Draymond fouled like a mofo there also. **** this league.

[MrMiyagi]

Shameful performance by us and the refs

Fouls there too. But why are you forcing it to Durant. You have 2 other stars. One of which is red hot.

Probably, but it wasn't a good play with .7 seconds left on the clock. It was a tough catch

[grumpysaddle]

dont worry we can still win the l2m report

Cops policing cops.

I mean Draymond was literally walking into Durant with his arms up while Durant jumped to catch the ball. Still beat these turds 3 times. They needed to rely on biased telecast in SF to win.

6 KD TOs, a couple unforced in the 4th. Just brutal.

That's not the championship Warriors, guys. That's the barely .500 Warriors.
,
Grab, say, 3 more rebounds, and this is a comfortable win. Turn the ball over 3 fewer times, same deal. Make one more open shot, etc. etc.

But there's not much focus or execution, so those plays aren't made, so the team only plays well for a half or so out of the whole game.

I look at that topline number and say, "does anyone think that's impressive?"

[Blonde]

Beal just had to stay in front of curry there man… That was the only assignment and he gambled.

They are not, but they have been playing better with the rise of Kuminga and we have no answer for him. If we meet in the playoffs we need find a way to slow him down. He dominated our frontline. Curry is amazing but Kuminga is the difference in this game.

Man....This team is cool.Detrimental cool.The hunger & focus is missing.I remember somebody saying it feels like the star vets on this team have it in cruise control right now.They're just waiting for the playoffs.It kinda feels that way at times.

[Funky Tut]

Predictable loss IMO, you know GS would get up for this game, they are desperate. I'll take us 8 out of 10 games on this Warriors club.

[Hitachi77]

Still 12-4 in the last 16 games with all 4 losses being close, on the road, to talented teams. Let’s get the next two before the all star break to get to 33-22, which is not bad all things considered.

Ok. The question all year has been, "why aren't we?"

That's what I want answered.

We are not proven, we don't even have a cushion.

[grumpysaddle]

Also a rough game to try and integrate Royce into. I expect he will have a better showing with some more repetitions and practices together.
