KD overrated. I want him off the Warriors.

GS wouldnt be playing right now if it wasnt for KD....Curry and Klay choking it away


Wrong. Curry and Klay's lack of flow is a direct result of KD's negative impact to the team. His play and shot discipline has been crap all year, and it's rubbed off on the entire team. Warriors did fine without KD for years. They can do it again.

Durant's iso ball is still better offense than most teams in the league. Dude's ridiculously efficient. They didn't drop this one cause of him IMO


Of course they did because of him.


Doesnt matter how it usually us. He sucked tonight, his average wont save him for TONIGHT.

You haven't watched much NBA then, haha. The coach and players tell the ref they are calling timeout before the play and begin yelling it before the player grabs the ball. As they touch it cleanly the ref will whistle the timeout. I've seen it take off .1 or .2 of a second plenty of times in that instance.



Youve never seen it youre making stuff up. Stop embarrassing yourself or find some evidence.


I think he's confused. You can call a time out in advance on a made FT... not after a miss lol.

27 pts on 24 shots is not efficient. Definitely a big reason why they lost

kinda. lol him passing to Klay in the dying seconds. him pulling up would have been a better chance than Klay fading away

It’s not KD’s fault. Give credit to the Houston defensive scheme. Golden State lost in 2016 in large part due to them not having an iso player. Now it’s KD’s fault he’s changing the way Golden State is playing?


What?


KD was taking terrible fadeaway 3's not even hitting the rim....


this loser gets to join the most loaded team ever and some of you betas actually SAVE FACE for his failures?


Whats wrong with some of you dudes man lol

KD should be embarrassed with how he played tonight.

A complete beta performance as a detractor would say.

He needs to step it up big time in game 5.

Klay Thompson gave the Warriors absolutely nothing tonight.

You can blame Kerr, you can blame Curry, you can blame whatever but it's year 7 in the league for Klay and he still can't dribble or create his own shot.

Not to make excuses for the Warriors, but losing Iggy is huge. Their bench is frightening when you have Livingston, Iggy, and West playing. It's kind of whatever when it's just Livingston and scrub big men

Think about this logically. Both teams scored under 100 points and Durant had 27 points on 24 shots, he played good.

Draymond Green had 5 turnovers and Klay went 4/13 - those 2 areas are much worse than KD. Let's not automatically blame Steph and KD always.
