Kerr pulled the plug, smart move.

Go Lakers...I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

Better win Game 6 because we ain't winning it on that building on a Game 7.

I hope Kerr can pull a rabbit out of his hat after watching tape of this game. Not sure how you can coach a lack of height, speed, and strength.

Eh, I wouldn't be shocked if the Warriors lost game 6 and then won game 7, like they did against Sac a couple years ago. Better to get it done at home, of course, but I wouldn't be afraid of an untested young team in their first game 7.

Nah, these old heads need to close it out at home and they are toast, IMO.

This and Vanvleet continuing his hot shooting will cause a disaster.

it depends...if we are not moving the ball then there is nothing he can do - getting blitzed but ball never moves back to him..he will continue put up 10 shots and just watch everyone miss

Bench > Starters

Seriously though, I'm glad they cut that lead heading to Game 6.

Damn, would've liked to see TJD put Brooks on his ass on that transition play.
