Game Thread: Spurs vs Warriors — Mon. (3/18) - 7:00/CST (2:00am Riga Time)

The most difficult game of the season, tbh. The Dubs have that killer look in their eyes again after getting embarrased by the Suns and are bringing back a familiar face to likely play some key minutes tonight in Andrew Bogut. Cousins is questionable with an ankle injury, though. Regardless, winning tonight would be the most impressive of the season. Let's pull off the upset, everyone!

Spurs by 3

Boogie out, Iguodala out. A fighting chance. Could be anything...

Spurs by 7

Cousins being out is bad news, tbh. They're more difficult to beat without him -- especially for the Spurs.

These aren't the Warriors of the past few years, they're vulnerable this season. Dubs 150 Spurs 75.

lol

I'm looking forward to this game. Just to see where we stand against the top dawgs. Even if we win, i still would not want to play them in the 1st round. I hope we are able to avoid them at all cost.

But we'll see.

I disagree. When Cousins has a good day, it's game over. We'll probably see some tricked-up 3-2 zone with Aldrige and Poeltl, which is suicide if Boogie plays. But has a lot of potential against a no-center team.

I am curious to see if White will constantly attack Curry on offense, and if Thomson will guard Marco or Bertans, he is a super defender but not so mobile on long cuts away from the ball, Marco could get him tired (Iguodala not playing leaves not that many defensive options to Kerr).
Hopefully Gay can post up KD and bang him sore.
The real challenge will be for DDR on defense, he will be exposed naked, that's why I expect the zone and in this context, Boogie's absence is very positive.

Or maybe the Dubs just go nuts and score 25-35 from 3.

Can Durant be one more game out, or at least on a minutes restriction? Please.

Cousins was also dominant on both ends 5 days ago against the Rockets, too.

I’m glad Iggy is out he always seems to kill the Spurs

In other news, Load Management doing Load Management things and is out tonight against the lowly Knicks. 60 game season for her. No way in hell she deserves a max contract.

:lol tbh

easy money

Spurs should win this with all those players out for the Dubs.

Please put Durant and Curry on the floor at least once each on their drives.

Stop the pussiness.

Sure but that won't stop Curry and Thompson from taking turns ass-ramming Mills and Forbes and giving both of them a Dirty Sanchez, tbh. The key tonight will be if LMA and DDR can dominate and take us home with White and Gay being x-factors.
