    This is like the Jordan Bulls. They had an extra gear on defense.

    Gee, I've never seen the previews for this movie before!

    That's why you don't get complacent with GS. Ever.

    Blazers completely lost their poise in the face of intense defense. Credit to the Warriors for their intensity

    yeah that's it. why you would expect this lineup to deliver is beyond me. Kanter is handicapped. He cannot play anymore.

    This team falls apart with pressure on them. They never have and big problem we got only 2 ball handlers and they getting trap every time down the floor.

    How does a team play so good in one half and so dumb in the 2nd half?

    Warriors are good team. Big lead gave us margin for error. Time to rebuild lead.

    Stotts doghouse. He's been aying too giod and making Stotts look dumb for playing Harkless instead of him, so Stotts has to temper that.

    This to a T. Lose composure, start clanking up bad shots, no plan whatsoever.

    I'll say this. I wish these fucking refs would let us rape and pillage in our traps like they do the Warriors. GD Ridiculous.
