Andrew mother******* Wiggins Really not sure how GS is going to win this game with Curry not having made a 3
Wiggins sure picked the perfect time to play like an Alpha for the first time in his professional career.
Just one game to go, one more game. I don’t know if GS can close it out in Boston, this probably goes 7, and that’s a toss-up.
seems to be Boston is a very frail team emotionally, probably due to inexperience. they are streaky as hell as seen today, where they started 0 - 12 from 3 pts, then made 8 in a row.
Curry would need to have one of his crazy shooting nights. Boston isn't going to turn the ball over and miss a bunch of FTs like they did tonight
Yes that’s true, but curry, dray, OPJ and wiggins won’t go 0/19 from three again. I’m standing by my prediction this is over in 6. Warriors are the better team, it’s clear as day. C Bags don’t have an offensive identity - they rely on Horford, Smart and White hitting 3’s. Tatum to me, just like Booker has been anointed a superstar way too early. Just ain’t what it is.
hope you're right. ball is definitely in the warrior's court. this was a golden opportunity for boston to steal a game on the road with curry struggling like he never has before and they blew it
Do they though? They have to win two games in a row and on the other side of the court you got Curry, Klay and Poole who can all catch lighting for a game. I wouldn’t be confident. This rightfully should already be over except some crappy shooters caught fire in the 4th quarter of game one for Boston.
Coming out party for Wiggins … these finals. Biggest stage and stepping up and delivering both sides of the ball. What a great trade improving the team for Russell.
Almost all media criticized that trade Wiggins-DAR…but I guess the Warrior FO can do no wrong, turning him into an all star starter and all around player.
yeah, tatum is overrated. i know he's the big story right now, but that's a forced narrative. very good player. not in the class of luka/giannis/jokic/embiid/curry (and i'd add healthy kawhi, lebron, AD, and maybe even morant to that list, tbh). and i'll say that even if he puts up 40+ in game 6. in terms of the former point, everyone keeps begging the C Bags to take care of the ball when they don't employ a single actual pg on the roster, and their star wings are still pretty shaky ballhandlers and decision makers. of course they're going to turn it over. not turning it over is the miracle here. this is what gives me pause. that happens again and curry twists an ankle, and boston's got a ring. but yes, i said before the series that i thought gs was clearly the better team. and they clearly are. i don't remember it that way? seemed like meh for meh at the time, with the warriors moving a redundant disappointing max player for a disappointing max player who fit better with what they needed. over time, they swapped harrison barnes for kd for russell for wiggins, who's the platonic ideal of harrison barnes.
I would take Tatum over Morant any day. Agree with the rest of the list, but AD is... falling down fast in my eyes. P.S. DAR was just a cap placehoder for them...
