Re: Western Conference Playoffs - 2nd Round Discussion Thread

What happened tonight to Golden State, with respect to Memphis, is the only way I see GS losing a game: both Curry and Thompson being ice cold.

Good luck having that happen four times in 7 games.

Memphis had nothing to do with this?

Careless plays all around. Bad habits.

... Just my opinion...

I will always blame any loss on David Lee if he ever steps on the court for a single minute. Every time David Lee touches the ball, especially when he throws the ball at the basket with either his left/right hand, it's an absolute prayer shot. Lee doesn't shoot the ball; He simply throws a prayer hoping it'll go in.

Does he not watch his own game film, and his "shot" or "throw" mechanics? It's like a catapult; hoping it'll hit the target. Box out, get the rebound, and pass the ball. That is your job. Only shoot the ball if it's a layup; and even then he often has trouble.

When David Lee throws the ball at the basket, it might as well be a turnover.

David Lee has been a solid borderline 20 and 10 guy his entire career.. His shot attempts definitely aren't prayers, though his defense is average at best

20 Turnovers don't help you if you're trying to win the game either.

Memphis at the very least will split at home, this series is more than likely going to go to 7 games.

Time for Kerr to start earning that postseason money then.

My bad. Forgot to bold a part.

Curry surprisingly hasn't hurt Memphis much this year, Conley/Allen have done a great job with him.. Klay has absolutely killed them. Even the home game where Curry dropped around 40 (I was there) was a result of Klay getting hot and Curry got some easy looks as a result, and eventually got himself hot.

Sadly I didn't get to watch game 2, I'm on a vacation right now.

Past and present, unfortunately.

The majority of the Warriors game this season. He has simply been a bench guy this season, with limited minutes, with several 'did not play' coaches decision. Word choice. But Lee's "shot"... if not a "prayer" ...

He definitely "flicks" the ball towards the basket hoping that it'll go in. It's terrible. I have absolutely no faith in Lee as a 'shooter' or his attempt to post up in the paint. For whatever reason, I have faith in everyone else on the team. It's only when Lee steps on the court, that I start to cringe. When he 'shoots,' I have that gut feeling the ball will simply clank off the rim ... defensive rebound to the opposition.

Chris Paul doubtful for tonight....

Re: Western Conference Playoffs - 2nd Round Discussion Thread

I think Memphis will win in 6 games. They matchup well against the Dubs imo.

Re: Western Conference Playoffs - 2nd Round Discussion Thread

Paul out, Austin Rivers gonna mess with the rockets again.

Re: Western Conference Playoffs - 2nd Round Discussion Thread

I'm thinking the Clippers will check out mentally by half-time. They're okay with losing right from the get go. Probably will rest some players.

Re: Western Conference Playoffs - 2nd Round Discussion Thread

They need a wake up call. This might be like the Cavs-bulls game.

Re: Western Conference Playoffs - 2nd Round Discussion Thread

Blake trying to beat them by himself. At least he's being aggressive.

Re: Western Conference Playoffs - 2nd Round Discussion Thread

Rockets honestly look just as bad as last game. They're just giving slightly more effort and scoring more effectively. And that's mostly because they're taking advantage of big baby on the pnr.
