(3) Golden State Warriors vs (4) Dallas Mavericks WCF

[msgkings322]

I see it ALL the time. Refs absolutely do not pay attention anymore to the pivot foot. It’s part of fundamentals. We would drills on that shit

Not to mention Giannis taking 4 steps and stuff.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Yeah he got away with one. But every game we see that, this time you're right about the refs. On the other hand if they called travelling by the book the game would be just free throws.

I care less about fouls bc it’s a contact sport. Traveling clear as day should be called. I mean otherwise you can just run up and down the court without dribbling. No fundamentals anymore

 

[UK Cowboy]

Well yeah tonight it is. But you don't knock off the Suns playing bad defense.

I thought JKidd had a great plan against the Suns. Double team Booker and make someone else beat you. You can't do that against the Warriors. They share the ball and run out 3 shooters and 4 scorers. Can't hide Luka and our lack of a shot blocker down low.

As in the Suns series, the Mavs will shoot the lights out at home. I think they win in 6 or 7. As bad as they were tonight, if the Mavs shoot a decent %, they would be right there tonight

 

[msgkings322]

The thing is, if Dallas hit some shots early this game would look very different. I expect a much closer game 2.

 

[Robotech]

Dallas needs a rim protector. Their bigs suck.

Their bigs are 3 pt shooters.

So why are you watching?

Entertainment?
Boredom?

I routinely critique other sports bks.... it's still interesting to see end of day who wins as it has financial and economic implications. And of course sports. As dumb as the calls are (like baseball not computerizing the strike zone) I can still have some fun with it. It's better than listening to politics. At least I can badmouth things that pretty much everyone agrees with.

I think you can understand that.

For the reasons you describe I picked it to go 7 too, but Warriors winning of course. The story has just begun and each game looks different.

 

[msgkings322]

OK THAT move by Poole was crazy sick and not a travel

Hockey on though

 

[msgkings322]

Mavs dominated the Warriors in their season meetings so I'll say this continues tonight with another Warrior collapse in the 4th quarter.

Nailed it again! You're very reliable.

 

[Shanemansj13]

One player that pretty much never travels is Kyrie. Great fundamentals. His footwork is amazing. Most of these guards just travel up and down the court nowadays. They should just change the rules

Yah but the forum doesn't have hockey members that get all sandy vagina like you... so I'll stay here

 

[msgkings322]

@Montalban still got Mavs in 6 after this game?



(please say yes please say yes please say yes)

Seems like they sorta have LOL

 

[Picklerick 2.0]

Mavs in a clean sweep, that's my prediction, you heard it here first.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Their bigs are 3 pt shooters.

I'm fairly certain you can be a passable 3 point shooter as well as provide some semblance of inside presence. Just saying they need that piece going forward

 

[AD2022MVP]

If the Warriors had a killer instinct this series would be over in 4.

This

I don't worry about it much. Unless it's blatantly bad.

What you don't know about basketball is a lot

It is just one home win. Series is far from over
