We still acting like not having RW is OK?

LOL, I see the narrative is that Sefolosha's minutes being cut is more important than not having Westbrook. This is exactly why, despite all the legitimate points and sound logic, that hyperbole makes people think you're trolling.

face Suicide Watch: George Karl wins Coach of the Year award

5/8/2013 9:42:49 AM

it is a really bad pick, though

5/8/2013 10:17:56 AM

Thibodeau should have been unanimous

5/8/2013 10:52:52 AM

based on a formula I made up, I had Scott Skiles winning Coach of the year, getting fired midseason be damned.

5/8/2013 10:52:57 AM

Tibs, Spoelstra, and Popovich should have been the only ones to receive votes

5/8/2013 11:32:49 AM

Mark Jackson?

5/8/2013 11:34:52 AM

for what?

finishing 6th with a talented team?

nothing special about his coaching this year

5/8/2013 11:41:21 AM

They went 23-43 last year....and had no business beating the Nuggets (I realize this doesn't count)

5/8/2013 11:45:16 AM

they shut down Curry and tanked during the second half of the season

"it wasn't a dumb play by barnes it was only a miscommunication. Their plan was to switch on all screens but the screen never reached barnes so he didn't switch. the fundamental play would have been for jack to drop down with diaw but diaw slipped the screen and made it difficult to guard. barnes did the right thing. jack messed up but this is the case of what exactly does it mean to "switch everything" and what constitutes "being screened" because the screens were set but no defenders were actually screened. [Edited on May 7, 2013 at 6:48 PM. Reason : playing it the right way would've probably lead to a layup. ]"

They ran a similar play for the game-tying shot at the end of regulation as well. Barnes and Jack miscommunication as well during that play. It's gonna be interesting to see how often the Spurs run that play against those two again tonight.

5/8/2013 12:14:16 PM

Well obviously the thunder arent really that much less efficient without Westbrook. The series is still neck and neck like it would be with Westbrook.

Some of the differences are positive and some are negative.


Positive :
More shots for durant
Less shots for Westbrook

Neutral:
Jackson/fisher adequately replacing Westbrook s minutes


Negative:
very good player sefolosha less minutes bc they need ball handling
Perkins getting touches bc fisher cant create


Perkins is much much worse than Westbrook surely you can admit that

my imaginary dog is better than perkins


I can only remember Perkins playing for Boston ever. he should trade bait every year

5/8/2013 7:37:31 PM

bulls better take the 4th team out. heat are only up 8 but it could be 20 any second. LEBRON IS MAD BRO

5/8/2013 7:46:45 PM

refs are fucking blind tonight.

[Edited on May 8, 2013 at 7:49 PM. Reason : robinson got molested away from the ball on that gibson dunk. double fouls are bs]

5/8/2013 7:49:06 PM

called a tech because nate robinson said something bad to gibson in the bulls timeout huddle.

[Edited on May 8, 2013 at 7:56 PM. Reason : nate robinson just tbagged the dude on defense]

5/8/2013 7:52:37 PM

I feel that Dwayne Wade has a bad game every game. Bosh is sucking too

5/8/2013 8:05:45 PM

my god.

5/8/2013 8:09:14 PM

Does Chris Anderson have a basketball skill other than fouling and ?

1980 BASKETBALL DONT YOU LOVE IT



I turned the tv for 8 mins, when did the real Miami Heat show up?

5/8/2013 9:15:50 PM

when scott foster neutered the game.

5/8/2013 9:21:57 PM

damn this has been a blowout for 90% of this game

5/8/2013 9:30:39 PM

It was 42-38 21 minutes in.

5/8/2013 9:38:10 PM

I'm surprised that R Lewis isn't more in the rotation. must cant play defense worth shit.

5/8/2013 9:39:33 PM

Ws with a 19 lead to blow late in the 3rd quarter


haha called it.

[Edited on May 8, 2013 at 11:29 PM. Reason : .]

Easiest call ever as soon as curry went out

5/8/2013 11:31:55 PM

epic Golden state clown circus collapse coming up?

5/8/2013 11:49:01 PM

it's not epic if it happens every gat durn game.

5/8/2013 11:53:57 PM

maybe the Warriors are better than people thought?

5/9/2013 12:08:10 AM

smh. they should be up 2-0 where they could have shot old yeller in the head on their home court

5/9/2013 12:09:21 AM

Hard to beat a team that's always in front of you.

But yeah, they could easily be up 2-0 on their way back to Oakland. Will be interesting to see what happens

5/9/2013 12:12:01 AM

they can still do it on their home court I believe. spurs dont do shit in the playoffs.

will GS bring back jerseys with sleeves?

[Edited on May 9, 2013 at 12:23 AM. Reason : dd]

Klay thompson might have the most perfect box score ive ever seen.

Jesus and 4 lebrons wouldve lost to klay Thompson tonight

5/9/2013 12:24:47 AM

^^

EVERYBODY in the Bay Area hated those Jerseys. No way in hell would they bring them back

5/9/2013 12:27:26 AM

Klay Thompson aint getting that perfect box score with one Lebron on the floor

5/9/2013 12:42:43 AM

nah the Warriors suck

they can't close games and they're a college team. SPURS IN FOUR!

5/9/2013 1:10:57 AM

wat

5/9/2013 1:19:52 AM

just regurgitating some of the comments in this thread.

5/9/2013 1:30:58 AM

shocked that GS didn't just win, but did so convincingly after such a let down in game 1

i was certain they'd lose game 2 after that finish

5/9/2013 1:32:54 AM

Spurs have a dogfight on their hands. GS is a legit threat to beat them. This game was huge for them mentally.

5/9/2013 1:48:15 AM

Jason Whitlock is such a troll. Bringing the race card into the Derrick Rose situation is ridiculous.

5/9/2013 11:37:41 AM

I should have known the warriors had this potential after how well they played in 2k despite their low rating

5/10/2013 1:24:49 AM

Dude its 1-1.

A little early to count them out. Gsw lacks depth . The spurs are great at making adjustment s. All they need to do is bench Bonner, stop posting up Duncan on bogut, get splitter minutes, and go back to their high pick and roll with parker.

Im definitely a bit nervous but gsw is pretty bad. Surely the spurs wont blow this
