Long list of people not happy about Warriors winning NBA title

http://www.csnbayarea.com/warriors/long-list-people-not-happy-about-warriors-winning-nba-title

Thus, solely to remind you that not everyone has bought into the “THEWARRIORSRILEYCURRYTHISISTHEGREATESTTHINGEVEROHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD” narrative that will be your joy and burden to carry over the next few days, here is a list of people and organizations who are not happy that the Warriors are the new Face Of Everything. We’ll try to adhere to some form of chronological order, but we guarantee nothing....

1) DAVID KAHN: The spectacular failures of Kahn’s time as general manager of the Minnesota Timberwolves have now been capped by his decision to draft two point guards just ahead of the Warriors in 2009 – Ricky Rubio and Jonny Flynn. He lasted four more years in his job, amazingly, but he’ll be the guy who let Stephen Curry get away....

6) LEBRON JAMES: It must gall to suddenly discover that a new FOTL (Face of the League, you mopes) is now an equal, and that the drive to make people shut up about Michael Jordan comparisons has taken yet another detour – because when you say, “LeBron James is 2-4 in Finals,” what you’re really saying is, “I don’t understand basketball at all, and I never ever will.”...

8) LARRY ELLISON: He could be somewhere else, pretending that this could all have been his, too, but he screwed up and hurt Cohan’s feelings and managed to be one of the few people in NBA history to offer more money for something and be told no by people whose portfolios are worth approximately 1/50th his.
