    You can tell he's really nervous. Good thing that doesn't effect defense.

    Maybe he thought it was going to be an airball?
    Or
    Maybe he's on the next level of point shaving. Figured if he gave the offensive rebound to Jerbeko that he'd score easily.

    Playing up on screens, we may have blitzed a couple, just playing overall agressive defense.

    For one, we're not sagging off as much when Klay/Curry come off the screen.

    I don't know why people say Green is overrated. I would LOVE to have him on this team.

    Thought it was a smart move by Stotts to not instantly pull him but yell @ Nards for dropping on Curry's screen.
    He then left his man on a contested Green drive and got yanked.
    Two big mistakes and low iq plays.
    Unexcuseable for a nba vet like Nards to not be locked in like that.

    But @swish3 be like. 50% guaranteed 3's!
