    Okay all you want. They would coast for the first half and come out in 3rd quarter and turn the intensity up.

    They've been resting a couple of guys here and there but certainly not "coasting".

    Coasting is what the Hawks have been doing ever since they got 10 games above anyone else in the East. The Hawks rarely care if they lose certain games as long as they get experience against certain things like defense that switch everything, hence why they were ok when they lost 2 games to the Warriors and Thunder because both of those teams switch a lot.

    Warriors are still trying to win every game and build a strong MVP resume for homeboi Curry! Gotta make that "Best Player on the Best Team" mean as much as possible.

    So is Goran Dragic overrated? Serious question here. With him at the helm, we went on a losing streak and missed the playoffs with a 9 seed. His first year in PHX they were terrible. Last year they were good, but missed the playoffs with the 9 seed. This year, they seemed destined to end up 9 in the West yet again, but he goes to Miami and now they are in the 9th seed with a small margin of error to turn it around. He plays decent and puts up decent stats, but is he really moving the needle to the point where he is elevating his team?

    On second thought, I'm really thinking that paying him max contract money is not just a bad idea, but would be a terrible mistake. I'm wondering how Miami handles this. They gave up a lot to trade for him and their hands are kind of tied here. They have to give him what he demands or he walks and they are left empty handed.

    Damn Curry single handily taking over and bring the Warriors back. It's scary how his 3pt shooting can slash a deficit in half within minutes.

    Spurs are good. GSW is coasting. Hubie is not a Rockets hater. I'm just making observations.

    don't look now GSW is going on a run.

    Leonard instead of Marcus Morris....this team would be a lot different. However him and Parson's wouldn't have been able to both flourish, so it's hard to ponder about this situation.
