    Draymond Green - "That crowd (in Portland) was amazing" "I gained a lot of respect for those guys (Blazers)"

    Green also named our players by name, Dame, CJ, Crabbe, Aminu and Harkless....

    Yes, you do have to play all 4 quarters, but you only won the last 2 games by a couple of points. They game could have easily swung the other way. Think about how little it would have taken to be going back to Portland with us up 3-2. To act like it wasn't close makes you look stupid. But hey, you probably are.

    Why would anybody want to watch Klay transmit his super-herpes to some poor girl? Exploitation man.

    Yeah I suppose. I mean, I don't really like Green, but nothing he said before this really irked me anyways. What was he supposed to say?

    Personally I would like my players to say the same thing.

    It's just a sudden change of attitude in the interviews. I expected him to continue doubling down on being an ass.

    Usually when you score 120 points in four quarters you are almost guaranteed to win the game. Sadly that was not the case tonight. Great effort tonight and really proud of this team this season. One of the most enjoyable seasons I've seen.

    Hopefully we can add a Horford and resign Crabbe and Harkless. Excited to see the progress CJ and Dame make next season as there is still room for growth.

    Still not a fan, but at least he had respect in his postgame press conference.

    You just can't deny the best team won that series for sure. What a great team they have.

    Henderson is an undependable shooting one on one Kobe wannabe. I like him ok, he's crazy athletic, but I never thought he really fit in. I'm sure he would have liked more consistent minutes and a bigger role. Unless he really likes it here I think it unlikely he returns.

    Forced PR garbage. His media secretary probably posted it.

    He got to play for a special team in a special year, and that'll earn him a better paycheck somewhere. A good experience for all.

    "I don't believe it."
    "No seriously Dray, both teams played hard."

    Not sure. I don't like Green but he doesn't care much what you think about him, hence the comments from the games before. I reckon he truly likes the current Blazers team, only waited until the end of series to actually praise them.

    I want to believe that; it came off really poorly but maybe he wanted to rile us up because we were giving them the most fun challenge. He's still a jerk but I'm glad he motivated the team a bit to play harder.

    Were the many shots of Sonya and her sidepiece + Dell necessary?

    Why don't they show Dame's mom and entire family?
