    You're underestimating Klay and Draymond. Both very solid defenders who can hold their own against Jamal Crawford and Griffin. I expect Draymond to break out in playoffs like Harrison Barnes did last year; dude has a seriously high basketball IQ and rarely makes mistakes. Wouldn't be surprised if he worked his way into the starting lineup throughout the series.

    Obviously losing Bogut is a huge hit on defense and rebounding, but don't forget the Warriors beat the Clips 3 times last year with no Bogut. Clips might be forced to go small due to match-up problems.

    Jordan's free throws will be a factor.

    Warriors D is very underrated. Looking at the numbers what's holding them back from being elite is the offense not the defense.

    Yes I agree the warriors defense is underrated looking at the numbers. I remember watching draymond green when he was on Michigan st, dude was a stud. Stephen curry alone could win games for the warriors. That's how unbelievably good that guy is he can single handedly carry his team to victories with his scoring ability alone. The guys is unstoppable in the pick & role it's really something to watch. I'm very interested to watch the matchup between curry & Paul, two of the premier point guards in the league.

    difficult to not like the warrior at this price - even if they can steal a game in LA you can hedge

    I can't believe how many ppl think BOGUT is that valuable.
    Laughable for sure.
    Cmon guys.
    He's an average player.
    Definitely not going to cost this team or win this team a series, sorry.

    Warriors are overrated. Their game will depend on Splash Brother's shooting, which will not get them far against the Clippers. Clippers in 6.

    Really? Bogut is far from an average player; he's easily a top 5 defensive center when healthy. Also one of the best passing bigs in the league.

    Sorry DUB, I'll take Big Al (maybe not Cousins) anytime over Bogut.

    Still not top 5 defensive when healthy.

    Your analysis is a little off but if they steal this game you're in great shape

    Hope you cash it bud

    unless the warriors shoot lights out, this series will be done in 6. clippers have way to much size and boguts out.

    Benny... everyone talks about how important Bogut is to G.S....

    I don't think he'll be missed that much. Yes he's a BIG.. you need BIGS... but he's an inconsistent BIG. Sometimes he gets into foul trouble anyways. His free throw shooting is mediocre. Personally, I think he just gets in David Lee's way all the time. I think Lee could take over any game but he feels that he has to give Bogut a few touches here and there. Yes, you never want to have any of your teammates out of any game... but G.S. isn't at a total loss here. I'd take + points 9/10 times in this kind of scenario.

    Wrong!

    Big Al better overall but Bogut's a beast on defense. If you don't know that then you obviously don't watch Warrior games.

    Difference between saying they have a good chance and it's over already. 5 point game and it's over.

    Still is an integral part of their offense, and their second best scorer as well as rebounder. And everyone wrote them off as soon as he went down.

First 12345 ... Last
