AD was the unsung hero of the 2015 playoffs. That crazy double clutch 3 at the buzzer not only beat OKC, but won NOP the regular season series, since they had to beat SAS in game 82 of the regular season to tie OKC in the standings. I think KD and Serge would've played in spite of their injuries and may or may not have ended GSW's season. Not only that, but NOP winning the very last game of the regular season changed GSW's path to the WCF. SAS went from the 2 seed to the 6 seed just like that. And the whole "Cool story, Glenn" narrative was underway. Many thanks, AD, my pick for Honorary Warrior For Life.
My favorite NBA season of all-time, watching those every game after getting knocked out of the first round in 2014 by the Clippers: 286 3-pts made by Steph, that 37 points in a quarter by Klay, Kobe "passing the torch" to Steph in Pre-season, Draymond owning Blake in regular season, the ball-movement, the black-sleeve jersey, clutch shot of Steph to send the team into OT vs Pelicans, the handles of Steph vs OKC, and so on, so many to remember, then especially the Championship
Andre Iguodala, Andrew Bogut, Harry Barnes, Shaun Livingston, Leandro Barbosa, Mo Speights, Ezeli. Before KD, before Boogie Cousins, before the second chip, it was just Steph, Klay, and Dray. And these guys. One thing that I always look back on right before the 2016 offseason is what made the Warriors The Warriors; Strength in Numbers.
This is a great idea. I'm going to love reliving the glory. After this injury-plagued, crazy season, it's kind of like that palate cleansing ice cream at the end of a course in some expensive restaurants.
One of my very favorite Warriors memories was opening day of the 2015 season. I'd had a season's ticket for the 2014 season, my one and only, but I was back for this one game and excited to see what Steve Kerr could do with these Warriors.
That first game. It was just magic. Breathtaking. The ball movement. The constant cuts and team play. I'd been watching the Warriors since the '75 championship and never seen anything remotely like it. Only the 2013 Spurs had it but here it was unleashed. Unbridled joy with all these young players. It was like hearing Bach for the first time.
What Kerr and Curry and everyone else have given us over the last 5 years is the most beautiful basketball I've ever seen. If someone had told me at that game that it was the beginning of one of the greatest dynasties the sport had ever seen, with multiple championships and accolades, I would have said, "You're f***ing right it is."
