At this point Curry should shoot over double teams

I just don't see the superstar potential so many people claim. He just seems like a decent player.

Steve Francis was a lot more than just a decent player.


Dude wasn't a superstar either.

If only they had a point guard that orchestrate the offense and control tempo.

Gonna need another Warrior to step up or at least make a layup if they want to lose to the Jazz in 5. So far no good.

If that was a Grizzlies player, we already would be having lot of ref conspiracy theory posts on here...but since it was a Warriors player who got hacked but didn't get a call, not seeing any such posts

Toscano-Anderson, you don’t try a pass like that this late in the game....

I have a feeling this is gonna go down to the wire and it still could be any team's game.

Honestly the Warriors fans should be rooting for Memphis. You aren’t winning anything, you won’t even beat Utah. And you don’t need the playoff experience. Just let Steph rest and start thinking about how to get rid of Wiggins.

Wiggins is an embarrassment.

Missing layups, dropping passes, bricking open shots, being invisible the other 75% of the time.

I don’t think the Warriors got a raw deal at all. Everyone knew the deal from the beginning of the season, if you’re in the 7-10 range, you go to the play-in. They ended up 8th. That’s the way it was set up, oh well.

But I don’t think the Warriors, or Steph for that matter, deserve any hate at all if they don’t win this. Dude was carrying a trash roster and got them to a 39-33 record and a playoff spot in any normal season. MVP-level season.

Not really. This team is going nowhere. Might as well let Steph start his off-season instead of possibly getting injured in the playoffs trying to carry these scrubs.

I mean good game by Memphis though... Their D has been solid all game. They deserve to pull this one off if it goes that way.

Need several great passers for an off-ball system. JTA, Poole, Mulder, Looney, these guys constantly miss Curry spotting up. Their passing ability is getting crazy exposed tonight
