Here’s what the two stars had to say about critics
Throughout the entire off-season, fans and some players have questioned the legitimacy of the Golden State Warriors Championship. The Warriors have surprisingly remained quiet to rest up and refresh their bodies for their toughest task to date and have ignored all outside chatter after hoisting up the trophy in the Bay Area over the summer.
From playing an injured Memphis Grizzlies team collective, avoiding the San Antonio Spurs, Dwight Howard admitting to playing with a torn MCL and meniscus; and a depleted Cleveland Cavaliers team – we’re still lost at why anybody would think this was an asterisk title achievement.
Even newly acquired Rockets guard Ty Lawson claimed that Curry didn’t have defensive responsibilities past the second round and feels Houston can send them home next spring.
While the Warriors enjoy the Larry O’Brien for another 13 days before the 2016 campaign, Stephen Curry and Draymond Green took it upon themselves to defend Dub Nation and their title run.

Stephen Curry on ESPN.
“I apologize for us being healthy, I apologize for us playing who was in front of us. I apologize for all the accolades we received as a team and individually. I’m very, truly sorry, and we’ll rectify that situation this year.”
Draymond Green asked about people saying Warriors don't deserve to be champs: "If they're saying that, they're not the champs. It's simple."

Draymond Green: "Gregg Popovich didn't say that. That's 1 org that I really respect. And you haven't heard anybody in their camp say that."
