almost like NBA attempting to make sure warriors stay in until curry can recover.
yeah, I wont be surprised if they loose a game or two with the clipper to delay playing with Spurs before Curry returns. WWNBA...
Clips/Blazers are tied... Clips may not make it out of the first round. But I don't see how the Blazers can stretch it vs Spurs, as they should get crushed.
what happeend to the king?Spurs and Warriors are the only two teams I could see getting to the finals without their best player. Both are coached well and have deep benches. The Cavs could beat anybody at full strength, but without LeBron they probably wouldn't get out of the first round.
this is what happens when you change you name from the Bobcats.charlotte with 2 playoff wins in a row after 14 years without one. not bad

Game 4 first half was for me progressively unwatchable. Toward the end of the 2nd quarter I could barely believe what I was seeing, the play was so sloppy, chippy, aggressive, spiritless. Then, on the last play of the half, the worst thing that could happen to the NBA happened, Steph Curry was injured in a fashion that was just super unlucky (player falls, wets floor, Curry never sees it, slips on wet spot, is injured). Hopefully, he returns and is effective sometime down the line in the playoffs. If not, just a shame. I didn't figure the Warriors to win game 4 after the first 1/2, but they sure exploded in the 2nd half. So, I guess there's hope they will survive Curry's absence. I don't know if it's in them. I suppose it's possible.embarrassing for who? I guess you mean for the Warriors... don't forget we are comparing "all time best" NBA team with a team that almost didn't make playoffs
None of those names really work for me, but I used to think that Warriors was a tough name. Now, I'll concede, maybe not so bad. Wizards isn't horrible for a name.The Hornets...
What's wrong with Bobcats compared to say, the fucking Raptors or Wizards?
Warriors without Curry can still beat any NBA team with relative certainty, they have a deep bench and a good coach, they only team that can defeat them is Spurs, again, without Curry. With Curry they are unbeatable, period, and that made the playoffs dull and boring. Taking Curry out of the equation has brought back the excitement into the playoffs.
The reason Warriors were struggling in the 1st half was because of injured Curry, him not being at 100% was dragging down the team, was changing the tempo of the game and the other players were trying to protect him and play at his pace. Once he was out, Warriors were able to play their game again. It's as simple as that.
Charlotte?...for realz?...damn, that's some good stuff. :thumbsup:
