Watching the Wolves Warriors game

[$pursDynasty]

Man the Wolves are taking it to the Warriors, and it looks like everyone is playing. I wonder how hard the Dubs go after this one. Kerr might have bigger problems than worrying about the Spurs game tomorrow. His team hasn't looked right since KD went down. If they go all out tonight and lose then well what am I saying what chance do the Spurs have tomorrow without the KingSlayer and MVParker? Kerr might need to start resting players very soon even more than Pop.

[bklynspursfan]

It's simple, they've looked like crap since KD went out. They have had a pretty rough schedule too lately, but they overall just haven't looked good lately.

I have 0 fear of them without KD. Curry and Klay have been in a serious funk too. If Curry is missing 3s, what else is he good for?

Klay and Curry could turn it back on at any moment, but right now (and for the season), they are definitely not playing like they were during 73.

They also don't have the supporting cast around them. They gave up a lot of tools to become KD-reliant, and without him, it's pretty much on Steph, Thompson, and Green to play well to win.

Still early in this one, though. We saw the other night how quickly a deficit can turn around, so I'll reserve judgement until the 4th.

[HarlemHeat37]

The narrative that they lost depth is kind of true, but overplayed, tbh..it's been repeated everywhere, but their supporting cast production isn't any different than last season..Bogut was a slight upgrade over Pachulia/McGee, but everything else is the same..Leandro Barbosa isn't the difference:lol

The only major difference and the reason they're struggling is that Curry(and Thompson, until tonight) looks horrible, that's all there is so it..if you put this version of Curry on last year's Warriors, they win around 50 games..

Curry is shooting 20% on wide open 3s the past 10 games..just a mind-boggling slump..

I don't want to jinx anything...but the averages have to regress to the means eventually. Steph has had an amazing run the past couple seasons and rightfully deserves the praise for the things he was able to do...but there is a reason no player has come out and been able to play like that year-after-year before. He's still a jump shooter, and once that magic tough leaves him, he will still be a very good player...but not the goddamn Konami-Code motherfucker he has been since 2015.

Definitely agree..I think he can replicate 2015, but last year was the best season a PG has ever had, he was never going to sustain that level of play..

He's nowhere near as bad as he has been the past 10 games, though, of course..hopefully tomorrow isn't the game where he breaks out..

[Hoops Czar]

Bogut > Pachulia

Ezeli > West

Barnes >> McCaw

Speights =/= McGee

Barbosa =/= Ian Clark

But it is. :lol

wow the Dubs version of Forbes??? Seriously just kidding I would never disrespect Curry like that.

It's kind of true, as I said in my edited post prior to your reply..if you compare all those players to their individual counterparts, the production isn't much different, slightly worse, more injuries..

The biggest difference in their bench success is that Livingston has fallen off a cliff, for some reason..

[spursistan]

It should be mentioned Wolves have been the 4th best team in the West since the ASG break..this wasn't going to be a gimme for GSW..

[spurs10]

Go T'wolves!!!

[skin27]

The twolves will choke late in the 4th!! Book it.

[skin27]

I see the wolves giving up the lead before the 3rd quarter ends!!tsk

[spursistan]

Curry is playing like just another point guard, but watch him drop 40 on us tomorrow :lol

[cd98]

Wolves aren't making the playoffs. This is their championship game.

[Uriel]

Let's not overthink why the Warriors have been slumping as of late. They're tired.


The Warriors are in the midst of playing eight games in eight cities in three time zones over the course of 13 days.

Kerr pays close attention to what the computerized tracking data says about player workload, and he told ESPN before Wednesday's 99-86 loss to the Boston Celtics (http://www.espn.com/nba/team/_/name/bos/boston-celtics) that a couple of guys are "fried" right now (he didn't say which guys).
http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/18864603/nba-golden-state-warriors-rest-starters-risk-no1-seed-playoffs

[baseline bum]

No way Minnesota is holding that lead. It's what they have done all season, get 10 point leads on teams and then blow it in the fourth.

[bklynspursfan]

wow the Dubs version of Forbes??? Seriously just kidding I would never disrespect Curry like that.

he can dribble and create, far from Forbes. Be he's no where near as impactful when he's cold. And they don't have the firepower they did in previous years to make up for it

[Uriel]

I know you're trying to jinx the Warriors, but I don't think they're going to come back. They're gassed.

See my post above yours.

Ya, this is true, as well..

http://i63.tinypic.com/2db1q1w.jpg

[hater]

Harrison Barnes fit the Worriers like a glove. They miss that big time

[look_at_g_shred]

No one was giving us a break during our road trip. Fuck those faggots

[spursistan]

If Minny hold on here for 3 more minutes i could see Kerr wave the white flag and angle for the Spurs game.

[Uriel]

So of course the Warriors go on a huge run and cut the deficit to 4. :rolleyes

[HarlemHeat37]

If Minny hold on here for 3 more minutes i could see Kerr wave the white flag and angle for the Spurs game.

So much for that:lol

You can see why Minnesota struggles to close out games with all those young guys, their shot selection and decision making is horrible..if you ended the game after the 3rd quarter, they would be the 6 seed, right now..

[skin27]

Here comes the warriors comeback with still 8minutes left to play..

[skin27]

You just said they're not going to comeback..

[skin27]

So of course the Warriors go on a huge run and cut the deficit to 4. :rolleyesyou just say that they're not going to make a comeback..isn't it?

I don't believe in jinxes. And lol it's a four point game now.

[skin27]

Twolves should continue to make shots!!just don't choke!!!

[ace3g]

KAT needs to dominate in paint...

[ace3g]

Wolves catching some breaks but didn't capitalize...

[spursistan]

This KAT choking sequence..:lol

[hater]

:lmao Towns. What a cancer :lmao

[Uriel]

Warriors expending every ounce of energy they have left to try and complete this comeback.

Would be amazing if Minnesota still held on to win, though now I doubt it.

[TheGreatYacht]

Towns purposely tanking against the Dubs like KD did in the playoffs :lmao

Missed easy bunnies, missed free throws even though he shoots 82%, "falls" while posting up, fouls Curry shooting a 3

[Arcadian]

Wolves choking

[SpurPadre]

Is it safe to say this Wolves team would have a much easier time beating a Kawhi-less Spurs team than a Durant-less Dubs team?

[TheGreatYacht]

Towns doesn't come celebrate a Wiggins and-one :lmao

Losing on purpose lmfao

[hater]

Why is Towns tanking niggas??

[TheGreatYacht]

Why is Towns tanking niggas??
Raymond most likely already recruited him like he did KD tbh

Duds need a Center and who wants to live in Minnesota

[spursistan]

Gonna choke it per par..

[Arcadian]

:lol Zaza

[spursistan]

:lmao

[hater]

This got Wolves choke signed all over it

[ace3g]

FTs....

[TheDoctor]

Andrew Wiggins already a Spur tbh

[Uriel]

KAT and Wiggins bricking free throws like they're Gasol and Aldridge.

[timtonymanu]

This is hilarious

[SpurPadre]

FTs....

Spurs-like crunch time free throw shooting, tbh.

[spursparker9]

Man...is this Dub homecourt?

[TheGreatYacht]

Towns and Wiggins choking free throws :lmao

Ive never seen a luckier team

[lofds]

Fucking chokers man! We need this game!

GET A STOP!

[spursparker9]

Andrew Wiggins already a Spur tbh
would trade fathead or juice for him!

[TheGreatYacht]

Duds got lucky like this at least 20 times last year :lmao

[Arcadian]

God dammit

[timtonymanu]

At least Wolves making sure the Dubs starters play a lot tonight.

[Uriel]

Of course.

[spursparker9]

At least Wolves making sure the Dubs starters play a lot tonight.

They are young. They dont worry about back to back

[Uriel]

Would be amazing if this game went to OT, tbh.

[spursistan]

Make one fuckin stop..

[SpurPadre]

Hacka-Wiggins backfired

[TheGreatYacht]

Get Towns the fuck outta there

[SpurPadre]

I sense a Curry shimmy coming up...

[GSH]

Almost as good as a Spurs win.

[ace3g]

jump ball on Warriors side of court, fluke shot incoming...

[midnightpulp]

We getting slaughtered tomorrow, unfortunately.

[spursistan]

They are trying to bail them out :lol

[SpurPadre]

Damage has been mitigated, tbh.

[TheDoctor]

They are trying to bail them out :lol

[ace3g]

!!!!

[Uriel]

Best case scenario, tbh. Warriors expend tons of energy rallying from a 17-point deficit, only to fall short.

Now they come into San Antonio tomorrow on the 2nd night of a back-to-back.

[lofds]

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOOLOLOLOLOL OLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL OL:rollin

[Arcadian]

We getting slaughtered tomorrow, unfortunately.

The Spurs are coming off a loss too. I think we'll be ok.

[$pursDynasty]

hopefully Kerr sees no Kiwi and rests all of his guys

[TheGreatYacht]

King Wiggins :worthy:

Fuck pussKAT

[hater]

Worriers by 65

[ducks]

Curry will get well against spurs no Leonard to slow him down
He was off tonight
Green will guard Thomson

[spurs10]

Love it!! Made my night!

[Uriel]

If only we had won yesterday's OKC game, we could've been playing for the 1 seed tomorrow. :pctoss

[spursistan]

Gonna depend on how much time Kawhi miss, but a loss tomorrow doesn't kill our chances at Top seed after this result..This Warriors team can lose to any decent team on the road... I see potential of other Ls on the road for them..

[TheGreatYacht]

Whoever D-League Danny guards will go off like they always do unfortunately

[timtonymanu]

Good game for Aldridge to get his shit together. Also will be the first time Verde plays the Warriors this season.

We know Kawhi will show up against the Dubs when it matters so it's time for the other guys to step up.

[look_at_g_shred]

Was hoping they would lose in OT

[spurs10]

The Spurs are coming off a loss too. I think we'll be ok. Yeah we don't like consecutive losses any more than they do. Without Kawhi we have nothing to lose.

[ducks]

Lee and gasol and LMA Better go off

[Uriel]

Good game for Aldridge to get his shit together. Also will be the first time Verde plays the Warriors this season.

We know Kawhi will show up against the Dubs when it matters so it's time for the other guys to step up.
Kawhi won't be playing tomorrow.

[spurs10]

Was hoping they would lose in OT That would have even more gleeful, but I'll take the 1 point loss.

[MultiTroll]

How badly was the lil faggot Curry gloating after he hit the 102-101 shot with 19 seconds left?

[SpurPadre]

Whoever D-League Danny guards will go off like they always do unfortunately

Danny has history of guarding Curry well.

[timtonymanu]

Kawhi won't be playing tomorrow.

When it matters = in the postseason. So it's a good test for Aldridge and everyone else since Kawhi isn't playing tomorrow.

[timtonymanu]

Whoever D-League Danny guards will go off like they always do unfortunately

You mean Porker and Patty

[SpurPadre]

I foresee Curry getting caught in a mismatch at some point, leaving him to guard Aldridge...and he'll go for an 18 foot fadeway.

[bklynspursfan]

Good game for Aldridge to get his shit together. Also will be the first time Verde plays the Warriors this season.

We know Kawhi will show up against the Dubs when it matters so it's time for the other guys to step up.

Agreed. And if they do show up and win (I believe they're capable), it'll do wonders going into our last matchup and a potential playoff series

I can hear the announcers saying that one of their scrubs is having a career night. Maybe two.

But yes, the Spurs should be able to beat their scrubs, even without Kawhi.

[YGWHI]

Plz Pop, don't rest LMA, Danny, Patty, Simms, and Manu tomorrow...:lol

[HarlemHeat37]

Curry should sit out a week or so, tbh..he's barely better than Tony Parker, right now:lol

[spursistan]

Plz Pop, don't rest LMA, Danny, Patty, Simms and Manu...:lol
Yeah, i would be holding a torch and pitchfork in front his office if he does that..

[sasaint]

I can hear the announcers saying that one of their scrubs is having a career night. Maybe two.

Only if good Manu plays. I fear we will need some crunch time heroics. I don't like the idea of this game at all.

[SpurPadre]

I bet he plays 15-20.

Looks likely now.

[TimDunkem]

Spurs lose if Forbes gets big minutes. That guy is the new Fathead. Guaranteed run for the other team every time he comes in. Complete dead weight, tbh.

[spursistan]

Warriors are dumb to tank this game, tbh..With Durant return iffy, they could really be in trouble Memphis or OKC if keep playing like this..

[SpurPadre]

Curry should sit out a week or so, tbh..he's barely better than Tony Parker, right now:lol

Ok, now that's just hyperbole. Curry isn't struggling THAT badly.

[HarlemHeat37]

I disagree..they're clearly gassed, they aren't going to be winning anything if their top guys keep playing like this, anyways..

Health and form is more important than seeding..also, why should the Warriors be scared of the Spurs having HCA, anyways? Spurs had HCA in the 2nd round and blew it, just last season:lol

I don't think Pop cares about the #1 seed as much as we do, either..at least it doesn't appear that he does, based on his rotations..

[808]

Somebody's gonna regret that huge Stubhub expenditure.

GS fine incoming? Or too much of a league darling to be on that end?

[Dex]

Warriors are seriously falling apart without KD. I knew he was putting up monster numbers there...I just didn't realize how badly they depended on it.

Whether he comes back healthy in the playoffs or not, the Warriors are sending the script to every defensive coach right now. Try to neutralize Durant, cover the 3-point line, and you stand a fighting chance,

That's ONLY if Thompson and Curry carry their slump into the playoffs.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

That's ONLY if Thompson and Curry carry their slump into the playoffs.

The Warriors without Durant aren't the same as the last couple years' Warriors without Durant. Not having any solid bigs and Harrison Barnes was a better defender and glue guy than people gave him credit for.

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

If the Warriors limp into the playoffs and square off against Clippers or Thunder, they could be in big trouble. Again, this is a big IF, and this is if Curry and Thompson continue their slumps into the playoffs with an unhealthy KD.

[Mikeanaro]

If this rest thing is true, we really need Manu to win the game.

[MultiTroll]

It's still gonna be Pop vs Kerr so don't put any money on it.

[$pursDynasty]

National late night radio roasting the Dubs calling them mentally fragile. Afraid of the team's mindset if they go for the #1 seed and don't get it. We didn't want that number one seed anyway let the Spurs have it. LMAO. Epitome of a frontrunner., arrogant as F when everything going their way but the wheels come off when they face adversity.

Don't get me wrong, I agree they've regressed from last year. But with Curry and Thompson on your team, their shooting could get you far if they find their rhythm.

[MultiTroll]

I don't think Pop cares about the #1 seed as much as we do, either..at least it doesn't appear that he does, based on his rotations..
We've been thru this before, as recently as 2015 when #2 seed was up for grabs and Cutesy Pop Lineups dropped us to 6th.

He could get away with his chit when he had Prime Duncan GNob Bowen Horry and serviceable Parker. It's beyond old now.

NBA knows Westbrook vs Durant in playoffs will save their horrible ratings. Spurs will get 1 seed no matter how hard pop trys to avoid it.

[Dex]

That's ONLY if Thompson and Curry carry their slump into the playoffs.

Not saying that they are an easy out, by any means. The potential of Steph, Klay, and Donkeyface are enough to keep them as favorites, even if they are slumping right now.

But they are vulnerable, and not as unbeatable as many seem to have assumed...even with KD.

[SAGirl]

So tomorrow night will be the Santa Cruz warriors vs. the Austin Spurs.
In the 2014-15 season that would have been an interesting game both teams had some NBA taleng back then... right now I don't know... when Bryn is one of their best players... one wonders.

I know that wasn't the joke ... but Austin had a good team that season and Santa Cruz ended as the dleague champion...
I think both teams are mediocre this season... to bad.

[TheDoctor]

Curry should sit out a week or so, tbh..he's barely better than Tony Parker, right now:lol

[Ice009]

NBA knows Westbrook vs Durant in playoffs will save their horrible ratings. Spurs will get 1 seed no matter how hard pop trys to avoid it.

If they wanted the Thunder Vs Warriors, why didn't they favor the Spurs more in yesterday's game? I don't think they give a shit about the Spurs getting the number 1 seed. If they did, calling the fouls and game better yesterday would have helped that a lot.

I can't believe Kawhi is out for tonight's game. How long is he likely to miss?

If the Warriors really are resting all those players, then the Spurs better win the game. Pop better not be a pussy and try and tank that number 1 seed. Get mentally focused and stay locked playing for the Championship.

Oh, and that rest shit from Pop is bullshit. Nothing good EVER comes from it. Fucking Kawhi gets hurt the next game anyway, and his insane rhythm that he develops is always broken. I only ever agreed with resting Tim and Manu. No-one else ever should have rested the past 6 years or so if they weren't injured.

They are gassed and not playing well. Even without Kawhi Spurs were going to be tough team to beat on the road. If they are missing shots bc they are gassed then have to get into a grind game against the Spurs which is a losing proposition bc that's the Spurs game. Spurs OTOH still have all their bigs, they would have Manu back, and role players play better at home plus they are coming off a loss. I would think Pop doesn't play Bryn or Anthony with all his bigs healthy, Manu back and hopefully Kyle too.

Good choice by Kerr. I really don't think he would have done it if he really didn't have guys on fumes.

I only ever agreed with resting Tim and Manu. No-one else ever should have rested the past 6 years or so if they weren't injured.

I haven't seen the entire team second guess their wide open shots so much all season. That was a really weird game. They all shot like crap and Forbes, who is a 3 OT specialist(all he is at this point) passed up every open look he got. Patty, green, as well. Simmons missed a bunch of point blank layups, Patty missed a couple. Pau was playing absolutely horrendous to the point of rookie Murray yelling at him for his pack of defense. Dedmon continues to nose dive to reality and showing his mental weakness. He plays incredibly lazy(decision making) when he is being outplayed. Had a bunch of horrible passes.. had a handful of guys play their worse game, and then the thunder role players were making all their shots. I'll take us losing on a bad rhythm night. That won't last a series. As long as they don't do it consistently. If I see a crap game Saturday, I'll worry some.

Honestly, Joel Anthony showed he still can bang down low. He seemed to match up with the thunder much better than gasol(well obviously) or dedmon surprisingly.

It'll get better. And the league has definitely favored the spurs lately. Kawhi playing amazing gives them a reason to sell the spurs while their high. Kawhis Injury came at the worse time though. Just when he was making a case for mvp.

Spurs need to gonup big in the foster half and then let the scrubs go at each other. You know Pop and Kerr will be playing with a lot of mutual respect and not out to run up the numbers. Just as long as we win!!

What's ABC gonna do? Switch to Lakers-Nyets?

Watching the Dubs and Spurs scrubs is probably still better than that, tbh

Well at least HoF MVPelon, MVPau... LmA and Tony (if they are playing... I don't know with Pop's cute rest ideas if they are... or how Tony is doing really.) are worth watching. Even Lee has a nice game, a former All Star. etc.

"The Johnsons are going to the game??? How did they get tickets to the game?"

"They were stupid enough to buy them before Ethiopantula and Kawhi injuries" :lol

So much drama, damn :lol

[CGD]

Bogut > Pachulia

Ezeli > West

Barnes >> McCaw

Speights =/= McGee

Barbosa =/= Ian Clark

But it is. :lol

Except that they replaced Barnes with KD! So this isn't exactly on point. That said, they did lose depth at the front line positions.

[cutewizard]

warriors will go down with their mouths this season, shouting excuses, lol

[buttsR4rebounding]

I foresee Curry getting caught in a mismatch at some point, leaving him to guard Aldridge...and he'll go for an 18 foot fadeway.

:lol

I was at a bar with Lil Jon DJ'ing in Vegas, last Summer..one of the worst sets I've ever experienced, tbh..

Lol. Almost all "turn up rap" artists like him are terrible live tbh. Rap in general is one of the worst genres of music to attend live, and I'm a huge fan of hip-hop otherwise.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Don't get me wrong, I agree they've regressed from last year. But with Curry and Thompson on your team, their shooting could get you far if they find their rhythm.

They're basically the 2013 or 2014 warriors without Durant, the same team we beat in 6 in 2013 second round.
