We'll see if the Warriors recover from the end of the season stretch of stinkers.

God damn so happy Curry is back. This is so much fun to watch especially him and Klay running with the 2nd team

Pitt Gorilla · 05-01-2018, 09:32 PM

Dramond Green is really, really good.

Edit: AND just went coast to coast for an and-1.

What a shot to end the half! Thompson off glass for three.

**dirk digler** · 05-01-2018, 09:42 PM

Chuck says he wants to punch Draymond in the face

At the game laughing at the latest Raptors choke against this team. That was an all-timer considering LeBron was tired and conserving energy for most of the game.

The sad thing is that they actually are better than them this year too but DeRozan/Lowry don't actually believe they can beat them so they won't do it. Cavs in 6 remains my prediction but the Raptors better win on Thursday if they even want to get that far.

Very much so, a close approximation. What matters is that the players don't (or at least the ones that play the end of the game) and that's why they never will.

Would have liked to have seen Poeltl over JV bricking every 2 footer and getting outmuscled for every rebound. Poeltl is better anyway.

NOLA has done a great job hanging so close but with Steph back and playing well it seems like a run to pull away is coming at any moment.

**dirk digler** · 05-01-2018, 11:02 PM

Game and probably series over for the Pelicans. Curry was dominating tonight even playing limited minutes.

Series ended before it started. It's a 73 win team that added Durant to it.

Yep. Hell of a run for the Pelicans. Gentry should be COTY. But their outmatched in this series. I'll be impressed if they take a game.

ChiefsCountry · 05-02-2018, 07:20 AM

Wish the Pelicans could get Kawai to team with AD. That would be fun to see. Of course it won't happen.

The Pelicans probably would have won last night if Curry didn't play. As long as they stay healthy they should get to the Finals. The Rockets series is going to be off the hook though.

Yep. Regarding the possible Rockets / Warriors series - I hope so, because I'm a Rockets fan...BUT to be completely honest, I can see the Warriors beating the Rockets in 5 or 6. Reason being, this Rockets team has been built to beat the Warriors. If the Rockets don't win at least one home game to begin with, I think they'll go "mental" and that will end it early. I think IF the Rockets do manage to at least get a split at the start, they'll have at least a punchers chance, and IF they manage to win the series, it will go 7.

O.city · 05-02-2018, 08:27 AM

If the Warriors are healthy, I don't see a current team in the league that can beat them.

If you could get AD in Boston with Kyrie and Heyward, or Lebron in Houston maybe.

They're just damn good though. They shoot it so well and they're well coached.
