    Curry is the best shooter I have ever seen. The Warriors came back, and he drilled two threes to force OT. Unbelievable. This kid has ice in his veins and shoots threes like free throws.

    If GSW wins now, they will break the Pelicans' heart. We'll see what happens here.

    Actually, hitting 77 in a row and 94 out of a 100. I'd say he shoots 3s like most people shoot layups........ uncontested layups.

    Bogut with a clutch defensive play.

    Man that's a heart break for NO. But that's OK. AD is young but he'll learn to make those shots as he gets more experience.

    Wow.

    I feel a little sorry for the Pels. They're very inexperienced when it comes to postseason play and it showed tonight.

    Curry is showing why he's the MVP.

    Speights snags the offensive rebound, runs with the ball before handing it off to Curry for that game trying trey. I just lol'd at that.

    Curry/Warriors need to go back to the way they played during the regular season i.e move bodies and the ball ...

    Jacking up three in transitions/early in the shot clock when it's not your night from the field is just dumb .

    BS, refs shouldn't in any way decide the outcome of games by swallowing their whistles

    CRAZY game!! Wow. Steph is just phenomenal and so is AD but like Revgen said, he is showing his inexperience down the stretch and just not finishing it off although he's playing superb ball.

    Have to say I am a little sad that GS pulled it out though. For one, I really love how NO is balling and Anthony Davis is just a superstar player. Two, I love the city of New Orleans and I'm stoked for them that they made the playoffs and are playing so well - it's great for the town!

    Third, I just selfishly want this series to go as long as possible because it's been so enjoyable. This is what basketball should be - incredible skills on display, passion, energy, excitement. It's so fun to watch. I can't stand watching guys like the Beard getting dumb call after dumb call - rewarded for running into people and living at the line; or the "Kang" with his ego on full display and what I find to be a very clunky style of play. These guys - NO and GS - are playing the kind of ball I love to see.

    So it's a shame that NO is down 3 nothing. They may have one last burst left in them but it's got to be incredibly disappointing to be up by double digits most of the game and 20 in the fourth and then see it slip away. We all know they won't be winning 4 straight against the best team in the league this season. But having seen AD I don't think he'll give up without a great fight. Hoping they get the next win to extend this wonderful series. Again, I wish they all were like this.

    That is one of the dumbest things about the NBA. Refs need to start call the game as they see it, instead of trying to create storylines.

    If the Dubs close out the Pelicans in five or maybe in the next one, they will likely see The Memphis Grindhouse. That is when Bogut and Lee will be key. If does appear that Golden State is playing more iso "hero" ball than usual. Playoffs... It is when the "stars" feel that they have to up their game rather than playing within their offensive schemes that took them there.

    Is Stephen Curry a better shooter than Ray Allen and Reggie Miller? When it's all said and done will he be able to top them both?

    Where you do you see Anthony Davis in the future?
