    if Jalen becomes a 35 point threat in the playoffs, we’re easily championship contenders.

    Eh, didn't think it's anyone's fault. Looks like Amen got pushed by Adams but tripped over donkey's outstretched leg and just caught Butler square. I sincerely doubt Amen had intentions like he did with Herro or Kleber. It was certainly less intentional than what Spencer was trying to do to Amen at the end.

    I think it all started with Jalen getting a few early assists , he was letting the game come to him, rather than forcing silly stuff.

    I don’t. I won’t give a F if all their starters are injured. They can have all the excuses they want, and I’ll take the series win.

    After a game like THIS, I can feel Jalen having the confidence to do anything now. And he is definitely a confidence-centric player. Fred didn’t do a bad job, he took a step back in the offense and let Jalen and Alpi cook, steadying the ship when he had to.

    Just a great game overall, and I don’t even think we played that well. If the Rockets actually get their offense going, the Warriors are cooked.

    I feel like the offense unlocked tonight, even if Butler comes back which I'm expecting he is since its a bruise. Regular season he'd be out a week or two but its the playoffs...I expect Butler back.

    But they unlocked Green tonight, it's not just coincidence, they got Curry off him for a lot of this game and no one else could hold him.

    Go watch the replay again, that was on Green pushing Thompson.

    Good game. Nice to wash off the stink that was game one. Still need better from Fred, but I'll take it!

    My vitriol for that team is almost surpassing Yankees dodgers level. The sh*t they get away with. Media darlings. Can't fcking stand it.

    great win. Gotta keep up that physicality. Time to get this playoff monkey off our backs.

    What the F is this? Has it occurred to you he was the main reason we got the big lead?

    I got a badly timed phone call down the strech, what did Spencer try to do to Amen?

    Agree but don't need to be playing FVV 42 mins. in a game that is over with 1/2 the 4th qtr. left. First, his performance doesn't warrant 42 mins IMO and secondly, why put 42 mins. on 37 year old legs ?
