    Warriors are 8 three pointers away from the single game record.

    They move the ball and people so well eventually your defense breaks down. Its like playing chess and always having to choose between sacrificing your queen or king.

    We can still win. We just need to really be aggressive and pyshical defensively. Coming back from down 20 happens so much these days.

    I get the feeling he's gonna force it and just lay an egg that will probably cost us the Orlando game too.

    Well we can still win if they shot 10% from 3 for the rest of the game and we shoot 60%.

    When they score 80 a half they could have 5 James Harden's guarding us and it wouldn't matter.

    The way they've been hitting them, they'll get that by the end of the 3rd.

    God I hope that doesn't happen.

    I coudl care less if they get it or not, I want to see us come out and show some fight. Were getting run over, lets try and ramp up the energy and give them a bloody lip before we get knocked out.

    If he rattles off a 10-0 run early, then it's okay. But if Stotts has the starters out there and we're still down 20+ in the 4th... that'd be on Stotts, not Lillard. (Hopefully we aren't down by that much.)

    I'll say something M and M used to say all the time during Roy's first two years. If we can get it to single digits by the 3rd we have a shot.

    I'm not sure what adjustment Stotts could make to beat this team...what's your opinion?

    How many times do you see a team with 61 points in the first half and still be down by 20?

    These aren't ordinary circumstances. They are shooting lights out and getting every benefit of the whistle. The Warriors are demonstrably superior when playing well. It's a question of energy and spiritual depletion.

    Ok lets see if we can get close early in the third. If not yank the starters and think about Orlando. It's fine to lose tonight but don't want to wear guys out trying to make a blowout respectable then lose tomorrow to the Magic.

    Enjoy the game....otherwise, what's the point? We could come out and win the second half, lose the game still and make it respectable..time for guys to step up and fans to cheer...if it makes folks so f'ing miserable...why watch?
