Warriors: vs Thunder - 2016 Playoffs - Western Final Series Thread

[DAF86]

Dion Waiters has transformed into 2012 James Harden.

Why is it so hard for you too admit being wrong about something? You're on DMC level, tbh.

[RD2191]

Dray trying to talk his way out of a suspension. ing pussy just own up to it. Hate dirty players who try to spin their dirty tactics.

[DAF86]

Rick Fox on the edge of tearing up for Green to don't get suspended.

I don't know how can anyone look at that and say it isn't on porpuse.

Bruh, they are NOTHING like the team they were in the regular season & you mentioned NOTHING of Dion Waiters or their defense.

You threw a dart & are now trying to act like you saw ALL THIS coming when you predicted the Spurs would win in 7.

You might as well claim you saw the 2011 Mavs winning it all at this point.

Of course I didn't predict OKC playing at the level they are playing. Nobody did. I did know they were dangerous, and they were a far tougher matchup than the ing Los Angeles Clippers. Unlike most people here, who thought they were Portland Trailblazers level.

Nice call, scro...

Dubs did come back from 13 down to take the lead, but holy this OKC team is locked in. They're legitimately starting to look like a team of destiny.

...but didn't win by 20, I agree, Metheads look like they can definetly take out this team with their overrated cute little regular season record.

[Spurs9]

Alphabrook just said he thought it was intentional. 'You cant just kicking people in their private parts'

[lefty20]

As I've said before, Dray is one bad day away from becoming Artest. Dubs keep enabling his mental issues instead of telling him to grow the up.

The were doomed after that Draymond Green kick to the groin. That was not a basketball play and was dirty. The Warriors are playing into Donovans hands. Golden state is playing a forced high pace in which they're not taking the right shots and making enough passes. When you play a halfcourt game, you slow down OKC's impulse drives. Most of all, Golden State is not playing consistently between games. They're coasting with a belief that they'll comeback but not performing; excessive pride in their capabilities. Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, and Stephen Curry's mindsets are too y right now. There's too much hubris in this series just like there was in the Spurs/Thunder series. You can't afford to coast throughout the game against this team or game to game against OKC. The Thunder are taking advantage of that.


Thunder are looking like Cleveland/Miami right now.

They're most of all........first to the ball, making shots on first attempts denying defensive rebounds. These are things that champions do which is what I mention before earlier this week. That's exactly what Golden State isn't doing. The only thing that I can't respect about the Thunder is that they get an alarming amount of illegitimate fouls or calls that results in points and possessions in their favor just like Cleveland and Miami did. I have never respect that brand of basketball nor will I ever.

I respect Billy Donovan's approach however. He's a rookie coach out of florida that got his team to the Western conference finals and is two games away from the finals. He's currently out coached Carlisle(poor supporting cast), Popovich (2nd best team in the NBA), and is currently doing in Kerr(best team in the nba). Billy Donovan took the right timeouts and got okc in the right mentality to finish the second half. They stood pat and extended the lead enforcing their will to win.

I believe Kerr is currently being y himself not obliging to call the right timeouts early in games. Kerr needed to get the team situated in order to control the pace and enforce their will. There's too much hubris that I don't believe they respect OKC's capability enough. Its just like the finals.

This is a rattling game for the Warriors and an uplifting game for the Thunder who have gone under the radar too long. The Warriors fans wanted to win more than the team did and that's why they left early after the game one. Too much foolishness during the course of the game. No ideal focus to win the game but mess around with the opponent.

The Warriors got their ass beat; no lie and the officials didn't play a major role after the first quarter. That was all the warriors.

The Warriors are finally playing a healthy contender and look what is happening. They are still unproven in the postseason until they can beat an elite squad at full-health. Regular season bull doesn't change that.

[spursistan]

If Raymond isn't suspended, there's some fishy going on.

I in give up on the league if they allow this to go unpunished..

[DMC]

Thread = right about AlphaBrook
DMC = wrong about AlphaBrook

Any questions?

He'll have one of those then he'll the bed and roll around it it. You'll see.

[UZER]

As I've said before, Dray is one bad day away from becoming Artest. Dubs keep enabling his mental issues instead of telling him to grow the up.

The league has also enabled it by letting him get away with tons of every game on calls / no calls, but also his constant overreacting and berated officials and never getting T'd up for it just because he plays for the Warriors.

[DAF86]

That's not the best angle. The best one is the one where you can see Dirtmond clearly targetting Adams'nuts with his eyes.

[RD2191]

The ball was already out of his hands completely when he made that move. Clearly it was intentional.

When did the league relax the dress code for interviews and sideline street clothes? Used to be guys had to wear a jacket and button up, now they show up again in the AI garb that Stern outlawed. I've noticed the regression over time, and I guessed it wasn't being enforced.

[hitmanyr2k]

Even if the league doesn't suspend Green that may work against GS. OKC will use that as motivation to come out in Game 4 just as hard as Game 3 and most likely not have a let down.

[lefty]

Gaymond thinking he's Rodman, trying to get in guys heads, GTFO mouthbreathing fake got pussy.

My negga

[baseline bum]

I like Draymond Green but there is no ing way he should be playing Game 4, that was plain as day a kick. Props to Adams for coming in and nailing those two free throws after that cheapshot.

[HankChinaski]

I missed the game but from what I have read here and online elsewhere Green thought it was open season of scrote squad

your Bulls'96 GOAT status is getting safer with every Warriors L from here on out

OKC pulling off this miracle = Harlem's gonna be a happy man, because LBJ is ringing

If they can't handle Biyambo then how are they going to handle Adams?

Most likely whoever wins the JR Smith/Dion Waiter matchup would determine the chip.
