable]

Thats how they went 16-1...now they didnt really play anyone so...I think a lot of teams could beat them in a series

[@vainh3cz755]

Asmosis Jones excuse

[@Terror832]

Actually the GOAT team. This is the greatest Warrior version of their 5 year run. KD + solid bench + elite Draymond and a chip on their shoulder for blowing that infamous 3-1 lead.

[@jimjim3979]

@@razkable who? Name 2 teams who could beat them . YOU CAN'T. 1996 bulls are the only contenders. 2000 Lakers 1986 Celtics 1987 Lakers 1983 Sixers 2003 Spurs 1971 Lakers That's the best teams ever but I think not one of them all can beat them

[@hans1279]

@@jimjim3979 i agree. This is the beginning of the hate for the other teams the warriors literally crushed. It's really hard to admit for them but on this year the world saw the greatest team to play ever.

Kevin Durant is not the best player in the world what are u snoking

[@ifeellikeyeezus8525]

Quincy Huntley idk what are you snoking?

[@deadeyepickle9844]

Guys always remember that they didn't just win because of Stephen Curry or KD it's because of the chemistry, friendliness of each other, they also didn't win by offense they also won by defense I know they could be dirty sometimes but sometimes you have to play it risky.

[@Fightback2023]

Love them or hate.. fan or not fan, one thing you can't deny is Golden state warriors are one hell of team and nobody can replicate it in the next 10 years.

[@razkable]

Heat spurs lakers were better than them since 2000 and cavs could equal their titles in 2018...wtf you mean....they got lucky with health in 2015 while cavs weren't added an mvp to a 73 win team who almost lost 4-1 to the only challenger out west they had...overrated ass team. Can't wait till wade and bron expose them

[@bralenwilliams4464]

Asmosis Jones I didnt think they have the strength as they did 2016. They lost Kyrie and Drose is injured now for the whole season and i just feel like they dont have the strengt( anymore

[@cashmontoks]

Asmosis Jones heat better than the gsw 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@UFCFan28]

They deserved it more than Cleveland. Glad they rule the Nba now cause Cleveland isn't winning another title for another 100 years.

[@shalva90]

Hi all the supporters of the warriors,We, in Georgia, were watching and celebrating all games during this year, this was fantastic season, thank you all, now we can say that warriors have additional 3.5 million supporters from Georgia, you can say that it isnt much but remember these people changed the rule of choosing athlets for allstar game;) :))Thank you Zaza

[@GunterJPN]

Zaza is coming back to do it again!

[@heatnation7191]

I will give props to the warriors organization for achieving what every tanking franchise wants: Draft a young superstar, surround him with stars, sign a huge free agent. People talk about Philly's supposed "process", hell Golden State was The Process before The Process Still hate the warriors

[@ArifSamin]

Someone that speak some sense instead of being overly salty. Stay true my man.

[@faded039]

HEAT NATION 😂😂 I aint a warriors fan, im actually a laker fan but i hate them right now they suk, but I agree, warriors took the time to grow and become a championship team, with trust, hope, and belief, they did it.

[@123123roo]

Golden state didnt quite do it like you said they drafted 3 guys who became stars and put really good roll players around them then added a ALL STAR.

[@jarettblack9713]

What a great championship season, they had to go through some really tough battles!! I just know its gonna be just as tough next year. I wonder if they'll make it to the finals..... the competition is really fucking thriving now a days since Kd left

You bein sarcastic?

[@jarettblack9713]

No shit I'm being fucking sarcastic.

[@ethd7320]

Well the reason the Nba isn't competitive is because Westbrick drove Kevin away. If Westbrook left instead of James harden then Kd would still be in Okc

[@ethd7320]

Lol the thunder is a joke of a franchise

[@cyruz25]

i remember their first game when they lost vs the spurs everybody already counted them out saying all kinds of bs 😏

[@fumeultraarchie470]

If you notice on the first game of their 2016-2017 season they lost to the Spurs 100-129. But when they won the finals they won by 129-120. Coincidence?

[@javianjohnson8746]

This feels so right. The title feels right residing in the Bay. It felt weird with the Cavs being the defending champs. Glad we can go back to normal with the Warriors raising another banner to start this season #DubNation

[@therealnoodles7638]

5:06 This will always be the best finals in recent memory. I loved this run, and the memories that came with it. Wish I could go back in time

[@JerryVoo]

I started watching the NBA in 2014 the first ever team I watched I felt in love with how they past the ball so well and was shooting threes and how they work together so well and all have a common goal which is the championship and did was successful for 5 years 2015-2019 and how they was doubt after that 2016 73 win season and came back and won 2 chips and made finals again in 2019 the warriors did something special in this 5 year span and to this day I’m still a warriors fan and hope we come back stronger next year 💙💛‼️

[@joesakic91]

Nice explanation by Greg Papa. In one year, the Golden State Warriors went from a 3-1 collapse in 2016 to a 16-1 demolition in 2017 to win back the NBA title.

[@anthonybryant2676]

My team beat Cleveland fair and square in the Finals this year, second title in Oakland

Dang i miss the good days.

[@joesakic91]

From a 3-1 collapse 2016 to a 16-1 domination in 2017. That's how I view the 2017 Golden State Warriors.

[@CroBer09]

Funny how Cavs fans (ex Heat fans) keep on telling 3-1! Warriors 2017 Champions yessssssssss!

[@jonathanvargas546]

This team came out and breaking records. Beating the healthy cavs makes them more dangerous. People say that its an easy ring for Kd but we all know nothing comes easy in the west. If the current GSW stays healthy there's no doubt they can make a 3-peat. The chemistry of this team is so defferent. And of course the coaching staff are doing a hell of a job for making a good ball movement every possession that leads to championship.

[@biongrenn8010]

great vid. few distorted scenes but great. happy for the supporting crew especially the old timers. west, zaza, javale. it must be very sweet. superteams came and went some didnt spell success. more superteams will emerge but this team will forever be remebered. hats off. great job.

[@armin38822]

The west is not as strong as it used to be in the last few years but you can't say this ring is cheap because of bad competition. In the finals they were going against LeBron James the second best player of all time with good supporting cast. And it was still 4-1.

[@superlex611]

armin38822 but Kevin Durant was the cause to get himself a ring

[@poolfans]

GSW loss the 2016 final with a Historic 73 wins and 3-1 lead choked. That’s why they signed KD 2015 GSW won the final, people was saying Cavs should have won if not for Irving and Love injuries. 2016, GSW choked. People laugh for 1 whole year. Cavs is the best. LJ is the best player of all time, MJ step aside. If 2015 and 2016, Cavs were the better team so why can’t GSW signed KD? 2017 kD joined GSW, people criticised its not fair.

Haters will hate because their team doesn't know how to draft and develop players like curry, Klay, and draymond while signing key free agents such as KD. There's been plenty of super teams before that didn't work out. Warriors worked out because the team is unselfish and they don't care whose team it is. They care about what matters most - winning. That is why they're better than every team in the NBA. They're talented and they know how to play as a team while being unselfish. Suck it.
