Klay 3 consecutive turnovers.

He has been awful in the second half.

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

Klay 2 pts 1-9 shooting , 3 fouls and 4 turnovers in the second half .

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

fudge! Traveling

 

[Russ Smith]

****! Traveling

leonard clearly fouled him on the shot but yeah blatant walk

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

Curry got hacked on that drive too

 

[AzStevenCal]

When 4 quarters just ain't enough!

 

[Russ Smith]

weird that Curry lost track of the game there at the end. It was a tie game he didn't need a 3 he could have just picked that ball up and shot.

He's gassed though played the whole 2nd half

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

Dubs have lost every OT game this year.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Curry got hacked on that drive too

The guy got ball first, all too often that's enough for a ref to call a block or a steal clean. And Curry did get away with a Harden-esque travel right afterwards.

Steph and Dray have no shame in arguing the easiest calls.

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

Klay So bad tonight

 

[Russ Smith]

I thought McKinnie pushed Lillard on both of those offensive rebounds but pretty impressive for a guy that inexperienced in big games.

And again that's Curry in a nutshell, totally gassed, missing shots and instead of forcing it up he hits the open Green who nails the 3 putting them up 4.

Steph wasn't arguing the walk he was arguing that Leonard fouled him on the shot before that.

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

GREEEEN!

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

That's Warriors ball!!!

 

[Russ Smith]

That's Warriors ball!!!

I actually thought it went off Draymond not Klay. It hit Klay but then a hand in the middle seemed to knock it out and I think it was Dray.

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

WEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

 

[Russ Smith]

You can hate them all you want but without KD and Iggy, with Klay playing horribly, and with Meyers Leonard channeling Dan Issel they still win on the road.

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

Myers Leonard was hot as can be and Portland ingnored him rest of the game.

 

[Finito]

3 out of the last 4 years Warriors knock out Dame Lillard

4 out of the last 5 Warriors knock out the Rockets.

This is like the 90s bulls lots of good players not gonna have championships cause of these guys.

Myers Leonard was hot as can be and Portland ingnored him rest of the game.

He went cold late

Does Terry Stotts survive this?

1-12 vs Dubs in playoffs last few years.

 

[Hoop Head]

Despite this being a sweep in favor of the Warriors it was more competitive than your average sweep. The Warriors played every 4th quarter like it was a must win game, coming back and knocking the Blazers around. The Blazers had no answers when the Warriors would start their runs in the 4th. You'd think they would know it was coming and play a little smarter or change things up some but they played into the Warriors hands.

There’s a huge talent difference. How many of those series were the Blazers favorites? Or anything but heavy underdogs?

The Warriors are a dynasty

I think he's a good coach I think they're close. If they were in teh East they might already have gone to the Conf finals at least.

That said I don't get why doubling Lillard away from the rim was that much kryptonite for them in this series? I thought Lillard handled it he gave it up and made the right play but they just didn't get enough from guys like Harkless and Aminu so they went small ball. Which killed them in the 4th because of Looney and McKinnie getting offensive boards against that small lineup.

If this is the last year of the Warriors I wouldn't be surprised if Portland is the finalist next year.
