2016 NBA Playoffs WESTERN Conference Discussion

Eh, Jason Kidd would have just spilled some water on the floor.

 

Either way, what a crazy ending. I don't think the NBA is really gonna do anything about this. It's too difficult to change a rule about missed plays/calls in the heat of battle anyway.

These videos are going viral and putting the NBA all over the news. They should keep milking this as long as they can.

 

San Antonio still got the ball, and still got a shot off. They know the game should not have come down to one play, as you never leave it in the hands of refs.

As long as people are involved, mistakes will be made.

 

Ex-NBA ref Steve Javie: Dion Waiters play something 'I've never seen'

Uh-oh Warriors getting exposed. If they drop this one, it's going to put them in a tough situation because it's hard to win in the Blazers building.

 

I'm sort of glad to see the NBA come out and point out all the ref's mistakes but man I'd be livid if I were playing the game. These important calls down the stretch can really make or break the results. NBA refs hold too much power, I wish there was a way to fix it,

Damian Lillard is a bad boy.

 

Klay ties the game. What a game.

 

try penetrating and stop heaving Lillard

 

Just too damn good

 

Hopefully Luke bring some of this to us

 

Golden State may just get to the West Finals without Steph. That's how great this team is. It's really something to watch how crisp and beautiful their offense is and how rock solid their team defense is without their MVP.

 

Festus Ezeli really changed that game. Warriors needed that more than they needed the win tonight. He needs his confidence/rhythm back before the WCF/Finals because they need him over Speights/Varejao and when Bogut doesn't match up well. Underrated but important piece.

I was never worried about these guys without Steph, they are too good, too focused and too locked in.

Side note: Barnes is another guy getting his confidence back as well.

 

If I were Kerr I'd sit Steph out until they started losing. They seem to have stepped up with the injury, the other guys found their gear without Stephen Curry handling the ball 90% of the time. I really don't think they need Stephen for Game 3 especially since he comes back in and he's normally rusty and their offense becomes stagnate , because Steph is so ball dominant.

They built that team from the ground up without no super stars and they turned into this. I can only hope Luke coaches something similar in L.A. when we continue to add pieces.

 

The more i watch him, the more Draymond is becoming one of my favorite non-Lakers. He is doing EVERYTHING and he is exactly the kind of obnoxious a**hole everyone hates the most on the other team and that can always fire up his own.

 

They can't rest Steph forever. He needs to play at some point this series. You don't want him having to battle rust against San Antonio or OKC in the West Finals.

 

Sure it was

 

How underrated is Klay though? I feel he doesn't get much credit. His defense on Lillard was fantastic in the 4th. Just an outstanding two way player.
