Thompson trash tonight.

I hate that palming the ball is just accepted now.

Thompson trash tonight.

Yup. Really bad

 

[Dback Jon]

I hate that palming the ball is just accepted now.

It’s been that way for several decades

 

[Russ Smith]

Ja is amazing and Klay has been terrible.

not sure but it looked like after Draymonds layup, Melton stepped out with the ball and then hit the back of Bane, caught it out of bounds and inbounded it?

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

Klay wilts under pressure now…WTH

 

[SeattleCardinal]

Love watching Morant play.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

It’s been that way for several decades

But it seems more pronounced now. Or at least more widely utilized and for greater amount of steps.

All these moron pundits on the morning talkshows today asking the stupidest question ever: will the Warriors sweep the grizzlies? Seriously, how stupid is that?

 

[Dback Jon]

But it seems more pronounced now. Or at least more widely utilized and for greater amount of steps.

Definitely they’re allowing more steps for certain players

 

[Dback Jon]

Great game.

 

[Russ Smith]

In hindsight Kerr taking out Porter to go to the death lineup backfired.

 

[Russ Smith]

Why Steph?

If you mean the block by melton he was casual but that was a hell of a block again. Always loved Melton

I think the "death lineup" was granted it's title a bit too soon. That Nuggets defense can make a lot of lineups look like a "death lineup".

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

The warriors need to do to Morant what Grizz do to Curry. Press him and double team. Giving him a cushion just gives him so much confidence because he has so much space to operate and it makes them look like cowards and shows they are afraid of him.

Why are these guys getting a long break till Saturday to play again and we have to play every other day? Strange scheduling to give certain teams rest??

 

[Mainstreet]

Morant with 47 points tonight. Amazing.

The problem is the defensive end, and with Klay and Wiggins both being bad tonight. Porter was huge tonight I would have rolled with him over Wiggins

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Had t realized adams was out

We’ll I did notice this is their only 3 day rest in the series. From here on out the rest of the games are every other day for them.

 

[AsUpRoDiGy]

This series is going to 7, and whoever wins is going to be exhausted by the time we play them. Going to have to play our best to beat either one of these teams 4x.

 

[Russ Smith]

They just said again in the local post game show they think Payton has a broken elbow will do an MRI probably tomorrow to confirm it.

 

[JosiahLee]

So glad the Grizzlies pulled it off. If we’re lucky we can finish the Mavs off quick while Warriors/Grizzlies goes 7 games and earn a little rest.

Lol only? They still get a long rest and we do not?

 

[nashman]

Same for Boston and Bucks they don’t have to play again till Sat? Wth? I mean I like being able to watch us that often but seems a bit slanted to allow certain teams to rest a lot and other play every other day?
