Need Karl Towns to dominate tomorrow

It’s a back to back so they’ll play the youngins more which should actually benefit GS, I wouldn’t bet against em

 

[Maximus Meridius]

good lord, steph needs to put his gm hat on and start shipping out klay and wiggins

Dray the GM though. He got KD there/reason KD left and traded Poole.

Mans really need more help.

He was going to the corner to set a half *** screen for Mann. He was obviously checked out mentally at this point.

 

[keko jones]

Released from the hospital on the same day but out a "significant period of time" doesn't make sense to me.

Nonetheless, glad to hear he'll be okay long-term.

Broken arm/leg? That's just a cast and on your way.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Call the flash up, Ballmer

 

[keko jones]

Turn that BS game off and go watch the UFC main event. War!

 

[Maximus Meridius]

**** Dray

Glad they caught this slick ****.



"They always catch the second guy..."

Nah my _ get up outta there.

 

[moe200069]

sports fans say the most dumb ****. it’s one thing to call a player trash or say they’re washed, but joking about injury? why are we like this?

 

[703 hwy]

Like I said Ballmer would be foolish to pay any of these guys. Blow it up

 

[rbk93]

Go Rockets.

Teams used to take pride in trying to obtain the top seed. Now it’s about just barely making the playoffs and figuring it out from there.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

I wonder how long the Warriors are going to stick with Dray/Klay as the core players, they not that anymore and just wasting the last prime Steph years trying to run back an old formula

"Something leadership"

"Something they'll be fine"

"Some kinda revenge brewing"

"Something about Keminga all star year wavycrocket "

Bill Simmons has brought that up a few times over the last couple of years. He said they need to incentivize winning divisions.

 

[Mister Meaner]

You can tell Draymond’s trying to set the tone
…
Yea, Draymond has some timely screens

This kinda tricky cuz some divisions worse then others…Might reward a division winner over a 2nd place team that has more wins like in the NFL when .500 teams host playoff games cuz they won their division

 

[pmatic]

Top three seeds in each conference should be able to pick their playoff opponent in the first round.

 

[frshstunna]

That scenario gon go just as well as the all star draft, will only last a couple seasons

What they could do is top 3 plays all home games in the 1st round like the play in games but then it will be even more rarer for any upsets in that round

this is rich coming from a fan of team whose title hopes are contingent on austin reaves becoming all-nba

 

[moe200069]

You Warriors fans are very spoiled on officiating. I don’t think you realize just how much Draymond gets away with that LITERALLY NOBODY ELSE IN THE LEAGUE DOES.

Thanks and have a good night.

at this point of his career, i think dray gets officiated in ways that commensurate with his actions. he's been suspended in playoff series and thrown out of games that have effectively cost warriors' games, and possibly the '16 finals. refs aren't as tolerant of him complaining about calls and his overly physical play.

however, the retroactive tech he received after the replay, even if it's in the rule book, felt like BS. how that wasn't a tech on donovan mitchell as well for reacting to dray was dumb. he made no attempt on the ball and just shoulder checked dray, but it's a common foul?

I'm on freeze time but congrats elpablo21 Happy for you bro and I know you'll be a wonderful father
