I don't think either OKC or the Spurs are going to be easy for the Warriors.

Russ probably just needed to take high road with CV. But, he threw major shade, and it was awesome lol
Yeah, I thought the press conference was awesome as hell. An owner loses his brain and decides to be critical of an excellent player the day his team is on the verge of being eliminated by said player's team and gets called out. A bench-warming scrub decides his job is to try to get under the skin of that other team's players and gets called out. Good shit.

I loved when right after the question was asked, KD was like "naw, I got this" to Russ.

Griffin out the rest of the playoffs.

Unless Curry injury is more serious than let on, they dodge another bullett.

This is actually better. Get Portland to the next round quickly versus a Paul-less Clippers team advancing and then still losing to GSW.

I agree with this. Portland has given GS fits all year too

WTF happened to Indiana? They were on cruise control to taking a 3-2 lead, and then they got outscored 25-9 in the 4th.

Frank Vogel happened.

Left Hill and PG13 on the bench during the run. And then didn't call a TO until the entire 17 point lead was gone, and game tied at 92-92. Ugh. Just terrible coaching decisions.

Maybe now he will look differently upon his "We have to get these guy in game rest. It's important for the end of game" stance.

The nba has to do something about the arm bars that are leading to guys yanking on arms. It's ridiculous and dangerous. They could have taken a stand last year when it happened to love, but they didn't. Now we see it way too often.

I always wonder why coaches don't do more of the Jordan days rest. You know when the TV time outs are. Use your timeouts around those (if you can). Get your players rest, when it's not necessarily game minutes.

I'm glad someone else sees this. Wasn't sure if it was just because of Love last yr that I'm looking for it now, but the amount TT/LBJ's arms get yanked is ridiculous.

Lowry did it tonight on Paul George. He arm barred him and then tried to roll over on it.

Remember the circle jerk of Paul George on this forum?

He's not good. He's average.

Bogut did this Howard a few games ago and Howard threw the ball at him. It looked similar to Olynyk/Love but didn't result in an injury. Possibly why Bogut didn't punished.
