    Spurs beating the depleted Warriors helps because it creates more separation between them and Houston, which might change how the Rockets look at their game vs us. They probably don’t feel like they need every win to keep the 1 seed.

    Hopefully Houston plays all their guys, I want to beat them at full strength and put the league on notice. But acting like we have a chance at the 2 seed is dumb.

    I think that too, but dammit if Jinxspeed isn't working his voodoo magic on the Warriors at the moment. Right as he starts talking about us catching them, half their team gets injured.

    I know he's about winding up people but sometimes it just doesn't make ANY sense.

    His team isn't in danger of missing the playoffs. The gulf between 8 & 9 is 6 games. The East playoff teams are all basically locked in.

    Ben Simmons got another triple double, his ninth.

    Is he the only guard/forward in the league who is yet to attempt a serious three-pointer? He's 0-for-7 from 3-point range but all his attempts were buzzer beater tries from halfcourt or further so it doesn't really count. BTW they shouldn't count at all, it's silly way to discourage players from taking them in order not to decrease their stats.

    The Green Snake in Oakland has now gone down with injuries.
    KD must be wondering why the hell he came here!
    Well, San Francisco does have the world's best restaurants. Especially if you have money.

    I get to the point where I dislike KD more than Draymond. That's just crazy. Used to love OKC Durant. Now he's just a fake tough guy making fun of fans. Fuck off.

    Thats my point son, who cares if the “league is on notice”? The players don’t care if some writer from Philly respects them. It’s all about Ws. You think a win tonight WITHOUT Harden is less important. You’ve been watching too many movies if so.

    If they were tied with us for example for 2nd, these guys would be playing. Kerr learned this under Popovich. They’ll ne fine mid April.
