I'm loving the playoffs. Love the Bulls. Love the Knicks. Love the Warriors. One of those three will win the championship.

That would be cool by me. :)
 
Man, what do you know... TA comes into the game, and Durant's stifled.

I love Marc's game, but Tony Allen should have been the Defensive Player of the Year. Not enough people are saying that right now. I hear a lot of people saying LeBron James should have been DPOY, which is ridiculous... a guy who didn't get a foul called against him for how many games?

I know that Bayless and Pondexter are better offensive weapons, whereas TA probably leads the league in missed layups, but damn, his defense is more than worth his offensive mistakes.

There are rumors that he's been at odds with Hollins. If it came down to keeping one or the other this offseason, I really hope our management is willing to pay Tony Allen his dues and get rid of Hollins. He's just invaluable. Been saying all season long, even when we had Gay, we have a core four - Gasol/Z-Bo/Allen/Conley. Keep those guys together, and the sky's the limit, but getting rid of any one of those guys would likely kill our chemistry.

Not getting a foul called on you while shutting down your man is the best defense there is.

I love me some Tony Allen, but was surprised to see that he's already 31.

A player who I think could be Tony Allen-esque is Ronny Brewer. I can't understand why his career is foundering after he was so useful with the Jazz. Like Allen, he can't score a lick, but he's a very good defender. And, trivia time, he was born in Portland. I'd kind of like to see him come back. (Of course, I doubt he has the Allen intangibles.)

Brewer would be an awesome pick up, but there is a player we have on our team that is younger and has the potential to be at that same defensive level.

His name is claver! He has a unique b-ball IQ and seems to really get it quickly. In a couple years, he maybe even a better version of brewer.
 
The difference between Allen and Brewer is that Tony isn't as dumb as rocks
 
Didn't TA say he loved NO? Would love to pick him up after we get a center.

Yes he did. Tony Allen would be a great pick up.

First though, it would be nice to get a defensive guru on our staff. Scheme might be more important than players at this point
 
Birdbrain doing nothing but shoulder checking people tonight.
 
Wow, the refs fucked the Bulls tonight.

Props to Taj Gibson for telling the refs to fuck off.

I love how consistent and even the reffing is in the NBA.

Fuck that. Steph Curry JUST starting to get some superstar calls. Never seen a Warrior get em before.

I say keep it up Stern!
 
Say what you will about Mark Jackson's coaching, dudes gets his players to PLAY. GS is rolling three rookies in the 8 man playoff rotation and they've got confidence like they've been doing this for years. Klay only a second year and Curry 4th year in his first playoffs.
 
Klay Thompson is amazing. Aldridge for Klay? Didn't someone we needed a top tier SG? That's as top tier as you get.

He gets so emotional when I feel like his team needs a stable hand, but it's kind of funny. The players become the stable hand. Regardless, he's a very relatable entertaining coach. This team is hella fun to watch. I'm loving these playoffs. Only series that bores me is Thunder/Grizzlies and even then, those games have been close.
 
Refs really railing Ezeli this whole game.
 
Crowd is rattling the Warriors. The Spurs are ultraconfident. They're the only undefeated team in the playoffs.
 
Damn, I love that the Ws are winning this game!
 
Still hurts so bad that my W's could be up 2-0 heading to Oakland. Silver lining is that game 1 was a tough lesson learned. This one wasn't as lopsided, yet you could tell they kept the aggressiveness up at 100% until the end.

I guess if you told me heading into the series that we'd get a split in the first two I'd be pretty happy. Sooooo fuggin close to getting both though...
