Oh Boy, The Warriors Sure Kicked The Crap Out Of These Sad Randos In Spurs Uniforms<em></em>
The Warriors won Game 2 tonight, 136-100. If you didn’t watch it, don’t worry, you didn’t miss anything. The Warriors smelled blood in the water and ended the game almost right after it started. The Kawhi-less Spurs lost every single quarter and someone named Bryn Forbes played 23 minutes. The Spurs...
Mike Brown Almost Got Arrested Trying To Follow The Spurs Motorcade Before Game 2
Before the Warriors began their unholy beatdown of the San Antonio Spurs, acting Warriors coach Mike Brown relayed the story of how he almost got arrested following the Spurs bus into the Warriors arena. It’s very good, and involves Brown actively messing with the cops (who didn’t care that he was t...
Bruce Bowen On Zaza Pachulia's Closeout: "Intentional And Definitely Dangerous"
Bruce Bowen can cite a wealth of experience when it comes to stepping under shooters. Whether that makes him the most or least qualified to comment on that infamous Zaza Pachulia closeout is hard to say. Either way, Bleacher Report sought out his take, and as satisfying as it would be to pin Bowen f...
The NBA Rulebook Was Not Enough To Save Kawhi Leonard's Ankle<em></em>
Here is some bullshit:...
The Spurs Went Up By 25, And Then The Warriors Knocked Them Down
For the first half of Sunday’s Game 1, the Spurs shut down the Warriors more effectively than anyone has this year. Golden State didn’t manage more field goals than turnovers until nearly halfway through the second quarter. They didn’t make a single three-pointer until shortly after that. They were ...
Golden State Goes On 18-0 Run After Knocking Kawhi Leonard Out Of Game
The Spurs jumped out to a huge lead early in today’s Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals against the Warriors, giving Golden State their biggest losing margin of the playoffs so far as early as the second quarter. By the third, the Spurs led by 25 points. And then Zaza Pachulia came down on Kawh...
Draymond Green Is Leaning Fully Into It
Draymond Green has been one of the NBA’s most vocal players since entering the league, even long before he had the talent to back his mouth up. He is an arrogant, disrespectful goon, who is also the heart of his team and the best defensive player in the league. While other Warriors have struggled wi...
Draymond Green Denounces Kelly Olynyk For Dirty Play, Somehow Does Not Choke On The Irony<em></em>
On the latest episode of his Dray Day podcast, Warriors forward Draymond Green addressed the recent scuffle between Kelly Olynyk and Kelly Oubre. He shared some strong opinions on Olynyk while also revealing quite a bit about himself....
Kevin Durant Tells Jazz Mascot "Get The Fuck Off The Court"; Mascot Complies
Kevin Durant has had it tonight with the Jazz mascot, angrily telling it off and earning a flagrant foul for shoving Gobert late in the game. Durant also had words with a man in a bear costume, depicted above....

Enjoy The Sweet Excess Of David West's Dimes
Of the Warriors’ 40 made field goals last night, 32 came off assists. While this could instead be a blog about overly generous assist credits—and yes, after rewatching many of them, I’m tempted to get petty—even a hater must concede that Golden State dropped many, many sweet dimes while thumping the...
Steph Curry Made Rudy Gobert Look Like A Bewildered Child
You can’t double team Steph Curry on the perimeter. If you go under the screen against him, you are allowing maybe the greatest shooter of all time an open look. You can switch a big guy onto him, but that means Steph gets to go at a larger, slower defender. Maybe it’s not that bad if that big guy i...
The Warriors Seem More Worried About How Boring Utah Is Than The Jazz<em></em>
The Warriors recently put the finishing touches on a sweep of the Portland Trail Blazers, and they had to wait almost a full week to find out whether they’d be playing the Clippers or the Jazz in the second round. A Warriors-Jazz series is a much more interesting prospect, because even if the Clippe...
Is Gordon Hayward Good Enough To Give The Warriors Some Trouble?
Quietly, the Utah Jazz—the nominally starless, “quirky” squad, the basketblogger’s catnip—has birthed a star of its own. Despite a bout of food poisoning, Gordon Hayward led the Jazz past the Clippers in seven games, averaging 23.7 points and 7.1 rebounds per game, including a 40-point torrent in Ga...
Nobody's Buying Under Armour's Steph Curry Signature Shoes
Steph Curry’s shoes aren’t selling, and Under Armour CEO Kevin Plank tried to explain that with a heavy dose of corporate speak in an earnings call today, where the company reported its first-ever losing quarter:...
Kevin Durant Enjoys Meme Featuring Kevin Durant
The NBA playoffs’ best and most versatile GIF has been validated by Kevin Durant, one of its co-stars, according to a recent episode of Still KD. It’s a funny, slightly surreal little reminder of how celebrities can turn around and delight in their own cultural influence, relishing the memes they l...
Holy Shit, That Warriors First Quarter
When the Warriors are hot, there’s nothing you can do. No other team so gleefully tosses their opponents in the trash and sets that trash on fire as the Warriors, and no Warriors run this playoffs has been as violent or as thorough as the incredible first quarter they put together tonight in Portlan...

The Warriors Got The Blazers' Hopes Up, And Then They Killed Them In Four Minutes
Exactly halfway through the third quarter against the Trail Blazers last night, the Warriors were down by 14 points. After four more minutes of play, they had a two-point lead, and from there, they didn’t look back. ...
Hell Yeah, We Got The JaVale McGee Game
The journey from “cheap Shaq punchline” to “competent role player on contender” continues straight through the playoffs, as JaVale McGee gave us the purest 13 minutes he might ever produce: 15 points (on 7-of-7 shooting!), five rebounds, and four blocks. Good for him, and for any sap watching, becau...
