It could have worked if the Cavs would have stuck with their guns, but they conformed to GS game instead of sticking with their own. plus the Cavs blew 1 or two winnable games at the last minute of the series.

Wait a min, bogut didn't play either? And GS had a solid chance to win and niggas in here giving props to the spurs
Ninja that second go round with the Spurs heat it was nothing to talk about Heat lost 5-1 ain't nothing to talk about they got their asses whooped....
No. Thats the thing. No one is giving props to the spurs. Pleas are being copped. And niggas talking stupid shit like "Bogut aint play either"... Like hes anything other than a check cashing bum. We just laughing at the bullshit.Wait a min, bogut didn't play either? And GS had a solid chance to win and niggas in here giving props to the spurs
Keep going tho. Tell us about "Ezile" next.
I'm not talking about that one. You're right there is nothing to say about that, just the first match up.
Ok sir since u luv the spurs what are u willing to bet that if they meet GS,in the playoffs, they ain't winning shit? I'll wait...Frye was actually a good grab tho. But yea, it's a issue when you still defining roles.
Nigga copping pleas from the donut shop the next morning.

But it went the other way.
Thats me explaining it to you while you working your nite gig.
There you niggas go again... talking about everything but that ass kick from last nite. Lets stay in the present shall we? GS got that L didnt they? Steph look like shit did he not??
First match up was a classic series what is there to say? They were evenly matched up.. Had each other on the ropes until Ray Allen snatched the soul from them
Pleas ain't being copped, Spurs are "that good" they should have easily won that game..but they didn't that's all niggas saying
"Ass kicked"right
When you catch a Golden State team on a back to back that is short handed plus having a off shooting night with Curry playing one of his worse games...yes you should have smashed them at home.
This game came down to the wire and this is not a good look for the Spurs. How you win games tells you alot about your team. Last night again showed that Golden State is in another league and everyone is playing catch up.
If I was the Spurs I would be concerned. Just like the first game GSW limited the Spurs on offense. If GSW simply scores their average they win by 20. This is two games in a row that the Spurs could not generate offense against the Warriors and that should be a concern.
Your logic is sound but it does not apply when you are chasing a team. Pop understands this well because he even changed his line ups for this one game. He knew how important this was to play well and they still didn't.
No. What they are doing is making every lame excuse in the book to discount the win. The L stands man. Everything else is white noise. Take the L. Stfu.
I wouldn't be. Your points are mitigated by the fact that the Spurs had almost as twice as many turnovers. That's the only reason they kept the game close. But they were able to shut down Curry in the 4th.
Bruh, you acting GS is a bum team though, lol. They ain't lost 7 games on no fluke ish. Why are kats in here saying they should have got their ass whipped? No, theyre a great team that is defending a title. They are not going to lay down just because they were short handed on a back to back. They did what I expect a championship team to do, which is play to the last second and give your chance to win. They did that and lost. Chalk it up. The only thing I took from that game last night is that the gap is closer for the 1 spot in the west. That's it.
Pop understands that he can't out score that team when it is in the 100s. I've been saying all season you ain't going to beat GS playing their style. You have to win playing yours. Coaches don't approach games saying we going to play the other teams styles. Good teams force you to play theirs.
No one's taking the L away its just not that big of a deal. ..GS not winning every game but let's not get carried away with this game; Spurs should have dominated this game; they didnt period..
the numbers don't support that though. the spurs outscored the warriors by 4 points in the paint. all that shit aldridge was doing and they only outscored them by 4. so once again the entire they can only shoot jumpers myth just isn't true. they always score loads of points in the paint.
like i said, they just both had an off night and that's happened to them before during the season. this proves all they need is 1 person to be on and you better hope BOTH of them are off which isn't THAT likely.
They're extremely versatile offensively lol. how aren't they versatile offensively looking at those stats? No 3s dropping and still had 24 assists. had 24 assists and only 11 turnovers spurs had less assists and more turnovers golden state had 12 steals.
free throws were the difference in the game and rebounding was the difference in the game last night. but the idea that they're not versatile offensively is just downright untrue fam. plan b last night was curry to the rim which he did but his touch was off so he was missing layups. and klay thompson posting up which he did effectively but it was just a tad too late.
rebounding and free throws. and hitting some of those open 3's that they missed that they usually make. high percentage regular 3s not off the dribble from 90 feet ones.
yea he finding lebron don't really fuck with him like he thought he did lol
Clearly its a big deal. If it wasnt we wouldnt have pages of you niggas telling us it isnt.
Eh I don't care about injuries. I'm looking at the game that it was.
They just missed shots. BOTH TEAMS played great defense. They made more free throws and did great on rebounding.
its really pages of you and others saying dumb shit..and getting all happy over a very lackluster win by the spurs...
The warriors aren't getting credit for the defense they played last night as well.
Spurs average over 100 and usually blow people ass out especially at home. Warriors forced more turnovers and got double digit steals against the spurs last night
The difference was rebounding (14 offfensive) and free throws.
Isn't that called good defense though?
If the spurs had forced twice as many turnovers nobody would be saying, well that kinda helped them they'd say that's great defense and they forced those turnovers right? They were able to keep the game close because the spurs could only make 8 3's got the ball stolen 12 times and only outscored them in the paint by 4 points.
Nah. Its filled with clowns such as yourself trying to explain away loss. Shits entertaining tho.

The spurs style is scoring a load of points and playing tim duncan though. they switched that completely up specifically to play the warriors.
it was a good win and something both teams can look at.
Nah. First quarter they had 8 turnovers. 7 unforced. Warriors played good defense overall, but those turnovers were not a result of that defense.
That's the point. The game is what it is. None of the what ifs matter. Games are won differently. On to the next until they see each other again.
And to be all the way honest there is still some season and playoff series to go until they even meet each other on that level of play. Too much can happen in between.
I disagree I think they did great especially on the perimeter.
And if 7 were unforced where did 12 steals come from?
Parker and Mills were a non factor. Kawai didn't have his usually pretty dominant performance from driving and posting up.
down low is where they were hurt letting diaw get points and be effective and aldridge finally had a game that he was supposed to have.
Also the lane was open due to no rim protector in the game which the spurs rightly took advantage of but what killed the warriors last night were the rebounds. spurs got tons of 2nd chance points that sometimes led to timely 3s which were the difference.
spurs killed the boards completely.
Yea I'm not worried. I'm not used to the rejoicing in my team losing yet.
On bad defensive teams though. GS is not that. They play good defense. It's a chest match. The only two teams in the league that has multiple styles of play. Making adjustments only in the 2nd match up in regular season. Your homie Diaw was a solid adjustment for that style. But we know there will always be a counter until game 5, 6 and 7 when its all about the players and executing. Adjustments will have been made and counters exhausted.
Lol, at least you can admit that. But I understand. It's a new feeling, lol.
spurs are easy to defend; GS has no problem guarding them; Makes sense that they killed on the glass with no bigs and on back to back; amarcoup in here like
yeah the warriors lost
; nigga gonna be like 
win the warriors repeat...And with all the adjustments that they made, which by the way GS didnt make any, they still barely won; at home on a back end of back to back
...
No rebounds aka no rim protector... Bogut was needed that game
Umm steals dont negate or determine whether turnovers are forced or unforced. Dont work like that. The 8 turnovers in Q1 were mostly not forced.
And Parker played great defense man. Mills had a dam good game as well... Impact was outside of scoring.
