    If I was commissioner I would suspend him, just to send a message to the entire NBA that no matter who you are and no matter what the situation is, you do not throw anything at a fan.

    I think there is a possibility he may retire if they win on Sunday... Unless he wants more rings and to basically break every record of importance.

    And I thought Stern's NBA was chicken shit. Silver takes the trophy with the way he's let Green and Curry and the Warriors give the finger to everyone involved.

    GS is like the most immature entitled prick jocks in your high school, who never grew the fuck up. First they were coddled and enabled by their parents, then their coaches and teachers, and now the NBA.

    Nice league ya got there, Silver.

    Lebron James says he's sick of these Warriors' bull shit. It ends now.

    Go out on top, winning it for the 'Land.

    People don't realize how much basketball he had played in his 12 seasons

    He can't play and be the Blazers new color commentator at the same time.

    Just lost a lot of respect for Steve Kerr. He said, three times, that the officiating didn't impact the outcome. Ok fine, then stop bitching about it.

    I get that he's trying to lobby the refs for Game 7, but he really sucks at it. Phil was no less whiny, but he was smart enough not to directly insult the officials the way Kerr did. He basically told the officials that if they don't give the MVP preferential treatment, they aren't doing their job right.

    I fucking HATE situational officiating. It destroys the integrity of the game. They should suspend him for Game 7. If they let him play in Game 7, but suspend him for the first game of the regular season, that's cowardly bullshit.

    That was an embarrassing temper tantrum by Curry. He embarrassed himself and the league on their biggest stage. That's the kind of temper tantrum you see from a young child when they don't get their way. Fortunately, most normally adjusted children outgrow such behavior by the time they are 6 years old. It was one of the most immature displays I've seen by a grown man. Kerr is right. He's the MVP. He should represent the league in a more respectable manner.

    I've bashed Green for his antics, but have let Curry's celebrating and taunting slide. You get to trash talk when you can back it up. But that shit crossed a line. Suspend his whiny, entitled ass.

    Steph Curry == The Baby Faced Ass.

    Complete bullshit by the league. That game was so influenced by the officiating. Curry and Thompson get grabbed, held and knocked when they come through the lane, and Curry fouls out on 4 bullshit calls.

    I'm not defending Curry's actions when he got tossed. You can't do that. However, I completely see why he is frustrated.

    Brilliant move by Kerr after the game. The Warriors should get a lot of calls at home in game 7

    The NBA just wanted a 7th game, the warriors can now be allowed the win, at home in front of their "fans" and the league will have squeezed out every dollar they could.
