    This is still better than a draft pick.

    He thinks he's a 50 percent three point shooter. He can't do anything inside. His basketball IQ is so bad. Makes the worst plays on this team arguably. He's a bench player, not a starter

    Collins is praising Green's defense, but I'm mostly seeing bad offense. lol

    Portland scored 34 points in the second quarter, the most points scored by a Warriors opponent in any quarter this postseason.

    We're seeing what we need. That intel is invaluable.

    I still think I would trade CJ. If we could get Boogie, I would do it.

    He's our top scorer today on 50% FG and 40% 3FG.

    I was thinking the same thing. Missing wide open shots.

    Both Dame and CJ shot like shit from the floor, Klay Thompson played literally as well as he possibly could have, we fucked ourselves repeatedly by not securing rebounds and some silly plays on offense, only had 36 hours rest to their 4 days, we're on the road, and down 14. Meh. Could be worse I guess.

    We're gonna come out strong at the top of the third quarter. This game is winnable.

    Stop crying about the refs. We are down because we failed to locate Klay on defense the entire 1st qrtr. In the second qrtr we played better defense but we failed to secure the defensive rebound.

    Because teams don't worry about him and those percentages are amazing for him.

    And we didn't even work that hard for most of it. We were just getting easy baskets by slicing up their defensive shell and then making the extra pass to the open man once they collapsed. Then we stopped doing that for a while and threw up some shitty, rushed shots for no good reason and they turned it into a mini-run.

    On the half time show they are questioning the future of our tiny backcourt. They kind of have a point, at least where defense is concerned. And, we could use a better post player. Vonleh is probably two years away.

    I need Mike Barrett and Mike Rice to comfort me during games like this and to agree with every bad call in my head.

    Refs with some shitty calls, can't dismiss that. However it's not like this is the only game where the refs suck.

    Warriors, who led the NBA in fast break points per game this season, have outscored the Blazers 15-0 in fast break points in the first half.
