Curry is playing just about like I thought he would when he was coming out of Davidson. I underestimated him big time then, but I think his physical limitations are sticking out in this series.

 

[TwntyOneTwlv]

Cleveland is kicking ass. Warriors can't handle it. I love it.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Curry is 2011 Finals Lebron.

 

[Darkman M]

Bron has these boys shook right now.

 

[elrechazado]

credit to the "cav's defense" when gs is just playing like cow turd.

Yeah guys defense has nothing to do with how the team being defended plays!!!! Amirite?

 

[diffusionx]

Curry is 2011 Finals Lebron.

yep

 

[BronsonLee]

Ok Golden State, time to enact Plan C

Plan C for Chop Block Delly

 

[HeySeuss]

Is Golden State the Oregon Ducks of the NBA? Dominant in a conference of mediocrity only to be exposed on the big stage?

 

[Cooter]

The thing that gets me is it isn't the Cavs defense. They are missing layups and open jumpers. Looks like the pressure is too much for them to handle to me. They better start believing in themselves and get some confidence or this will go down as one of the biggest choke jobs in history.

 

[JustenP88]

Wtf why do I keep double posting

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Will either team have 80 before the end of the game?

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Curry has only 3 points at the half....MVP...

let's be fair: he's being hounded and double teamed/trapped when he has the ball. he has to give it up. Also, I'm pretty sure the GS gameplan is to accept those doubles and find the open man. Their role players aren't hitting the shots. Also, Steph is not working hard enough to get free on screens, so his shot opportunities are limited. And he's such a great rhythm shooter...well, when he doesn't have an opportunity to find a rhythm due to pace and minimal opportunities, the results are as expected.

 

[mreddie]

What's Harden doing...

Something odd.

 

[Jonm1010]

The analytics and stats have led me astray. Warriors not named Iggy are booty butt cheeks this series.

Analytics are merely the reflection of what is currently working in the NBA. I think this series and the playoffs in general is showing that the playoffs and the regular season are two different animals and analytics are going to need to adjust. Which they will.

 

[eBay Huckster]

What was LeBron's statline at halftime in Game 4 in 2011? Because I'm looking at Curry's 3 points and thinking "yep."

 

[alr1ght]

As much as I hate to say it, Delly should be there.

 

[friskykillface]

Deandre Jordan wouldn't get beasted on the boards like this

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Complete panic is setting in....

 

[BlackGhost]

Cleveland is kicking ass. Warriors can't handle it. I love it.

Wait until the 4th qtr............
It always crumbles those last minutes.....

He's having a bad series so far. Usually the shots he's been missing usually fall. If he gets hot or Kerr makes some adjustments they can still win this.

 

[UnObtainium17]

What's Harden doing...

Hunting pawgs in htown

 

[commish]

Like I've been saying, Kerr is being outcoached like a mofo this series. He's running the same shit over and over without success.

 

[Syphon Filter]

dat hyperbole!

How? NO kyrie, look at what bron is playing with.

 

[AyaisMUsikWhore]

YALL NEED TO STOP THIS 😂😂😂😂😂😂

 

[Kastrioti]

lebron's even better than i thought

he can take the knicks + tristan thompson and shake a 67 win team

Could he take the 2006 Smush Parker, Sasha Vujacic and Kwame Brown Lakers to the playoffs though?

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

:/

 

[Crud]

o shit

 

[Cooter]

Nothing to to with physical limitations. This is mental.

 

[MiamiWesker]

Curry is 2011 Finals Lebron.

Yup.

I am in shock at what is happening. I keep waiting for the real GS to show up but its starting too look like this is it.

He's also only shot like 6 times. I don't care how shitty your teammates are playing he's the leader of their team. He's done this shit in the past.

'Yo, you're not gonna hit that, Wade'

'But I'm just talki-'

'SHUT UP DWAYNE'

At least Wade's Achilles isn't exposed.

 

[rando14]

waddup, haven't seen you in a while.

nm man, been busy w/ school but finally get some time off!!

ahahahaha

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Switching over now that the baseball game is done, am I right to assume the score looks closer than how things have played out?

 

[Doc Holliday]

Can we stop talking about the much better the western conference is? Heheh

Not really. If you see the defense, it's been quite good. Delly has pretty blocked the shit out of Curry. No open space for any easy 3's. Same goes for Klay.

 

[KazenY2J]

Warriors with 37 points in first half

Curry with only 3 points

Iggy being the leading scorer is concerning too.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

If we can even get 6 minutes of good basketball out of this game I'd be satisfied. Surely the game won't end with turnovers and clunk shots? Even Lebron can play a good 6 minutes with some shots made or something, let's see some action.

 

[skLaFarebear]

LOL

 

[Jonm1010]

This series is making me have new reservations about Gentry as our soon to be head coach.

The Warriors have really not adjusted well to what has become the same gameplan that they struggled with Memphis.

 

[Cyber Caesar]

Oh my. Shots Fired!

 

[Cooter]

Not really. If you see the defense, it's been quite good. Delly has pretty blocked the shit out of Curry. No open space for any easy 3's. Same goes for Klay.

Really. If they hit half the open jumpers they have missed they'd be up by 10.

 

[BronsonLee]

Yeah, Golden State is playing like ass. Cleveland's defense is solid too

Delly is playing like an idiot though

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Cavs gonna pull away in the 2nd half and win by double digits. I can feel it. It's that kind of a game.

 

[RedAssedApe]

Barnes and splash bros combined for 9 pts...

 

[commish]

I honestly have no idea how someone could be watching this game and say this.

Keep floating that narrative so you can downplay a Cleveland chip. Not transparent at all.

 

[JustenP88]

What's going on in his head? Did something happen to cause this mental slump? You think he's shying away from the moment? Is physical defense getting into his head?
