Sucks for the Lakers that GSW & Houston won today after their hard fought win over Portland.

Yes, but once you review it, you can't call the foul. how did the ref see that it was Warriors' ball?

makeup call, your point that it changed the game is silly though because it wouldve been a foul if the refs made the right call in the first place


How is it silly? The refs were watching a replay in slow motion. They had to take the right decision in the moment and the right decision in was Spurs' ball. So in that moment it was the wrong call and it changed the game.

Who cares what happened before? It was the wrong decision. They had the replay, you can't get it wrong.

Beat the Thunder under the same circumstances they beat the Spurs. Team in the middle of a road trip on the second night of a back-to-back. The Spurs got it even worse, having to go to OT. Not saying that was the sole reason the Warriors won, but it certainly helped. It just looked like San Antonio just ran out of gas in the end. Made some silly mental mistakes you rarely see them make.

Jarret Jack is basically Monta Part 2 in a fraction of the salary.

You got it, specially in a forum where every random poster can post whatever crap they want. You never know if the guy is serious or not around here.

Would you say my sig was a sarcasm as well?

The answer is no

i thought it was pretty clear people were mocking the overreactions to the LAC vs SAS game

I missed the game last night, but was TP's thrashing of CP3 that hard that he leapfrogged Durant and is apparently contending with LBJ for MVP? Is this just hype and the media trying to stir some ****?

ESPN Stats & Info ‏@ESPNStatsInfo
Jarrett Jack: 1st player with at least 30 points, 10 assists off bench in game since Magic Johnson in 1996!

To be honest, I'm more impressed an old washed up Magic did this in 1996 than I am by Jack doing it tonight.

Of course Parker is still an MVP candidate.


It's just it is a candiancy fighting with KD for second place.
Enjoy every sandwich.

Too much Manu, not enough Kawhi. A non-100% Ginobili is not a pretty sight against good defensive teams.

TP always gets a little emo when he knows he's getting outplayed, especially to a guy like Jack.

This was a good back-down to earth loss. We aren't gonna steamroll anyone, TP going heroball isn't leading us anywhere, time to focus on getting better.

Not me, and one game on the second half of a back to back playing 40 minutes doesn't change that.


You realized Parker played like 28 minutes last night, and 40 tonight. That's like 36 min/gm, which is pretty normal for a starter. Also, other guys play back to backs too.

it was a makeup call clearly, it is silly though because it never shouldve had a chance to be san antonio ball either way because ginobli clearly fouled curry and they got so call, it didnt change the game because if the right call was made in the first place its GS ball eithr way.

The day Golden State goes into San Antonio and wins a game then wake me up.

Spurs will win 4-1 if they meet in May.

Are GSW going to continue to wear this jersey for the good luck charm?!

I still say their chemistry looks much better without Bogut.

Averages only make sense in the long run. If Parker put up 12 last game and 40 this game, you wouldn't say nbd that's only a 26ppg average over two games. Back to backs take a toll, no matter if it's 28 min or 40

Why are people talking about the spurs on a back to back?? They blew the clippers out and the starters barely played come on now
