    Terry Stotts - "Well I don't know where to start...its an understatement..." No shit!

    Kerr " ...he looked like Steph Curry out there" looked like Damian Lillard to me

    Best quote for me was during the broadcast. Rice said Bogut was yelling at Stotts to pull his starters.

    "Mama, come get these Blazers off my ass!"

    Unless it just doesn't keep time right but still moves. Lets say it loses 5 mins a day. It might be right once a year or so?

    It's like Klay felt they didn't play well. Look at the numbers. Both Klay and Curry played the game and got theirs.

    I've said it all season, the Warriors need to be punched in the mouth. Yesterday night they were and they didn't know how to respond. They are mentally weak, they had the easiest path to the finals victory last season (beat up Pelicans, Conley (CJ smash!) and Allen were hurt for the Grizzlies, the Rockets were trash, and the Cavs had no Irving or Love). They haven't had to deal with true adversity yet.

    I agree. Blazers were more physical and just plain tougher on defense last night. The Warriors are very very good but they can be beat.

    I'll give you that. I remember you saying this exact sentiment in a reply to me about the warriors.

    I think it was more that we didnt play to their half court defense than anything.

    Although OUR defense was superb.

    The next time they play there will be more Bogut and a lot more physical play. They won't just try to out score Portland.

    Yup. I definitely like the Warriors a lot less after last night. They were about to enter Clipper territory with their whining.

    The Warriors are far from mentally weak. They're the best team in the NBA. That's what made our win last night so sweet. For the last 1 and half seasons the Warriors have been playing the best ball in the NBA.

    Exactly. And it will be really interesting to see how we match up with that. I think Leonard will get some run; piss off Bogut, maybe take a couple of elbows, pull him out of the paint.

    And the Blazers won't be able to take them by surprise. The Warriors will come back hard next time. I don't see another 30 point blow out happening but I'm going to enjoy this win for a long time.

    That is what he is good at. People are tough on Leonard but he has been a very big part of the teams resurgence. he was hurt for a while and it affected his game for about 20 games. the last 15 or so he has been back at it and his shot is falling. Not to mention he has played tough against a few very skilled big men.

    They're the best team, yes. But just because you're the best doesn't mean you can't be mentally weak. I mean a hurt Conley+Allen and Delly got into Curry's head last playoffs. The blueprint to beating them is out psychical them and make Green frustrated.

    They've won every big game they've played in this season. Cavs, SA, OKC, they've beaten the teams who are looking to overtake them in the playoffs. If you show them the respect they've earned you realize just how amazing our win was last night.
