The Golden State Warriors were able to win their fourth title in eight years on Thursday after they knocked off the Boston Celtics in Game 6 on the road. It capped off an impressive run for the franchise after they were given a 0.1% chance to win the title before the 2021-22 season began.
Steph Curry won the Finals MVP award for the first time in his career after they won the title after dropping 34 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists in the clincher. He did not win the award in any of Golden State’s previous three title runs as Andre Iguodala won in 2015 and Kevin Durant won in both 2017 and 2018.
After it was all over, coach Steve Kerr compared Curry to one of his former teammates, Tim Duncan. The two of them are humble, they are great human beings, and they are obviously supremely talented.
Steve Kerr: "[Stephen Curry] reminds me of Tim Duncan. From a humanity standpoint, from a talent standpoint, humility, confidence, it's a wonderful combination that makes everyone want to win for him. Without him, none of this happens. To me, this is his crowning achievement."

Now, Curry and the Warriors get to celebrate another championship during this amazing run they have put on. The Golden State dynasty might have just picked up again with this fourth championship.
