did they show the replay on the jumpball that they missed? i swear wiggs had shroeder? tied up and ref just staring at the play and then rewarded lakers with the timeout
Bron called the timeout before and he was probably verbally screaming timeout as soon as Dennis caught the ball.

warriors were playing with their meats 
and flipped the switch too late
needed to adjust to the hot whistle and not even contest hard on shooters

If you’re referring to the maneuver where they get a defender riding their back and then initiate contact, Reaves is fairly proficient at that as well.

Nah I'm talking about the rip-throughs.
But ya the Laker guards are good at putting defenders on their backside when dribbling towards the basket.

I bet whoever wins Game 2 will have more points in the paint than their opponent.
Now if the Lakers have a game where they're shooting hot from long range, then it would really be over for the Warriors.
Lakers are built to play any brand of basketball - score from deep, score from mid range, score from the low post, score in transition, defend with the best of em, defend and score in the paint (although we wish LAL would play their bench bigs a lot more), etc etc.
The Warriors on the other hand? Completely one dimensional.
GSW in trouble if they can't find ways to manufacture points other than from three point land.

I keep hearing that the Warriors adjustment is going to be putting curry on more On ball pick & roll stuff, When Vando is better at that then chasing screens. I know ya'll think curry has some unlimited amount of energy but that man is 35 years old with a lot of miles on him as well, having him go James harden offense With Bron & AD waiting in the paint is asking A LOT

That’s interesting because Larry David’s genius is all over SeinfeldBest thing about the pandemic was going through The Office and Curb for the first time. I tried to do the same with Seinfeld, but couldn't make it through.

From what I read, Seinfeld starts off slow. I just got impatient and never picked it back up.That’s interesting because Larry David’s genius is all over Seinfeld

Just because it’s their adjustment doesn’t mean that it’s fool proof
. Only so many things they can do.

Felt like Reaves had 2 of those plays last night but refs weren’t calling it.
It was funny seeing Draymond get one these calls last night then Dennis comes down and does the same thing. No whistle.

Definitely true. The humor/jokes in Seasons 1 and 2 are more subtle, low key. The characters get broader more exaggerated over time (except maybe Jerry) in a good way. Then they add some other regular characters, and/or re-casted others like George's dad that improve the show as well. Hits its stride around season 4 I'd say.

Seinfeld is the GOAT sitcom but I’ll admit it’s gotten more difficult to rewatch in comparison to modern shows. Not Seinfeld’s fault tho. It’s just got some of that 80’s/90’s corniness.

I’m not seeing enough AD praise to be honest.
Best big of the playoffs and it hasn’t been close.
Another absolute masterclass on defense. Idk if I’ve ever seen a player play better defense than AD has in the last 8 games (and you can extend that to post all star but I’m specifically talking about the postseason)

Lakers gonna put an end to this fantasyland "modern NBA" three point chucking mentality that most people think is the key to winning titles.
I will enjoy every second of this because the Nuggets and Lakers play nowhere near like the Warriors and all their copycats
