Good morning. Just checking in to say the Warriors are finished and they done.

This is OKC's year word to @a-friend
 
Steph was out there doing 360 dunks in warmups last night. As to why he can't get by Ibaka and Adams, besides them being athletic bigs who you can trust with a switch like that, they are both dedicated to pushing him off the line yet he insists to try to create a 3 against them. If he just blew by them, he'd get by easily.

I agree...hell even when he wasn't chucking up 3's, he was blowing layups left and right these past two games.

People saying he's "hurt" is giving him a pass, imo, and this will definitely cause more hate towards Steph.
 
:nerd:

my best friend is a die hard warriors guy. he didn't want steph playing against Portland unless the series was tied


Me neither, they coulda beat Portland without him.


Curry season

30/5/6.7 on 50/45/90.

69% FG at the rim.

Playoffs

24/5/5 on 45/38/90.

57% shooting at the rim.


Like I said, OKC hasn't done anything special defensively with him either. They're switching everything and he can't even get by or shake Ibaka or Adams.

That's not him being "shook" or overrated that's a guy who's already not best athlete in the league playing hurt.

Those playoff numbers include the Houston series where he barely played :lol: of course his per game numbers would look off if you're including games where he only played 18 mins.

If you exclude that series & only look at games that he actually finished, he was averaging 31/7/6 on 49/43/100 heading into game 4 last night.

So 31/7/6 vs. 30/5/6 in the reg season. C'mon.

Even after the brickfest last night, he's at 29/6/6 on 48/40/95.

Not really sure where all this "curry is hurt" talk is coming from. Y'all making excuses now. They have just been getting out played, flat out. No excuses from me.

The stupid turnovers and rushed shots have been the main reason for these losses.


Observation? Just a hypothetical? Agree it isn't the reason GS is down, thus not an excuse for them or from me. I just said it is possible; and obviously it wouldn't have come up at first when he came back and looked great. That would've been absurd
 
curry gonna game 6 bron it next game?

edit.

the next 2 games.


GSW better hope so, they better hope that Dray finds his game again.


I feel like his haircut is holding him back, this man is a millionaire with a fade that looks done by his mom.

I never said ya'll were making an excuse as to why the Warriors are losing.

It definitely does sound like you guys are making an excuse as to why Steph isn't playing great though. The only thing that's hurt on Steph right now is his game. He's flat out getting out played by Russ.

I can admit when I'm wrong. I honestly didn't think OKC would get past the Warriors or even make it to the NBA Finals. After seeing their continuous inefficiencies in closing out games, I was convinced they didn't have what it takes to play at this high of a level.

I had the Spurs winning it all when the playoffs began, but then I switched to the Warriors once Curry had those big games and figured they went back to form.

After watching these last 2 games, OKC is certainly looking like the best team with the 2 best players in this years playoffs.

It's good to be a Thunder fan right now, @a-friend

I was definitely one of the non-believers throughout the season on OKC and thought they'd get WASHED no problem if they played the Warriors. They've proved me wrong and much props to them but it's not over yet and I feel like the Warriors can still pull it off.
 
What a shame, was really hoping for a healthy cavs team to redeem themselves against the Warriors this year
Except cavs would have lost anyway. They've just been 3 happy the entire post season and wouldn't have outshot GSW in the finals

Now here's to hoping KD doesn't shrink against Lebron in the finals. I'm fine with KD emerging as the best player in the league for the next few years even as a GSW fan. I've said all year that the only way I'll be happy if GSW fails, is if Durant and Russ do it instead
 
this just seems so scripted for the warriors to make a comeback best team since the 96 bulls ran through the regular season now their backs against the wall a zillion **** riders saying the thunder were always the better team etc
