    That was indeed one of the great games last night, but it exposed the Warriors. Curry is unbelievable, and Klay is a great shot too, but the Blazers are deeper and more well-rounded.

    Are we combining the Splash Brothers as one?


    I was talking to a GS fan last night during the game, and I told him "Wow, Curry and Thompson have 72 combined points" And he goes "Without them, we are nothing."

    I don't agree. I think they have a lot of depth. They have guys who are taking a back seat to Curry/Clay Thompson on offense, but none the less they have secondary scorers like Lee, Bogut, Iggy, and Barnes. Not bad. They have a bright future.

    Well, they don't have Bogut now... minus 1 trick.

    Minny is the most fun team to beat, because of their fans.
