NBA Fans Troll Ja Morant And The Grizzlies After Klay Thompson Lifts Warriors To Game 6 Victory: "Warriors Own The Grizzlies."

It's 2022, and Klay Thompson is still delivering huge games for the Golden State Warriors. In Friday's crucial Game 6 against Memphis, the 5x All-Star poured in 30 points and 8 rebounds in the 110-96 closeout victory.

On Twitter, fans lauded Klay's performance and acknowledged Golden State's return to the Conference Finals. They also took the opportunity to troll Morant and his arrogant Grizzlies team.

The Warriors are heading to the Conference Finals.

They are INEVITABLE.

“Hey Ja, how many games did the warriors win?”

Warriors in 6

The Grizzlies were a formidable opponent for the Dubs. Not only are the Grizzlies younger, faster, and more athletic, but they are also well-coached and know how to control both ends of the floor.

Sadly, we didn't really get the chance to see this Memphis team at full strength throughout the series. Ja Morant went down for these final games, and his presence could have changed everything for the Grizzlies.

Nevertheless, it's the experience and talent that pushed Golden State over the edge. With Curry, Thompson, Draymond, Andrew Wiggins, Jonathan Kuminga, and Jordan Poole, the Dubs have a deep core of players that can score the ball with ease.

They've really turned it on since the postseason began and now stand just four wins away from another NBA title.

"I'm gonna have the Warriors because I feel like they've hit a point where they, they're in championship mode and it ain't about who's doing it, how they doing it," said Kevin Garnett, "it's about playing together, continuity, talking to me like you've seen the cylinders are firing they, they're playing on another, another level right now."

The Warriors now await the winner of the Suns/Mavs series, with no guarantees about the future. But with Curry and Thompson leading the way, the Warriors look pretty good heading into the third round.

It will be interesting to see if any team stands a chance against them and just how much farther they can go in this run.

Bill Russell Once Explained Why He Didn't Bother With Celtics Fans: "When I Was A Star, The Fans Called Us The 'Boston Globetrotters' Because The Celtics Had Black Players."

While the NBA is a beacon for freedom and tolerance in America, things didn't start off that way. In a place like Boston, during the 50s and 60s, racial tension was a pretty serious problem, and superstar big man Bill Russell had to deal with it on a game-to-game basis. Today, it can be hard for us to imagine just how difficult being a black basketball player really was back then. Fortunately, we have some clips: "The number one paper was the Boston Herald and they didn't like the idea of an NBA team having black players. Out there, the star was Bob Cousy. No matter what I did, Cousy was the star. I remember I had a game where I had 25 points, 25 rebounds, 10 blocks, and the Boston Herald said I was lucky to play with Cousy." Unfortunately, the media didn't give Russell his respect back then. Despite being the best player on the court, and on his team, Cousy and others always got the spotlight. Even the fans weren't very accepting of Bill: "I didn't...

From Deep: At long last, Nikola Jokic's Nuggets can envision getting to the top of the mountain

Jamal Murray tore his ACL on April 12, 2021. Leading up to that night, he'd been playing at an All-NBA level for two months: In a 25-game stretch, Murray averaged 24.1 points on .509/.459/.935 shooting splits, 4.2 rebounds and 5.2 assists. He was even more efficient than he was in the bubble playoffs, and his defense had improved, too. Murray only got to play with Aaron Gordon, the Denver Nuggets' big trade-deadline addition, for five games. They won them all except the one in which Murray got injured. In 110 minutes, their new starting five scored slightly more efficiently than any iteration of the Kevin Durant-era death lineup in Golden State and defended like a top-five team. Two Nikola Jokic MVP awards later, Murray is back. So is Michael Porter Jr., who signed a five-year extension about a year ago and needed back surgery nine games into the 2020-21 season. The Nuggets remember how easily everything slid into place with Gordon in the mix. Newcomer Kentavious Caldwell-Pop...

Sixers' James Harden backs teammate Joel Embiid for MVP: 'He deserves it, man'

James Harden has been a member of the Philadelphia 76ers for less than two months, but that's been more than enough time for him to appreciate the brilliance of Joel Embiid. The duo is expected to help the Sixers compete for a championship, but Harden believes another trophy should be on its way to Philly this year. In an interview with Ramona Shelburne of ESPN, Harden backed Embiid for MVP, saying "he deserves it, man." "I've only been here for a few weeks, but I already see his mindset," Harden said. "He wants to win. Some guys just want numbers, but he has both. He has the mentality of winning, and he scores the ball at a high level. I think he's prepared himself, especially coming off last year, for this year to be one of his best years." This has indeed been one of Embiid's best years. He's averaging a career-high 29.8 points, 11.3 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.4 blocks while shooting 48.8 percent from the field and 35.8 percent f...
