You called it. Who would have thought LWIV would be the savior?

Yeah they just needed someone to make some of their shots. Everyone seemed ice cold. Thought it would be DLo but very thankful that Lonnie showed up.

Silver Spoon Steph was in hell that fourth quarter. Not so easy to beat LeBron when KD isn’t on that court with ya huh?

LeBron James and his teams just find ways to win these types of games. Real winner

I hate how they took AD out of the offense the entire 4th but got lucky Lonnie went crazy. LeBron hit some clutch free throws too. Can’t expect them to win in 5 but at least now they have 3 chances to close it out. Gotta think LeBron has one throwback performance in him for one of those.

Curry had about 50 chances to bury the Lakers and he couldn’t do it.

I thought it was that Draymond was guarding him and you don't wanna involve Draymond in clutch defensive plays. Plus they were match-up hunting against Steph for most of it.

That said, Dennis should've passed it to AD instead of that bull **** turnover.

Those who still believe in LeBron.. get ready

Is there a player who's been blocked by LeBron more times than Curry?

Maybe Rose lol, but can't be many others.

The best part is that we got the W and now can game plan for the adjustments Kerr has made. Have a real shot to close this out in 5 games

What a game. This is what memories as a fan are made of, quite simply. Sky-Walker was the most improbable hero, but every shot he took.. he smelt blood. Again, running on way too much of a fever dream to have an analytical stance on the game just yet! Let’s go Lake Show!!!

Good call, Zimpy. This team has shown a tremendous amount of grit in the playoffs already.

Also, if someone had told me before the playoffs that Lonnie Walker would be instrumental in two separate wins over the Golden State Warriors in the playoffs, I would’ve told you that there was a better chance that Donald Trump would convert to Islam.

Steph was the only reason Warriors were even in this game. He's amazing.

Dray was poor afte that hit to the head.

Mostly thankful that Klay got all emotional and tried to win the game with a 30ft 3.

Steph is getting a lot of **** but he showed up from what I could see. The guy who deserves the most **** would be Poole. He got cocky in game 1, took a dumb shot and has been invisible ever since

WHAT A WIN!

One win away to make the WCF!

GSP · Post #317 » by **GSP** » Tue May 9, 2023 4:44 am

I dont know how you can debate this is Brons deepest team anymore. He turned it up late in the 3rd but man he couldnt score on Steph. This wouldve been a disastrous loss and all the Steph fangirls would be saying he shut him down or some bull ****

Reaves went shot to shot w/ Steph in the 3rd. Lonnie **** Walker went shot to shot with Steph in 4th. Scored on him at will, broke his ankle one play.

Ad right now is arguably the best teammate hes had only argument is 11 Wade (not counting other Ad seasons).

Then Dlo, Vando, Rui, Denis who made some MASSIVE momentum buckets and steals. Man......There is no other Bron roster where he has this game against the Warriors and you win it..........

Wow, I don't think I ever really believed they'd win this game!

Poole has also a 140 millions contract!

His game winner/tying shot playoff record just got worse.... I think it's 3/15 now?
