An unlikely loss, Cub - but if it happens you have to break out a good barrel.

Heat have been good and play tough. Spurs have no Tim, no Manu & no Kyle on the road. I guess it's great that SA is still expected win no matter what home/road.

Unless it's against Warriors, tbh

Well sure, it's the only team that has been nearly as good as the Spurs.

[Reck]

:lmao

Spurs blowing the fuck outta the Heat.

Settle down, Reck. Neither of us really had any hope for it.

[Reck]

Settle down, Reck. Neither of us really had any hope for it.

To be honest, NBA.com fucked me.

I checked and Spurs were 81 to 69 and then I refreshed the page and the heat were within 8 points. Fuck?

[DPG21920]

Record wise & head to head, yes. Some advanced metrics, point differential, no. Doesn't matter though - GS is great so not being expected to win on the road down rotational players is not a slight.

All that matters is winning the last game you play (if you're in the playoffs, that is) tbh.

[D-Wade]

Whiteside lowering his value by getting ejected. Great move. :bobo

[Spurs9]

How much do the rockets get blown out by tonight?

[SupremeGuy]

Why does it feel like GS always plays at home? :lol

[Thread]

No barrel tonite.

[spursistan]

Mavs going to another OT game :lol

[Thread]

Look at ya's all happy & light. Ya's look pisser. Store bought haircuts & everything.

[steeledl]

Warriors are unstoppable man. Curry is unreal.

[RD2191]

Lol Dwert. Garbage big man. Can you imagine a prime shaq or tim against GS? They would fuckin dominate.

[steeledl]

If the Warriors played balls out all night with playoff intensity they could get to 150.

[steeledl]

Lol Dwert. Garbage big man. Can you imagine a prime shaq or tim against GS? They would fuckin dominate.

Yeah, they'd dominate for sure but I still don't know if those great Spurs teams or great Lakers teams with Shaq and Kobe could beat this Warriors squad.

[~O~]

The Heat are 27th in offensive rating. They weren't going to beat the Spurs. The Rockets offense is based off Harden getting calls. They don't have a real offense and a real defense. They are literally a team that just goes out and plays games in hopes. They aren't enforcers or trend setters. Having fired McHale, they've lost their identity and are trying to establish something.

They already lost the game. Golden State can coast on this team.

[01Snake]

So sick of seeing the faggot chewing on that oversized mouthpiece.

[steeledl]

Yo, this must be soul crushing for Harden.... dude is gonna fake an injury soon

[steeledl]

lol Lebron gonna spend the rest of his prime getting fucked by Curry and the Warriors. Nigga will never get one for the land.

[~O~]

and its only the first quarter.

Boston got a taste of Karma tonight. They kept winning close games and fell over a makeup call. New York and Washington...meh.

[TampaDude]

Warriors are unstoppable man. Curry is unreal.

Stephen Curry is a unicorn. He has perfect muscle memory. His stroke is absolutely robotically consistent.

When he was in high school, he was a short guy, so he learned to shoot high arcing shots in order to avoid getting blocked by taller defenders. While more difficult to master, it greatly increases the entry area that the ball sees when approaching the rim.

Derek Fisher used to shoot like that, but Curry has taken it to a whole new level. When all is said and done, Curry will probably go down as the greatest pure shooter of all time.

That said, the 2015-16 Warriors are stacked beyond belief. Deepest team in the NBA, bar none. They will win at least 75 games this season. They will also repeat as NBA Champions.

I've been watching NBA since the 90's.... he is by far the best shooter I've ever seen and his lightning quick release + all around offensive ability separate him from all the other shooters to play the game.

[Killakobe81]

Livongston just shook lawson out his shoes. They are so good i think they need Fezeli for the Spurs he gives them some bench size

[Robz4000]

They'd put up 200 points tbh.

[TampaDude]

Yeah, he is so quick...it's like breathing to him...100% instinctual, no thinking about it at all...he just does it. Will age slow him down? Time will tell. Right now, though, he is damn near impossible to defend. The ball is in the net before the defender realizes Curry has released the ball. You just have to hope he misses, and when he's on, he doesn't miss, period. The rest of the Warriors are pretty damn good, too. Barring injuries, GS will repeat. I guarantee it. They are better than the '96 Bulls. Much better.

[BatManu20]

Gordon Hayward just hit a buzzer-beating game-winner @ Dallas

Age will slow him down a little but all he's doing is shooting. He's not going to the rim recklessly looking for fouls. His game is solely dependent on skill. His body won't wear away like other slashing guards and forwards deal with. Curry limits his dependence on pump faking on threes to initiate contact to a discipline. He's not dependent on that low quality of basketball at all or what we like to call bail out plays. Its why his game is so clean and enjoyable to watch unlike harden's game which is an unbearable opposite.

Then for the true basketball fans who don't only watch the player with the ball. They would notice he's always moving off ball always ready to make the next play or be open on the next loose ball in position for the three pointer.

[~O~]

The Jazz have been stagnating for a long time. They haven't made noise.....or reached the top 4 of the West seeds. They've been in limbo for 6 plus...in irrelevance. Even when they were stacked with Boozer, Okur, AK47, Williams, they still were average.

No one talks about them. Do they even sell out games? I don't think they have any enjoyable players to watch.

I'm going to have to force myself to watch a Jazz game.

[resistanze]

hacking a whoever doesnt fit GSW's game

[Reck]

If the Warriors played balls out all night with playoff intensity they could get to 150.

They are already playing balls out.

This is it. They cant take it to another level. They've been at this level since the season started.

[RD2191]

Lol gay area crowd.

[Capt Bringdown]

As good as Curry is, he gets even better for nationally televised games, at least the ones I've seen.
9 for 12, 26 points at halftime.
Extremely annoying for anyone other than a Warriors fan. Might as well cancel the rest of the season, barring injury nobody is beating these cats in the post-season.
This is a fucking freakshow, and not basketball.

[spursistan]

Warriors defense has taken step back this season..I don't think that's automatically recoverable come playoff time...but it may not matter if they can slap 65-70 points halves on oppoents..

[HarlemHeat37]

Meh, they've shown they can turn it on when they need it, tbh..

It's tough to criticize anything about them:lol

[Splits]

Am I gonna be able to roll this fucker tonite?

:lmao look at this desperate fuck

Against the team we took redemption for the ages. You actually think we'd let those non-Brons do us?

You're a fucking idiot.

Get your barrel ready and roll it right down Hollywood Blvd.

:lmao

[Splits]

^At home?

Kobe: 12

Duncan: 8

Take that.

[Capt Bringdown]

The Warriors have such an overwhelming offensive match-up advantage that their defense is secondary. So much for "Defense Wins Championships."
Because their offense is beyond unstoppable, no one causes matchup problems for them.

[Silver&Black]

Lolckets by 5.

Long way to go though.

[Spurs9]

Who would have thought the rockets could be the best matchup for dubs :lol

[~O~]

Golden State is coasting so hard.

[Reck]

Hideous unis the Warriors are sporting.

[Reck]

Rockets will lose this game guaranteed.

They should be up by at least 10 right now. They didn't take advantage of the Warriors dry spell.

Blowout in 1...2.....

[Spurs9]

Curry gets too many wide open layups, he needs to be knocked on ground

[HBK]

dwight's already horrendous FT shooting is somehow getting worse as his career progresses

[DPG21920]

I hate watching HOU play. Just painful. GS, even coasts better than other teams :lol. They don't fully coast, they still do a lot of great things while coasting.

Curry takes some really stupid bad shots though. The fact he can and does make them, doesn't make them good shots.

[~O~]

Jesus

[Kawhitstorm]

Capela:lmao

[TampaDude]

Men vs. Boys out there tonight...GS by 14...book it.

[HBK]

damn

[ducks]

Gs missing their center

[HBK]

trevor ariza single-handedly keeping HOU in this right now. As soon as he starts missing its over

[resistanze]

Osama woke up tbh

[TampaDude]

I gave Harden a pen and paper the other day. He drew me a foul. :lol

[HBK]

iguodala developing into a great 3-point shooter makes GSW offense that much more lethal

[HBK]

ty lawson is so fucking shitty :lol

[resistanze]

Holy shit that lady asked he dumbest, longest question ever. Kerr was pulling a Pop.

[Silver&Black]

This GS team can eliminate a 6-7 point deficit faster than any team I can remember...

[~O~]

Game is over. Golden State decided to play.........and Curry, Green, and Thompson aren't on the floor.

[HBK]

these reporter's questions fucking suck. you think they could get someone with an iq above 60 to ask some of these already pointless in-game questions but no, they have to hire these dumb, talentless bimbos that offer nothing of value to the world to badger these head coaches while they're in the middle of a game

[Silver&Black]

Holy shit that lady asked he dumbest, longest question ever. Kerr was pulling a Pop.

To paraphrase....."Why do you let teams come back against you?"

Seriously? That's the question you went with?

[resistanze]

Her second question was somehow even dumber and more nonsensical, probably because she was rattled by his blunt response. :lol

[resistanze]

Howard is such a shitty offensive player

[HBK]

:lol dwight sucks. whatever team pays him anything near the max is guaranteeing their team mediocrity for the next 5 yrs

[Reck]

Rockets will lose this game guaranteed.

Blowout in 1...2.....

What's up?

[LakerHater]

Barnes is hitting everything
