Share this: Conor McGregor will never back down from a fight, whether it be physical, verbal or a ward of words on social media. And while McGregor has spent the past several months feuding with Floyd Mayweather Jr., the UFC fighter recently found a new target: Draymond Green. The Golden State forward took exception to McGregor rocking a No. 23 Warriors jersey, which Green currently dons for the reigning NBA champions. But after being called out, “The Notorious” informed Green that it actually was a player from Golden State’s past. C.J. Watson isn’t exactly a household name, so you might be wondering why McGregor opted for his jersey. That’s because Watson allegedly had an affair with Mayweather’s ex-girlfriend, Josie Harris, who Mayweather has three

NBA Rumors: Steve Kerr Could Return To Coach Warriors In NBA Finals
Share this: The Golden State Warriors could have a familiar face return to their sideline for Game 1 of the NBA Finals against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Sources tell ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne that Steve Kerr could return from his leave of absence amid health concerns to coach the Warriors on Thursday night. Kerr has discussed the possibility of returning with Mike Brown, who’s coached Golden State in his absence. And Brown is encouraging the move. “He’s talked about possibly coaching Game 1,” Brown told ESPN’s Michael Wilbon. “And I even tried to tell him, ‘Steve, you should do it … and if you don’t feel like you’re OK, half through the game, just go back in the back.” Kerr has been out of action since Game
Warriors Eliminate Spurs, Reach NBA Finals For Third Season In A Row
Share this: The Golden State Warriors faced little resistance from the San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference finals en route to a third consecutive trip to the NBA Finals. Golden State won by double-digits in each of game of the series to complete a sweep of the Spurs with a 129-115 victory in Game 4 at the AT&T Center on Monday night. The Warriors also are the first team to ever start the playoffs 12-0. Of course, the Spurs lost their best player, Kawhi Leonard, to an ankle injury in Game 1. San Antonio had a double-digit lead at the time Leonard exited in the third quarter of the series opener. From that point to the end of the series, it was all
Why A Toaster Might Be Responsible For Warriors’ Impressive Win Streak
Share this: The Golden State Warriors are piping hot … perhaps thanks to a toaster? The Dubs defeated the Phoenix Suns 120-111 on Wednesday, running their win streak to 13 games. Golden State hasn’t lost since March 11, which (coincidentally?) coincides with just before Warriors sharpshooter Klay Thompson graciously signed a fan’s toaster. Here’s Thompson’s initial reaction to being asked to sign the toaster on March 13. .@KlayThompson sorry that picture turned into a meme. But thanks for signing my toaster. — Ronnie • GSWToaster (@R_Dollaz) March 14, 2017 Apparently, the fan’s odd request all was part of his quest to have several Golden State players sign the appliance. It’s a journey that began in May 2014, judging by this tweet from the toaster guy himself. The
Poll: Could The 2007-08 Celtics Take Down Warriors’ Current ‘Superteam’?
Share this: The Golden State Warriors are taking the idea of an NBA “superteam” to a whole new level, and the rest of the league isn’t too happy about it. Paul Pierce was the latest to sound off about Kevin Durant’s decision to sign with the Warriors this offseason, making them the clear favorites to win the 2017 NBA title after posting an NBA-record 73 wins last season. Those comments didn’t sit well with Golden State’s Draymond Green, who fired back at Pierce on Thursday. Their bickering got us thinking: Can the Warriors be the best superteam of all time, or would a team like Pierce’s 2007-08 Boston Celtics give them a run for their money? That Celtics team, after all, went 66-16 and won
