Steph Curry's Snarky Comment After Warriors' 2015 Title Win Over Cavaliers Came Back to Bite Him
Welp, four years later, it appears a bit of karma has caught up to Warriors superstar Steph Curry.
There's no denying this 2019 postseason has been a nightmare from an injury standpoint for Golden State. But did Steph's reaction after winning the '15 Finals come back to haunt him and the rest of the team?

Yikes. As you can see, a snarky Curry trolled all the haters who ripped the Warriors for having an easier road to an NBA Finals victory due to injuries to their opponents.
Fast forward to present time, and Kevin Durant suffered a torn Achilles in Game 5 of the Finals, while Klay Thompson tore his ACL in Game 6. Durant also missed a large chunk of the playoffs with a calf injury.
While we're not saying Curry is responsible for his teammates going down, his comments from years prior might bring a smile to fan's faces in Cleveland this week.
Golden State’s Klay Thompson has suffered a torn ACL in his left knee, his agent Greg Lawrence told @wojespn.

So Thompson tears his ACL and Kevin Durant ruptures his Achilles. Brutal.
With Durant and Thompson both set to be free agents this summer, the Warriors' dynasty as we know it could be coming to a close. Hope you enjoyed your titles, Mr. Curry. Could be a while before you get another shot at claiming one.
