    Sucked into what? This IS one of then most fun, unexpected and surprising seasons I can recall in years. An OT loss to the best team in the NBA and they've let you down?!?

    Not since the days of the Thomas-led Pistons has a team been allowed to exceed all limits of physical contact game after game without repercussion.

    We know they can shoot with amazing success off moving picks and from behind moving screens.

    We know they can disrupt and deflect offenses by bumping, grabbing and tripping opponents.

    We will never know if they can win consistently in a legitimate game of basketball.

    Shawn Livingston's ejection was the worst thing that could happen to Portland. Granted Curry shot poorly until the 4th, but would he have had the minutes to warm up if Livingston had stayed in the game? Would Curry have played enough minutes in the fourth to get 10 and send it to OT?

    Why not? It's not like the fact that I would be happy if he got injured again has any influence on his getting injured. I've never understood how it's "classless". It's not like I'm wishing he dies or anything. Everyone always overreacts to people wishing someone would get injured.

    Some guy here (I don't remember if you were part of it or not) acted like the Blazers should have fouled curry hard with the sole purpose of trying to injure him again. That's fucked up.

    Oh yeah that's a little different I think. I don't advocate for the players trying to injure him, but I did say I hope he blows his knee out.

    If Curry had stayed injured, we would have disillusioned the league that Klay Thompson is a great shooter, that other Warrior players are so good, that Draymond Green can stay out of foul trouble, that Kerr is Coach of the Year, etc.

    It would be good for Curry to stay injured so that all NBA fans can discover the truth. It's a flim-flam team, flimsy cotton candy with him as the stick holding the gooey mess together.

    Great game! Had me on the edge for 3 hours. I wish it could've turned out differently, but what can you do?
