    I'll never give the Warriors credit...they get so much favoritism from the refs. You can't breath on Curry! I just can't! 24-0*:mad:

    I have a feeling we will beat the Warriors in the New Year's game, but seriously though, the Warriors are so damn good in so many ways that even if they struggle with their shot like they did tonight, they just find ways to win with hustle & defense. You have to play a near perfect game to beat these turds.

    Their role players came up big in OTs.

    Curry was no where to be found during two of the OTs.

    They know that when your superstar is struggle they need to lean on defense more than ever to win games.

    It's impressive that even when Curry has a (way) off shooting night, he's still pretty efficient...his field goal percentage was ugly, but he scored 38 points on 27 shots...that's a 0.703 true shooting percentage. The turnovers are the major blemish for him (but he chipped in 10 boards and 8 assists). Basically, it's becoming hard to imagine Curry having an actually bad game (as opposed to "bad for him").

    Also, the Warriors as a team shot horribly from three-point territory (despite Curry shooting the three-ball well) and they still pulled out a win against a good team, on the road, near the end of a long road trip...missing two starters. Wow. They have so many paths to victory...people assume that the Warriors can't win if threes don't drop, but they still have defense, great passing and drives into the paint.

    Was there a point where the standings were determined by losses, w/ wins taken into account only where teams were tied in the loss column? Am I nuts?

    Didn't understand your question until I looked at the standings and saw the Rockets are the 7th seed with 12 losses and Utah is 8th with 11.

    You're not nuts. I thought standings were determined by the losses no matter the games played too. Silver did do away with Division Champions maybe something else was changed.

    Weird conference standings math in play here I guess.

    Thought I was going crazy. I guess it won't matter in the end, but it'll cause quite a bit more flux during the course of the season. Weird.

    Seth Partnow? That's the most hipster name ever. I wonder if these new age writers just make up these ****ing names. Like Beckley Mason, Haberstroh Johns, Windhorst Calhoun.

    Before tonight's game was taken into account, per 100 possessions, curry has 5.1 turnovers and harden has 5.9

    It's really not that big of a difference.
