Minnesota and Golden State going to overtime. At least Golden State isn't getting the chance to rest guys with these kind of games.

Towns just pwned Curry by playing def on him at the top of the key. Loved it.

Green lucky he didn't get a foul on elbowing KAT there. 2 straight buckets for Wiggins in OT

game should have been over. The block they called on curry that they then overturned was a complete JOKE!

Legit question though, is golden state running out of gas? They've been trying to get this record, and haven't say guys. Other than injuries, they are playing their guys every night. They've looked much more beatable the last few weeks.

KAT playing some nice defense on Curry. He's just quick and long enough to give him trouble getting up a good shot.

IF they called every foul on green that they should, he would never make it to the 4th quarter

Next commercial if you guys can go back to Warriors final play of regulation. Curry gets inbound pass and dribbles it once, picks up dribble, then drives with it few seconds later. Double dribble? Travel?

Same with Bogut and his moving screens.

Eh slow down. It's the reg season, not going to make a huge deal out of a game late in the season. I think what it says is winning 73 games+ is fucking difficult.

No they're awesome... BUT it's a legit question. They are playing a ton of games, when they really could have rested guys here and there. Like SA has done. They've even start to admit that its taken a toll on them..

He's going to be a huge star. If wiggins ever starts playing defense like he was supposed to, they could be really dangerous in a couple years. KAT is a badass on both ends! He has hedged out on curry tonight and caused a ton of problems.

Im not a big believer in taking a game off here or there being meaningful. The reason the spurs method works is because their stars don't play a ton of minutes to begin with. For example, LBJ playing 40 min a game, then taking a game off in Feb has little to no impact come June IMO. Only limits chance of injuries. GSW don't rest their guys like LBJ rests, but they're also not playing 40 min a game either (maybe curry does?).

Kerr said it was up to the players on if they played/rested so by playing IMO it says the players feel fine. Really just a showcase that the season is too fucking long.

But the players just the other day literally said that going for the record has been tiring and they've put so much into it. Don't think they meant it as a negative, but them and kerr sort of admitting it, is at least worth asking, if they will run out of gas. I guess in my mind, they've looked more beatable the last month than they had... and theyre still basically winning every game.

Especially if if they can win a top pick in the draft.
