When living in Boston (1970-1985), I rooted for the Red Sox and Boston Celtics. After moving to West Coast (1985), San Francisco Giants, 49ers, and Warriors became my favorites. Gone were Parrish, McHale, and Bird, Curry, Thompson, and Green are my new basketball heroes. The NBA Finals between Warriors and Celtics were exciting & intense while listening to the radio broadcasts. Celtics are longer, stronger, younger, Warriors are older, smarter, wiser— a match between brawn against brain? Warriors had must-wins in Games 2 & 4, and Curry scored 29 and 43 points in them to keep their hopes alive. Thompson scored 21 in Game 5 while Wiggins scored 26 with 13 rebounds when Curry got cold. In Game 6 at Boston Garden, Warriors made a 20-0 run in first and 2nd Quarters to seal the victory. Steph Curry was given the NBA Finals MVP, an award he has yet to win, recognizing his greatness. Steve Kerr has 9 Championship rings— 5 as player and 4 as head coach, he made the Warriors a winner. — Peter Y. Chou Mountain View, 6-17-2022 |
