    I don't whether to be excited that we've made the playoffs or dismayed that it might be a short run...

    538 has already run a comprehensive simulation of this series.

    I'm scouting the Warriors right now and it doesn't look good with Curry hitting every shot he takes. Get ready Patrick Beverley

    Yep. Remember Terry had to play 31 mpg & Tjones 22 mpg in the WCF

    Plus Beverley. Dmo. Beasley. KJ

    Hope to see KJ get meaningful minutes instead of overzealous, bricking Brewer.

    Smith and DMo are both way worse than they were last season, Harden is worse on defense, Howard is much worse. Definitely not even remotely close to last year's depleted squad.

    There's Beasley, KJ, along with Bev and Dmo. Too bad the coach is Bickerstaff. Can't utilize the talent available....... not there last season.

    Maybe this jinx thread will undo that Lil-B curse/jinx. May karma come your way Lil-B x 10.

    Honest question would it be worth it to pay $300 for nosebleed seats in Oracle for G1? Watching the Warriors playing the Grizzlies right now my head says NO. If we make it to G5 I would pull the trigger but I will only be able to make a weekend game

    I hope the Rockets get some defensive practice before the series starts because Golden State runs so many off ball screens the Rockets players will be confused

    As long as they don't sweep us I'll consider it a success.
