This is quite possibly the most random vine mix of Stephen Curry clips we’ve ever seen…but it doesn’t make it any less hilarious.

Tell us how you really feel, Mr. Vescey. You just know there were plenty of folks waiting four years to get that tweet off, and Peter seized the moment perfectly…but was it premature?

Dunk of the Night

As unlikely as it may have seemed when the series began, Kawhi Leonard is a strong candidate for Finals MVP. Especially if the Spurs were to finish the deal (up 3-1) back at home in Game 5 with Leonard playing another great game.

That first dunk was nice, but the second just seemed to have a little extra…funk on it.
