    That Spurs had a different game plan last night and Pop is the master of adjustments. It doesnt matter how many points you win by in a series with Pop. You have to win four.

    Curry shot 1-14 for a reason. Maybe he won't shoot that bad again against the Spurs next time. But Pop won't let him go crazy either.

    Did you watch the game? GSW kept the game CLOSE until the final minutes. A few threes from the best shooting team in the league (sadly, not that night) could have sealed a GSW win in the end. Whatever. I just wish both teams have their full roster and NOT playing after a b2b the next time they meet.

    I saw a great game plan.

    Curry won't play well against them in a playoff series.

    That was great to watch.

    Stick Leonard on Thompson one on one.

    Double Curry and let Barnes and Co beat you.

    Yeah, a few threes from the second best shooting team in the league and GSW still doesnt win. Two can play that game?

    You must have not watched many playoff games. The playoffs go back and forth. Winning by x amount of points doesnt matter. Pop has a game plan against the Warriors and I expect Kerr to adjust too. But as of now, the Spurs have the Warriors figured out, no matter if they were healthy or not. In fact, this would be a blowout if Bogut and Iggy were playing as they are non shooters and the Spurs don't have to get too close to them allowing them to stay closer to the rim and guard inside shots.

    The warriors will get home court. Spurs ain't going to beat them in the playoffs.

    LMAO. You make it sound like Pops wants his guys to make the game as close as possible. The opposing team will always build as big a lead as they possibly can against any team ESPECIALLY against GSW and the closing minutes was the only time they were able to do so. Remember that OKC game? You can't let up no matter what against the Warriors and Spurs did exactly that with their stifling defense.

    Warriors and Spurs are 1-1 so far. We'll have to see in April if the Spurs really have the Warriors "figured out".

    I think pop will happily give you all GS missing players back if he gets a healthy Duncan.
