Twitter reacts to the Golden State Warriors winning back-to-back championships and LeBron possibly leaving home.
Was there any doubt that the Golden State Warriors would have their way against LeBron James? Yes, they had a golden opportunity to steal Game 1 (and give us free Doritos Tacos), but thanks to J.R. Smithās flub, that ship sailed, and with it, their chance at knocking off the kings of the NBA.
It seemed like Cleveland never really got over that mental lapse, but the truth of the matter is they were just waiting for the Warriors to exert their will on them. Golden State is the textbook definition of a superteam. Yes, weāve had great trios, but the Warriors are a collection of talented players who know their roles, which is something the Cavaliers struggled with throughout the season.
There was never any doubt that Golden State was going to be back-to-back champs. Outside of King James, the Warriors were not in the least bit afraid of the Cavs. They knew that they were the superior team, and in the game when it mattered, they displayed it.
So, now that Quicken Loans Arena is quiet, let us hear from the loudest section of the NBA fan universe, NBA Twitter.
Sit back, and enjoy.
The Warriors are celebrating like Villanova beating the best intramural team on their campus. Mostly because thatās what it is.

This was never an even matchup. Once J.R. Smith threw away Game 1, we knew they were done for.
This had to be the dullest championship celebration ever.
These Warriors are special, but people should slow down before dismissing the 96-98 Bulls as the dynasty of my lifetime. An all-time defensive team had the greatest player ever who scored when he wanted to.

Why should we have to slow down? The Warriors dynasty is right up there with the 1996-98 Bulls in my opinion.
This was breaking news at the start of the third quarter.
Thereās still hope, Cavs fans.
Nah, heās out, bruh.

I told everyone that KD had Finals MVP wrapped up at the end of Game 3.

That look you have when people tell you LeBron is better than you.
