    Terrific. If we had won Game 5, even without Dwight, we would've had a decent shot at extending the series to 7 had Thompson not played.

    I don't know. Thompson hadn't been much of a factor until Game 4 and only for the short stretch that Curry was out. He started getting hot in Game 5.

    That said, how crappy are the doctors for the Warriors. I think the NBA should look into it and, if there was wrongdoing, sanction the team.

    I feel for the man. Nvr want a player to be hurt but that's why leaning in and unnaturally drawing contact is a bad decision.

    Damn, Klay is the only GSW starter I actually like. Doesn't seem like a douche like the rest. Hope he recovers soon.

    It would of been huge. Ariza would have been chasing Curry instead of Thompson.

    Klay is being listed as probable for game 1. I doubt he misses any time.

    They have HD high frame rate video that shows him getting blasted in the head. A huge advantage to an ER doctor bringing in a trauma victim or even an NFL doctor.

    The NBA is way behind the times in protecting against concussions.

    Prayers sent out to Klay and his family. Hope he has a speedy recovery and that this does not effect his career after the time it takes to heal!

    Don't mess with Lord Threeza!!!

    NBA should fine GSW. Fishy business with both Curry and KT head injuries.

    They be bullsittin man. Everyone knew it was a concussion when he came back out and had his ear bleeding. Laceration, shiiii. If it was still in doubt, reports were he was throwing up, couldn't drive, etc. after the game. Come on. If the team is doing that so he can play, that's MESSED UP. If he told them to keep it under wraps, he's putting his well-being in danger. There will be other games to play. Crazy.

    Trevor is lucky that he didn't injure his knee. Bad break for Thompson.

    If Klay Thompson doesn't play, at least the playing field is equal since Love is missing for the Cavs and Kyre is not 100%.

    This. Game 1 line barely moved, maybe a half point.
