NBA: Thursday game thread

[KaiRMD1]

This is a team that will never get past the second round

[~O~]

I'm convinced Doc Rivers is low key one of the worst coaches ever to win a championship

[urunobili]

Let's hoe thy rack a lot more wins so that Toms job is safe...

Clippers are the most mentally soft team in the league.

Look absolutely defeated and game is not even over yet

Pathetic team. Can't believe we lost to these chokers.

Again, the 2014-15 Spurs would have gotten smoked by the Warriors even if they got past the Clippers.

[SpursFan86]

The Clippers melt down like this regularly; Dubs didn't do anything particularly special to cause this.

Clippers are choke artists, sure, but the Warriors still turned it up in the 4th. They shot 70+%

[Killakobe81]

Steph holding right now... the regular season mvp, the le belt best PG and now best closer since MJ belt ...

All depended on Splitter's health. If he got his vagina together I really think they take it in 6.

who knows though, Enrique would've sunk the ship if he got in the way

The Clippers play zero defense and were playing the likes of Jamal Crawford and the corpse of Paul Pierce for most of it. This Clips team is most likely worse than last year.

[Killakobe81]

Da Clips tears will be especially salty and tasty. Clips have had 3 key matchups so far this sesson these two Dubs games and the mavs game at dallas 0 for 3 plus ghey lost at home to the McHale led Rox ...

[Spurtacular]

Warriors have played very losable basketball for the last five or six games. If the Spurs stay strong, they're gonna pass them when the inevitable losses start to flow.

[hitmanyr2k]

Looks like the Bulls are going to have to end another streak

Come on now. Give some credit to the Worriers. Don't be a hater

[midnightpulp]

The strategy against Golden State might to just let Curry score 60 and focus attention on everyone else. When Curry is there on the perimeter, doing his dribbling thing, it sends opponents scrambling to check him and leads to easy buckets for Warrior role players.

[Red Hawk #21]

I can't wait for this clown to blame the refs for this loss.

[Red Hawk #21]

Dudes really blew a 23 point lead

Agreed. Guard Curry one-on-one, don't sag off him, and try to force him to make tough shots. He'll get tired eventually and so far when the Dubs have played good defenses/don't force turnovers they really struggle to score with him out.

a lot of us were calling the comeback halfway through the first quarter. The Clips give up massive leads like this regularly.

[Red Hawk #21]

Great win by the Warriors but they really have a lot to work on. Curry had some absolutely horrible turnovers tonight, my goodness.

Spurs probably can keep him to 40 and still do that ...but as many point out draymond and the other supporting playets are key ...

You are right but they have still won playing bad vs Raptors and Clips

ter re-aggravated his thigh injury against the Clippers so dude was essentially out for a good 6 wks (it also takes him a couple of weeks to get in rhythm) & Porker would have had no where to hide against the Warriors. Manu looked absolutely done, plus Diaw also looked exhausted & couldn't hit any shots from the perimeter.
