That half-court shot I AM SURE... it what won us. Mentally, must have been demoralizing as hell. GSW should know.
Switched onto Curry once Dennis got tossed. Still did all.... MAN... 100mil may not be a proper price, really. Also... Poole at 140 ..... LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Not silly at all, I felt the same way! And then he came out and hit another 3 to start the 3rd. Essentially starting the 3rd quarter with a 13 point lead instead of 7 was massive, I think that cushion gave the team and the crowd a huge confidence boost
Rob promised him a spot. He made the correct gamble and it will pay off for him in the long run. Isn't life great? You make the correct decision you will be paid handsomely.
THis is why I thought the Lakers had a real shot against the Warrios: Reaves, DS are just absolute terrific chase defenders. Fight thru everything Then they'll bring it on offense as well three level scoring
I don't think its silly at all. At the time GS was feeling good about how they were pushing us. You have to believe that they were thinking the shots would fall. That run they were making had their chest poked out. Davis gets that block and Reaves hits that shot you can see the look on GS faces like "this game is getting out of hand." This kid has ice for blood and a skillset that warrants his confidence. Dude plays like he has been in the league for years not just 2
Game after game Austin solidifies himself as our third best player. The guy just does everything and anything that is needed. I agree that end of half shot was worth way more than three points to us. Later in the game Curry hits a three and Austin matches. He is a star that is only going to shine brighter.
That board over Wiggins and a push for DAR to score... Just such a winning player. I struggle to find a comp from the Lakers lore...
He was the sole source of joy for half the season and I was scared that when things get tough we gonna find out that he was but a flash in a pan. Silly me. He still is the source of joy and amazement.
So many big plays tonight. The Half Court shot. Three other dagger threes. The fastbreak dunk. Crossing over Steph and drawing the foul and scoring falling down. Couple of sweet drive and kicks for open 3s. And awesome D on Steph after DS got booted. All of that and more closing out the defending champs on the big stage. So impressive.
he is still young and doesn't quite know how to bring it large, every game, but even when he is having an off game, he does the little things and usually ends out in double figures anyhow. I think we found our third star.
Was interviewed on NBA TV for which he apologized to the fan profusely about accidentally hitting in the face as he zealously celebrated. No word yet if the TNT crew is laughing or if the fan was escorted off in a wheelchair after the game. Still down to earth after all this. Definite keeper.
