How seriously are we playing at this point? Ironically, GSW also may have benefits if lose, but switching #5 for #6 to escape the Suns would put them at risk of losing the #6 spot too, and be forced to fight for the remaining 2 WC spots with the Lakers and Mavs.

AGAIN, KCP having a sub-par game, not a good time to go slumping

Now THAT'S the MPJ I wanna see more of !

Seems like a game plan for victory when Jokic is out. MPJ, Murray, and some bench scoring (PW looks like part of the future calvary). Now if KCP can regain some form...

And MEM shows their true colors, NICE

Peyton Watson looking like he is going to be a factor in a few years. Booth clearly saw some of the talent that we got glimpses of tonight. Happy to see getting some run and getting confidence. He might be able to be a random small-minute wild card in the playoffs.

It was nice to see MPJ get back on track.

The Warriors have some major issue on the road this year, it doesn't make much sense to me but glad we got the win.

Watson and Braun are both outstanding for late 1st round picks. I would like to see those two with Nnaji at center, have Murray focused on defense, and Brown on the court and just have them play aggressive defense and run. That maybe the bench identity we need, run the opposition when Jokic sits and tore them out quickly.

One other note, with this win and the MEM loss, we're just ONE win away from the #1 seed in the West (given we have the tiebreaker against the Grizzlies)

we do, so if we beat HOU or MEM loses tonight or tomorrow against NOP, we are #1 already
