NBA 2016 | Playoffs | The Best Team Since 1947 Warriors

I don't want to see a game 7 here at all

lmao at Cavs fans already leaving. Disgraceful, no wonder the city is a joke.

6 finals is insane.

freddy gordy no!

By P S Y C H Go To Postfreddy gordy no!

lol. to win two is actually good, they overachieved.

just drop the new madlib & gibbs and I'll forgive you freddie

I couldn't watch the game but it looks like was spared some serious grief. Hope they can get their feet back under them after that in game 6.

literal tears

By shun Go To PostDray hasn't been voted dirty player by the players of the NBA yet.

Unlike Ibaka and Dellevadova and Adams.

Only word that really matters in this post.

How you gonna pick THIS game to say that?

Jurassic Park turned into Jurassic Park 2. Goddamn petting zoo for rescue cats by the second quarter. Turned up those other two games but had the water and electricity cut off tonight. Dudes bailed quick af tonight.

They only asked 2 questions at the Kyle & DeMar presser lmao

Sure, I can somewhat understand leaving when your team is losing... but when they are winning? Makes no sense to me.

How quick we all forgot that Toronto abandoned their own arena last year in Game 2. Shit looked like 28 Days Later.

Trying to beat that Canadian traffic no doubt.

I love this..... I just wanted to say that

It should be captioned with Brazzers

Nah. If I'm going to the game, I'm staying to end. If I'm going to the game at the drive in our whatever they call it, I'm staying.

Leaving whether up or down is cool. But it's enough to clown when they try to use it to show fandom. You never know. By third quarter, they emptied out and lost faith, in Jurassic Park. I could make an argument either way. It's all silly but since you brought it up and put a qualifier on it, i figured we should clown every fan who can't stay for the whole experience.

No matter what, you spend time and energy going, i believe you should stay. There are exceptions but unless 10,000 got a phone call from their wife going into labor, it's just regular people leaving because they couldn't turn off the TV. But we see how much the crowd can make a difference this series, so i would hope all fans could stay.

lol espn

too shook to even bet the dubs straight up to be honest

id take GSW to win for sure

but they have made me look stupid this series so ..

I got GSW losing tonight because i want to see some salt. I want to have to go to the ER due to salt overdosing

Dubs are shook beyond belief. Their body language is awful and their best offensive sets involve hoping Curry or Thompson pulls a rabbit out of a hat (which isn't bad offense much of the time tbh).

Curry is not 100%, although how much of that reporting is honest and how much is an excuse is hard to say.

I think we close it out tonight, especially since we figured out how to make Roberson effective on offense. We might have to withstand an initial blitz but if we keep it close and take the crowd out of it we could win comfortably.

Dubs are asking the tech execs to #fanup, writing's on the wall

i love that all the things people ragged the heat and their fanbase about is happening everywhere else lol

fan up, GSW

i mean if things go chalk the thunder will get blown out by 20 tonight with this whole home/away switch bull but idk steph looked like he was ready to go home and be a family man

By Dark PhaZe Go To Posti mean if things go chalk the thunder will get blown out by 20 tonight with this whole home/away switch bull but idk steph looked like he was ready to go home and be a family man

He was seeing ghosts when he was driving to the rim.

Tossed an uncontested layup over the rim completely in the second half. Just crazy stuff.

why are people saying steph is injured now that the warriors are losing?

By KingGondo Go To PostDubs are asking the tech execs to #fanup, writing's on the wall

respek lost.
Jerry West should bail the fuck out of that franchise before they turn into #heatculture

WHATEVER IT TAKES lmao

The Warriors are trying to act like they're confident because of all the achievements they've accomplished the past two years, but they're shook down to the core. Two runs by OKC & a decent defensive effort will crush the feels of everybody present @ the Oracle Arena.

Not to totally troll GS, they're one of the best team in the history of the NBA and them losing won't change that. It's just that OKC got their number for this series. Plain and simple.

dray has been god awful since he kicked adams in the nuts, and steph has just been a step slow with everything. dude is missing layups while he was at like 68% at the rim during the season. if okc goes on a run, i don't know if our team will be able to step up but i hope to see more fight out of steph. he looked so down in game 4 lol

really though, we need more out of our center spots. bogut and ezeli need to play a combined 35+ minutes for us to win this game. our small ball lineup is getting dominated right now

Not sure that's the way to go either. We can stay small and still be relatively effective against that lineup I think. Or go slightly bigger with Adams at the 5 and KD at the 4.

And as soon as you get to the bonus, we'll hack Ezeli immediately.

no i meant they need to actually play. bogut played 11 minutes and ezeli 13 in game 4 and they were a combined +7. i wouldn't play them at the same time. we just need some more rim protection and rebounding because you guys are an elite rebounding team.

Well would you expect people to stick around being ~40 down in the hole?

anyway, I expect the Raptors to adjust.

they always do it a game too late..

Oh gotcha.

Yeah, I don't see why Kerr wouldn't try it because it appears that we've figured out the death lineup. Adams is a nice trump card anytime Ezeli or Bogut is in though.

And I totally agree that rebounding is the key. No coincidence that the only game you outrebounded us you won.

Warriors look broken mentally which sucks because Cleveland is going to get a ring and I hate that.

The NeoCavs will never shut up. Can you imagine? Gucci is out there somewhere with lotion and tissues.

if the cavs get a ring it would make for a great offseason as they burn lebron's jersey again once he leaves.

Hopefully he sets up shop in cali after he wins his ring in the Land.

EDIT:

By 33MillionDollarMen Go To PostSup with these assholes who sit courtside who want to be a part of the game/show. The fuck. Ban these idiots.

Still waiting for them to move the spectators seats two rows back personally.

theyve always existed, just that now that the media is covering them they're getting further emboldened.

they made a 30 for 30 about spike lee, this shit has been ongoing

"People have been saying, especially with this last championship, that I have it easy because I play in the Eastern Conference. Which is why I've decided to take my talent to the West and join the ______."

Baseline camera ruined Chris Paul's knee and the league didn't do shit about it. I doubt it's going to go anywhere.

Everybody knows about Spike Lee but I figured he was tolerated because of his already established celeb status and it's NY. These other people though, uhm.

If we beat a 67-win then a 73-win team then give a championship to fucking Cleveland I'm not sure if I could take it.

If OKC chips thats got to be one of the best title runs in history. Knocking off a 67 win team with a historical defense and then beating the the team with the best record ever and finally handing LBJ another loss in the Finals is ridiculous.

Also, was listening to LeBatard the other day and he said that Westbrook/Durant is as good or better than any duo Jordan faced in his 6 title runs.

Is KD/YNB better than Stockton/Malone or Payton/Kemp?🤔🤔🤔🤔

Lol not touching that one. Feelings would get caught here.

By KingGondo Go To PostLol not touching that one. Feelings would get caught here.

They are all close enough and definitely go down as all-time duos.

i imagine if Ibaka wasn't 37 years old they would be straight crushing it

Ibaka has been great in the playoffs actually.

Pretty much everyone in the rotation has except ***** ****.

alright, explain this randy foye thing please

The one name we shall not speak of.

I'd be surprised if GSW lost today.

I think whoever wins game 6 wins the series (I know, kind of an obvious thing to say as if OKC wins it's over).

I think GSW win game 7 at home after winning two in a row. I can't see them losing that.

And if they win tonight, which I think they will (but OKC is obviously good enough to win too), it comes down to that game. OKC should be favored in game 6, of course. Warriors haven't proven they can really win there.

Like I said, I think the Warriors need to make certain adjustments.

1. play slower and crash the boards on defense.
2. conventional defense, no more roaming off Roberson
3. play Bogut/Ezili whenever Adams is in the game. No going small vs Adams

I'm sure there's other tweaks they can make in terms of offensive actions and such but those are the 3 biggies. Also, never put Steph on Westbrook and sometimes put Iggy on him.

They need to figure out a way to combat OKC's speed/athleticism.

Would be nice if it was a good game. Those have been sorely lacking this playoffs, sadly.

Steph can find his shot if he comes out gunning. He shouldn't feel his way through the game though. Full kobe
