    We can talk about getting a “third star” or whatever but what we really need are some junkyard dogs that get dirty.

    We need a shooting guard that passes the ball.

    When you double like we did this game the off defense has to drop towards the basket and we didn't do that. It like playing 1-3-1 defense when the opposite defender drop towards the basket opposite side.

    IF ONLY the Blazers worked on this scheme during the regular season then theyd know how to rotate on the fucking backside. But no. We have to run the same rigid system for 82 games and then when we need to run something else, we arent ready to run it for a full game. COOL.

    Yep. He may be out the whole series based on no real court time at all.

    I wouldn't invite a Warriors fan over to my house to watch the game; it's stressful enough already. I don't think this guy should be in our house here.

    Because they've been eliminated by basically this same team like 3 times already and we still play like it's the first time.

    Dame isn’t disappearing man. He isn’t getting open looks. They’re trapping him. They’re forcing anyone else to beat them. They are showing how to beat the trap and we can’t do it.

    Seth had the hot hand so the shots should have been going to him.

    The last foul called on GS came with 7.21 left on the clock, we committed 5 fouls in that final 7.21.
    CJ missed his last 5 shots as well.
    This was the game to steal and we couldn’t do it.

    Steph is totally outclassing Dame.

    And it's not even close.

    Not a bad thing....but at some point, actually learn from it. They completely panicked in the 3rd. Looked like a 1st year playoff team. Played so well in the 1st but didn't continue to bring it. Acted like they thought the game was won at halftime.

    And CJ STILL hasn't learned to hit a wide open teammate who is having a good game.

    Good offense. Just missed on a few shots.
