    Mavs basically conceding the game. Can't blame them.

    Unless we shock the world, just need the Hawks/Dubs to help us keep pace.

    lol, maybe this will be the new trend: rest your players when playing at GSW, like a free day off.

    The Mavs also barely eeked out a win over the Lakers last night, so they're probably tired. Why not concede to the Warriors?

    At this point, ESPN/abc, TNT, NBAtv should take off all games involving golden state at home. It will be a blowout and or the other team will rest players because they know it is a lost cause.

    GS offense is on a all time great level with their skillsets, passing, team chemistry, shooting etc.

    Very few games are actually interesting heading into the 4th quarter, the Pacers actually were in "striking distance" at that period of the game.

    Curry looking like absolute ****, but no one will mention it cuz it's not Harden.

    Box and 1 and a 3-2 zone have had some success against the Warriors. Of course there is nothing you can do if they make bombs from distance...but a balance/ mix of zones and man can be an effective attempt at slowing down this monster. Hope good coaches are keeping a watch...

    And that's what is scary...if Curry is hot...and their team is hot...It usually is a 30 point beat down in progress. They are that good.

    But if Harden plays like a$$, the Rockets are more than likely being blown out.
