  Funny the Warriors probably win 65+ games and people act like they are dysfunctional.

  Not saying it's everyone, but in the last few weeks, there has been a narrative by some that the Warriors are struggling and taken down a notch.
  
  All while they probably will end up having a top 10 season of all-time. I guess with a lack of playoff races or big story lines down the stretch, they need to talk about something.

  This is a shocker to you? The media does this to good teams all the time in all sports. A few examples:
  
  -The past 7 Lebron teams
  -Warriors this season
  -Patriots a couple years ago when they started 2-2 (OMG .500 after 4 games) and the media declared their dynasty dead. They went on to win 10 of their next 12 games to secure home field and eventually won the SB.
  
  Nobody actually legitimately believed the Warriors were falling apart.

  This.

  Thunder blew a big early lead and didn't get a stop the last 6 possessions I watched and lost it late. Spurs got a couple good calls late that led to 4 crucial free throws

  D Rose with a torn meniscus.

  Welp, I guess we can officially take the Knicks out of playoff contention.

  Roseknee will replace "Achilles Heel" in the dictionary sooner than later.

  The same Javale who was crying about Shaq picking on him is now making fun of people.

  Wonder if we have enough interest to do an NBA mock draft in a couple months.

  McGee should be tossed.

  Not necessary by Stephenson but the butt hurt is over the top by a lot IMO. Big deal.

  Considering DeRozen did a windmill at the buzzer versus the Sixers, Toronto can fuck off. GSW of the east.

  Yep

  House to myself on a Friday night, watching some games.
  
  Cavs couldn't hit a shot, Hawks couldn't miss.
  
  Jazz - Wolves: Too much Ref interference. Let em play and GTFO
  
  Suns - Thunder: Thunder down 20, I expect Russ to go off 2nd half (I hope).
  
  
  Fun flipping back and fourth.
• Commander of Awesome

  

  Jazz are a tough team, prob bounced in the first round depending on matchup but tough. Exum isn't what advertised, but he's playing a solid defensive game tonight.
  
  Where's Ironman tonight, I assume he's watching ball.
• Commander of Awesome

  

  Is Towns that good, or Favors that trash?

  i watched Russ get his triple double. Thought for sure they were going to come back, too.

  Just an embarrassing lack of Def in Lakers Kings game. I feel like even the NCAA is watching this and lolling.
