Green may be a flopping fish but he also should have gotten DPOY

Jokic and Wemby are both in your conference while you are starting Sengun and Donatas Sabonis? Both guys have to go.

Not that it had an impact on the game but how did Draymond get away with that?

Great win for the warriors. Amazing 2nd half for Curry.

As an aside, players shouldn't be allowed to call timeouts lying down. It would be like allowing QBs to call TO when they're about to be sacked.

FVV playing like a savy veteran picking up his dribble for god knows what reason and then throwing it away.

9 poins. Dude is such a fraud.

This is what he does. Single digits. 30 point game. Single digits. 26 point game.

Apparently that transfers into the playoffs.

Vanvleet is shooting 26.8% from the field in this series. And he's paid $40M.
