Let's not forget Kings drop 176 points on the Clippers, a good defensive team. That's insane offense 🤯. Steph and Klay got to be blazing 🔥 the whole series to get past the Kings.
Warriors for back to back
Oh they’re definitely making the finals again
I PRAY THE REF'S LET US PLAY NOW THAT THE PLAYOFFS ARE HERE. GO WARRIOR'S!!!!
As a warriors fan it would be a 🔥 and exciting if the warriors makes it to the nba finals again 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Cj don’t want another draymond quote this year 😭😭😭
I'm glad McCollum Said what he did.
Everyone sleeping on golden state,keep doing that lol.
CJ knows what he is talking bout
Ist it Kinda weird that stephen a has a talk show while watching games?? As an analyst you should probably give your full attention to the game no?
No hate tho i love the guy.
I love GS but they're out in the first round this year, in my opinion. They have to play half the games they play on the road, which means they only have to lose one home game, if we go by what they did the ENTIRE season. There wasn't even a point in the regular season where they dominated on the road 2 in a row…they lost practically every match up. That means this team is used to losing as much as winning and I don't see how they can get past a team like the Suns or even the Lakers without having some form of away dominance.
There is ONE TEAM in the clear contention, in my opinion, and it's the Bucks. The only reason Boston beat them last year, which went to 7, was because of secondary scoring. Bucks didn't have Middleton and Jae Crowder, just Giannis, and Boston couldn't stop him at all. They just outscored him, even though Jrue was doing all he could. It's a different story this year, with Crowder and Middleton in the rotation. No one can stop Giannis or even slow him down, but with secondary scoring from the wings that's even somewhat consistent…Bucks win hands down.
And to put it into perspective…I don't think Golden State, last year, stood a chance against the Bucks with Middleton. With two wing scoring threats and an unstoppable Giannis…
This is Giannis' second ring year.
Buddy got bounced from contention and went straight to the part time job. Shameful.
All i know is ( LAKERS ) is Not LEBRON . Trade his A** 🍑 … & i dont wana see NBA TEAMs ..SHAVING PTS … it's unpro – to go scoreless …that dont even happen in PARK PICK UP GAMEs 😋🫡
Roar with us 🦁 Sactown
Warriors in 6 🏆 Finals
He’s head of player association for a reason.
The warriors when healthy will never lose
The Denver Nuggets are a fast TEAM. NOKIC has passing skills. Denver Nuggets are OVERLOOKED BY ESPN
Pels would have such a solid team if their star player didn’t eat everything in sight.
Lol Cj need to make sure his team in the playoffs boy out here doing side quests
Warriors if avoiding Suns again like last season can go to the finals agaib.
DON'T LET US WIN 5 CHAMPIONSHIPS😤😤😤
Stay on that side..😝💀😆😆
There’s a q on his career as wel
Cap
The Golden State Warriors are nightmare for any team in the NBA playoffs because they have the ability to torch you without notice even late in a game down by double digits ❤️💪💯 i
The Golden State Warriors are going back to back.
Whether YOU 🫵🏼 like it, accept it or not.
Against Boston, the Bucks – it doesn’t matter.
No disrespect to the Sacramento Kings – but I’ll be shocked if the Kings win even 1 game this series.
If you REALLY think about it:
(With Wiggs)
Best starting 5 offensively and defensively.
Great bench mixed with shooting, defence.
Great ball and player movement (pindowns, back cuts, lotta illegal screens tho 👀)[that Phil Jackson system mixed with Gregg Popovich system is just the best]
They are the best team in the NBA when healthy – hands down.
Don’t be fooled by that road game record.
After that 73-9 season came to a disgraceful conclusion in the finals – you could tell that they didn’t care about the regular season.
The Warriors are a different animal in the playoffs.
The most difficult question of the playoffs is which hand is Steph Curry going to raise his 2nd Finals MVP with.
My odds is with the right hand 👀
Yuck we’re sick of the fake dynasty that begged kd to join to beat lebron fake
At your own peril, keep ignoring GSW winning 27 playoff series with at least one road victory 🤫
He wrong.
Man if the warriors win the finals again this year I’m done with basketball lol (in a good way)
Meanwhile Ja Morant has set in motion a plan to exit first round so he can spend more time at the club
Warriors must get the rebounds and stop with all the turnovers and hit shots against the kings
The warriors must hit shots get rebounds and don't leave players open
GSW 2023 Champions
TELL THE WARRIORS TO WEAR THE CITY THROWBACK JERSEY
vanquish??? its only game 1. See you in game 2
The warriors just need every good team to be inured again like every championship they’ve won
For the first time I don't believe Dubs can do anything big in the playoffs
CJ no balling for final?
First round exits
