    When did Klay say it was a fluke? And used that exact word? I don't remember him saying that in any post game quotes....

    Oh, I see it. I don't see that he means we were a fluke, but that how bad they played was a fluke.

    "We were out to prove a point that last night was a fluke."

    Spin it anyway you like, but either way, it's disrespectful and condescending. Either it was a fluke GSW played so poorly or a fluke that Portland played so well.

    And when you listen to Klay's postgame interview after the loss as well, you can clearly the condescending tell the attitude he has towards the Blazers:

    Yeah, Klay seems like a bit of a douche. Curry and Kerr are class acts though. Even in that video, Curry is taking about how what Dame did is more than just a good night, and how much talent we have, and how the all star break was not an excuse.

    One of the guys on Talkin' Ball afterwards mentioned that none of the GSW players congratulated the Blazers after the win but Steph. I've always perceived them as a pretty classy bunch and that really surprised me.

    when our all time record vs. the warriors is 121 wins / 95 losses.

    how is us winning a 'fluke'. as much of a fluke as him beating Curry in the 3pt comp? less? more?

    Why can't it just be that the Blazers played really well and used a different strategy against GSW?

    Has your team ever won a championship before? You and Warriors fans make it seem like you should go 82-0. Being the best team only means you are favored in every matchup, then there's the whole actually playing the game thing.

    Let them get even more full of themselves it'll make their failures epic entertainment.

    People are saying Draymond is the best center in the league; superior to Anthony Davis. It's gotten ludicrous.

    Probably, but I don't care that much, because I'm almost sure I'm right.

    Mychel should withhold Klay's allowance for that.

    Either he's saying we couldn't have scored so much if GS had played harder on defense, or he's saying our defense couldn't have confounded them if GS had played harder on offense.

    Fuck him. His team got steamrolled by a better team.
