    Draymond is way too reckless, and the league lets him get away with it time and time again

    he does a lot of dirty sh*t and tries to make it look like a basketball play

    he will kick u in the nuts, stab u in the eye, stomp on your chest, elbow u in the face

    where’s Ron Artest when u need him to elbow a dent in the side of his head and have his ass looking like

    When I find Bobby commented "Disgusting" on DB's contract, I know this would be a good signing.

    Matt's tweet is ironic because I had the misfortune of watching The Golden State broadcast and had to mute them.

    When Draymond elbowed Sengun they lost their minds about how it was a normal shooting motion. Would they have said the same if it was Dillon Brooks giving the elbow?

    Winning against a hostile crowd and GS's usual antics is very satisfactory.

    Go Houston Rockets! You can beat the Clippers!

    Ime should play Reed now. FVV needs help in the backcourt.

    The fact that Draymond was allowed to finish the game by that officiating crew is inexcusable and should be investigated, but of course it won't be because the NBA has allowed for favoritism in the league for years. You put a Dillon Brooks jersey on and pull that **** and you'd get kicked out three times. (Although Dillon probably did get away with a technical on that dunk where he hung on the rim!)

    Just catching up with the game tape now. The Warriors announcers were fixated on the idea that "windup" means swinging your arm. Which is usually how it works. But in this case, if you watch Draymond's whole motion from the time he catches the ball, the propulsion is in his legs. He has a play going upward to put the ball off the backboard, but instead he propels himself directly into Sengun, leading with his elbow to Sengun's face. The unnatural motion isn't in the arms. It's in the legs, with the elbow as his weapon.

    In Secaucus they can check all the camera angles. And in this case, the angle perpendicular to the baseline gives Draymond away.

    If Fvv can get his head out of A**.... we can take this to the next level.

    Good win. We are more likely than not stuck at the #2. With homecourt atleast until the WCF.

    No. The magic number is now 1. Lakers are the final remaining threat.

    Fred VanVleet really is holding the Team back.

    Platooning Fred VanVleet with Reed Sheppard and Aaron Holiday is needed.

    Draymond Green, Stephen Curry screaming, yelling, complaining, flagrant fouling is a sign of Fear against the Rockets.

    They know their Dynasty Run is over, another Team is Emerging as a Contender.

    Memphis tried to make Brooks the scapegoat for all the issues in that locker room, and 2 years later nothing has changed.

    I hope we keep Brooks because its a great tool for the coaching staff to have 3 really good wing defenders like Brooks, Amen, and Eason.

    Did we use the Sengun-Adams twin towers look much tonight ? I'm no expert but I have always wanted us to punish the Warriors small ball by assaulting them with inside offense.

    And the refs took away the worriers pre-package excuse for losing “they got lucky Draymond was ejected, so go ahead and celebrate your “victory “

    Curry is one of the 5 greatest offensive players of all time, Amen completely smothered him.

    One of the best defensive performances I have ever seen.

    Amen is truly an incredible player. I'm not sure I'm taking Wemby over him right now.
