    How come Steph couldn't get it done?

    He still had Iggy, cousins and green. What's the excuse vs one man tor team?

    sucks for Steph cuz there is no way it plays out without the narrative being that he could never do it himself

    Igoudala is old, Cousins is nowhere near 100% and Green can't shoot, Jordan wouldn't have won with that team around him in this game.

    He did all he could do. Van Gundy said the Warriors wouldn't even make the playoffs if their team was Curry, Cousins, Iggy, Green, Cook, Bogut, McKinnie

    Lebron won the east with jr smith, k love, and tristan thompson. who does kawhi have that is so much greater than iggy, green, cook, bogut and mckinnie? danny green, lowry, and siakim aren't worlds better than those guys. and they were on the road.

    i think klay def stays if kd leaves. i saw interview after he didn't make all nba. he was pissed saying nothing he did gets noticed. saying how making 5 straight finals should mean something and how not making the team is bad for his legacy. interesting to see what all star they grab after kd. they should keep boogie as well for a bargain rate. let him start on a 1 yr deal so he has a chance to play to get a big contract. he isn't even mention with big f.a. this summer. i think cousins needs the warriors and a lower tier all star still makes them a top team in the west.

    Seems like he wants to stay but if they try and pull some shit like "hey we need some cap room so take a hometown deal" then I think he is gone. Boogie seems like he would take a deal to get a big payday. Who knows what's going on with his body though. This will be an interesting summer.

    Yeah exactly. (Not sure about the Jordan part though)

    And Steph did get it done.

    No help at all.

    As for LeBron, based on the what we saw in LA this season, it's proof that Cleveland Team was much better than we thought and maybe LeBron got too much credit.

    Van Gundy is an idiot. He also said GS would have been a prohibitive dog vs the bucks w out KD. yet the line at 5dimes was -220 GS

    A team with Steph, iggy, cousins, dray, and a bunch of stiffs would 1000% make the playoffs in either conf.

    Gotta love the hot takes after every game. Once GS wins game 4, then everyone will jump back on the State side. Toronto took care of business against a depleted team. Good for them. Klay will be back for game 4. The offense, and even more importantly the defense was lost without him.

    The ONLY thing I disagree with here is Iggy is now one of those stiffs

    The Warriors team is like most championship teams 2-3 great scorers and then role players, the role players are solid players they just aren't scorers, if they were they wouldn't be happy playing with Thompson,Durant, Curry, being the 4th option.

    You are correct

    However, last night there was only one solid scorer (Curry)
    and these role players showed they couldn't step up their game when needed.

    A couple of these role players are close to being done.

    No Thomson was big.. That showed.. Cousins was a complete no show also.. Steph alone is not enough to beat this Raptors team.

    He did everything but get the rest of the team water when they were thirsty. lol

    (Toronto controlling the paint is the answer.)

    Order will be restored when Thompson comes back next game. He's arguably the best defender on that Warriors team, he was missed..

    true

    this team isn't built for a one man team. you can allow curry to run all over the court and hit baskets, but if the other teams defense blankets the rest of the team you're not going to win many games.

    I believe missing KD isn't the main factor here ( but it would help ), it's Thompson shooting and his defense

    he will be max 75-80% and will NOT be an effective defender. sorry to burst your bubble.

    Laker, why are u prodding? Enjoy the team's success.

    As for GSW, I don't think Curry had a very good game. He just didn't have help. Green had a bad game, and Cousins is a slug.
