The "winners" won't let me post.
Big Jesus prayer by The Warriors.
Now they cannot be beat.
Now they cannot be beat.
Denver had the game in their hands when they were down by 2 with the ball.........but this GS team is something special. They play unselfish, and they have decent to good bigs for a change of pace. Also, 1 thing that I think Denver will never realize is you NEED that superstar(s) to bail you out when things break down. Curry is just plain out of his mind and has been for most of the season. Don't think they can beat SA, but their best chance at stealing a game will be game 1.
Karl seems like a cool person. However, his coaching philosophy speaks for itself. His teams lose a lot in the first round. I thought GSW was the perfect matchup for them since GSW was new to the playoffs. I was pretty sure GSW would eventually lose the series on some bone headed plays. Denver couldn't even beat them so what team does anyone think they would have beat in a series?
So they have a better chance of beating San Antonio in San Antonio then they do at winning 1 of the 2 home games?
Golden State has to have the lowest basketball IQ of any team I've ever seen.
MAN are they fun to watch.

It might be possible Spurs have been lulled into a little overconfidence by sweeping LA so easily. That might allow Warriors to steal game 1. Anyone who picks against the Spurs looks like a fool lately but there's almost no way Warriors could have that many turnovers again after they get a few days off and Jackson preaches the fundamentals to them again. At this point it just looks dumb to even think the Warriors have a chance in the 2nd round. But that's why they play the games!
No, what I'm saying is out of the 1st 2 away games, their best chance at stealing 1 is that 1st game. It may not happen, but I've seen plenty of times when the better team just got too much rest and the lesser team was just in a better rhythm because they played just recently.
Someone in the front office needs to find a fuckin shooter!
It's odd to me how this is always the knee-jerk response by people, for solving whatever problem a team apparently has.
I hear it constantly from Lakers fans.
Really? What's odd about the statement? Have you seen Denver play this year? Our best shooter is Danillo Gallinari who was hurt for this series. We are a poor free throw shooting team let alone jump-shots.
Knee jerk? I think not.
(2) What they need is actually a go-to guy. Old ass Andre Miller ain't gonna cut it.
It's odd to say the Nuggets, in particular, need a shooter because:
(1) As you stated, they already have guys that can knock down the 3-ball, i.e. Gallinari (.373 3FG% this season), Chandler (.413 ), and Lawson (.366). Also, they already have young guys who can shoot, i.e. Fournier (.407) and Hamilton (.370). Further, the Nuggets were 11th in 3FG% this season.
