I'm tempted to hope for a Spurs loss. The Warriors need to lose as bad as any team in recent history. It's the ultimate must-lose for them. A Spurs loss would be a classic troll move.

Give the Warriors the 29th first round pick for $11 million and then steal their lottery pick :lmao

I like the move to rest Leonard, he has struggled somewhat at times down the homestretch, looks like he may have hit the 'rookie wall,' and he is going to be a big part of any postseason success.

that being said I could easily see Patty going for 30+, and Splitter duplicating his 26 points in 20 minutes performance against GSW's awful interior D. Let's hope we get to 50, I honestly cant seeing us falling short :toast

Have you noticed the similarities between the first and second unit?

Duncan/Tiago: 6'11'' bigmen, great pick and roll players, they also do well on the low block, great passers, intimidating presence on defense.

Diaw/Bonner: Bigmen that can shoot the three and are underrated low block defenders.

Leonard/Jack: SF that play big, solid on defense and on the boards. Streaky three point shooters but can take it to the rim.

Green/Manu: Both play balls to the wall when they're in and do a little bit of everything (blocks, steals, offensive rebounds, etc).

Parker/Neal/Mills: Score first PGs.

This. Bonner's D has been really good and has been there when called for in big games. But, his offense is more important to our play that it's alarming seeing him in this slump 12312512412523 times in a row coming into the playoffs.

Oh, I wasn't singling you out specifically. I just don't see a point criticizing a game nobody is taking seriously, players included. That said, it would be a good opportunity for some players to get some run and build some confidence before the playoffs. Matt Bonner would be one of those players.

Bonner's been busting his ass on defense. I will definitely give him that.

But again, he's here to shoot the ball. If he can't hit a shot against the Warriors who are playing rookies then he may have hit rock bottom.

He took yet another knee-to-knee shot the other night. When he shoots off one leg, he drives them pretty low. I haven't been watching for it, but I wouldn't be surprised if they're flat.

And likewise a pretty bad loss for the Spurs. No matter how many rotation players for us are sitting this out, it'll still take a gargantuan effort to out-tank this Warriors squad.

Look at it this way. Warriors win, they lose a top 7 draft pick in a top heavy draft.

Not that it would ever be likely, but you could weaken a WC rival by losing this game. The ironing would be delicious.

Spurs may have made the right choice with Anderson.

I've been on his side most of this season. I said he needed court time, I said he was a volume shooter, scorer, but it looks like he is proving me wrong with these minutes he's been getting. He hasn't taken hold of the opportunity. He really needs to give it his all this game and try and show someone that he can play. Still time to turn it around.

Anderson has just totally imploded. Pretty sad for a guy I had high hopes for, but aside from a few brief spurts, he's been terrible all season.

Oh shit are you serious. Ok Spurs better win this game then lol.

The warriors will let us win. We don't have to do anything.

The warriors will try their hardest to stay within 2 or 3 points up until the very end, but they won't go for the win.

If the Warriors have a 2 or 3 point lead late, they will occasionally stop playing defense and just let you go to the rim for an easy basket.

It was very blatant in the GSW/Lakers game.
