    The Warriors are just an awful match-up for the Clippers. I'd love to see a few more games of this. Or this:

    Also, you can like or dislike Bogut, but this guy is seriously underrated. His D is ridiculous.

    West is an astute builder of teams... It doesn't need to be comprised of All-Star caliber players. Picking up consummate role players like a Bogut, Iguadala as such to complement proven players like Curry and Thompson along with a burgeoning star like Draymond Green is a testament to his savvy. They also have Lee and a still serviceable Livingston.

    ...the series? This will go seven.

    imagine if they drafted Andre Drummond instead of Barnes?

    Curry along with Anthony Davis are my favorite players to watch. They're Allstars but they don't showboat or act like they're entitled to be the best. They just go out put on a show and have fun doing it.

    Love AD. Didn't get much chance to see him this season, but I had him 2nd behind Curry for MVP for carrying his team to the playoffs in the West with his no name team.

    He does it all for his team on both ends. Not many players can say that.

    I think the Warriors and Griz are the only teams I would root for winning the championship this year. I don't care which comes out of this round as long as they stomp Rivers's or Howard's team

    AD is so darned good. I love watching him play. I loved the Pelicans vs. Warriors series, just a joy to watch. As I said in that thread, the NBA is in such good hands with players such as Curry, Klay and AD. I can't wait until the Lebronze era is done because I have never liked him nor his ego. I'm sick of the Roids/HGH, sick of guys like the Beard who gets every call by running into people, sick of the whining from guys like CP3 and Griffin, sick of Dwight Coward . . . can't wait until guys like Curry and AD stick a fork in 'em. Couldn't come soon enough for me (maybe this year, hopefully!)

    Yes to ALL this! the Lebron era has been so unwatchable for me, combined with the nightmare seasons that the Lakers have had since 2010.

    They better, because you never know with a tough team like Memphis. Although, as I said before, the Warriors are the best team in the league right now, and they have some depth too.

    I think this one goes seven, and gs takes it at home. Memphis is a bunch of tough SOBs. I don't think they lay down at home, like, say, the clippers.

    GS off to a quick start. 14-8. They aren't even defending Tony Allen. Lol. They put Bogut "on" him again.

    Allen does a good job sticking to Klay but man he's terrible on offense. He can barely make a three and he's just as bad with the lay up.

    Sorry for quoting myself, but...

    When that happens, you can't beat this team. Or I just don't see how.

    Shooting threes 71.4%. WTF?

    Also, Kerr is saying all the right things, in the right way. Great coaching.

    75% on threes now. Jesus.

    GS is the way the league is trending; a jump shooting team? I think that's a misnomer; they run pick in rolls, they flash to the post, they cut, they all over without the ball, and their offense is predicated on everyone moving even in a pick in roll where they are running other actions out of it; so the other 3 players aren't standing around. It's beautiful to watch.

    Yeah the way the Warriors are playing this game/series is over. Not expecting the Warriors to have a Clipper-like meltdown.
