Dream Team 4: Golden State Warriors

No one wants to acknowledge the travel in that clip? Dude had landed before getting the shot off.

I guess Curry is injury free now
Must be a game by game situation

Suck - I'm injured
Play great- injury free

 

[The Oi]

Jesus Christ. How was that layup impressive?

It was a routine reverse layup. Pete Maravich won HORSE contests with those in the 70s, because guys were laughing too hard to make the shots.

Does somebody have a list of either

a.) How many Warriors opponents were on a SEGABABA?

b.) How many Warrior opponents rested key players?

The Steph fan boy club is really reaching these days.

This is in jest right?

Unfortunately, no. It was even clipped out on the front page of ESPN.com for a bit during the game last night.

I've never hated a team more in any sport. I don't root for injuries normally but...man would it be nice if someone at least pulled a hamstring on that team.

Thought I'd mention Marc Spears was on the radio this afternoon and mentioned how different the Oracle crowds have been the past two years. He stopped short of saying "entitled" but pointed out the suburbanization of the crowd, the old "roaracle" people seem to be selling off their tickets to the highest bidder.

Also heard Ethan Strauss talk about this. The ferocious dubnation is apparently bored because Steph isn't making 35-footers anymore. Or something. He also had to stop himself a bit, but did talk about how many fans are attached to players and not teams and how this seems to be a, khm, disproportionate issue for the Warriors.

Yea Moz did it earlier this year when everyone was going big conspiracy theory, and, well, the results aren't great for furthering that conspiracy.

The analysis is done, and it is pretty blatantly unfair how the NBA schedules are set up.

While Golden State is on a run of lucky scheduling now, they actually don't have the most games facing a team on the second night of a back to back (though they are tied for second).

Here's the rankings

A few takeaways:

1. I'm PISSED if I'm Brooklyn and I'm calling into the league office to ask why multiple teams have 3 times the number of opponents on the second night of a back to back than us.

2. GSW has 9 more opponents on the second night of a back to back than SA. For the 1 and 2 seeds in the West last year how does that happen?

3. Honestly same with Cleveland and Toronto. Just because it benefits us doesn't mean it isn't ridiculous that the NBA is this bad at scheduling.

@col63onel

I haven't seen anything as far as opponents resting players goes though

 

[Zog]

Cannot stand the Warriors, had to change the channel... Curry acts like some entitled 16 year old kid, so immature acting out on the court.

 

[tristan+kyrie=$]

The warriors choke

 

[Taiter]

Good grief, Memphis.

 

[Cratylus]

Can't believe Memphis came back. They were down 24 at one point.
