    I agree. The way he plays last night is dangerous to others.

    If both sweep, The 2nd round starts at April 28

    Curry ’s almost back.(warriors website)

    Pels have no chance against the Warriors. I just don’t see any angle where they win the series. Dray should be able to give some trouble to AD, not in contesting shots but physically wearing him. I don’t see anyone guarding KD as well. Rondo and Jrue could shut down Klay though.

    Warriors in 6 games max.

    Pretty much this.

    NBA playoffs are almost entirely about matchups. Golden State, obviously, isn't a good matchup for anyone, but even though NOP has looked fantastic so far, it is hard to imagine them matching up even half as well against GSW. As much as I don't like Draymond, he is a good defender to go against Davis. And the Pelicans don't have any wing defender to go up against Durant

    Pelicans can beat Warriors without Curry.

    April 7, Pelicans starters score 114 points, The rest of Warriors are healthy excluding Curry and Livingston.

    There is no way Warriors can stop these guys.

    That’s a bold statement. Wishful thinking.

    Without Curry, Pelicans just need to play offense.

    With Curry, Warriors force Pelicans to concentrate on defense.

    Poop will show up through some secret arena tunnel in Game 4 and whisper this into Patty's ear.

    When did anyone start giving a damn what Nick Wright thinks? Warriors aren't scared of no damn Pelicans. C'mon.

    He’s went from being a total idiot with ridiculous takes to actually making sense.... it’s the weirdest thing. All in about the last couple of months...

    I have no idea what happened but it’s like someone gave him a brain.
