Series Thread: 2nd Round: Golden State Warriors vs Utah Jazz

[Shanemansj13]

They are playing with Exum and Mack lol. Great weapons

It looks like Draymond is okay. Warrior fans breath a collective sigh of relief.

Ok, Dubs up 11, time to pull the starters?

 

[TJL]

The bank is open


It's still soooooo awkward listening to Marc Jackson call Warriors games

 

[wildturkey]

Draymond back on the bench. Maybe ok? He better be. I didn't wait all year for these playoffs to be derailed by injuries

 

[msgkings322]

Whew...

Utah is no damn joke. Can you imagine what they'd do to any team out East except Cleveland?

 

[wildturkey]

Someone should investigate Green for point shaving...

That was the 53rd time this season that the Warriors put up 30 assists.

Nuggets are in 2nd place, having done it 19 times.

Just like I said with game 1, Utah is good enough to hang around and prevent a total blowout, but really can't threaten them in Oakland. I get the feeling they win 1 in Utah though.

I'm with you. The Jazz just getting outplayed from the opening in both of these games. They just gotta steady the storm in the 1st qtr.

 

[Ickey Shuffle]

Good bounce back game from Hayward.

 

[LAD]

He seems uneducated.

If he comes after my friend @LAD , we are going to have real problems.

 

[LAD]

Does anyone else laugh hysterically the amount of times Mark Jackson has had to call Warriors games? Maybe I'm just an asshole.

Yea I've noticed. Sometimes it seems like he's hating just a touch....he doesn't go all out but he'll say little things here & there.

 

[ChrisWebber]

Yes.

1. MJ
2. Kareem
3. Magic
4. Lebron
5. Wilt

Olive oil?

I'd be petty as well and try to downplay any success that they've had. You could say maturation with the group and the core pieces was needed and that he was fired too soon. But it doesn't help that Kerr implemented a system where they've since won 60+ games 3 straight seasons (and broke the Bulls 72 win record that many deemed unbreakable including myself) and have won a title while in a position to win another.

Agreed. I also think he should get much credit for getting them over the hump in terms of being competitive and making the playoffs. But, he wasn't able to get the job done based on the goals of the owners. And maybe some think he was fired too soon, but I think it was right on time. Especially when we see what Kerr was able to do with pretty much the same core in his first season as HC.

Crazy/Fun stat of the day...

Golden State has not trailed against Utah and is on pace to finish with the best point differential in NBA playoff history at +15.8 PPG.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Since there's only the Golden State Globetrotters vs. The Utah Generals on tonight, y'all watching the fight?

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

2018 Warriors according to some.

Utah will play two close games at home I think, and win one...
