    Commentators kept wondering why Dame didn't just play 1v1 and beat his man off the dribble, but it's hard when they're shading two in the paint and you have shaky shooters all over the floor.

    I am expecting a extension for Stotts from olshey. But do I think he needs to leave with his generic offensive and defensive my answer is yes.

    We choked 3 games we should have won.

    Those were winnable, Blazers did not come to win though. We had better bigs and deeper bench and Curry and Dray just killed us.

    Between Aminu/Harkless/Turner/Hood.

    97 minutes
    16 points
    7-24 FG's
    1-8 from '3'
    14 rebounds (Turner had half)
    7 assists
    3 turnovers
    ....1 made FT.

    That is disastrously poor production.

    I know Aminu clock out after OKC series and Harkless had up and down on offensive but clock after the OKC series on defense. Turner majority time just plays dumb I questioning his baskeball I.Q. CJ can shoot in a game or shoot you out of a game I questions him being a team player. These 4 guys I wouldn't mind them being on another team. I know know way olshey going trade CJ but other 3 needs to be gone.

    It’s like Warriors only switched on in this series after they had gone down by 17. Remarkable how we managed to go up by 17 in third quarter three times in a row yet won none of these games.

    We are still headed in the right direction and this has been a super positive season.

    Didn't realize until this morning: we got out-rebounded by 18. I guess that was one of the drawbacks of playing Leonard so much, or maybe having to bench Aminu and Harkless cuz their offense was so bad.

    Meyers had 12 rebounds so that wouldn't seem to be so much the issue. Going so small for much of the game would seem to be a bigger issue.

    Meyers was NOT the reason we got out-rebounded. He did really well boxing out and getting the rebounds he was supposed to.

    The main culprits were Zach and our guards.

    Donkey: Hey Meyers, looks like you want to do a screen. It'd be a shame if someone were to...make a dirty play on you right now....

    It was hilarious when Green got called for a moving screen that one time in the game.

    It was actually one of the cleanest screens GS have done in the series. The refs just decided to call ONE random screen, for good measures.:biglaugh:

    Thank god i don't need to see this excuse for basketball one more time, i hope they will lose in the finals. Anything is better then this fake legends shit.
