Blasphemy! I have never used the report post button before but I'm considering it...
The truth often hurts but I have a compulsion to say it; my wife one time mentioned to me “ya know, just because something is true it doesn’t mean you have to say it.” Maybe she has a point, maybe.

The difference between Curry and Pedro in my mind is that Curry, as unbelievably brilliant as he is, is doing this in a golden age of 3 point shooting. Pedro utterly dominated at the height of the steroid era. The Curry equivalent would be doing what he's doing now... 20 years ago.

I’d like to believe this but I can’t. I think it’s because I don’t like Curry that my brain is like a record skipping thinking “fuck, this motherfucker is so good”.

Really curious how Dray thought the Nique attempt was going to work out for him. He was like 5 feet short.

Lakers are going to win by more than 5...they’ve been flat lining but I can’t believe they won’t wake up and also get every call in the 4th

Draymond is such a good player for somebody that is just incredibly bad at scoring the basketball. Like he couldn't do well against the chair.

Golden State coughed it up a lot in that quarter. Lakers just better with Davis at the 5, which everyone knew. If GS can take care of the ball I think they can easily win. They've gotten really good games on both ends from their role players.

Embarrassing the Ws have to waste their challenge here, not even close to set

It took video replay to force the refs to call a foul on the lakers this quarter

Why is Van Grundy continually taking about LeBron being on a minutes restriction while openly wondering if he’s done for the night?

It’s a freakin play-in game!!!

So if he comes back in and closes out a win they can talk about how tough he is and if they lose they can say he's not healthy

No it’s just asinine JVG talk. Oh he now confirms that he WILL return to a tied up play-in game. Brilliant work Jeff.

I've literally never heard of Mulder and I read pretty much all of SRN's posts. How bad must he be to not have gotten at least a half-hearted post highlighting his TS% and per 36 numbers?
