    Nor do they need to be until beaten.
    It does make beating them that much sweeter though...

    "Narcissus died admiring his own reflection, and if the Warriors keep swallowing their own compliments, they just might do the same."


    LOL What does that even mean? That the Warriors might lose because they aren't humble? They won 73 games, they don't have to be humble if they don't want to.

    Beating a loudmouth always adds a little extra satisfaction. I'm sure the Spurs will taste a little of that satisfaction if they beat GS in the WCF. I'm certain everyone here will remember ever jackass thing they said along the way, if that happens. But I don't think their arrogance will make them any easier to beat.

    Not busting your chops for posting it, Ducks. it just sounds like a little sour grapes from the author. , a lot of people like them BECAUSE of their swagger.

    They're pretty goddamn good. If you want to humble them, you gotta beat them.

    They're young and extremely good, so it is what it is.

    Not all of their players run around flexing tho. For example, some of their bench players.

    In the short run you're right. (Unless they don't take the opponent seriously and fail to prepare but I know Kerr wouldn't allow that). But, long term, hubris is a weakness and it has derailed many a dynasty. Ask Kobe and Shaq. Ask Jimmy Johnson and Jerry Jones. We already see little signs of tugs of war over the credit and they've only won one le. Throw in the fact that as Charles Barkley says, a jumping shooting team has to be perfectly tuned to win, and this long term success of the warriors may not having staying power at all. Someone will solve them. It wouldn't surprise me if it is us.

    We'll see.

    I kinda like having an arrogant rival. Adds to the pleasure of beating them.

    Definitely. I so hope this team steamrolls to the WCF and face those punk Warriors.
    And I truly hope Pop has some tricks up his sleeve going in.

    Think that's what he meant, but I can see how it can be interpreted either way.

    Yeah, that's what I meant. But no one ever accused me of thinking clearly!

    People hated LeBron...Not 1..Not 2...Not 3 etc.

    But also I think people respected LeBron back then due to him being dominant on both ends of the court and his dominant performances during his first Cleveland stint.

    Warriors have it easy right now..the media is obsessed and they've had luck on their side with injuries until maybe now but eventually things will get tough and if they handle adversity well great but the media can turn on you real fast lol

    draymond does give spurs some props to spurs longevity 27 minute mark.

    but he also thinks they only had 4 losses they truly lost this season

    Arrogance is a character flaw. It is a weakness that can be exploited.

    Also, do you play harder against assholes...or really nice guys?
