Curry is just ridiculous, the GS/Minn game was going to go to 2 OT, but KD fouled KAT and he won it at the line for the twolves
 
quite a surprising race between the Nuggets and Warriors...and they play each other next Tuesday
 
Ridiculous end to GSW/Minny. But seriously, a so called championship team going overtime against a team playing for ping pong balls? Bad sign even if they won. And 0.5 seconds, couldn't manage defense? It's not like they were having to cope with Dame Lillard.
 
Yeah mind boggling, boy what's wrong with GSW? M
My guess: Boogie is toxic in one form or another, on the floor, the bench or in the locker room.

Could be...? without Boogie, Bell probably in the rotation more just like his rookie year, instead he seems to be lashing out a little.
 
I wish Minn or Sac were closer to the 8th seed.
It's my wetdream that OKC misses the playoffs. But I'm hard pressed to find 6-7 more losses for OKC while Sac goes on a run.
 
Yeah it seems like, according to the espn article, that Bell is wearing out his welcome at GS.

4 of those 6 are teams fighting for a playoff spot or playoff positioning right now.
Might change with the last two games, but I don't expect any team to be a walkover.

Put his hotel charges on Mike Brown's bill...haha

the confirmed story is that Bell was playing jokes on teammates and coaches as payback for all the room charges his teammates put on him as a rookie. It was a gag that Mike Brown didn't understand and didn't like....a $15 charge for a candle. The team suspended him and it cost Bell $9,500. Pretty ridiculous overreaction by the team and several of Bell's teammates tried to explain to Brown that it was a gag

Weird overreaction for a stupid prank like that. Jeez, I don't know Brown from a hole in the wall, but how could you that infuriate you???
 
I wonder what the Warriors will be fined for all of their whining about the refs last night. Even though they probably had reason to complain, the league doesn’t take kindly to public complaints, and the Warriors took it to new levels by specifically calling out a ref by name.

Great theater for NBA fans.

The warriors have nothing to whine about though. the foul on KD was on the floor, Im actually surprised they called it that way. However after that Curry shouldve been T’d up for trying to show up the ref he pointed at the dude the whole way down the floor after he made his shot. How isnt that a technical??? Then on the other end KD fouled KAT they can whine about it if they want too, but none of the calls were that bad.

Hopefully, the league sees it the same way and fines them big time. Tired of their entitled attitude.
 
I am not a warriors fan but i watched the KD non-foul 3 times and they got screwed and should be able to be reviewed. I would like to see a challenge system like the NFL but for last 5 to 6 min of a game and if you challenge and WIN you get ONE more but if you lose then you done. It might slow games down slightly but i think it is something to consider and if the NBA did not want this for the regular season then make it for the playoffs only.

It was a foul. If he didn’t hold Towns, Towns would’ve scored easy.

I was surprised they called it at that point in the game, but to me it was a foul. I also am of the opinion Steph shouldve been given a tech for showing up the ref. Honestly if the refs wanted to though they could probably give the warriors players and coaches so many techs...
 
I know a lot of people here were interested in Jonah Bolden in the draft a couple years ago. I noticed he had a pretty good night last night; 19 points on 5 for 7 from three, eight rebounds, three assists, a steal and three blocks. Looked up his season stats, shooting 51 %, 37% from three, per 36 8 rebounds, 2.5 blocks and 1 steal. Speaking of steals, at #36 in the draft, this guy was a steal.
(Just as a reminder that was the year we took Swanigan at 26).
