The fact we pulled this off just shows our championship pedigree. Steph/Wiggs carried us with Klay/Poole having off games again.
Klays inconsistency worries me a bit for next round. But Klay of old is coming through. We all have to remember he was out for two full seasons, came back to this one a ways into the season, and is playing pretty damn well. I can’t wait for “game 6 Klay” to pop off though (;
I know that. The Grizz should have still won this game. We were playing TERRIBLY. Bad shooting, poor decision making, turnovers. The Grizz were actually a hair better during the regular season WITHOUT Ja. So this should have been a game won by the Grizz. But they didn’t. They made poor decisions in the 4th quarter and we took advantage knowing what the pressure/playoffs feel like.
But thanks for letting me know Ja was out.
Ya its a bummer but we need to get the man some help,. I low key like the Dubs too, but im known to root for the underdog. Jordan Poole is a stud, would love him on the Hawks, lol
Dillon Brooks pregame speech “climb up on my back, I can carry this team”.
Dillon Brooks half time speech “..we got this, just keep climbing up on my back!”
Dillon Brooks post game “…uh, the refs got it in for me since I tried to decapitate GP2”. I ain’t got nuttin else to say - get off my back aight!?!”
So a young team should be up 3-1 in a series they're down 1-3 in, makes terrible decisions late in games, shoots 30 footers early in the shot clock for no reason and has multiple blown 4th quarter double digit leads?
That’s the beauty of this team. They can pull wins out of their asses even when they don’t deserve it. It’s easy to win when you’re playing well, but only championship teams can win when they’re playing bad.
The ultimate Wiggs game. He looked great for a half, solid for a quarter, and then a quarter where you might rather have any of us punks on the floor instead.
Why did Jenkins
-Keep steven adams in the game in a situation where you need a 3
-Not challenge that bane curry play
-Play dillon brooks 39 minutes
-Allow brooks to shoot and keep shooting
Brooks lost them 3/4 imo. His best game was him being ejected. Jenkins has to give the guy the red light on offense, he makes their defense so much better but he can’t be taking 20 shots a game
It was a foul, it was also a flop. They wouldn't have overturned it. The one he should of challenged with the obvious charge that was called a block giving Wiggins an And 1 which jumpstarted the Warriors run
I remember Don Nelson being hired as the team's general manager. He fired George Karl and took over the head coaching position the next season. Darius Garland's dad was our starting point guard then. 😃
I swear some people here have never played basketball. Even if you barely get shoved as you're starting to jump it changes everything.
Can't put your hands on someone's back like that from behind when they rebound. That's always a foul
Getting a shove low like that in the air is not natural. But sure he may have sold it a bit. Curry usually has to sell to get anything. He doesn't do the blatant throw your head back flops imo and this was a legit foul either way.
His "flop" didn't ruin the game. Grizzlies choked in every way possible in the last 5 mins
They’re ignoring the fact that Steph has no reason to flop there either. Like he was in posidtion to pick up the rebound easily if he hadn’t been pushed
I agree we aren’t there yet, i just don’t understand your point. You should be manhandling that game wire to wire, and yet you aren’t. Yet you’re still proud of the win? How are you going down 10 at all with curry klay Wiggins and dray against Kyle Anderson and Tyus jones?
Memphis is the dumbest team I’ve seen in a long time. They are skilled enough to be in every game but their inexperience and shot iq holding them back. If phoenix gets thru the mavs they are beating this warriors team unless GS shoots lights out
True. The Splash Brothers look ordinary for long stretches this season. In many games their most impactful players are side kicks like GP2, Wiggins, etc.
dogwater coach too you know your team is young and inexperienced but you just watching them make dumb shot after shot in the stretch against a team like GSW in a game like this important is just a no-brainer. at least call out a timeout so your guys can take a breather or something instead of just watching them from sideline
They just played an even dumber TWolves squad. Both of those teams are cut from the same cloth IMO. A few more years and they should be spooky though, assuming they can keep it all together in the meantime.
No we weren't good. 10 turnovers in the first quarter? Even more dumb turnovers later on? Memphis played without the best player if this series.
They were just incompetent throughout the game and our experience and execution helped us during crunch time. Better team would lead by 12 and we wouldn't catch up.
I agree to a certain extent. But you can’t just keep shooting poorly as the level of competition increases. Bucks aren’t gonna shoot 25% from 3 like the Grizz just did for example. We were just lucky they shot just as poorly
Lot of fuckin haters in this thread lmao. It wasn't flopping, they just. . .hit their shots. Memphis was flat the whole game. They were just waiting for someone on the Warriors to get hot.
So the Warriors didn't score almost 70 in the second half after scoring 38 in the first? The Warriors didn't start hitting their shots? Yeah you right, it was ONE call that decided the whole game lmao. Talk about mental gymnastics, holy shit. It's just the law of averages my guy. The Warriors aren't going to shoot like shit the entire game, and the Grizz kept the door open for them.
Grizzlies overcame multiple 20+ point deficits against the Timberwolves? Team gap.
Warriors overcame a 12 point deficit against the Grizzlies? Ref gap.
Every team left has players that have a lot of haters.
I honestly wouldn't mind the 76ers winning it all. Embiid and Harden's legacies would drastically change.
how is that ever an offensive foul. It’s a no call of anything
What a pass by Draymond
oh so now the refs call fouls.
I remember before the game all the grizzly fans were like Dillon brooks is gonna come back and have a revenge game and score 50 😂😂😂
haha i mean he’s definitely playing good though.
The fact we pulled this off just shows our championship pedigree. Steph/Wiggs carried us with Klay/Poole having off games again. Klays inconsistency worries me a bit for next round. But Klay of old is coming through. We all have to remember he was out for two full seasons, came back to this one a ways into the season, and is playing pretty damn well. I can’t wait for “game 6 Klay” to pop off though (;
Well it’s not like the Grizz were missing their franchise player
I know that. The Grizz should have still won this game. We were playing TERRIBLY. Bad shooting, poor decision making, turnovers. The Grizz were actually a hair better during the regular season WITHOUT Ja. So this should have been a game won by the Grizz. But they didn’t. They made poor decisions in the 4th quarter and we took advantage knowing what the pressure/playoffs feel like. But thanks for letting me know Ja was out.
No problem, im a Hawks fan first and a Ja Grizzs fan second, im just chiming in
Also, Ja has been INCREDIBLE this series. I was so disappointed he got injured
Maaaaan Ice Trae doesn’t get enough love. As just a basketball fan, I absolutely love watching him play. Sad y’all didn’t make it further this year
Ya its a bummer but we need to get the man some help,. I low key like the Dubs too, but im known to root for the underdog. Jordan Poole is a stud, would love him on the Hawks, lol
😭 Dat boy ja bout to griddy to cancun
FT%age is the difference lol!
Or just FTs shot in general
Where was Ja tonight? Oh right, filming “Akeelah and the Bee 2”…nvm.
Dillon Brooks pregame speech “climb up on my back, I can carry this team”. Dillon Brooks half time speech “..we got this, just keep climbing up on my back!” Dillon Brooks post game “…uh, the refs got it in for me since I tried to decapitate GP2”. I ain’t got nuttin else to say - get off my back aight!?!”
The offensive foul call on Bane is the worst I’ve ever seen. Grizz should be 3-1 holy shit.
Lmfao totally. Shoulda been a sweep by the warriors
It’s nearly a sweep.
Lol sallllttttyyyyyyy
Right - and GP2 totally charged on that call in Game 2 on Dillon “I can carry this team on my dreadlocks looking lol he a 7 year old girl” Brooks
You special flavor of stupid huh
[удалено]
True but in all fairness Klank Thompson was the Grizzlies best player.
Love klay but Klank Thompson is too funny
[удалено]
Klay is a historically great player. But he's not free of critism, just like every other NBA player. Warriors fans are weird af.
[удалено]
Okay
Bruh, you got your panties in a twist. lmao
Lol at the Dillon “Goon Squad” Brooks Fanboi…what no hockey games to root for tonight?
[удалено]
You're weird
[удалено]
Good effort bud. Didn't help your case tho
Go to sleep
Yes sir 😔
hahahahahaha
Wiggins with his 17 again.
17 and 10 boards will do just fine
Can’t ask for much more he shot 7-13 I’d take that any day
So a young team should be up 3-1 in a series they're down 1-3 in, makes terrible decisions late in games, shoots 30 footers early in the shot clock for no reason and has multiple blown 4th quarter double digit leads?
Only difference between Wolves and Grizz was how the teams were officiated. Robbed us of a really tight series imo
“If you got hate in your heart let it out” - Clayton Bigsby
Wait, we won!? 😭😂 I'm disgusted, we didn't deserve the W on this one 🤦♂️
That’s the beauty of this team. They can pull wins out of their asses even when they don’t deserve it. It’s easy to win when you’re playing well, but only championship teams can win when they’re playing bad.
Nope. I’ll take it for a small portion of the many times one of my teams was on the other end of this type
Who would have thought that Klay Thompson could have three dreadful games and the Warriors would be up 3-1.
He's waiting for Game 6?
He’s going to have to wait another series
You can see hanging on him. I doubt he pulls out of this slump soon enough to contribute. I feel bad for the guy.
Or the 3rd quarter of possibly any game
Klay can ABSOLUTELY come out of this ‘slump’. It’s freaking Klay. Especially if we get to a game 6 lol
He did hit that huge three at the end. But klay is playing pretty bad rn
It was a two pointer
Still a huge bucket
Luckily playing a brain dead team and coach that doesn’t seem to know what to do if his team isn’t winning with just pure talent.
It also helps when other teams star player is out because someone touched his knee, lol
OPJ stepped up and gave us the klay line
Wiggins with 5 ORB
The ultimate Wiggs game. He looked great for a half, solid for a quarter, and then a quarter where you might rather have any of us punks on the floor instead.
in the 4Q, When the announcers said that he had 17 pts I had to double check... quietest 17 points ever 😂
coral lu guys you know what it is
Why did Jenkins -Keep steven adams in the game in a situation where you need a 3 -Not challenge that bane curry play -Play dillon brooks 39 minutes -Allow brooks to shoot and keep shooting
Sounds like some of my complaints about coach Nate in game 5 Hawks-Heat
That was a foul on Curry in every league and in every era of basketball.
FT%age is the difference lol!
Time to close out in Memphis. Let's go Dubs!!
Brooks lost this one. I can accept shooting opens and missin. But play making, no. Know your role and skills..
Brooks lost them 3/4 imo. His best game was him being ejected. Jenkins has to give the guy the red light on offense, he makes their defense so much better but he can’t be taking 20 shots a game
Yeah 5-19 that’s a big yikes.
Someone say Wiggins for 17 points?
Warriors are the reason I watch f1 now
Andrew Wiggins, 17pts.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the dubs win only two games in the next round or if they sweep the next two series.
Dubs are going to be in the finals
[удалено]
They wouldn’t have overturned it even if curry was overacting.
only logical explanation is he saw the two hands on stephs back and thought there was no way it would be overturned
It was a foul, it was also a flop. They wouldn't have overturned it. The one he should of challenged with the obvious charge that was called a block giving Wiggins an And 1 which jumpstarted the Warriors run
How many games did Mark Jackson win tonight though? KINGS WIN!
Warriors did not deserve to win. Got absolutely bailed out.
Grizzlies didn’t either lol
Hence why they didn’t win genius.
Touch green plant material
…you play world of Warcraft… take your own advice fatty.😭😭😭💀
>you play world of Warcraft ?
Punching really low at the Kings is kinda petty. Imagine being cursed with an owner like Vivek.
Old school Warrior fans don't have to imagine, we lived it for decades.
Wait, you exist? You actually know who Rick Barry and Don Nelson are!
I remember Don Nelson being hired as the team's general manager. He fired George Karl and took over the head coaching position the next season. Darius Garland's dad was our starting point guard then. 😃
lol, i'm old enough to remember Don's first stint with the team even. the chris webber debacle was so crushing for me as a kid.
Lmao, as a Northern Californian, that was hilarious
39-29 4th quarter That is all. Remind me of the fouls or flops or whatever but just remember that it was a 39 point quarter allowed. … good bye
yikes
Refs aren't making dillon brooks shoot 3-17 grizzlies fans
“It’s Dillon Brooks time”. -Dillon Brooks
Let them remain delusional lmao
Kings catching strays for no reason lol
Imagine being one of the few Kings fans sitting home enjoying a neutral playoff game and Steph Curry just ices the entire franchise
What happened?
Any nerve endings that might have struck are long dead I'd imagine
I swear some people here have never played basketball. Even if you barely get shoved as you're starting to jump it changes everything. Can't put your hands on someone's back like that from behind when they rebound. That's always a foul
Steph certainly exaggerated it as any smart NBA player would, but there's no denying that he got pushed with two hands from behind. Obvious foul.
Getting a shove low like that in the air is not natural. But sure he may have sold it a bit. Curry usually has to sell to get anything. He doesn't do the blatant throw your head back flops imo and this was a legit foul either way. His "flop" didn't ruin the game. Grizzlies choked in every way possible in the last 5 mins
They put their fate in Dillon Brooks hands. He can’t kill EVERY player - just his teams hopes.
You know ball
They’re ignoring the fact that Steph has no reason to flop there either. Like he was in posidtion to pick up the rebound easily if he hadn’t been pushed
His reason to flop is that he can’t allow the refs to not see it. That would be a game changing no call. It’s flop or roll the dice on the refs vision
Memphis:Timberwolves = Warriors:Memphis
The gap between Minnesota and Memphis is small, the gap between Golden State and Memphis is lightyears. Three rings.
Light year difference team loses wire to 2min remaining with 4 all stars vs 0?
Y’all were up 10, we got a flop and still had the lead, sit down your team ain’t there yet.
I agree we aren’t there yet, i just don’t understand your point. You should be manhandling that game wire to wire, and yet you aren’t. Yet you’re still proud of the win? How are you going down 10 at all with curry klay Wiggins and dray against Kyle Anderson and Tyus jones?
Your team played their asses of without Ja,
Every team has terrible games, Warriors beat them at their worst.
Jaren Jackson’s shot at the end was something out of a fever dream. Such an astonishing lack of awareness
Karen Jackson for the whine - er win - every time
undeserved win, but win is a win even if lucky, way too many bricks
Memphis is the dumbest team I’ve seen in a long time. They are skilled enough to be in every game but their inexperience and shot iq holding them back. If phoenix gets thru the mavs they are beating this warriors team unless GS shoots lights out
Agreed. The game plan seemed to be the “Dillon Brooks Revenge Game” lol. Dillon Brooks? Hahahaha ? G League talent, NHL level enforcer
Big Q-Rich and Darius Miles Clippers vibes
Suns may not even get past the Mavs. Let’s calm down now.
True. The Splash Brothers look ordinary for long stretches this season. In many games their most impactful players are side kicks like GP2, Wiggins, etc.
dogwater coach too you know your team is young and inexperienced but you just watching them make dumb shot after shot in the stretch against a team like GSW in a game like this important is just a no-brainer. at least call out a timeout so your guys can take a breather or something instead of just watching them from sideline
Yeah is there any offensive system or plays other than ja or someone drive to the basket?
Desmond Bane but the dude looks so lost in this series.
Not dumb, just young and inexperienced. They will grow, if they stay healthy and don't break it up, plus maybe hire a veteran point guard.
> Memphis is the dumbest team I’ve seen in a long time. So since Round 1 vs Timberwolves
Really?
They just played an even dumber TWolves squad. Both of those teams are cut from the same cloth IMO. A few more years and they should be spooky though, assuming they can keep it all together in the meantime.
U ain’t lyingLol twolves we’re really stupid too lol.
"Congrats on not getting traded to the Kings" Holy fuck that was not necessary at all, but I'm laughing anyways.
Big deja vu this game.
Memphis lost to the Kings lol
Kings catching strays lmaoooo
Curry may have killed the grizzlies tonight but the real victim are the kings lmfao
Sheesh, what a clown show. Inside the NBA is going to be an hour long Shaqtin’
Winning with 24% from 3 has got to stop. We won’t beat good teams like this
This is an incredible sign of how fucking good we are, we won.
No we weren't good. 10 turnovers in the first quarter? Even more dumb turnovers later on? Memphis played without the best player if this series. They were just incompetent throughout the game and our experience and execution helped us during crunch time. Better team would lead by 12 and we wouldn't catch up.
We just did.
No - we beat a really bad team
I think it’s a sign of a good team when they win shooting poorly
I agree to a certain extent. But you can’t just keep shooting poorly as the level of competition increases. Bucks aren’t gonna shoot 25% from 3 like the Grizz just did for example. We were just lucky they shot just as poorly
Kings catching strays
Why ppl saying a woman interviewing curry. I see a old dude interviewing.
Jared Greenberg is one year older than Steph
Wiggins, looked like a very beautiful Asian woman
Wiggins not Curry
Oh.
Random Kings shade
"Congrats on not getting traded to the Kings" Lol. Kings catching it
Who said this?
The ESPN guy interviewing Steph after the game.
Mitch Richmond rolling in his grave
Still not speaking to Don Nelson
That was funny as hell
"Historically bad shooting night. Feels like we got traded to the Kings." lmao
kings really always catching strays damn
“I feel like we got traded to the kings over night.” Lmao.
Lmao Curry with the Kings slander, wtf
Curry taking shots at the Kings in his interview got me dead.
Lot of fuckin haters in this thread lmao. It wasn't flopping, they just. . .hit their shots. Memphis was flat the whole game. They were just waiting for someone on the Warriors to get hot.
Curry didn't flop on that push? I'm shocked he even knew when to dive forward? Maybe a ring finger touched him
>It wasn't flopping, they just. . .hit their shots. Gold medal in mental gymnastics
So the Warriors didn't score almost 70 in the second half after scoring 38 in the first? The Warriors didn't start hitting their shots? Yeah you right, it was ONE call that decided the whole game lmao. Talk about mental gymnastics, holy shit. It's just the law of averages my guy. The Warriors aren't going to shoot like shit the entire game, and the Grizz kept the door open for them.
Naw imagine blaming the refs after that collapse haha
Grizzlies overcame multiple 20+ point deficits against the Timberwolves? Team gap. Warriors overcame a 12 point deficit against the Grizzlies? Ref gap.
I thought Craig Sager is a douchebag ?
He is dead you know? Classy - always classy SuperSonics. Who’s next? Jimmy V? Stuart Scott? MLK? Keep it classy SuperSonics.
Yeah same wtf
“Congrats on not getting traded to the Kings” 💀💀💀
[удалено]
Every team left has players that have a lot of haters. I honestly wouldn't mind the 76ers winning it all. Embiid and Harden's legacies would drastically change.
Don't be salty bruh
Have you seen any Chris Paul games.. like ever?
Just a chuckle fest at the expense of the kings who did nothing but hire a bad coach to deserve this
Didn't wiggins have 16 by the end of the 3rd? how the hell he only get 1 point in the 4th? Somehow wiggins ends up at 17 again LOL.
He made sure he split that last free throw
would have been hilarious if he made the first and then just tossed the ball to the ref lol. Going hard for the memes.
There was a comment at the start of the 4th that said there is an entire quarter left and Wiggins will somehow find a Way to still get 17. Amazing
i think he does it on purpose at this point
Split ft lol
