I still think that Golden State will lose to Portland without Durant or Cousins, and Draymond will get suspended for at least 1 game.
Gsw in 3. Portland is broken. Game 4 isn’t necessary Took their best shot. Down relatively big at the half only to break their hearts again with a big 3rd.
Portland messed up my predictions, **sigh** I can tell by their body language they gave up when Golden State made that comeback. They're not mentally tough enough to handle this type of pressure.
Yeah, that game 2 meltdown destroyed them and they haven't recovered. Sure they were up big again but then GS did had another killer third quarter and deja vu all over again. Portlandia has some growing up to do. They weren't ready for the big moment yet at all. Instead they showed their lack of experience and savvy. Props to GS, they look great even without Durant. Well, I actually prefer the way they play without him. This series looks about over although knowing GS they could slack off next game and it might take 5.
It explains everything. Portland Trail Blazers All-NBA star Damian Lillard has separated ribs and is playing through the injury, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium. Lillard shot 5-of-18 in Game 3 loss to Warriors.
I'll take a wild stab .... separated worse and further than a couple are supposed to be? That probably smarts a bit playing NBA ball.
looked it up--rib separates from sternum, usually caused by blunt force trauma. so he got hit pretty hard in the chest, i guess. ouch.
Lillard with another unsurprising choke job in the post season. At least he was on target vs Thunder lol.
No slack for this? Don't know if explains everything but certainly would contribute some. That said I don't know how far into game 2 it happened and is not relevant to play prior. https://www.nba.com/article/2019/05/19/report-damian-lillard-separated-ribs
