Why I Don't Like The Warriors

(And not only because I'm a Cleveland fan)

Why I Don't Like The Warriors
JackSSF

In a world where the NBA is dominated by play makers, there’s a lot of competition and a lot of hatred flowing freely. As an avid Cleveland sports fan, I back the Cavs (even though basketball isn’t my favorite sport), so this might make my article a little biased. But, to be honest, I would likely hate the Golden State Warriors regardless of the freshly sprung rivalry between them and the Cavs. I’m a girl who hates cocky players and players who play dirty. I’ve always been a firm believer that you should let your playing and your talent do the talking for you, rather than running your mouth and being full of yourself (I know this is true of a lot of athletes, but bear with me). With that being said, let me tell you the top reasons that I hate the Warriors:

1. They’re really just a bunch of crybabies

One time, Golden State fans called Lebron James a crybaby, but I don’t know how they can throw that insult around when their team is chock full of crybabies. Zaza Pachulia, Draymond Green, Steph Curry, Kevin Durant… must I continue? Any time something goes awry or they don’t get their way, they whine like a teething baby. At least Lebron has embraced his crybaby status (check out Intel’s 360 replay commercial).

2. Zaza Pachulia’s attack on Iman Shumpert’s manhood

Did y’all watch game four this year? Did y’all watch Zaza punch Iman Shumpert in his man parts? If not, here’s a link to the video.

3. Draymond Green

Draymond Green is probably my least favorite basketball player in the world; he claims that he’s “a lot smarter than people think,” but I don’t know how smart a person who consistently aims for other men’s groins can really be. He also talks a lot of garbage on Cavs fans instead of just silencing them with his playing. Most of his comments are just rude, and he has a big mouth on the court but doesn’t always back it up. If you’re gonna talk a big game, you’ve gotta play it, too.

4. Steph Curry’s Mouthpiece

Put. The. Dang. Mouthpiece. In. Your. Mouth.

5. Steve Kerr

Okay, maybe I don’t hate the guy, but he really couldn’t bring himself to coach a game with some back pain? What’s that all about? I’ve had my back completely out of place, yet I’ve gone to work where I stood on my feet for eight hours a day and I didn’t complain about it. Suck it up.

I know that there are a ton of people who hate the Cavs, too, and that’s totally okay! Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but dang. I could never root for a team led by a baby-faced point guard (who doesn’t even go by his real name, which is Wardell, for reference) or ball-tapping backups. I just couldn’t. Don’t get me wrong, there’s a lot of talent on that team, but there’s also a lot of attitude. Anyway, see you next year, Warriors.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
