You rushed the floor for Jordan when he rang in your building. I spit on you.
lmao its obvious Dray doesnt respect the Spurs for some reason
I dont think Klay does either
Coach Kerr admires the Spurs and shows them a lot of respect but it doesnt appear that any of our players fear them or respect them as an equal
Ethan Strauss said on twitter that the Dubs players dont view the Spurs as a threat, which I cant really disagree with after they barely beat us at home without 3 rotation players and on the 6th game in 9 days

They are defending champs until they aren't, tbh.
What we see as arrogance or baggery, their fans probably see as confidence or swagger. I don't really care, tbh.
And only steph. Those 2-3 deep 3's a game won't get you a W
steph curry can knock down deep threes better than anyone in the history of the league.
I'm not entirely sure about that. Those things give his teammates a of a lot of extra energy. Making teammates better in any way goes forth into winning a game.
he wouldn't. you move the three point line back, three point attempts would go down for every team. he wouldn't have to make up for teammates because other teams couldn't make up for steph curry.
wow, how dense are you? wide open for a really long two pointer? the warriors would get a lay up/dunk you stupid .
^ just dumb. why would klay make it harder on himself? curry takes deeps threes because it's so easy for him.
exactly. so if only steph can make those deep threes... and you move the three point line back... then still, only curry makes those. advantage: warriors.
That right there. A grown man's answer.
If you're the defending champs, and win 70 or more games the next season? You get to be arrogant, if that's what blows your dress up. Eventually, someone will take them down, and it will be that much sweeter for that team when they do.
You move the three four feet back and have people guarding him further back and he is chucking. Right now, he's shooting when he person is at the line. If they're at a deeper line and they're conceding deep running two's at 40 percent, teams will take that. It doesn't matter if Curry is the best deep shooter ever; moving the three back would hurt him more than anyone due to the volume of threes his game is predicated upon.

i disagree entirely.
moving the three point line back hurts every team. but whichever team has steph curry has the advantage. did you even watch the video? he gets deep threes effortlessly.
done talking about this though, it's a waste of time. the nba's not moving the line.
Steph's three percent would be like late 20's percent if you really moved it deep. That's disadvantage everyone. Threes would be reserved for buzzer beaters and momentum changers. It'd be to no individual's advantage. You're completely wrong.
^ try again .The NBA 3-point line ranges from 22 feet in the corners out to 23-feet-9 inches near the top of the key, and Curry doesn’t actually seem to care where that line is.
During the 2015-16 season Curry has hit 33-of-49 field goals from between 28 feet and half court. After some quick math, that’s an insane 67.3 percent.
Shows how much you know. If it was just Curry, the Warriors would be a cute team that would get shut down by legit defenses. It's the fact that they can play with five three-point shooters at once. If that number drops down to one, then teams simply won't have to leave him any daylight.
Again, shows how much you know. The Warriors rely on dominating the three-point differential. They can't just be even with everyone else. If other teams aren't shooting threes, they're shooting twos. Compare that the Warriors relying on inefficient shots and giving up long rebounds. If they start missing more threes than everyone else, their point differential collapses.he wouldn't. you move the three point line back, three point attempts would go down for every team. he wouldn't have to make up for teammates because other teams couldn't make up for steph curry.
It's clear you don't actually watch the Warriors at this point. If teams double Curry, the pass goes to one of their bigs at the top of the key (very often Draymond. If the three-point line were farther out, that pass would go to about where the three-point line is now. If you don't know why it goes there, it's because you don't understand what a short-roll is and why and how the Warriors use it. The point is that you have Draymond open for a two-pointer at a spot to which he shoots 33 percent. No one is coming out to him at that distance. So he would either have to take that awful shot or drive into a defense that doesn't have to fear him kicking out to shooters, since Curry is the only floor-spacer left, and he's already being doubled.
This is probably your dumbest observation. As you point out later in this thread, Curry barely takes long-threes. Only six percent of his threes and three percent of his total shots come from that distance. Why do you think that is? It's because he only takes those shots when he's absolutely warmed up and WIDE OPEN. The average defender distance on a Curry attempt from 28-plus feet is about six feet. He's only shot one long three all season when a defender was within three feet of him (against the Cavs in January).^ just dumb. why would klay make it harder on himself? curry takes deeps threes because it's so easy for him.
You move the line back, and Curry can no longer be as selective in when he takes long-threes. And if he is, then his 3PApg drops down to negligible levels. If he isn't, his percentage drops while he also gives up long rebounds with him already being outnumbered on the break.
Same can be said about the opposite. He misses deep threes which can be considered bad looks if he starts missing, killing chemistry and ball movement..
Advantage any other team imo, let Currys chucking kill team chemistry.
he wouldn't. you move the three point line back, three point attempts would go down for every team. he wouldn't have to make up for teammates because other teams couldn't make up for steph curry.

Regular season results mean about nothing when Pop is one of the coaches. Ask the '14 Thunder. Not saying that the Dubs won't beat the Spurs in a series, but using the rs games between the clubs as evidence is not reliable. ESPECIALLY these next two (where the Spurs get blown out, fall well below the radar and get written off by pretty much everyone).
We were talking about 4 feet deeper. And he shoots that well from deep because the defender is back. With a deeper line, and the defender guarding higher, you'd see a significant drop. It would not be to his advantage to move the line back in spite of your re ed assertion.
I don't get it. A player can get a tech for staring/taunting after a dunk but that disgusting Oakland-ish conduct is accepted?
The Warriors have made people interested in the NBA again so they get a pass apparently. Can you imagine Stephen Jackson pulling that ?
Hasn't the Lebron hype been working?
Ok....
starting to blow up in this tool face
Karma well deserved
starting to blow up in this tool face
They're so far ahead that they've looped all the way around to the back and can't even beat the Timberwolves
