52 total in 27 min. He had 22 in the first quarter. 

Dubs scored 92 first half points. Second only to the Suns in 1990 when they scored 107.

I heard this morning that Curry has five game with 50+ points with at least 10 made 3's, and Thompson now has two...the rest of the NBA has two combined...that's crazy.

It sucks when the Warriors players do something incredible...because they're so good, but so incredibly douchy. So it makes it less impressive 

I think Klay is the lesser douche of them all but that isn't saying much. If he moved on (to anyone but the Lakers) I'd be a fan of his. 

The team is just ridiculous. It's like they just sits around in the locker room prior saying "tonight lets run the offense through our third best player and see what happens." and he drops 50+ points and breaks the three point record.

I'll never forget Klay's douche comments here: https://ftw.usatoday.com/2016/06/klay-thompson-lebron-james-feelings-hurt-trash-talk-green-nba-finals

He's a front runner who can GFH

Klay is a huge douche. He just hiss it better than everyone. He whines almost as much as Draymond. I hate them all equally. It’s uncanny how shitty they are all.

Order of GSW Star douchery for me

1st Draymond/Curry

3rd Durant

4th Klay

All top 10 in NBA

I still think klays “baby” comment was what lost GSW that championship. Lebron did NOT like that.

Create the statue in Cleveland then.

I know it’s super early, but I can’t imagine a scenario in which Melo actually increases the rockets odds of getting past GSW. 

And thats not a hot take because I would have said the same thing any time in the last 5 years.

Only way they have a chance is if they get Butler, AND get home court advantage, AND everyone stays healthy. Even then I give it a 10% shot. 

Derrick Rose goes for 50

Damn. Thought those days were LONG over.

Same, very surprising. Esp considering his lack of a consistent 3 pt shot. Still need to watch the highlights of this one.

He's gotten a lot of congrats on Twitter along with the videos of them celebrating him on the court after and in the locker room. IMO, goes a long way demonstrating how great of a teammate he is and a hard worker. 

Luke Walton already being reprimanded by Magic Johnson for the Lakers "slow start." Gee, wonder who could be behind that? Perhaps Mr Passive Aggressive? Wouldn't surprise me if LBJ's boy, Ty Lue, was coaching that squad in the near future.

SC on in the background and showing highlights of Suns/Raptors and about 40 people in the stands

I watched that game, there was more than 40, but it wasn't a sold out game either.

Walton’s job is not in jeopardy. 

Celtics 5/26 to start game and only 15 points a few min into the 2nd
