Watched the last few minutes of the game. The commentators seemed to even take an indirect shot at the Rockets, saying the Spurs played all their best players in this game because of their respect for the Warriors, and noted they didn't do it vs the Rockets. As if we're somehow not respected?
Just little brother trying to kiss big brother's ass. The Spurs have owned the Warriors for years. At least we compete against the Spurs.
Their bone-head commentators said that what this proves is that GS really needs David Lee to compete with the elite teams. Oh, really? You get spanked by an old spurs team barely trying with one GS-scrub (D. Lee) out and now you want to play the DNP card Seriously?? But when the rox were without D12, TJ, and Patman - the Warriors "took it to the Rockets" without any mention of 3 starters being out........FU. They also stated that the spurs held out TD and Manure against the Rox which resulted in a win for the Rockets. Seriously? Do they not know that the Rox have murdered the spurs in preseason this year, preseason last year not to mention a regular season sweep last year. All the overhype by the analysts of the GSWs is insane - just trying to help Steve Kerr their buddy - former player/commentator turned coach. I can't wait until 12-10 when we re play GS and I sure hope both teams are full strength so we can murder them. I look fwd to murdering the spurs with both sides full strength - not "resting". I want a piece of the Clippers, Mavs, and Cavs too! I would say OKC too, but they are not full strength.
man spurs do this every year in the regular season. start out looking very mediocre, and then all of a sudden turn on a switch and start winning games. For some reason, we seem to do well against the spurs in the regular season (4-0 last season!), but maybe its because they just don't take us seriously, i dunno. Then again OKC swept the spurs as well but still lost in the playoffs
Harden is a Spurs-killer. Spurs struggle against a dominant big like Howard. Look how easy the Heat was for them last finals (only had to contend with Bosh and Anderson). Spurs have no answer for our pick and roll.
I've seen 3 of their games so far and Iggy looks washed up and borderline disinterested at times. His energy level is way down. Maybe he resents coming off the bench (for literally the first time in his career) or perhaps he and Steve Kerr just don't connect. If the Warriors have serious notions of competing for a championship the next couple of years, Iggy has to contribute in a big way. If the Splash Brothers have to average 50 points and shoot 50%/40% for the Warriors to be successful, they will fail.
