Klay Thompson's Dad Carmelo On The Rockets? 'Serious Threat To Warriors'

Published | Updated

Klay Thompson's dad, Mychal, says the Warriors better hope the Carmelo Anthony trade is dead, 'cause if the Rockets get Melo, they'll be a legit threat to dethrone his son's team.

Houston's already stacked with James Harden and CP3 ... so we asked Thompson -- a former NBA stud himself -- if acquiring Melo would make the Rockets the best team in the league.

"You add Carmelo Anthony to Chris Paul and James Harden, you gotta take them serious."

But is it enough to topple KD, Steph, Klay and Draymond?

We also talked to Mychal about Klay's epic dance moves in China ... guess where KK got those moves.

Dwyane Wade is giving the big thumbs-up to Steph Curry's new $201 million contract with the Golden State Warriors ... telling TMZ Sports he wants to see even MORE players getting monster contracts.

"Hopefully the game continues to grow. Hopefully, they keep making more money," Wade told us as he arrived in L.A. after his insane European beach vacation with Gabby Union.

We also asked about that lonely banana boat pic -- the one missing Chris Paul and LeBron. The Wades were still laughing about it.

And on the fashion tip ... Wade ditched his dog man purse -- in exchange for another fashion risk. And he's REALLY proud of it!

GETTIN' DOWN

Here's video of Klay Thompson going full EDM DANCE MANIAC at a nightclub in China -- fist-pumpin' and tongue-waggin' like his life depended on it ... and it's pretty awesome.

Klay posted up next to the DJ booth at Face Club in Shenzhen on Wednesday -- when Tiesto's track "Wombass" took hold.

Thompson got super into the music -- he spun. He crotch-grabbed. He bounced around a lot. Everyone loved it.

One person at the club tells TMZ Sports there's a good reason Klay wasn't mobbed -- he had a full team of bodyguards watching his back so he could let loose.

UPDATE:

Steph Curry has weighed in with an emoji reaction ...

The Golden State Warriors star hit up the restaurant, Delilah with his wife, Ayesha, and some friends to party with the likes of Utah Jazz star Rudy Gobert and others.

Draymond Green Shades LeBron At Warriors Parade 'You Started The Super Team, Bro!'

Published | Updated

Draymond Green just threw some MAJOR shade at LeBron James at the Warriors championship parade ... mocking the Cavs superstar's comments about never being part of a "super team."

Green took the stage to vent his true feelings about the King saying he's never been a part of a super team ... and D.G. explicitly defended his team and general manager Bob Myers in front of approximately 1 MILLION Warriors fans.

"Can somebody give Bob some f***in' credit?" Green says. "Everyone talkin' about super teams this, super team that, 'I never played on a super team' ... you started the super team, bro!"

Of course, Draymond also talked smack towards the Cavs when GSW won the title back in 2015. Chances are these teams will match up again in the Finals ... and luckily for us, the smack talk will continue.

Steph Curry Tattoo House Call ... After NBA Finals

Published | Updated

How did Steph Curry celebrate his 2nd NBA title? Tattoo party at his mansion!!

TMZ Sports has learned ... the Golden State Warriors star summoned Bay Area tattoo artist Nino Lapid to his home Tuesday night for a Curry family ink session.

Curry got Hebrew letters tatted on his arm -- but we're not exactly sure what the message was. Guessing it says something about destroying the Cavs?!?

Steph's dad Dell also went with a message on his wrist ... while his wife, Ayesha, also got some body art -- though her tat is also secret for now.

Steph's sister and mom were also at the home for the needle sesh. No word if they participated.

Win a ring, get new ink, repeat.

NBA Covers Up Flubbed Finals Merch … Warriors in 6?

Published | Updated

Moments after the Warriors beat the Cavs, the official NBA Store was selling a 2017 Finals pin commemorating how Golden State took the series 4 games to 2.

Problem ... considering that's not how it went down.

At first, we thought the 4-2 was a reference to the #42 the team rocked on their jerseys this season in memory of Warriors legend Nate Thurmond who passed away last year.

But today, we noticed the 4-2 pin had been changed -- and now sports a 1-4, a clear reference to the number of games each team won in the Finals.

The whole thing begs the question ... WAS THE NBA IN ON A CONSPIRACY TO EXTEND THE SERIES TO 6 GAMES FOR RATINGS?!?!?!

Probably not ... but the pin -- and the refs -- didn't do the league any favors.

We reached out to the NBA for comment -- no word back.

Kevin Hart Kevin Durant's Mom Still Spanks Him (Congrats, Though!)

Published | Updated

Kevin Durant just whooped some serious ass on the court (sorry, LeBron), but Kevin Hart thinks the Finals MVP is still getting HIS butt kicked off the court by “The Real MVP” -- his mama!

Everyone saw Wanda Durant getting all motherly with Kevin during the post-game festivities at Oracle Monday night, including KH, who took to his Instagram to congratulate KD and get a couple jabs in.

Kevin's thoughts? Basically that Wanda still lays down the law old school style on her boy -- by actually spanking him -- and Hart can tell this from the way she was all up in his grill after the game.

It's pretty hilarious stuff ... the (much) smaller Kevin did manage to give Durant props for winning his first title ... although he told TMZ Sports he was rooting for LeBron before the series.

Golden State Celebration Included Gunfire & Rock-Attacks ... Cops Say

"In response, patrol officers implemented strategies where they were able to detain approximately 100 cars. Over 40 citations were issued and over 30 cars were towed."

There's more ... "We did receive sporadic reports throughout the city of celebratory gunfire and fireworks."

At least 1 cop was injured when the officer was rear-ended by a drunk driver.

"The officer was transported to a local hospital and was listed in stable condition. The driver was arrested at the scene."

Overall, cops say there were less than a half-dozen arrests throughout the city. "We are still in the process of determining if they are related to the Warriors celebration."

The Golden State Warriors had so much energy left after crushing the Cleveland Cavaliers, they partied their faces off all night long ... poppin' champagne, dancing and raging with fans!

After the final buzzer, a bunch of the Warriors hit up Harlot Nightclub in San Fran -- where the guys partied with more than $150k in Moet & Chandon bubbly.

We're told the players and their friends ripped through 80 bottles of champagne in total -- including 2 custom 6 liter Moet & Chandon Nectar Rose bottles (they usually run about $15k each).

Too Short, E-40, and Terrell Owens also attended the festivities.

But maybe the best part of the celebration -- Kevin Durant yelling with fans while holding his NBA Finals MVP trophy. Awesome moment.

BULLS ALL THE WAY

John Salley vehemently refuses to even entertain the idea that the '17 Golden State Warriors have passed the '96 Chicago Bulls as the greatest team ever.

Salley -- who played with Michael Jordan on the legendary '96 Bulls team -- was leaving Craig's in WeHo when we had to ask straight-up: could Steph Curry and Kevin Durant have beaten M.J. and Scottie Pippen?

Salley: "Are you kidding me!?"

He breaks down the matchup -- player by player -- and scoffs at the idea that Steph would shoot the Bulls outta the arena.

"He wouldn't be allowed to dribble. Steve Kerr would've been ... my God, we would've been all over that guy. No way."
