this year aside from his 3pt shooting what he really improved on was his decision making. Against your team a few days ago his numbers weren't good but he knew the cavs were going to keep doubling him so he made the pass to the open man, this game he knew he had to carry the load.

Reggie Bullock blew a 2 on 1 fast break layup to tie the game, so much boneheadness

Wtf are u watching? Literally blocked all ball



And the rest of his body did what ???


Went straight up as curry dove into him and stayed down to sell a call

You can't block while leading with your arm and also go straight up. You either go straight up and block up top, or you lead with your arm. Poertrltlrlt jumped sideways, just re-watched it. Steph's missed ft's negated Miles' anyway, I don't see why this is so controversial.

lol what other excuse do you have, bandwagon? Nothing they do can fail in your eyes. They stopped making shots and their defense fell apart in the second half. It's as simple as that.

I didn't know that there was any current consensus that Klay was better than DeRozan. I know that was the thought a couple of seasons ago by a lot of people, but recently?

i honestly believe they might 16-0 the playoffs.. that team just looks unstoppable when they're motivated. I think we caught them sleeping in the 4th.

Was the contact after the ball, and don't your players complain all the time about calls?

Doesn't matter if the contact was after the block, it's a foul.
