Up 15 at half and up 8 late. They've got to be kicking themselves right now.
Portland peaked too early in the game, which we've seen happen to a lot of teams. Dubs just playing championship ball in the 4th quarter.

Klay's got to play better with the 2nd unit around him. He was a brick fest when he went out there as #1 without Dray and Curry. Kerr was managing minutes and when he had the top unit out there they smoked them.
Which is why most of us know Klay isn't leaving this team lol

He just isn't the guy that can out-athlete someone when the team desperately needs a bucket. I love him as a player for the W's but he isn't a #1 guy. You got Durant who has an unstoppable shot because he has so much length and an anomaly in Curry who hits these freakish shots, but with Klay he needs something else going on to get looks he can hit. He's a really, really good basketball player but he isn't a great one.

Exactly, the talent differential means the Ws don't get as tired late

I think if he worked on creating his own shot & works on his handles he would be a monster. IMO those two things are what really separate him & Steph.

Kerr gets this win. He was managing fouls and minutes for the entire first half but when he got the guys out there that he wanted out there they put the Blazers heads in a vice grip. Managing this bench must be like juggling chainsaws right now.

Among other reasons, that's one for sure. He is in the perfect system to thrive and why would you mess with that?

No shit sherlock......


That doctor on twitter you posted when the injury happened said Finals at the earliest, very possible he doesn't play the rest of the postseason. How the hell has not one media member picked up on that? They all just assumed he'd miss a game like he got the sniffles or something.
