For me the warriors are a great team, they just annoy me with some of their antics.




Go OKC?? My preference in your scenario is Cleveland beats GSW in 4 and Kyrie and Love being CO Finals MVP's.

Still gotta finish them - but an OKC vs CLE Finals was so not expected.

I'd have a hard time not wanting to see Westbrrok and Durant deliver a title to OKC. Those guys have earned it there.
But I'm still in for CLE.

It's on the players now. Lue and Donovan are rookie coaches and Kerr is really not much of a factor in GSW. They run themselves.

Curry still has some big games left in him. I don't see a 73 win defending champ bowing out so easily. I'd love it but I think this series is far from over. No complaints, I'm enjoying it immensely.

Of course the nba didnt suspend Dray, why should an all star be held accountable for their actions when they are the nba golden team?

OKC better win this thang.


The NBA sent a strong message they want the Warriors in the playoffs as long as possible. Had the Warriors won game 3 it's probable that Green would have been suspended, down 2 games to 1... not a chance.

Yeah... probably completely unintentional, here he pulled back because he got a good shot at the basket.


If the NBA chalks this up to selling calls then the NBA has created a hazardous work environment knowingly. It would be interesting to see what happens if someone ends up with permanent damage and takes them to court for a ton of money since they allowed this to go on.

I'm not a Warrior hater, but come on NBA ... it's Dray. Nothing he does is unintentional. Sack it up and suspend him.

had Green got suspended i was going to call bs that it could cause golden state to lose the series. The issue that might cause golden state to lose the series is they lose 2 of the first 3 games!

Video with both kicks-

[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fjp2WivDvg[/youtube]

1st kick - that does look unintentional

2ns kick? - that's unintentional? :lol:

This is almost David Stern controversey level. They want this series to go 7 so bad I can smell the anticipation on Adam Silvers breath. Leave the villian in so everyone wants to watch tonight. Brilliant!

They've got Collison and Nazi on the bench doing nothing. I'm hoping for a big OKC lead with Draymond still in the game late :pray:

F the warriors and their Bieberesque leader. Nothing makes me happier than seeing OKC take them down playing big boy basketball. All the talk about molding the Bulls to be a warriors style team was nauseating. the warriors are chuckers. they move the ball but it usually results in some sort of heave of a shot. unfortunately it goes in somehow but that is not something to emulate unless you can get a hold of a roster like GS's. good luck with that.


I hate lebron more though so okc better beat cleveland otherwise I'll have wished gsw was in finals.

Its not Golden State's fault that the NBA didn't suspend Green. Its the NBA's fault.

And frankly, its only the NBA's fault because they did suspend Jones. But personally, I don't think either of them should be suspended for what they did. A little sack shot between competitors warrants a flagrant, but not a suspension. This isn't 5th grade.

I'm not confident that Draymond kicked Adams in the nuts intentionally. But if he did, he should be beaten to death at center court.

I'm confident from the videos that both Green and Jones made intentional contact with frank and beans. I suppose there are different schools of thought on how significant a transgression that is, but in my view it doesn't even come close to warranting a suspension.

Hell, my HS coach literally taught us how to pop an opposing player in the nuts real quick to throw him off. Not straight up try to jack them or anything, but that isn't what Green or Jones did either.

Sidenote: I've never actually applied that lesson. I do think its dirty and uncalled for, and would never coach that technique myself or do it to an opposing player. But not everything that is dirty and uncalled for warrants a suspension.

The problem with this story is the respective treatment of Jones and Green. They should have received the same punishment, regardless of what it was.

I think it's about as low of a thing as a man can do physically to another. Or a woman, for that matter. I was friends with a kid when I was younger who had to have a testicle removed because his sister kicked him in the balls.

If someone did it to me in a game I'd beat them to death in broad daylight. End their life.

For someone to do that is either profound ignorance, profound recklessness, or both.

I predict a nice fight in the next game. A real fight. Where is that scowl faced dude who used to play for the Celtics when you need him?

Kiki's best try at an explanation for this-

http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nba/playoffs/2016/05/23/kiki-vandeweghe-draymond-green-steven-adams-playoffs/84830916/

We have professional investigators that conduct the investigation. They talk to the players, they talk to all the referees, including the replay officials, and they all come back and report to me.


So it's his decision ultimately.....
I think it's a bunch of waffling so that he could keep him on the floor tonight because that creates more drama......

just dropped in to say
HAHAHAHAHAHA! greatest team ever my ASS! GOAT Team my ass! HAHAHAHAHA

but seriously, I don't really hate GS, but their fans+dre is enough to make me hate them. the warriors and their hand full of ass fans are the team equivalent of Jeremy lIn and his hand full of crazy nuts fans. you want to like them but just end up hating em.

Damn you are correct. For some reason thought they only lost 4 games this postseason. Means the best they can do now is 89-14 which is worst than 87-13.
