    This is the only positive thing I can like right now.

    But man. What a choke job. I'm embarrassed.

    Just dumbfounded on this lost. There should be no excuses on not coming up with a win. This was the easiest game next to G1. There was no wanting this game in the 4th, looked like they lost all the energy after keep them to 15 in the 3rd.

    On the bright side the exact same thing happened to is game 5 for them that happened last year to us...cp3/Durant goes down game 5....home team won...warriors won 6 n 7...

    We can do the same thing they did last year....

    Whatever happened to CP3 being a master point guard that elevates others' game? I mean, if he can't hit shots, he can't hit shots, but for him to not at least get the ball to Harden at all?

    WCSF Game 6 at home after losing game 5 with the opposite team best player (likely) not playing G6. Sound familiar?

    I agree CP3 sucks but at least he was trying. Harden is supposed to be the MVP and he just stood at 33 feet from the basket and watched in the entire fourth quarter.

    This one hurts. I thought once Durant went out, we were gonna go for the jugular. Pathetic...

    I think that was a loose ball foul in the end. Would have been 102-101 instead of 104-99.

    Harden should've attacked the basket at the end since they were over the limit. Dont blame it on him, mda should've ****ed said something but ofcourse he didnt.

    Championship teams don't blow opportunities like this. They played with ZERO energy.

    I can't want it more than the team and still support them.

    Was unstoppable this game. It makes no sense, especially after his game 4 performance.
