    Warriors have lost 6 straight finals games at home

    Without KD

    This one
    3 vs Toronto
    Games 5//7 vs Cavs

    They needed KD. They will not win without him.

    I think you're giving Kevin Duckworth a little too much credit here.

    They were pretty depleted vs Toronto.

    I don't really think it's a "home" trend. I said that I thought Gold St would need more contributions from YOUNG guys to win the title. Who might that guy be?

    I just don't think Wiggins is very good. He's not a real efficient player.

    They had injuries vs Toronto no doubt. Kawhi wasn't a 100% though. The one who was healthy? Curry.

    It bugs me that he gets off the hook. He had a shot to send that to7. ( Where anything can happen). Guy gets too much credit and not enough crap. Hotdogger.

    Excuses are pouring in for the Warriors. They were rusty etc. If they won they would have been well rested. Kerr played Iggy too much but who knows Kerr might be tinkering.

    Books opened-4 with the obvious bounceback but no one is touching it nor is anyone taking state series. This will get worse trust me.

    Laker, players have been talking the NBA bounceback/reversal for decades. The ONLY truth I see to that is the refs sometimes giving the 0-1 team every chance to get back to 1-1.

    If you think the Celtics are the superior side, +4 could represent great value. These series aren't guaranteed to go 6+ games. Sometimes, it's a short series.

    I hear u on Curry hot-dogging. But you need to back off on him. Guy has had a great career. Question is How Much he has left. I was at that NBA Final game where he was virtually the only offensive option they had.

    You see Wiggins stepping up? I still say Wiggins is not a "percentage" player.

    Maybe you should back off on Wiggins. He had 20 last night. He isn't even supposed to be in this conversation man. What about Klay? Oh wait he only shows up in game 6.

    This is Curry's team. It's his time. Who knows? Maybe he will carry them. They were favorites before the series began.

    Games 5/7 Vs. the Cavs was in 2016; between those two and the three to Toronto, they beat the Cavs at home three times in '17 and twice in '18. As previously mentioned, they were big-time injured vs.Toronto; admittedly, this loss was inexcusable but I hope you're not betting good money based on your shoddy research.

    Curry has never been clutch as the guy when it matters. Draymond and iggy did all the heavy lifting against LeBron the first time they won.

    Durant hit the big shots against cle when the refs were on lebron's nuts. Curry had a chance to win when silver suspended Draymond for no reason after Kyrie hit the eventual game winner. They got the switch they wanted with curry on love and he choked big time

    random trivia: the dude who stitched on that uvaldi school shooter wore an celtics cap.
    after game 1 its for sure a sweep.
    can you believe horford was the leading scorer.

    Very true, but doesn't help the Warriors couldn't have made a basket if the rim was the size of a hula hoop.

    If the Celtics go 2-0 here I will finally concede they are incredible.

    Losing 6 straight at home direct reflection of the coach

    Since being named head coach of the Warriors in May of 2014, Steve Kerr has led the squad to six finals appearances in eight years. His playoff series record has ballooned to an impressive 21-2 with the only two losses coming in the 2016 and 2019 Finals....2022 TBD


    He’s perfect in conference series.

    You can’t lose six straight home games that’s just not normal

    That's right, it was a total outlier full of 3's. Boston has not shown consistency yet.
    Therefore, the line is right. What happens tonight can be argued either way.
