Here's why the Warriors are ****ed

[ArbitraryWater]

Curry, Klay and Poole were hitting some bullshit, and they lost. And were down 10 for a lot of the 2nd half.



Only way this comes back in their favor, is if LeBron will be too fatiqued by the every-second-day schedule.

[SouBeachTalents]

Curry really didn't have THAT great of a game last night, at least for his standards. And after a blistering start, Klay really cooled down the rest of the way, he only shot 9/25 last night. Poole definitely had a performance he likely won't replicate again though

But on the flipside, I don't see AD having 30/20 games on the regular, and they needed every bit of that to squeeze out a win last night. Imo, it's very early to try to claim the Warriors are fcked, there's a whole lot of series left, and while the Kings are certainly not the Lakers, I'm sure a lot of people were writing them off when they were down 2-0 last round and without Dray for Game 3.

[ArbitraryWater]

Those splits that Klay had, still look better than what he will shoot, given the bullshit he was hitting imo.

And Curry as well, the range of some of those shots... ike most of his 3s were several feet behind the line. that isnt normal. he didnt get a single open look at the 3pt line iirc.


The Warriors hit FIFTEEN more 3s and lost.

How many more 3s do they need to hit to win? Lakers can do what they did last night again.

AD might not get 30/20 but he can do 23/15 any time, Bron does a bit more, Rui plays more than 11 mins...

They played an intense game 7 on Sunday while the Lakers were chillin. Lakers had a huge advantage in game 1 that they won't have the rest of the series.

Remember that they were down 0-2 to the Kings and won games 5 and 7 on the road. They might lose the series against the Lakers but saying the 4 time champs are toast now is nuts.

forget all that,

the warriors had 3 guys make 6 or more threes... how often has that happened throughout NBA history?

and they still lost. i think this was a good effort for them.

As a team they shot 39.6% from 3. That is 1.5% over their average.

*yawn*

1.5% above the average, with far more attempts than their average, against stifer defense than the regular season, sounds pretty good to me.

the ony one i saw brick open 3s was wiggins.

everyone else id wage would hit less 3s in the coming games.

[Akeem34TheDream]

All that "he won't do that again" math is stupid. If you want to talk about defensive adjustments and strategies then do it but this karma? stuff is really a weird topic. X might make 2 less shots and Y 2 more, it evens out. Since its a team game, individual stats of superstars don't tell the whole game. This is pretty obvious but you ignore it i guess.

You must not have watched the warriors very often

They attempted a lot of 3s because the Lakers play drop coverage a lot. If they come off a screen and the big doesn't show they are launching. Pretty simple.

They take contested 3s all the time. They aren't waiting on wide open looks.

[RRR3]

How have you not learned not to gloat before a series has ended yet? God you’re so dumb

Rarely maybe never. It’s not surprising the warriors broke that record they’re the team everyone expects to do it. It’s not hard to replicate as long as Poole is good

They definitely took far more bullshit 3s yesterday than they usually do.

Which would be easy to assume just by the solid increase in 3s taken.

how? how what? What series are you refering to?

Im the one that gets things right dummie, did you forget?

If AD is going to camp out in the lane all game GS is going to take a lot of 3s. Duh
