    It pains me to say this, but if you replaced Curry with LeBron right now, this Warriors roster, even without Klay, could absolutely compete for a championship. Curry has to prove he can do that to REALLY be in this conversation guys like me want so badly to put him in

    Grant Williams is right on the edge of a 50-40-90 season. Wow.

    Warriors our here looking like the Chernobyl set and still not a peep about the Raptors getting lucky. In 2015, Warriors were basically tabbed as three-time lotto winners because teams that weren't better than them and were never going to beat them had a few injuries. Funny.

    Official word from Warriors: MRI and CT scan for Kevon Looney tomorrow, MRI for Klay Thompson.

    Here we go again. Dude is getting box and oned and doubled everywhere creating every bit of offense GS can muster and still averaging 28.5. Iggy getting MVP in 2015 was an indictment on voters not being able to really understand what's happening and why. Remarkable.

    Curry was great in Game 1 and they lost but it wasn’t on him. He wasn’t great in Game 2 but he made the right passes off the Raptors broken coverage and his gravity helped punish Toronto. I think Draymond’s probably still in the lead for FMVP for Golden State.

    We all agree that Luka is going to sign max extension with Dallas, and yet before he even signs it we're talking about him leaving. THIS is the wheel that carries the NBA

    Every time LeBron sets a teammate up and they brick it he visibly sinks a little inside. The guy has to be at the end of his rope

    I think I'm completely flipping my "Lillard is gone" stance to "the Blazers might be doing gods work here" on the fly.

    These conspiracy theories that refs actually have an agenda are stupid. That doesn't mean the refs aren't just straight up bad

    Steph Curry is arguably a top 10 player of all-time. But i’m saying 2015-16 Curry, specifically, is the greatest basketball player ever. I dont even need to have seen everyone else. No way anyone’s been better than that.

    I think we can conclude Anthony Davis' bubble jumper was a fluke.

    After bringing Shaq to PHX and KD to GS, Kerr now had a hand in sucking the fun from two of the most fun teams in basketball history. Curry is basically Team USA Curry now, just another shooter running off screens. Congrats reducing a generational player to just a pretty good one

    I don’t understand why in this situation Kerr doesn’t just tell Curry to start trying 2016 shots. Just start launching from 40.

    New story: Anthony Davis believes him and LeBron James can still lead a title team but admits the duo need to discuss “what changed” since the Bubble in rebuilding a contender this summer es.pn/3Kxb4zH

    So folks have been comparing the weird @GMB morning show interview with the climate activist in the UK with *that* scene from #DontLookUp. So we at the @MehdiHasanShow put them side by side & the results are.. astounding. Reality mirroring art! Watch:

    won or lose, this is one of the guttiest performances I've ever seen from the Warriors
