Manu made a lot of bad passes per par. He giveth and he taketh.....
Bogut, ya, probably..
Iguodala is huge against the Spurs, though..

Spurs have to play absolutely perfect to defeat the Warriors in a 7 game series. There's no denying that. The Warriors are the defending champs and are literally having the best season in NBA history. Amazing that there are still people on this forum with their heads buried in the sand saying the Warriors will be exposed soon enough. What more can the Warriors do? Go 82-0?
Spurs can win with historically one of the best defense ever, stop turning the ball over so easily, LA and Diaw being able to take advantage of smaller players, and hitting a good 3 point %.
[QUOTE=midnightpulp;8487639]There's no reason this shouldn't have been a 20 point stomping (and at one point, the Spurs were looking to blow this thing wide open) The Warriors have been giving up big points on good efficiency to mediocre/ ty teams like the Mavericks, Lakers, Suns, Pelicans, etc. Yes, the Warriors didn't take those games seriously, but I don't think they just can turn on/off their defense to level that can hold the Spurs offense at home to 87 points, and I think the reason this wasn't a blowout is because of nerves and pressure on the Spurs part.
Now that they got the Warrior monkey off their back, I think they'll play much more confidently on offense in the next matchup.[/QUOTE]
I don't think the Warriors have won in San Antonio since 1997,,,what monkey are you talking about, Mid?,,,,
Oh sure. The Warriors are better than the Spurs. They'll have to play at least an A- series to have a chance against these guys.
That's the point of this thread..you can't put them away, it's terrifying..
Spurs players and coaches could have been in awe of what gs is doing and then they destroyed them last game
Everybody knows this. You're just stating the obvious tbh.
GS is in danger of running into fatigue/injuries, especially deep in the playoffs. From here on out GS has to go all in to break the Bulls' record and go onto win the 'ship. Tired legs will also have an impact on their 3pt shooters, it could ultimately lead to their demise against a very well rested Spurs team just starting to peak.
That's not true, at all
There are still a lot of posters here that are still in denial about both Curry as an individual and the Warriors as a team..
After the 30 point thrashing at GS (in which Curry dropped 37 in 28 minutes), and considering how the Spurs typically have problems with athletic, high scoring back courts (Lillard and McCollum just combined for 50), I had no reason to believe otherwise. Also, Klay really isn't the main part in that equation. Curry showed in the first matchup he's capable of scoring at a 50 ppg pace against us. He's obviously not going to average 50 over a playoff series, but he's more than capable of averaging 30-35, with Klay pitching in 20-25.
Furthermore, I didn't say they would average 70, just that they are capable of scoring that in any given game, and two players who are capable of scoring those points is tough obstacle to overcome.
This game has renewed my confidence somewhat, but I still worry about our comparative lack of firepower. Like I said in another post, I hope it was just nerves that prevented the Spurs from beating down these s by 20.
Then go put your life savings on the Warriors in Vegas if its so obvious... you wont you pussy cuck, sit the down![]()
62-7 well I guess
I read a post of yours earlier suggesting Curry may struggle to get to 20 on occasion vs the Spurs. I appreciated the sentiment, but thought you were slightly optimistic. Mah nig.
Not sure why people think that Warriors D has nothing to do with Spurs turnovers...42 TOs in two games against them
Put all your money on the Spurs, tough guy,,,I bet you wont princess,,,
Well, until a series happens between them, you can't really say they are better. All we know is that tonight didn't prove and that both teams can play better.
The Movin screen is dead. McAdoo & Barnes get a couple of slashes each that Iggy would have got in any event and yer maybe Iggy helps on D more, but play Bogut more at their peril. Kawhi got robbed and did well to stay so professional. Ffs Delavedova man handled Curry well & he only had his role playing mate LeBrian to help. We got the team and we're coming.
Mid continues to hold's. If you needed this game to understand the basics of basketball you are a ing .

I already bet $250 on them a few months back when I was in Vegas, jokes on you got
Look at curry stats against Spurs
Spurs do the best on him
Sure you did, princess,,,,
Terrifying is a bit strong. They are very good, tho
It's important to note that we were pretty much playing against their small ball of death (or whatever it's called) and held them under 80. Iggy helps them to improve their versatility on O and D but it is impressive none-the-less that we held such an explosive lineup to such a low score. We still need to see our full line up vs theirs so not to much we can draw for this game.
Well Im supporting my team and you arent giving us a shot, go get your golden state gear on got
