well damn they came in ready to break faces or do whatever it takes to take us out... this will be a dirty series at this rate. I want to see that late trip on Luka... that was full on Draymond style.

We're fortunate we came out of that in one piece. Them being dirty seems like they are conceding already perhaps.
