Right now I'm just rooting for a game 7.
When game 7 comes around I'll root for the Warriors.

While that may be true, I'm still a Knicks fan, so there was never any thought of a play-off run. Not since Patrick Ewing. 
I am still not wrong, average margin of victory is 22+, and 8 of the last 13 games have been 25 point blowouts. One team gets hot, and then runs it up taunting, mugging, and acting like tools up and down the court. Add in the blatant cheap shots and fouls to the head, and the refs admittedly ignoring the rules to favor the stars, and I'll take a pass on the rest of that mess. Sorry, not meaning to troll, I'm just so disappointed. If you don't have a specific rooting interest, it's unwatchable.

Good, tough, hard fought game tonight. Tatum and Brown had more help than Curry and Klay. Smart and Horford showed up tonight, and nobody wants to challenge Robert Williams in the paint. Won’t be able to catch anything but the end of Friday’s game, if that, but it’s a real series at this point.
His defense has been nothing short of astonishing. He blocks shots like a guy who doesn't believe in gravity.
Hope his knee holds out for the remainder of the series.
Yup, great game. The Dubs tried to get something going in the third quarter but it wasn't enough. To beat Boston, they will need to play every quarter like it is the third.
The storyline advanced by several of the commentators about the Dubs struggling when they have two non shooting bigs (Looney/Green) on the floor has some merit. When Boston has two bigs on the floor, one of them can shoot.
When the Dubs try to fix this by replacing one of them with a shooter, they get smaller and risk getting crushed on the boards, as they did last night.

Curry cost himself, that foul from behind was RIDICULOUS. That's how you pick up your 4th? Really? Seems the b-ball genius has lost his mind.
for a guy who is done with basketball, you sure watch a lot of basketball.
3 different highlight shows ripped him for it. Watching Van Pelt is not watching a game. Good grief.
To be clear, your posts here are based on commentators and highlights, not watching the entire games.
Yeah if I got all my info from the commentators talking about highlight reels I wouldn’t want to watch the games either.
good thing I watch the games instead!
It leaves me no reason to watch a bunch of people tell me what I’ve already seen!

Wow, I don't think I even knew 538 had a Sports section, but for fans of data this article is elucidating:
Golden State’s Half-Court Defense Is Good, But Boston’s Half-Court Offense Has Been Better

I was watching the games. I found them unwatchable with 22 point average spreads. I stopped watching. I saw a highlight of Curry having a mental fail, as was discussed all over the sports talk world. Cue the TB thought police. Anything else I should say in response to this infantile attack would get me a vacation.
Yes it was. We have a new series and the Dubs have home court advantage. Curry was great but still gives credit to hie teammates at the post game.
