Been a pretty decent game so far....mainly because both teams aren't playing any defense.
Dubs have been underwhelming lately (really since March started imo), yet Guests will be guests. Who y'all got?

Its part of the reason I can't see the Dubs winning; early on they played great D but as the season's progressed their defense has disappeared. We'll see if it returns in the playoffs but I'm doubting it.
That's what I've been saying about the dubs all season. They've been ranked in the top 10 defensively for the past few seasons yet it hasn't translated to playoff success.
IDK...that is to be determined. They might just be coasting right now....either that or still celebrating that Regular Season Championship.
Hard to get an accurate appraisal of the Warriors right now. Don't know if they're just coasting since they have the number 1 seed locked up or if they're actually hitting a wall.
The whole "already got the seed locked up" is just an excuse from a team and fanbase that's full of them. They've been playing their starters against West playoff teams and looking extremely ordinary at the wrong time.
as we know, bogut is probably the most important defensive player on their team (slightly more than Green), and he missed the playoffs last year. go look at deandre jordan's numbers from the first round
Gonna be epic when the Dubs go down in flames in the playoffs.
What about the year before that? Don't remember if he was injured.
espn will shut down for a while imo. They've been sucking GS all season.
Thing is their defense has been below average for a couple months now. Offensively they're elite (in a high-paced game) but the defense has been dropping. Read somewhere a couple weeks ago their def eff has fallen to 16th in the league since ASB. The eye test suggests the same.
I'm hoping.
I don't really buy the Warriors or Hawks decline yet, tbh..maybe it's true, but I don't think you can base the assumption on these meaningless games, both teams were virtual locks for 1st a long time ago..
It will be a national holiday for ST though![]()
The Warriors just had a 12-game winning streak before hitting a little bump with SA and NO.
I wouldn't be too concerned with them. The concerns right now are just much ado about nothing.
year before that they were the #13 defensive team... pretty average. and they did give the spurs a solid fight tbh
Who'd they beat on that streak besides a dying Mavs team and Clippers team that chokes regularly? Like I said, their offense is still elite, but that isn't enough to win in the playoffs.
Wingstop® gonna all over this cute little regular season team...
Does that got ever stop chewing on that damn mouthpiece?
Another lame excuse. DeContract held his own against Bogut in the regular season that year. His numbers wouldn't have been quite as good with Bogut playing, but we still would have won the series.
Warriors = lots of trash talk, lots of excuses, and nothing to show for it when it matters.
Guests just lost Afflalo...
Starting to hope the Spurs get that 5th seed.
Could of sworn they were top 10. We'll they better hope bogut doesn't get injured. And it was only 1 game but their defense looked pretty ty against the Spurs.
