Ayesha Curry has found herself at the forefront of some controversies over the past year. Of course, it all started when she talked about the lack of male attention she gets in light of being married to Steph Curry. Many were outraged that she would be seeking approval from other men despite being married, while others tried to defend here. More recently, Curry was called a hypocrite after posting some bikini photos. In the past, Curry had stated that she didn't like seeing women showing off their skin on social media, so the bikini pics seemed contradictory.
Well, to make matters a bit complicated, Draymond Green was caught liking a tweet that criticized Curry for her hypocrisy. Of course, Draymond and Steph are teammates to liking a tweet like this definitely comes across as a bit awkward. Eventually, Twitter sleuths found out about it and exposed Green for his most recent like.
After this information went semi-viral on social media, Green immediately unliked the tweet and it is nowhere to be found from his page. Clearly, he didn't want this to become a big story or perhaps, the like was a complete accident. At this point, we'll never really know.
As for the Warriors chemistry, well, they won't have to worry about that until next year.
Steph Curry Leads Anti-Trump Chant At Bay Area Protest
Steph Curry is the latest NBA player to lend his voice to the protests around the United States.
George Floyd was murdered by police in Minnesota a couple of weeks ago and his death has sparked protests all throughout the United States. At this point, people are simply fed up with police brutality and they want real solutions to be brought about. These demonstrations have proven to be extremely important in the fight for equality and numerous athletes have been doing their part to speak out and help bring real change to the people.
We've seen NBA players like Giannis Antetokounmpo, Damian Lillard, and Jaylen Brown participate in protests and now, Steph Curry is doing so as well. In fact, Curry was spotted protesting in the Bay Area on Saturday and throughout the afternoon, he was leading “Donald Trump has got to go” chants.
Curry has been known to use his voice quite a bit over the years. In fact, when the Golden State Warriors won the title back in 2017 and 2018, Curry and his teammates refused to participate in the customary visit to the White House. Instead, they had their very own private meeting with Barack Obama.
Throughout the next few weeks, we will certainly be seeing even more athletes getting involved in these protests. This is an important cause and it's clear that many are well aware of the stakes.
Steph Curry Explains What People Have To Do To Create Change
Steph Curry is sickened by what happened to George Floyd.
George Floyd’s death at the hands of the police has led to widespread outrage, and justifiably so. As of right now, protests continue to rage on throughout the United States and people are looking for both answers and timely solutions. Unfortunately, our leadership doesn’t seem to be interested in any of that right now.
Golden State Warriors superstar Steph Curry has always been vocal about injustices and recently, he shared his opinion on what’s been happening in regards to the Floyd protests. As reported by NBC Sports Bay Area, Curry explained how people can seriously affect change and how it’s going to mean getting uncomfortable for a little while.

“It’s just crazy, how many examples do you need,” Curry said. “This one, I actually found out from [Stephen Jackson]. He’s been posting like crazy trying to make sure his partner is memorialized the right way and they remember his name and he’s taken that on his back. But until people outside of our community speak up, use their platform, get uncomfortable and actually feel some type of emotional change to the issues then we are just going to be in the same situation. That, to me, is the thing I’ve been watching on social media, if we can actually get some solutions. To raise your voice and get mad and get angry and you hate doing it over and over again, but we got to figure out some solutions to this problem and they got to be accountable to it.”
Curry’s words certainly ring true especially with how protests have gone down. People have been leaving their homes in large numbers to protest injustice and it seems like many are ready to fight this battle for weeks and perhaps even months if need be.

Kendrick Perkins Makes Case For James Harden Over Steph Curry
Kendrick Perkins always comes through with some interesting arguments.
Kendrick Perkins has steadily been one of the more interesting basketball analysts to listen to since he retired. Most of the time, people disagree with whatever Perkins has to say but as someone who used to play in the NBA, he certainly has some valid criticism and praise to dish out. Today on First Take, the show revealed that in a top 15 NBA player ranking, James Harden was placed sixth while Steph Curry was fifth.
Following this revelation, Perkins went off on a rant about how Harden is actually a better player than Curry. While Curry has all of the rings, Perkins noted that Harden is a better scorer, passer, and rebounder which would by default make him better than Curry.
"James is a better scorer than Steph Curry. James is a better rebounder than Steph Curry. James is a better facilitator than Steph Curry," Perkins said.
Perkins' arguments are very sound here although, from a pure optics perspective, it's hard to put Harden above Curry. Curry is one of the best shooters of all time and will most likely be considered the best once all is said and done. Meanwhile, Harden has a history of choking in the playoffs which means you have to dock him a few points.
Let us know in the comments below where you fall in this debate.

Ayesha Curry Labeled A Hypocrite After Posting Sexy Bikini Shots
After Ayesha Curry posted some photos of herself posing in a bikini, she was called out for her hypocrisy due to some past remarks about showing skin.
The Internet never forgets, Ayesha Curry learned this weekend. After posting a few photos of herself showing off her toned figure while posing in a bikini, Ayesha was dragged through the mud for doing exactly what she had publicly denounced women for doing a few years back. In the shots, which she captioned, "Took me long enough," Ayesha showed off her post-baby body that she's been working hard at ever since giving birth to her and husband Steph Curry's third child, Canon, back in 2018.
While she received a flood of positive comments as many of her followers drooled over her hot bod, others pointed out how she used to judge other women for wearing revealing clothing and showing some skin.
"Everyone's into barely wearing clothes these days huh?" Ayesha wrote in a tweet dated back to 2015. "Not my style. I like to keep the good stuff covered up for the one who matters." Some folks took to Twitter to criticize her for being a hypocrite.
In addition to these photos taken by her hubby, Ayesha also posted a photo of the two of them on her IG story, captioned, "Mom n dad."
Kendrick Perkins Speaks On Steph Curry Beef During 2018 Finals
Kendrick Perkins maintains that he never tried to harm Steph Curry.
Kendrick Perkins is a controversial man these days thanks to his peculiar hot takes in relation to the game of basketball. Perkins played in the NBA for just over a decade and was known as a big man who could do some real damage in terms of physicality. This has made him a polarizing analyst with many fans loving or hating him.
During a recent appearance on ESPN's "Hoop Streams," Perkins spoke about something that occurred near the end of his career. Of course, we are talking about the infamous Steph Curry tripping incident during the 2018 NBA Finals. As Perkins describes, he still doesn't know why Curry was mad and maintains that he never did anything wrong.
“First of all, I don’t know what I did wrong,” Perkins said. “Right? I’m sitting down. I didn’t move, I didn’t do nothing. I’m sitting down, chilling, right? I’m minding my business. We’re getting beat, he’s doing his thing. He said that I tried to trip him. I’m like, ‘Bro, I didn’t move my legs. I didn’t stick my leg out. I was sitting the same way the whole time. What are you talking about?’ ” And I was just like — you know what I told him? I said, ‘Steph, man. Chill out, man. For real, before I make you smell my cologne.’"
In the end, Curry got the last laugh as his team swept the Cleveland Cavaliers en-route to a third NBA title.
Gabrielle Union Told Steph & Ayesha Curry To Break Up & Be Thots
Gabrielle Union told Ayesha Curry in the early stages of their relationship that she should break up with Steph Curry and sleep around.
Steph and Ayesha Curry ended up living happily ever after but when they first started out, they were advised by none other than Gabrielle Union, Dwyane Wade’s wife, to stop seeing each other and sleep around.
Of course, at the time, Gabrielle Union had no clue that they would end up spending years together. At a birthday party a long time ago, when Steph and Ayesha had first started dating, Gab told Ayesha that she should stop seeing the basketball player and consider testing the waters. At that stage in her own life, she was off being pretty naughty, according to D Wade.
During an Instagram Live session with the Curry Family, Gab and Dwyane recounted the conversation.
Kevin Winter/Getty Images“In 98, you was rollin. She was a thot in 98,” hilariously said Wade about his wife. She agreed and said that she ended up giving that same advice to Ayesha.
“I was! Listen, I enjoyed my life. And that is the exact advice I gave to Ayesha and a young Steph,” said Union. “I was like, ‘You guys, the likelihood of this working out is very low. You should just break up now and have sex with other people.’ I used different language but is that not what I told y’all both?”
Ayesha chimed in, remembering the exact words that the actress used.
“You looked at me and said, ‘How old are you?… Okay…'”
The humorous exchange ended with an apology from D Wade on behalf of his entire family.

Steph Curry & Dwyane Wade Debate Heatles Vs. Warriors
Steph Curry has only one way of determining which dynasty was better.
Throughout the first half of the 2010s, the Miami Heat dynasty with Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade, and LeBron James ran supreme. Following the Heat's run, it was the Golden State Warriors that dominated the second half of the decade. For some, the Warriors are an all-time great dynasty although there are some out there who feel like the Heat were actually a better team overall.
Recently, D-Wade and Curry hopped on an Instagram Live session together and had a friendly debate about which dynasty was better. As Curry explains, he wasn't in his prime when the Heat were dominating the league and that he wishes he could have been able to test his skills against them. The Warriors superstar also had a funny solution to this debate saying they should have a match on NBA 2K to answer the question, once and for all.
While Wade had a good laugh at the suggestion, he noted that he sucks at 2K and that Curry would beat him in a blowout which isn't exactly fair. Regardless, both players acknowledged how great each other's teams were and it's clear Curry and Wade have a ton of mutual respect for one another.
Let us know in the comments below which team you think was better and why.
