    Warriors' big men are good free throw shooters. So jealous.

    Defense wasn't even that great for the Warriors. Pellies had several open shots that didn't fall.

    Harden is more aggressive... I could see harden averaging 12+ assists a game.

    What team is going to be able to stop Golden State? It would have to be the best perimeter defensive team in history..
    Unbelievable how good their team offense is.

    A. Davis 1/4 FG with 2 points. Check
    Leave T. Evans and Pondexter open Check.

    Pelicans looked like a team with little playoff experience in the first Q.

    I'd be a lot more confident if we had Bev...

    You're best chance is to just sell out on stopping Curry and hope that Klay/Barnes/Iguodala are missing their jumpers, which is certainly possible.

    The Spurs have a good shot simply because Kawhi can single handedly stop Curry. Not sure there's another guy in the league who can match him one on one defensively.

    Norris Cole is everything for the Pels right now!

    Curry sits down. Warriors offense suffers.

    You think Bogut and Ezeli are good FT shooters?

    Cole has some stones and Ajinca playing better than AD on offense.

    Pels need to play with more aggression. It seems like they have no tough guys on their team. They don't seem to play to their strengths either. I'm not sure how this team won 45 games.

    These mother****ers just jack up shots regardless of how contested it is. *******. And they make them.
    Thankfully New Orleans is slowly getting their **** together.

    Pels need to play tough.

    Warriors can be exposed.

    I think you need to start attacking Curry and Thompson repeatedly.

    Post of Green and get him in foul trouble.
