Stephen Curry is truly one of the all-time great's
“You don’t wanna see us next year”, These were Stephen Curry’s words on May 21st, 2021 after a disappointing loss to the Grizzlies in the Play-In Tournament. About 11 months down the line, the Warriors have stepped up and claimed what is theirs, their opponents have bowed down, and the haters are nowhere to be seen, as the Golden State Warriors clinch their 4th NBA Title in 8 seasons.
Stephen Curry has dismembered his critics, obliterated every hurdle on his way and has led the path for Golden State to rise from its ashes to the their rightful throne. The Golden State Warriors are NBA champions after coming away with a 103-90 victory over the Boston Celtics in Game 6 of the NBA Finals at TD Garden on Thursday night.
Shooting over double-teams from the logo, crossing people over and shooting beyond half court, step backs under pressure, runners off one leg from 35 feet, simply the greatest display of shooting we’ve ever seen! In the end, Curry, once again, led the way for Golden State on the offensive end. He finished the series-clinching win with a team-high 34 points, seven rebounds and seven assists, adding yet another chapter to his already storied career.
The rest of the Warriors offered Curry plenty of help as Andrew Wiggins, Jordan Poole, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson all scored in double figures as well. On the other end, the Celtics were led by Jaylen Brown, who did all he could with 34 points, seven rebounds and three assists, but unfortunately for Boston fans, it wasn’t enough to extend their season one more game.

Stephen Curry grabs his Finals MVP, extending the last 5 Finals MVPs, as the last 5 All-Star Game MVPs
There was a lot of speculation about where Golden State will be at the end of this NBA season, after suffering their worst couple of years in recent history. People forget that ‘Warriors’ is their name, a part of who they are, as Poole found his groove, Klay made a comeback after being out for 2.5 years, and Curry, well he being the Chef has deep fried all his opponents. After having gone through so much, Golden State have reinstated their position back among the elite, with Stephen Curry as their ‘Achilles’ .
Apparently there was a ‘deadly assassin’ on the lose at the TD Garden by the name of Stephen Curry, amid Game 4 of the much awaited battle between the Champions of The East and West, as the ‘Baby Faced Assassin’ took multiple victims in his ‘shootout’ against the Celtics, en-route to his maiden NBA Finals MVP. Stephen Curry has been called many things, from ‘Baby-faced Assassin’ to ‘3-point God’, but the Finals MVP is something that had eluded him for the past decade.
Warriors coach Steve Kerr said – “I’m thrilled for Steph. To me, this is his crowning achievement in what’s already been an incredible career. I’m obviously thrilled for everyone in that room, and a lot of people had a big hand in this, but the thing with Steph is, without him, none of this happens.”
This championship also caps a long four-year road between titles for the Warriors. The 2018-19 season ended with an NBA Finals loss to the Toronto Raptors in which Kevin Durant sat all but 12 minutes due to injury. The horrific end to the 2019 NBA Finals, which saw Klay suffering a torn ACL, coupled with 2 of their worst seasons in recent history, some people were assuming the dynasty had died, well, seems like it won’t so soon.
Curry’s last dagger came with with 3:17 remaining. He drilled an open 3-pointer to give Golden State a 96-81 lead that was finally too much to overcome. Curry put the Celtics to bed with a goodnight gesture and spent the last three minutes celebrating the fourth championship of a storied career.
If any defense in the league was celebrating Stephen Curry being past his prime, you will be in drowned by his 3’s, as the 2-time MVP is showing no signs of stopping. Every time the 3-point God descends on the court he mesmerizes us with his divine shooting ability, setting an NBA Finals record in the 1st quarter of Game 1 itself. Stephen Curry is undoubtedly one of the greatest of all time, the shift he put in to fend-off the Boston Young Guns was a performance for the ages, as for being compared to Lebron, he might have to continue putting up these insane numbers for the rest of his career.
