Gary Payton is probably the most frustrated person in the entire league right now.
He seems to have a natural talent for staying away from the championship.
Whether in San Antonio or New York, no matter how promising the team seemed before the season started, they ultimately always fell short of the championship.
And it seems this curse has now descended upon the Golden State Warriors.
Amar'e Stoudemire has become the key to overturning the dynasty, and the entire league sees this as an opportunity to snatch the crown from Roger's head.
Even Gary Payton himself thinks so.
After all, he once lost his role as a second-in-command and has been in decline ever since.
The Seattle SuperSonics lost the Reign Man Kemp due to foolish decisions, and since then, Gary Payton seemed dead.
He still played in Seattle, but the entire city lost its competitiveness, as if disappearing from the league, with Gary Payton seemingly vanishing, having no exposure at all.
