Think suns have figured em out a bit. Prob can’t play Zubac/Plumlee at all when the Suns starters are out there. Maybe bring Covington out of mothballs

Draymond Green is a bitch.

Like CPHoya.

Justifiable suspension as he is a notorious repeat offender.

CPHoya stepped on McLovin's chest and got ejected from 2+2?



Line only moved from 7 to 6, man Dray seems worth a lot more than a point. Looney on an island vs Fox/Sabonis sounds rough. Game 3 at home down 0-2 even the bums shoot like Reggie Miller though. Zig Zag. Maybe Donte will be playable.

Among Green's mistakes, beyond stomping on Sabonis, was getting into it with the Sacramento fans during the video review process - with Adam Silver sitting in the fifth row watching it all unfold with Auburn Hills memories in his head.

that's going to be a difficult one for Golden St. Really hoping they make it through as I think Sacramento is drawing close to dead for a title and I like Golden St.

I never bought into the whole road struggle thing as they have experience and I never felt it would be much of a thing in the playoffs but one thing that was true for most of their season and is a real issue is they were quite terrible throughout the regular season on the defensive end. 1st half you can probably chalk up slightly to "winner's hangover" and the 2nd half of that is going to be Wiggins and missing his wing defensive presence but losing Draymond is huge in this next game. Obviously if they lose game 3 it's going to be extremely tough sledding the rest of the way. Let's hope they pull it off.

With Draymond, I'd be (semi) surprised if Warriors didn't battle back and beat kings both games. But now I feel it's tough to take both and think they are serious dogs to win the series.

The Warriors feel like Domantas Sabonis is using the ball as a ‘weapon’ on offense

“There is some anger within the organization toward the league. There's a sense in the organization that Sabonis is shoving people on offensive rebounds and playing with his elbows out and using the ball as a weapon on offense.”

this is so sad lmao

Sabonis is literally jeopardizing the Warriors' players careers by using the basketball as a weapon.

I wonder if there will be a class action lawsuit!

As the saying goes: You either die wholesome, or live long enough to start using the ball as a weapon

There was just like 12 straight plays where Minn got layups because of Jokic's awful D

I'd close Towns/Slowmo with Gobert on the bench I think, just make Jokic defend these guys rather than have an easy hiding spot

wow that is some major news

Ballmer betting on Kawhi/PG13 was not a sound decision.

Imagine a world where they just built organically and kept SGA!

It's a medical miracle he managed to stay together long enough to ship in Toronto.
