Bell, Evans and Lee show signs of being NBA players.

Yes bench Dray but Boogie? Are we worried about Boogie getting injured or is getting Boogie playing time still more important.
With the big 4 benched this is Boogie's chance to show what he can do as the main man. I am impressed with his passing.

If the playoff refs allow defenders to bump, grab and hold Curry, Klay and KD, then I would not be afraid to let Cousins become the go to guy. Hopefully the refs won't let defenders mug Stephen and Klay. Freedom of Movement blah blah blah; I will believe it when I see off the ball fouls called in the playoffs.

Welp. The Dubs' first round matchup just got a lot more interesting.

Jacob Evans feels at home in this game playing against a G League roster. All kidding aside, kid looks good out there.

People wrote Evans off too soon. If he is as good as Looney 2 years from now the I will call the draft pick a success.

It looked bad. TV guys are saying foot not ankle and they are minimizing the injury and implying that perhaps Cury could play if this was the playoffs.

Go Thunder, beat the Rockets. Let's have Clippers in the first round. We don't need Steph to beat them but we would then need Steph to beat the Rockets in the 2nd round.

I really want to see NBA officially explaining why Harden gets a whistle when his finger nail was touched on a jump shot, when all other players get contact and no call, ankles get hit etc etc.

Meaningless games.

But they tie Bird’s Celtics teams for best 6-year stretch in NBA history.

They could break it by beating Memphis but they probably won’t play any starters or the older guys like Livingston.

So they probably wont get it.

Hoping it's just a massive false alarm.

So frustrating. What was the point?

If there’s ONE player you sit... :banghead:
