Saw some stat this weekend that the Warriors' defense this year was ten points per 100 worse on the road than at home. :burger:

Curry almost blundering away a playoff game after calling a timeout he didn't have.
Finch not calling a timeout as his team blows a 12 point lead in the last 3 minutes of the game.
Really puts Mazzulla's "issues" with timeout management into perspective doesn't it ?

Who would have thought Knicks VS Heat in R2 is a real possibility?

Giannis is in tonight.

I'm inclined to want to agree with this, but if Milwaukee loses even one of the next two, will be a hell of a hole to climb out of.

Yes. And meanwhile ATL was on a 9-0 run last night to cut our lead from 13 down to 4, their crowd going nuts. Most coaches call a timeout in that spot.

Mazzulla lets them play through it, we get on and-1 for Rob on the ensuing possession and next thing you know our lead is back up to 9.

Ugh. Injuries suck.

And not trying to be insensitive, but this is also the reason why you try to go for it every year you think your team is good enough.

no average coach is going to succeed with that roster full of knuckleheads. If they don't hit a home run in FA and the draft Ime is going to be badly exposed and hurt a lot of feelings in here

OK a little more series question, does this increase or decrease our chances of re-signing JB or trading him?

any guess as to the injury Timeline? Can't see Sac beating GS without him..

The warriors are definitely winning that series now.

He's not going to heal in the next 2 days but there's a chance he could just play through it. He made some big shots last night after it was already fractured. So maybe just a pain tolerance thing. He's listed as doubtful but not out for Game 5.

Unless Steph gets hurt or something. It's a shame really that NBA has gotten so physically intense that rings are about who can last without getting their bodies broken.

tape two fingers together and lace 'em up. This is the playoffs.
