We just need to finish this game out with Steph Curry in pick and roll action, with a side cleared out.

Dray the most clutch player of all the bad offensive players

Butler what a game

Quality win over a good team. Still not even feeling like this team is even close to its peak, so it's a good sign. Gui was huge.

Gritty win, one that the Dubs wouldn't have got earlier in the season. Great to see guys talking to Dennis after, seems like they all respect the guy.

Dennis gifted us the win, when I saw him closing i know we got this.

These games are surefire losses earlier in the season. Tough win, good win.

Both teams shot poorly. Got a clutch 3 from the most unexpected source.

Cade was unstoppable. No rim protection whatsoever. Such an athletic team though, especially when Ivey comes back next season.

Jimmy looked to score which they needed because Curry seemed disinterested, though Ausar probably intimidated.

But the best player may have been Gui.

Pistons obviously believed they were being jobbed on the officiating. I’m not so sure they don’t have a case — when is the last time the Warriors got 41 FTAs, maybe when Wilt was playing? Slight exaggeration but I can’t recall a recent game like that.

Well if you watched the game there were nonstop fouls. Not sure what else the refs could do.

Jimmy had a great game. Wish he was more aggressive at times but I’m guessing that comes with playoff Jimmy.

I didn't think Jimmy was even that good today. Both he and Steph looked tired, but the ball denial on them both was excellent from the Pistons.

In a game with a total of 56 PFs, Butler was whistled for zero.

Jimmy was able to play in spurts dominating segments of the game. He could’ve played better for sure but considering what we’ve seen without him, he was great against an elite defensive team.

GUI was amazing. His hustle and versatility on defense. Crazy that jk is probably going to take all of his minutes but I would feel comfortable with gui still in the rotation.

I never thought Gui could get this good. He just looks flat out faster then his first season

"Crazy" is putting it mildly.
