    We need to keep up our intensity on defense, so far Capella and Howard have been tremendous shutting down the paint.

    couldnt ask for a better first quarter!

    the key is transition. we have to get back on defense to prevent their break. our half court defense can get stops, then we have to get out on the break to they can't set their half court D.

    whoever wins fast break points will win the game.

    4-10 from the foul line is not going to cut it. Hit 8-10 and we have a double digit lead.

    Man, Clint Capella.

    Wow.

    That man has earned the JVG stamp of approval already. The block, the pass, the scoring in traffic, guarding on the perimeter... just wow.

    So much credit to McHale for developing this kid to where he is already a difference maker in the Western Conference freaking Finals.

    Man, if Cepela is this good for entire series. The Warrior's front line and paint is in world of trouble. I am not scared at all if all they get is threes.

    Mutombo would be a great game for Capela to model after. Love his energy!!!

    I really like the fact that Capella growing right before our eyes

    from d-league to doing damage in the playoffs against the best team in the NBA

    I am thinking the same thing. Is free throw not within Morey's analytics?

    Tighten up the interior attack. They are soft in the middle, especially their second team.

    We're making it hard for them to score, and we're aggressive on defense. It's a little rough, but we've earned that lead.

    I'm cautiously optimistic.

    After what he's shown I don't think there's any chance they trade him. He has Dwight, deandre jordan type potential.

    Capela is our future. This dude can jump, can block, can rebound, can finish, and can pass.

    All he needs is a jump shot and learn the dream shake.

    If we keep the rest of the Warriors down, we are golden. Let curry take all the jacked up shots he wants

    They keep hitting and grabbing Harden on the arm and no call. How is he supposed to score on the drive?

    Cuz Dwight is shooting most of them.
