    this warriors team is a shell of the team from the 2016-2019 era though, green is worse, klay is way worse, no KD

    Luka is so good. Take him and Curry out and the Warriors arguably have the next 4 best players.

    Harden used to have these types of games (have big #s and carry team to close loss in game 1 or 2)
    that Lukas having right now.,. to peak warriors teams, not shittier late versions like this one

    **** the Warriors man.

    Lol at the Harden fanbois reaching to justify Harden choke jobs... Harden is nothing like Luka 1st of all, 2 GSW are absolutely still a great team. Maybe slightly worst but stap tryin to lie in order to make Harden look good... He had his chance and choked...

    Stupid Warriors now healthy are going to win more chips. Imagine if they would have chosen LaMelo over Wiseman. Yeesh.

    This is how it was versus the Suns, too. Difference is that the Suns don't have the pedigree, intangibles, and coaching of Golden State so...

    Can replace Luka with Jokic and (almost) Morant, and you'd have basically a factual sentence describing the past two series.

    It wouldn't be a Warriors playoff series without the opponents eye leaking blood in Game 2 and no repercussions

    Are you not watching? They are still elite af, they are in the WCF for a reason..... Green and Klay may not be the same but they have younger players making up for it plus the championship pedigree from all the vets and Curry will always Curry...

    Curry, Klay, Poole, Lamelo, Moody would have been their guard rotation. That's actually disgusting.

    I don't think those Durant teams would have fallen behind by 14 or 19 or whatever it was.

    Luka can't even beat this inferior version of the GSW.

    what a choker. didn't need to watch, no need context. so far man couldn't carry his team. (am i doing it right?)

    Great game. The Warriors just have a great bunch that knows how to play. What a performance by their role players who dug them out of a hole!

    Mavs ran out of threes in the 2nd half.

    I so hate them. My hate of the Warriors hit a new level when Kingpin Kerr said someone else "crossed a line." Guy needs to get got on the sideline. "Oh, oops, sorry."

    If you give up more than forty points in the fourth quarter, you will usually lose.
