    They may not have anything left in the tank. Especially playing at that altitude.

    we're only going to keep getting better .

    By the end of the year this will be our rotation

    Bev(26)
    James ( 34)/ Ego ( 27)
    Dekker ( 29 ) / Ariza ( 28)
    Anderson (30) / Harrell ( 18)
    Clint ( 28) / DMO ( 20 )

    With ariza or dekker playing one of the guard spots for a short time. We already put Ariza on points for defensive purposes.

    Book it.

    Almost beat Cavs on the road too if we didn't choke down the end and they kept hitting contested 3's!

    Tough game. Great win.
    I see a lot of GS fans complaining about the green flagrant.
    Obvious flagrant from that angle

    For some reason I thought today we were going to actually beat the warriors, a team that I never feel that way about beating, and I had no plausible reason to think so. I knew Harden would struggle with his shot some (he always does against teams with multiple strong, lengthy defenders), but this was a huge win that showed Gordon, Anderson, Capella, Dekker (this guy's shown so much improvement from last season), and Harrell really step up and play as a team. Shout out to Trevor for his defense once again. Yay, big win guys

    We came back after a hard defeat against the Jazz. Good regular season wins will increase our confidence.

    Great, great win but I never compare those regular season wins to Playoff game 6 wins.

    We used to dominate the Spurs in regular season and fail in the playoffs.

    This is why the Warrior ring should have a big ruby jeweled asterisk on it. Nice to not have a missing starting PF and missing Bev.

    Best game since the Clippers series. Vast contrast from last season where this would have been a guaranteed L. The effort, perseverance and courage shown were good signs

    0.54 second mark is why I don't like Draymond

    The Warriors commentary honestly might be Down syndrome.,

    They just couldn't possibly believe green would kick someone in the face on purpose.

    Um, we literally just made a rule for that dumb ass b*stard. If you can't avoid flailing your leg into other player's teeth, you should be flipping burgers, not playing basketball.
