    I actually thought his response was fine. Very measured and as respectful as any answer he could have come up with.
    The problem i have is with the FUCKING QUESTION in the first place. Who asks a question like that unless they are trying to set up a crappy answer. Of course he is going to be confident at this point in his teams prospects. The Blazers would now need to win 3 straight and 2 of them in Oakland to win this series.

    Man, I got like 4 hours of sleep and am feeling like I just got punched in the gut about a 100 times.

    Toughest loss I've been a part of since 00.

    Excuse the language if anyone is offended but Green is an arrogant prick and the most disrespectful asshole in the league.

    I can't believe I am even uttering these words, but I would rather see Lebron or Westbrook and Durant win a ring before I ever want that punk ass bitch to win another one

    this is what I noticed as well
    the warriors really cant stand struggling to win a game
    they tossed the wrong guy out of the game last night, after his first tech when he charged the ref and screamed in his face following a foul call I was sure he was gone, but nope, gotta pander to the champs.

    sorry if this has been touched on but I'm not willing to read through the entire thread, but did anyone else see him intentionally shoulder cj when they were walking to their respective benches for a time out? the fuck was that? cj turned around and then spieghts went and acted like some tough guy and gave him the back handed shew fly don't bother me gesture multiple times.

    I will become the number one fan of the first player who decides they are tired of Green's antics and tries to deck him. They don't even have to connect just the simple gesture would be enough. I just want to see someone wipe that smug smile off that entitled Donkey looking mother fuckers face

    I swear CJ has some fire in him. I love the death stare and small trashtalk. The kid stands up in the face of anybody

    When he gets his fur up, he reminds me of Steve Rogers at the beginning of Captain America: "I can do this all day"

    Oh stop with the self pity. If you got sucked into anything, you got sucked into a lie YOU created because nobody on the team was trying to fool you.

    Barnes coming off the bench and hitting the tying 3 pointer with about a minute left was huge for them. He misses that and I think we win. The Blazers by that time looked drained. They played so hard all game long, but in the end the Warriors were too deep.....and good.

    Well I woke up at 4:30 to catch the game and barely slept 4 hours due to time difference. This series is actually draining me because only Game 1 was at a reasonable time for a Polish viewer, and all 6 games of Clippers series were deep into the night.

    + Curry was getting in a rhythm in the fourth. A historical fucking performance.

    Foster did us no favors by tossing Livingston! I don't think Curry gets the rhythm if he doesn't play So many minutes.

    I find it to be a disgrace to the game of basketball, that players/teams who have won championships in recent years have become egotistical asshole babies, who have lost sight of what the game really means, what an honor it is to play let alone win...

    The Warriors are not true champions

    I don't think it was on purpose even though Foster is completely corrupt. Livingston called him some dirty words and deserved to get tossed.
