Warriors Forward Andre Iguodala Thinks Thunder Were the Better Team

The Golden State Warriors beat the Thunder in seven games in the Western Conference Finals, but apparently not everyone on the Warriors believed they were the better team. When making an appearance on Power 105.1's The Breakfast Club, Golden State forward Andre Iguodala said some interesting things about the series and the Thunder in particular.

"Now that we got KD, I can say it — they were the best team in the league last year, in the playoffs. They were better than us, and they were better than Cleveland."
"They should have won a championship," Iguodala said.

OKC held a 3-1 lead in the series, but ultimately weren't able to close it out despite having an opportunity to do so in front of their home crowd in Game 6. Here's video of Iguodala's interview in the Tweet below.

Despite Iguodala's comments, it looks like Kevin Durant didn't feel the same way, seeing he's now a member of the Warriors himself.
