Warriors will regret not being up more. Played the better quarter.

It's something I think I will always struggle to get over is how badly we shot and how we continually just gave up great looks over and over again.




I think if there is ever 1 reason to fire bud your comment is spot on for doing it.His D n absolute lack of adjustments to said D to ne would be should be grounds for getting your ass fired.
Dont know a quality coach in this league that wouldnt of made these adjustments after watching the other team shoot open 3s shot after shot.Isnt that tbe true definition of insanity not doing anything yet expecting different results.

Maybe it will take a vet or 2 to complain to horst before bud gets the heave ho but being outscored by 150 plus from 3 in your 4 loses will never sit well with me

Luka and Giannis are the 2 best players in the league. I think they both eventually get tired of carrying their teams and team up.

Luka had a long rest and Mavs extended the lead. Back in now. Steph, Dray, and Wiggins too.

Draymond gotta cool it a bit but a ref getting the call wrong then blowing a tech just to feel like the boss is one of the worst things about the nba.

Some bad calls in this game. If anyone here wants to become a ref, I say go for it.

Marcus Smart just flopped trying to guard his TV tonight. He’s questionable to return to his couch

This doesn’t feel like a conference finals series imo. Not really sure why but the atmosphere, intensity, and collective talent seems kinda weak compared to some of the great West playoffs we’ve had. I also don’t think either of these teams is that good.

This is where you really feel the loss of Kawhi/PG, the Nuggets being down Murray/MPJ, the Lakers ruining their title team, etc. The West just feels weak right now.

Warriors vs Bucks would have been a damn fun Finals.

Thought the Warriors were done three years ago. But unfortunately no.

Warriors have 3 hofs and nobody else does. All three show their age in different ways but they’re the most talented team. I think Boston can win and Miami would have a chance but I lean warriors taking it all.

With Steph and Draymond healthy they were always going to be thereabouts imo. The other west powers not being healthy or at that level yet has helped them immensely this year.

Depends on how much the NBA wants a Boston chip, but I agree.

Klay is a HOFer in reputation only at this point, he’s not really Klay anymore, mainly defensively. Draymond is still terrific but a ways from 14-18 Dray.

Boston really has no excuse to not win it all this year. They *should* win it imo.
