    Series just got a lot less interesting. Now only thing to watch for is when Gobert and Dray are going to fight

    Butler goes ballistic, Hield hits 7-8 3's a game and GSW takes the series...

    Well, I am not sure how they can lose now that Curry is out. The entire GSW offense revolves around him.

    Curry is out of season.
    Its his first serious hamstring injury in career which is actually strange . He's 37 , he's not going to healed in a week or could be like Durant injury in 2019
    And I don't like his night night at all
    So injury is bad, but almost all GSW fans are trash ,they always wish injury to AD,and now trashed Lakers when Austin got injured so nobody is going to feel sorry
    Go Ant

    unless butler plays like he did in the 20 finals and draymond/hield are making 5+ 3s a game, i don't see how GS wins the series

    True, but some pretty unusual things had to happen in that game. I think the Wolves will bounce back tomorrow.

    probably. i'm just saying they don't play as well as the hunted. so i wouldn't be shocked if gs got another one in the next three or four, then curry came back and they won the last two.

    That means that Minny players have to play with the sense of urgency. This is their chance.

    Update on Curry status
    To miss at least three games
    May 7, 2025
    The Warriors announced Wednesday that Curry will be re-evaluated in one week.
    ANALYSIS
    An MRI taken on Curry confirmed a Grade 1 left hamstring strain. Curry's re-evaluation date is set for one week, which effectively rules Curry out until at least Game 5 on May 14

    Portland may have a no trade policy with the Lakers but its makes sense for both teams to be trading partners
    Robert Williams/Thybulle for Max/gabe/shake plus draft assets works and makes sense for both teams

    Robert Williams play less games than Mark Williams
    For his 7 year career he averages less than 35 games per season

    Have you seen the center market? It ain't great and if you're not getting ideal fits like Kessler I would try to get someone like Kornet or Sharpe to pair with Robert Williams so you can platoon. Only concern is do you have enough money to get a good backup guard like Schroeder, DDV at that point to have a complete team

    Robert Williams would be perfect for us if not for the injuries, but that's a huge if. If he has lingering injuries there's no point in even going there.
