    Golden State has shown their inexperience by choking away their double-digit lead. Not only due to the youth of the players, but also Mark Jackson has also made some questionable coaching decisions in the 4th quarter.

    Spurs will likely win this game in OT, and if so the Warriors may never recover mentally for the remainder of the series, even with their raucous home crowd at Oracle Arena.

    GS said they learned from choking against Denver. Clearly they didn't because they again started running clock with 8-9 mins left. Their offense crashed and they couldn't re-boot it.

    Warriors deserve to lose. Choking shouldn't be rewarded. Curry was the biggest choker out there. What a stupid, selfish play at the end. He had no chance at a legit shot and had wide-open teammates to pass to.

    A whole lot of varying factors contributing to that.

    Obvious illegal screen by Diaw on Barnes at the end of regulation.

    I know the game isn't over yet, but Golden State blew that one.

    Man, Harrison Barnes was a solid pick for GS.

    The Harden hate would be oozing out of the GARM right about now had he disappeared like Steph did down the stretch.

    That last "iso" was painful on the eye.

    Was mainly referring to Steph Curry being a huge reason they are in the 2nd rd despite many people picking Denver to win.

    Surpassed him in what? Skill?

    Curry has always been a better player than Lin from day one.

    C-Webb needs a timeout to polish up his pronunciation of Curry's first name.
