Golden State Warriors

The selflessness of this team thus far 

For the most part, over the last few years, the biggest reason why this entire Golden State Warriors phenomena has worked is because they have checked their egos and have put the team first. Even though we’re beginning to see some cracks on that front, let’s not forget that this team has won three of the last four NBA Championships.

In other words, the damage has been done. And the Warriors have already been a success no mater what happens next. Even if this team breaks up tomorrow, we will always remember the Warriors.

Led by their fearless leader, Stephen Curry epitomizes everything that this team has been. He’s humble, doesn’t seek credit and talks up his teammates. The Warriors and their fans should be thankful this has worked for this long. The end is probably coming soon, but it’s been one heck of a ride.
