Warriors using small ball for their starting lineup today: Curry, Thompson, Iguodala, Durant, Green.

[Message Board User 12395]

I wonder if even 40% of NOLA's population know they have a basketball team.

[Message Board User 12395]

Uh oh - this game looks like it's going to mirror Game 3 of Jazz-Rockets...

A little odd how ZaZa has been completely benched so far this postseason (not that I'm shedding tears about Golden State distancing themselves from "needing" him).

AD would obviously destroy him, but he's more disciplined than JaVale, and could at least brings some physicality for a few minutes at a time.

[MNLonghornFUKM 8817]

anything else on?

[aggie08 21504]

I like this attack. Why overcomplicate things. Just give the ball to the 7 footer being guarded by one 6'4" guy or another in the post, and let him do the rest. Shooting over guys, or passing to the open man when they double.

It's the NBA where 25 point leads aren't safe.

[aggie08 21504]

If/when AD wakes up, this could get good.

Man I'm so sick Draymond's bitch ass.

That tech was predictable.

Mark Jackson has a Charlie Brown head

[Bevo 13577]

Nice back to back fouls by Green. Only one called. The slap in the face wasn't called. Maybe Barkley is right.

[Machinator 32099]

Not a great time for the Pels to go cold.

Pelicans: “Let’s keep guarding KD with someone who’s 6’4. What’s the worst that could happen?”

They've put Davis on him some and it hasn't really made much difference.....

 

[aggie08 21504]

Gatorade was probably hoping that they could get more than a week out of their new Playoff P commercial before it became a running joke.

[hobbes2702 13038]

True but Holiday is clearly not the answer. You have to at least try something else

Real smoove

[aggie08 21504]

I'd give AD a crack at it next game. I know that superstars don't guard superstars in the NBA--and that would be one hell of a two-way burden (that also pulls him away from the rim)--but the only other real options they have are Solomon Hill and Darius Miller.

I don't think he could chase Durant all over the court plus give them the kind of offensive production they need him to have in order to win

Yea..... not sure they have a good matchup for him.  They don't have a true SF with length.  Mirotic may be brought to tears.  But I hear ya....

So true. I lived there and sports radio is Saints, LSU football 24/7.

Maybe this success will help things change.

Is two nights enough time to grow back a beard?

[immortal13 4059]

Welp, this series is over

[Underdog 28683]

KD is just phenomenal to watch, so smooth and effortless at times. 

[Patrick Bateman 3916]

Game is over.  There's a saying.... superstars show up on the road in the playoffs.  There was no doubt who the best player on the floor was today in what was the swing game.  So... hopefully the vocal minority here who continue to parrot the incredibly ignorant thought that KD is riding Curry's coattails can slink away....

Maybe Blake Lively will finally call me back, too.

Pretty predictable. GSW was not going to shoot that poorly 2 games in a row. They will easily wrap this up in game 5. As will Houston. West playoffs so far is about as uneventful as it gets. Hopefully Hou/GSW delivers and goes the distance.

Unfortunatey, Houston is not any different

[texasstrong12 4668]

Only shot at beating Golden State is to somehow force them to go big. When they are able to play that "death lineup" with Green at the 5 they are almost impossible to beat. 

Green, Thompson, Iguodala, Durant and Curry is so versatile. Not only can they score but they have 4 very good defensive players with that lineup. If you can't force Golden State out of that "death lineup" you're in trouble. 

The Warriors haven't even had to rely on the death lineup yet. Just imagine if they start playing that lineup 25+ minutes together.

that really didn't look like the zaza play to me...

Not sure what deserves a tech anymore. 

[Orca of Peace 109]

why not give AD 40 shots???

[Orca of Peace 109]

shit man, give the ball to AD every time down low. He's unstoppable.

[SDG 3319]

Nice run by NO there.  

[Orca of Peace 109]

Rondo is one of the best floor generals i've ever seen.   NO could have been up had AD not slipped on that one possession and on another possesion iggy knocked the dribble away as a NO player was about to score.  With Cousins, who knows about the series, probably 7.
