    The Warriors have not been playing well lately....BUT.....they are still the defending champs, they were still at home, and the Blazers still eked out the win. I think I will just embrace that and worry about the rest of the season tomorrow.

    True. But the Blazers missed a crap load of open looks as well. Evens out. It was like there was a lid on our hoop.

    Our shooting numbers were roughly the same..they had 36 assists, we had 20

    But I'll take the win

    Yeah, and after a couple of earlier bad plays just before that I was yelling at the screen for Stotts to pull him and put in Curry. I guess there are a lot of good reasons why I’m not an NBA coach.

    I haven’t read the thread.

    There’s nothing to read.

    That’s a good win, period. No other way to put it sorry.

    It’s more likely he calls him out for turnovers. It’s hilarious how he treats Nurk compared to CJ.

    I agree, but it doesn’t quite have the same ring to it when the crowd chants it.

    And 1000 bricks in Regulation, let's not forget that. He did what he was supposed to do as a Max Player

    Most ugliest offense game I seen in along by two teams. Now tonight our defense was very good that lead us to victory. Nurk was beasting tonight. The question can we play that type the rest of the way.

    What I loved about Nurk is he knew he had mismatches, but still managed to stay patient. Never panicked, even when the warriors started sending doubles.

    well, that one had everything.

    also in no version of the universe ever should evan turnover be bringing the ball up - he's fuckin horrible.

    shout out to some great D from Harkless when it really mattered.

    ie getting in stephs shit on the inbounds in OT forcing the turnover, and then playing tight on Durant and not fouling on the last shot.

    Nurk had a great night against a small front court who can't make him pay on the other end.

    Nice to see Stotts and the players hammer away at a mismatch for a change though.

    Harkless was huge. I say get him more involved offensively. Throw it down to him in the post. Less fadeaway 18 footers, more Moe and Nurk down low.
