Basically the playoff Warriors are a whole new thing. We haven't had all year to evaluate them.

Remember, the big 3 literally didn't all play together AT ALL for the entire season. These playoffs are the first sighting of that trio since the 2019 Finals. So there seems to be considerable upside for these guys...big 3 plus Poole plus Wiggins plus Looney there's just too many legit players. Porter too. Payton coming soon. Hell Kuminga for shits and gigs. Lotta tools in the box so to speak.

If it's Warriors Celtics as a lot of us expect, that one HAS to go 7. Celtics D is no joke but the Ws like I said have so much to work with...

The Warriors were 1-3 in the regular season against each of the Nuggets, Grizzlies, and Mavs. Maybe you're onto something. 1-1 against the Celtics, but if they had played 4 times, Warriors would've been 1-3 against them, too.

But again, literally not the same as the regular season team. All healthy (almost, GPII soon), all together

Warriors were about 50% from field and 50% from 3. Highly unlikely They shoot that well in Dallas.

Depends on the looks. If Warriors continue getting whatever they want inside, they could shoot higher than the 56.1% from the field that they shot tonight. I wonder what adjustments the Mavs will make to stop all the points in the paint.

Dallas got absolutely destroyed in the paint...
Correct. I know a guy that got ripped who said the Mavs were great at defending the wings but terrible defending the paint. Funny how it looks when some folks on here have to watch the games instead of talk about defensive ratings
