BOSTON — The Warriors once again sit on top of the NBA’s throne, winning their fourth title in eight years on Thursday night in Boston. It’s an astonishing accomplishment—particularly in an era that’s largely been defined by roster turnover—that only Bill Russell’s Celtics, Magic Johnson’s Lakers, Michael Jordan’s Bulls and Tim Duncan’s Spurs can look down at.
While nothing lasts forever, this miraculous run is clearly not over. Steph Curry (34 years old), Klay Thompson (32) and Draymond Green (32) are all on the back nine of their Hall of Fame careers, but, as Curry said during the Finals, they all still feel like there’s plenty left in the tank. Look at how they played in their finest moments and it’s impossible to argue. On his way to winning Finals MVP and cementing himself as one of the two best point guards ever, Curry had the greatest game of his postseason career in Game 4: 43 points and seven threes in a must-win, on-the-road performance.
