    They would have found a way to screw it up.

    Clips would have beat this version of the Warriors. No Looney, KD, Klay and coming off an injury Cousins. Credit to Raps but this isn't the same Warriors team the Clips, Rox and Blazers faced earlier in the playoffs.

    Sure. Whatever makes you better haha

    Nobody is saying they’re better without them. Not even sure why you’re trying to explain that. You’re stating the obvious. But houston fans should be the last to think gs were never in this game and that they can go on their patented runs at anytime

    Kawhi and his mother count every penny. They are seeing those Canadian income taxes on the games played at home and deciding otherwise.

    curry tried to pull a harden. i guess this is how the gsw will actually perform with just one legit all star/ superstar, a bunch of aging injury prone players and one undersized power forward who plays great defense.
    sucks for them but rockets been in that situation the whole season even without the injury.

    Curry had a great game, didn't go ghost. Warriors are still favored to win the series.

    Thompson and Durant if and when they come back will unlikely be at the top of their games. Especially Durant.

    Off Topic:
    Anybody notice Kawhi has the exact same facial expressions as his former teammate Tim Duncan?

    i gotta say, curry played a hell of a game last night. hadn't watched too many gs games, but he was doing things i like seeing in an all around franchise player. still not a big fan by any means but i'll give credit where it's due. the Raptors though...now that was team ball and role players came out to play for sure.

    That's actually a myth still being perpetuated as truth.

    With three of the top seven Warriors sidelined, Toronto is clearly the better team. GS put all their eggs in the monster starting lineup basket, which mostly works great when they're healthy, but leaves very little margin for error.

    They're looking a LOT like the last LeBron Heat team right now, with Curry in the LeBron role of trying to play hero ball against a deeper, more balanced Kawhi-led team and just not getting enough help to win. KD and Klay's recoveries are going to determine the champ.

    Consider where you are - folks around here aren't inclined to give GS any benefit of the doubt.

    Curry faded hard in the 4th after being supernova through the first 3.

    It’s tiring doing it all.

    How is it possible that everyone involved with the Warriors are all terrible people in some way, shape, or form
