Great defense. Fun to watch Knicks struggle to just get shots off.

And huh....who would have thunk getting to the FT line down the stretch of games helps win games!

This was unexpected to me, thought we'll lose .

the last two games i watched expecting podz and buddy to be disastrous, based on the comments here and i saw them playing decent games. then i remembered. the mourning choir is ubiquitous on this thread.

you can kiss podz' ring for all that i care. cockring that is.

One of the most impressive wins of the year, somehow they summoned more focus and energy on the back half of the B2B as the front. And against a much better team. Great win. Also, Rox lost, GS now just 3 games away from #5.

Jimmy played. I think Steph can still be great next to a second option like Jimmy, but can’t do it on his own anymore, particularly without the players they traded for Jimmy as well as Jimmy himself.

Any great player at any age needs another great player (at least) around him. It's just too easy to trap and take the ball out of a great player's hands and render him almost useless if there's not another great player to punish that strategy. We all know how bad Curry looked this year without Jimmy and how amazingly good he looks now. I think they said on the broadcast he's the second leading scorer in the league since Butler's arrival. It begs the question why the Warriors waited so long to do anything.

Of course, this was pretty much my point. With the current roster if Jimmy is out you can’t count on beating even a team like the 76ers, and this is the price of trading for Jimmy which looks like a great trade which has reinvigorated Steph to me in general as well. Curry possibly could have led them to a win over the 76ers with the players they traded for Jimmy though.

good game. no KAT though. still need to see this team against a contender

but hype levels slowly and cautiously increasing

As long as they don't lay an egg tomorrow at Brooklyn.

Remember they lost to them at Chase earlier this season.
