Re: WCSF Game 5, 5/14: Warriors at Timberwolves, 8:30 pm
To say tonight's game is big is an understatement. But which Wolves team will show up. I will be highly encouraged if we put our foot on their throat early and finish them off tonight. That's my fantasy.
Back to reality.... we piss this one away with a halfhearted effort or shoot a cold 35% from the field and worse from 3.
I don't know how it goes tonight. I'd sure love to believe like I once did that we're a really good consistent team that will take care of business like the really good teams of the past do. I've been burned too often.
We may never have this great a chance to win an NBA Championship right now. Boston, Cleveland etc. are out or close to it. OKC looks like the best team left up 3-2 against Denver. If we put these guys away tonight we're two series away from glory. We may never have another chance this good. The coaches should be telling them that over and over.
Protect the ball, have good ball-movement, very little hero ball except for Ant late if needed and shoot a decent percentage. That's it. If we do that we win.

Home game against a team that probably wouldn't have made the playoffs without Curry. We need to TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS. Put them away.

Can't have jkuminga going crazy on us anymore, but Jaden on Jbutler first priority.
Good defense, ball movement, rebound. Stick to the fundamentals.. we have too much talent for this team

It just makes me sick when we allow scrubs like Kuminga to walk all over us. Shut that POS down.

Are you Rudy Gobert in real life?

Don't play with our food tonight. Demoralize them early with a fast start and never look back.
I'm overly confident about tonight's game which scares the poop out of me.

Let's get another Rudy game. Displays dominance as the best player on the court. Breaks Gsw will by halftime.
Jimmy fakes an injury to avoid playing the game out..

Yep. That game is over, but a difference is Boston was the home team. Warriors will be the road team. I'm not guarantying a win, but I like our chances.

This team owes it to the home crowd. Spread dropped from -11.5 to now -10. Really like us even -10

Checked ref assignments and we don’t have any sucktards, so that’s a good sign.

Am I the only one who prefers not to use the challenges early?

Good start so far, still need to find a way to slow down Kuminga

I missed the first quarter. Can I go with the standard “Where is the intensity?” or are we feeling good about this start?

It makes me sick, but we're winning by 7 so can't complain. I just got to watch now as I was running a necessary errand.

Feeling good. But could be better. Ant miss layup and Ant turn over to end the 1st qtr.
