The Golden State Warriors beat the Cleveland Cavaliers during Game 4 of the 2018 NBA Finals on Friday night (June 8). The final score was 108-85, earning the Warriors the championship for the third time in four years.
The Warriors’ win on the Cavs’ home turf marked the first sweep since 2007, when the Cavs lost to the San Antonio Spurs.
By reaching four consecutive finals and wining three of them, the Bay Area team is now tied with Magic Johnson’s Los Angeles Lakers (1985-88 with the Celtics winning in 1986) and Bill Russell’s Celtics (1957-66 with the St. Louis Hawks winning in 1958).
Naturally, Twitter exploded with reactions to the Warriors’ sweep and several Bay Area rappers joined in, including Lil B, G-Eazy, E-40, B-Legit and Mistah F.A.B.

If Curry is Drizzy then you know whats coming!
By hip hop, you mean a handful of Bay Area rappers, right? Because the Bay is the only area rejoicing that a 73 win team, who added the 2nd best player in the game, did what everyone knew they were gonna do at the beginning of the season. Half the nation called this last June and the other half were praying the Rockets wouldn’t fall apart. KD hopped on an already built juggernaut’s back while Lebron is the juggernaut with the team on his back (with a JR and chain around his ankle). And bring up Miami all you want, joining forces with Wade and Bosh is still a better look that joining a team that just beat the record for most wins in a season.
And knocked you out of the playoffs after you choked, can’t forget that.
You’s a salty mothafucca drink some water
Lebron fans always making up excuses. Just take the L.
Basketball is for fools
So the person who created it (a white man) is the biggest fool of them all.
You quoted an mc hammer tweet.. You lost
