My friends and family is out there and it is confirmed, it is pretty crazy. Also around noon, there were a few gunshots and people got injured. Freakin’ Oakland.

oakland was doing so well, too. the only thing that happened after the win were hella people dancing and a sideshow, which may or may not be related to the warriors. its oakland, so sideshows happen all the time for no reason.
people getting shot at the parade is ng. 3 people shot, 1 critical.
Kobe and MJ were far from humble. Just watch MJ’s HOF speech lmao.
I love trash talking but only when players are clever or subtle with it. Saying “they suck” is some grade school crap.
Yeah MJ’s HOF speech was really spiteful and arrogant, however during his playing days with the Bulls he maintained a very good public image and sounded polite and well spoken in his press conferences and interviews. When asked who he thought was the best player he would always say Hakeem Olajuwan. Kobe’s arrogance and knocking down his teammates publicly has all been done while he is still a player, which just isn’t very bright.
They’re friends so this is how he refers to Shaq everytime he sees him. What’s up 4?! Shaq has to take it in good faith. He could call him a ring chaser, come on man, MIA, CLE, then BOS, where’d you play PHX too?! pointing to your ring finger, hah. the big Shaqtus was a good name tho, can’t lie
Would be better if we only heard it offhand but, Champions are unlike other people - THEY DONT ACKNOWLEDGE ITS A TEAM GAME! I mean, they do what they want. Kareem has been surly for like 75 years.
Lance Stephenson, triple double machine, then "crazy headcase"
Ron Artest, defensive MVP “DarkHorse regular MVP” lol “I could score 20/10 but want to defend”
Bruce Bowen stepping under people taking long 3’s - “only god can judge me,” later not admitting anything - righteous asshole who nobody acknowledges, the NBA changed the rules to stop that dangerous shit. Or at least watched out for it more. He lost a step and was forced to do crap like that.
That guy on OKC with 30 brothers and sisters or whatever, Z-Bo punched him in the face in game while walking backup court and he didn’t retaliate, and everyone hates him being clumsy/controlled crazy in the paint bumping people, beyond anything Bogut does.
So Draymond’s being I dunno Oakley+Gary Payton. As much as he gets beat up in the lane defending, he better have a mean streak. Getting people off their game worrying about you is part of it, so refs take notice and don’t just let LeBron offensive foul you, bcuz you are a nobody. Shit, beat up injured JoakiNoah’s hate for LeBron probably helped him get up for those games.

I said as humble as their egos would allow.
I never said they were humble. I was saying they never went off the deep end the way Draymond did.
As for MJs HOF speech, I never thought it was as bad as some people say. I listened to it though,perhaps his body language tipped the scales.
You know all of this shit that Draymond is talking screams: “Somebody PLEASE give me a max deal.”

Why do people all of sudden think mj is humble lmao
tim duncan cant be #1 from his joey crawford beef
photo from a halloween party him and TonyParker are stabbing a crawford referee jersey guy
Dirk cried and didnt want to be on court to celebrate, running back to the locker room - “Did i really win?!”, and never admitted how good his teams were if they were championship capable.

some people don’t get humor. tim duncan has a very sarcastic brand of humor.
dirk was overcome by emotions. being emotional has nothing to do with humbleness.
is this what these instances are being spun into in history?
being humble is boring as fuck, but at least tim and dirk can still have fun while not shitting on other peoples worlds.
it’s not rare for them not to be humble. Part of being at that level -not NBA level but superstar level- is confidence. They kinda have to believe themselves they are the best player in order to play the best basketball. Check Harden, Paul George and other rising stars. They all think they are the shit cuz that’s what makes them better
Also Joey Crawford is pretty well known for being a dick and pretty unlikable.

Joey Crawford is a bitch. Timmy still the most humble
Anyone hating on anyone for hating joey crawford is uninformed as to what a dickhead craw is. I mean really? How could anyone question DA GAWD Tim Duncan anyway?
Dude has a better resume than Kobe and is the best EVER at the PF position. He even found a hot girlfriend in one of the fattest cites in America. Duncan even has no problem with his most popular current nickname being “Old Man Riverwalk”. Try calling Kobe old and you’d be blasted and dissed to Jesus and back.
This isn’t even half his accomplishments and you still barely ever hear him say anything overly complimentary towards himself. I actually would like him to be more arrogant because he gets looked over far too much.
Probably the best humble player in NBA history. This is a game that usually rewards cockiness, more than any other game imo.

every team needs that crazy guy everyone would hate to play against but would love to have as a teammate, for the warriors that would be draymond. id probably want to punch the shit out of him if he didnt play here

Richard Jefferson and Jarret Jack though…
Shit must hurt when you leave a team and they win a championship 1-2 seasons later.
