do think they will have to change their offense drastically tho as steph is so central to what they do and hes so singular, like they cant be relying on both pnr defenders to jump out on the ball handler w/o him
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 19:54 (ten years ago)
obvs they do have non steph plays but u know
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 19:55 (ten years ago)
i think the warriors have a stable enough system and smart enough players to ultimately manufacture enough offense to beat the clippers w/o steph
― J0rdan S., Monday, 25 April 2016 19:58 (ten years ago)
possible but unlikely imho
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 19:58 (ten years ago)
if he comes back at 70% w the dubs down 2-1 u cld be talkin tho
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 19:59 (ten years ago)
basically i think each team could win one road game which means warriors would win in 7
― J0rdan S., Monday, 25 April 2016 20:00 (ten years ago)
it would depend on when steph came back for sure
― k3vin k., Monday, 25 April 2016 20:09 (ten years ago)
espn says that curry will be "re-evaluated in two weeks". To me that means he'll be out longer than two weeks. Usually you don't re-evaluate a dude and then stick him in the lineup later that day. I think he'll miss the whole clips series.

cld be but also sometimes guys r just all heeey im back after a few days and everyones all "what"
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 20:12 (ten years ago)
basically steph shd become the juiceman is what im saying
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 20:13 (ten years ago)
two weeks is plenty of time to go to germany or miami or any number of places.

no i think the warriors could just straight up beat the clippers sans stef
― J0rdan S., Monday, 25 April 2016 20:18 (ten years ago)
yeah they do some mystical regenerative shit with stem cells these days

I don't think the warriors should deliberately stretch their series out to seven games. That's flirting too much with fate, even against the currently garbage rockets. You just don't want to give an opponent that much life in the playoffs.

how about to six
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 20:24 (ten years ago)
they won't xp. i think they will just hope the other series goes the distance. i like how we are all talking like the clippers have it in the bag :0
― Better Pau Gasol (Spottie), Monday, 25 April 2016 20:24 (ten years ago)
anythings possible but the clips p much have been wildly outplaying the blaze so far
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 20:26 (ten years ago)
new ASSERTIVE blazers will prevail. I hope.
― a little too mature to be cute (Aimless), Monday, 25 April 2016 20:28 (ten years ago)
imo each team should have a DJ (Designated Juicer)
― 龜, Monday, 25 April 2016 20:28 (ten years ago)
dont think a team that has aminu jacking 8 3s a game can win a series, it might even be against the law
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 20:29 (ten years ago)
if the blazers don't win tonight it's gonna be over in 5
― J0rdan S., Monday, 25 April 2016 20:29 (ten years ago)
yup
prob the best case scenario for the warriors is that the blazers take it 6

they could but it is unlikely
― k3vin k., Monday, 25 April 2016 20:34 (ten years ago)
i mean you wouldn't bet money on them even odds, would you? things would have to go their way, they're not enormous underdogs, but they're def underdogs
― k3vin k., Monday, 25 April 2016 20:35 (ten years ago)
agree everyone more or less
― Better Pau Gasol (Spottie), Monday, 25 April 2016 20:37 (ten years ago)
blazers barely won that last one with Dame and 3J both playing pretty well.

have to account for the... ewing theory... hehe

Clippers bench has been weirdly good lately. not sure whether to believe in it or not?
― Better Pau Gasol (Spottie), Monday, 25 April 2016 20:38 (ten years ago)
personally im gonna go ahead and not believe in it
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 20:39 (ten years ago)
tho a bad bench going on a hot run is the kind of thing that can swing a whole offs

― Better Pau Gasol (Spottie), Monday, 25 April 2016 20:42 (ten years ago)
the aminu jacking 3s issue needs to be addressed, but the Stotts Collective probably have some yet to be tried lineups they can throw out to see if they stick. it's the offs and you have to try with everything you got. except connaughton.
― a little too mature to be cute (Aimless), Monday, 25 April 2016 20:44 (ten years ago)
like even just marcus smart suddenly discovering the concept of shot selection cld raise the celtics ceiling considerably
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 20:44 (ten years ago)
i am p pumped for dubs/clips (if it comes to that). If they could somehow pull it off sans curry i think it would be a major f u to the whole they-got-lucky brigade. as if 73-9 wasn't enough tho. also an f u to chuck which is always fun.
― Better Pau Gasol (Spottie), Monday, 25 April 2016 20:50 (ten years ago)
watched that boston game way late last night, that was a great performance man, those layups by IT and Jonas and Smart taking turns hitting shots. fun game
― Better Pau Gasol (Spottie), Monday, 25 April 2016 20:51 (ten years ago)
last two atl-bos games have redeemed the 1st round
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 20:52 (ten years ago)
i would bet the warriors at even money yes!!!! the warriors have a major home court advantage
― J0rdan S., Monday, 25 April 2016 20:57 (ten years ago)
youll prob have an opportunity to make that bet plus some
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 21:01 (ten years ago)
the warriors got outscored with curry off the floor this year
― k3vin k., Monday, 25 April 2016 21:14 (ten years ago)
they played so much garbage time tho
― lag∞n, Monday, 25 April 2016 21:15 (ten years ago)
when curry was off the floor so was green, for the most part.

minutes played when steph is active for a game but on the bench are entirely different than games in which he doesn't play at all
― J0rdan S., Monday, 25 April 2016 21:19 (ten years ago)
no xp
