    Anytime you beat a team with one guy scoring about 50pts and one 25pts, you gotta feel good

    The Warriors have such a crazy backcourt. If they make it out of the first round, it will be because those two guys shot them out of it.

    Stotts said he didn't get across to the players well enough to take the foul at the end of regulation when Green hit that three. You'd think the players wouldn't need screaming from their coach to do this. This game was the first time all season when I felt our inexperience.

    Too bad Mark Jackson and his squad are dumber.

    However, nental mistakes from both teams were the reason we had such a great game, so I can't complain too much.

    By the way, we're now 8-2 in our last 10. A good ramp to the playoffs.

    WOW!!! For my only game of the season that I'll see live, THAT was NUTS!!! It's the best game I can remember in the last 2-3 years. The 4th quarter and OT was just bedlam. It would be loud for 24 seconds, then 20,000 collective groans as curry does what he did all night. That OT was just stupid. Shot after shot after shot. It's definitely the biggest rollercoaster I can remember. I was sitting a row in front of some GSW fans (There must have been 1,000 of them there... they were everywhere!) And we were trading WHOO'S! seemingly every play. They were from Oakland, so I can understand why they were cheering for them. After that Green 3 to tie it, I just turned around and went "Seriously? What the hell else can happen? Curry is probably getting 50." And then he almost does! GSW does have some really respectful fans.

    Some notes -

    -I got early admission into the arena to watch some practice. GOOD lord is Lopez tall and built! Dame hit about 20 three's in a row. LMA's jump shot... he barely gets off the floor. I didn't know that.

    - For pretty much the entire game, there was a bat/bird flying around the arena.

    -I want to reiterate, and hope it came over the broadcast. That place was NUTS! There was two times where I just simply couldn't hear anything but a steady stream of cheering. There were several times where it went from "YES!!!!!!!!!!!" To "OH MY gosh!!!" with hands over the head. I don't remember a game like that in a long time.

    - It was a playoff atmosphere through and through.

    - I hate the Moda center. It felt very... I don't know... "Idiocracy".. "Hello, welcome to Walmart." Everything seemed so contrived and "by the book".

    - Regardless, game of the year, bar none. What a win!!!!!

    Ot: but I just followed you on twitter and saw one of your tweets to my homie I used to ball with back in school. He's the owner of cultural blends. I will say everywhere I go wearing my 1977 SnapBack I get 10 people who wanna know where I got it. Dude is a die hard blazer fan since he was born.

    Great game to be at, but I'm not thrilled about the empty seats.
