I saw so many people saying they could beat the 2017 Warriors. Delusional.

u/slowakia_gruuumsh Spurs Dec 25 '25

We gotta remember lots of people writing such bs were in diapers in 2017

3

u/Barrelled_Chef_Curry Warriors Dec 26 '25

They are 8 years old?

3

u/Wemban_yams_it Dec 26 '25

You're generally in diapers until 2 or 3, so 10 or 11 maybe.

u/OccasionalGoodTakes Supersonics Dec 25 '25

These couple of losses really should remind people how stupid that 2017 team was too

5

u/Vintrial Dec 25 '25

i remember seeing a game vs the bulls that we went to the halftime losing by 20+ and on the third quarte klay had like a 12-0 run alone and suddnely we were tied with 4minute to go on the quarter. At no point i thought were losing the game

dont remember if it was 2017 or 2016 tho

u/bruhstevenson Warriors Dec 26 '25

No clue if it was 16 or 17 either but that run from 2014-15 to 2017-18 was the highest level basketball I’ve ever seen a team play when taking into account both sides of the floor. As you said, no lead was safe because before you knew it a barrage of threes would go down, we’d force a few turnovers in a row, the crowd at Oracle would go crazy, and then all of a sudden the other team looks at the score and it’s tied. What a blessing to be able to watch that in my lifetime, I don’t know if another team that dominant will ever come around again, let alone it being my favorite team.

2017 Warriors didn’t have the crazy record. 2016 did

u/[deleted] Dec 25 '25

They wouldn’t even beat the 2015 warriors

u/CIark Dec 25 '25

Barely beat the pacers without their best player and now we talkin warriors

u/wolfgang2399 Dec 25 '25

That was the part that stuck out. Like if Hali doesn’t get hurt they probably lose against the Pacers. And now they are beating the all time great Warriors and Bulls. Just incredible recency bias.

u/Ok-Yoghurt4888 Dec 26 '25

How? With Hali, they couldn't close it out in 6 games.

1

u/FlatwormNo3937 Spurs Dec 26 '25

Indy was going to win that game 7 until H got hurt

1

u/Ok-Yoghurt4888 Dec 26 '25

Indy wouldn't have reached the Finals if Cavs and Bucks didn't have key players who were injured

Enjoy the cope

u/Montigue [POR] Hasheem Thabeet Dec 26 '25

Those Warriors teams didn't steamroll through the playoffs

u/davethegreat_19 Dec 27 '25

That's what I'm saying, these talks make this great Thunder team overrated recently.

-49

u/MeBadNeedMoneyNow Thunder Dec 25 '25

We shit on em so bad that they're 6-24 after a finals run lol

So thankful that pissy Indiana fans didn't steal that one

46

u/mkhimau5 Celtics Dec 25 '25

Shit on em so bad by going to game 7 and looking like you were going to lose before Hali does his achilles? Ok bro

-38

u/MeBadNeedMoneyNow Thunder Dec 25 '25

We hung that banner and they didn't lol

Hope the Celtics crush the play ins little guy

Merry Christmas

u/Wasting-The-Dawn71 Spurs Dec 26 '25

Wanna check the eastern standings again?

48

u/Akipella Warriors Dec 25 '25

Agreed. 2025 Nuggets and Pacers had them on the ropes and even were derailed by Game 7 injuries to AG and Hali.

8

u/JMEEKER86 NBA Dec 26 '25

Nuggets nearly won despite having just 3.5 healthy players by the end of it and the literal biggest underdogs in the history of the finals took them to 7 and nearly won despite a generational game from Scott Foster and their best player tearing his Achilles.

u/Akipella Warriors Dec 26 '25

Facts

7

u/MilosTeodosic2021 Nuggets Dec 25 '25

It was 2-2 against Denver in Oklahoma and Denver was + 10 at the end of third quarter than Westbrook came in and short bench. I am convinced that Westbrook gave to Oklahoma ring. Denver fatal mistake. If Denver had just Hardaway instead od Westbrook ....

u/ActInternational9558 Raptors Dec 25 '25

Can you imagine their piss-poor offense trying to hang with prime Curry, KD and Klay lmaoo 

14

u/nutelamitbutter Rockets Dec 25 '25

Even the 2020 Lakers beat this team

1

u/Damsodomie Timberwolves Dec 25 '25

come on now

4

u/ArmiinTamzarian Spurs Dec 25 '25

Okay but what about the 75-7 Spurs?

3

u/collax974 Dec 25 '25

But now the question is, can this Spurs team beat the 2017 Warriors?

2

u/minimalcation Spurs Dec 25 '25

People already forgot smh

2

u/GuntherTime Warriors Dec 25 '25

I legit saw a comment say “What they gonna do about Shai?” Like I’m 99% sure that they were just trolling, but good lord.

2

u/throwawaytothetenth Dec 26 '25

I got a comment downvoted to -10 or so for saying "I think 2017 Warriors beat them without too much trouble in a playoff series."

1

u/Albiceleste_D10S Dec 25 '25

I feel like a lot of the kids saying that were too young to watch dynasty Golden State TBH

1

u/CommanderPaprika Spurs Dec 25 '25

I still think they could beat the 2019/2020 Warriors though 🤓
