Re: General NBA Discussion Thread
That was a clutch Bulls loss. They're not very good (Net rating of +0.4). I wouldn't be shocked if they start slipping in the standings some more.

Re: General NBA Discussion Thread
Spurs look rattled, they need to calm down a bit before it starts to get away.

Don't think Festus tried to make a play for the ball there

Re: General NBA Discussion Thread
Spurs are sloppy as hell right now. Lackadaisical with the ball and with their passes.
also liked how when Ezeli had an early mid-key seal, Draymond immediately makes the entry.

Spurs will be fine, Pops will say some words and they'll get back into this.
and lol at that not being a flagrant. Pretty blatant shove by Festus there.

Re: General NBA Discussion Thread
So far the Warriors are the better offensive AND defensive team.

Re: General NBA Discussion Thread
I don't think we can take the Warriors in the finals. Need to hope OKC makes it there somehow...

Re: General NBA Discussion Thread
Aggressive ball denial on either side of the floor, immediately cut backdoor. Second nature.

Re: General NBA Discussion Thread
After the dubs scored 20 or so in half a quarter, the game is 23-29 lol.

Bad cut by Simmons. Messed up spacing.

Re: General NBA Discussion Thread
I cant watch anymore turnovers lol, seems as if both teams don't want to show their cards.

Warriors not looking that good tbh. Wouldn't be surprised to see SA win in the playoffs at all.
