    Haven't watched one second of these Finals. Doesn't sound like I'm missing anything.

    Curry is still ahead by a country mile.

    Curry has a pretty firm grip on FMVP. Going into tonight he was -135 and Wiggins was +15000. Don’t think tonight completely changed that.

    Celtics with twice as many FT attempts, shot better from 3, Curry with a terrible shooting game and Warriors still win by 10.

    Way to piss away your chance Boston.

    Like clockwork, curry bad game or a warriors loss and this thread doesn’t move.

    kinda kills the argument curry has no help when Wiggins is out there defending the opposing teams best and still getting back to back games of huge double doubles.

    It's actually the opposite of what you said. No wonder considering your avatar is of the biggest propaganda man around (of all time probably)

    The best propaganda is when you don't even know there is propaganda. The avatar is not even close to that - in fact, he's been a victim of that.

    I have hated the Celtics all my life but the past 10yrs my hatred of the Warriors has been turned up to eleven.

    If its close no way the NBA lets the Warriors lose. We have seen that movie a few times already.

    Curry had an awful game and was still +15. Yes, plus/minus is notoriously noisy in single game samples, but just Curry being on the floor has a ton of value. Until he proves he's completely lost it, defenses are going to be warped in his direction, whether he's shooting well or badly, allowing teammates to get more open than they would otherwise. It's funny to say for someone who was as deeply inefficient as Curry was, but the Warriors legitimately don't win this game without him. That said, he did need tons of help, obviously, and got it. The Warriors survived the disaster of a bad Curry game by playing light's-out defense. Curry needs one or two more excellent games, though, if the Warriors are going to close the deal.

    Yeah but he saw Kobe do it so he'll live and die on that hill, regardless of how many times I see him do it I actually say out loud 'that's a bad shot'.

    I actually say that a lot with Tatum regardless of fadeaways or not come to think about it.

    And Wiggins! Very surprised at the outcome I thought it was over when Boston went on that run in the 3rd.

    The refs agreed that it was over when boston went on that run as well, and put the hammer down

    The double teams that Curry is receiving worked in a good way for GSW. There's a lot of open players. The man's being double teamed way out of the rainbow area.

    28 vs 16 fouls. Yup. The refs clamped somebody down.
