    Curry is just ridiculous, the GS/Minn game was going to go to 2 OT, but KD fouled KAT and he won it at the line for the twolves

    Ha ha. That was absolutely a foul by Durant and if he didn’t foul, Towns would’ve scored for the win.

    If we win that game, we have shot at 1 seed and Dame MVP

    Ridiculous end to GSW/Minny. But seriously, a so called championship team going overtime against a team playing for ping pong balls? Bad sign even if they won. And 0.5 seconds, couldn't manage defense? It's not like they were having to cope with Dame Lillard.

    Yeah mind boggling, boy what's wrong with GSW? M
    My guess: Boogie is toxic in one form or another, on the floor, the bench or in the locker room.

    Could be...? without Boogie, Bell probably in the rotation more just like his rookie year, instead he seems to be lashing out a little.

    I wish Minn or Sac were closer to the 8th seed.
    It's my wetdream that OKC misses the playoffs. But I'm hard pressed to find 6-7 more losses for OKC while Sac goes on a run.

    It'll be such a feel good story when they get bounced by a shorthanded Blazer team in the playoffs.

    Yeah it seems like, according to the espn article, that Bell is wearing out his welcome at GS.

    4 of those 6 are teams fighting for a playoff spot or playoff positioning right now.
    Might change with the last two games, but I don't expect any team to be a walkover.

    the confirmed story is that Bell was playing jokes on teammates and coaches as payback for all the room charges his teammates put on him as a rookie. It was a gag that Mike Brown didn't understand and didn't like....a $15 charge for a candle. The team suspended him and it cost Bell $9,500. Pretty ridiculous overreaction by the team and several of Bell's teammates tried to explain to Brown that it was a gag

    Weird overreaction for a stupid prank like that. Jeez, I don't know Brown from a hole in the wall, but how could you that infuriate you???

    I wonder what the Warriors will be fined for all of their whining about the refs last night. Even though they probably had reason to complain, the league doesn’t take kindly to public complaints, and the Warriors took it to new levels by specifically calling out a ref by name.

    Great theater for NBA fans.

    The warriors have nothing to whine about though. the foul on KD was on the floor, Im actually surprised they called it that way. However after that Curry shouldve been T’d up for trying to show up the ref he pointed at the dude the whole way down the floor after he made his shot. How isnt that a technical??? Then on the other end KD fouled KAT they can whine about it if they want too, but none of the calls were that bad.
