Both Dame and CJ shot like shit from the floor, Klay Thompson played literally as well as he possibly could have, we fucked ourselves repeatedly by not securing rebounds and some silly plays on offense, only had 36 hours rest to their 4 days, we're on the road, and down 14. Meh. Could be worse I guess.

We're gonna come out strong at the top of the third quarter. This game is winnable.
 
Stop crying about the refs. We are down because we failed to locate Klay on defense the entire 1st qrtr. In the second qrtr we played better defense but we failed to secure the defensive rebound.

Portland scored 34 points in the second quarter, the most points scored by a Warriors opponent in any quarter this postseason.

And we didn't even work that hard for most of it. We were just getting easy baskets by slicing up their defensive shell and then making the extra pass to the open man once they collapsed. Then we stopped doing that for a while and threw up some shitty, rushed shots for no good reason and they turned it into a mini-run.

We're seeing what we need. That intel is invaluable.

I still think I would trade CJ. If we could get Boogie, I would do it.

On the half time show they are questioning the future of our tiny backcourt. They kind of have a point, at least where defense is concerned. And, we could use a better post player. Vonleh is probably two years away.
 
I need Mike Barrett and Mike Rice to comfort me during games like this and to agree with every bad call in my head.

Refs with some shitty calls, can't dismiss that. However it's not like this is the only game where the refs suck.
 
Warriors, who led the NBA in fast break points per game this season, have outscored the Blazers 15-0 in fast break points in the first half.
 
"Oakland Warriors!"

Shut up, Jalen.

He's our top scorer today on 50% FG and 40% 3FG.

I like Aminu when he's shooting a wide open corner three and on defense. When he tries to do more it is often disappointing. As I've said all season, I'd love him off our bench.

I mean, we're seeing the other team just abuse us at the two guard spot. First it was Redick, and now it's Klay.

The issue is really that they're both poor defenders, and not so much their height. The height issue really only makes it worse. We can't hide two shitty defenders in the backcourt.

Yeah anything that involves dribbling you can almost always count on it being a turnover. Cringe cringe cringe.

He's shooting 60% inside the three point line. He's had a few bad TOs but he's definitely a net positive in this game.

Redick didn't play that well in that series. CJ thoroughly outplayed him.
 
Where's Jade Falcon he's the only person that feels me
 
I'm predicting the final score will be GS 120-something and Portland 90-something. It's going that way.
 
Aminu with the high IQ taking the worst fucking three I have ever seen in my life
 
Jesus this guy just keeps shooting and it leads to more negatives than positives
 
I'm so much more comfortable with Harkless handling the ball than Aminu.
