hello friends it's the 2018 NBA Playoffs, a place where dreams GO 2 DIE

kerr seems confused that his shit isn't working which is not a good sign

my friends, we have now pivoted

it’s heat of the moment stuff but kerr kept a timeout in his pocket as the dubs hacked up their final possession in game 4 and then kept them from advancing the ball tonight... those are just boneheaded decisions by the coach

the shots of kerr fake laughing/smiling (masking panic) on the bench as warriors had bad possession after bad possession

Amongst many xp

developing opinion--kerr is way too in the moment to be an elite coach. he gets emotional at weird times and isn't good at being a balance for his players.

brad would eat kerr alive in a long series

if the dubs lose and they don't fire kerr it's ... idk man

like how does this team not make it to the finals

injuries. and repeating is hard. i mean who do you replace kerr with? this is dumb.

kerr is one of the most successful coaches in NBA history. dont fire the guy for missing the finals the first time in his career of 4 years.

Fire Kerr campaign is only half jokes but what he really misses is Gentry in his ear. Not running high pick n roll when it matters and still not knowing which lineups are his best...

there are other problems with the warriors but i'm thinking that kerr might have run his course with them. he's not special as a tactician and i don't think it's crazy to wonder if he's healthy enough to be a head coach.

Their bench had........ 4 points

right, the thing that should start getting widely discussed is that they've done a horrific job with the margins of their roster

agreed Kerr should be fired, think Golden State could maybe trade him for Thibs they need a little tenacity

prob important to note that this series is not technically over

yeah their roster construction is getting exposed with the iggy injury

Whodathunk 8 Center’s was a bad idea?

i suppose some people would have asked for Pops to be fired after the 2004 conference semifinals loss to the lakers

they literally don’t have another wing. livingston is kinda one on d but is basically a PF on offense. nick young didn’t play tonight. quinn cook was in the d league last year. jordan bell and looney can’t play in crunch time.

up 3-2 is like an 80+% win expectancy iirc. cp3 injury is massive of course but it didn't affect this game in which the warriors were really exposed.

if the warriors merely have gerald green they probably win tonight

that was always gonna be the case though, the weakness of a frontloaded roster is injury

the celtics lost 2 of their 3 best players and run 7 deep in a way that the warriors don't

mccaw injury is bad too. he was worth a solid 15 minutes a game in the finals last year.

the rockets are also just really good they deserve a lot of credit here.

you guys are going to make me root for Kerr and the Warriors stop it

guards and bigs suck

i love kerr hes great at managing egos

nick young doesn't know where to play on the floor and omri casspi was hated by the organization to the extent that he got waived. it's not our job to know those things but it is bob myers' job iirc

i do think it’s possible kerr retires

i would’ve played nick young tonight personally... i don’t think quinn is better than him

Kevin Durant:
-Game 4 = 9-for-24 (37.5 percent = worst playoff % with the Warriors)
-Game 5 = 8-for-22 (36.4 percent = worst playoff % with the Warriors)

and everything looks off balance. also just really poor effort on loose balls and moving off ball. him and curry both deferring way too much in the snd half. curry just needs to take over thats when theyre at their best

they loved casspi but he didnt want to shoot for whatever reason.

kerr on the podium talking about how kd post ups are a great option

i'm honing in on the problem with the warriors--they think they're much better than they are

yeah i was thinking during the last couple games they often seem to play like they just need to get to the buzzer and then they get the W no matter the score

^^^^yes this

their nonchalance with the ball is pretty cocky

They just have never been that clutch, other than KD. They're fine when they're blowing out another team, but when it's close...

this kills me and has always been their achilles heel. and when you have no margin for error like this it's just infuriating. that draymond pass to harden for a dunk may haunt me forever.

in the first half tonight they were throwing ahead passes in semi-transition like it was february game against the kings

yup

they think they're great at that stuff! and in the meantime they have one actual ballhandler who is fragile and 30 years old.

Boston vs Houston finals would be so nice

kd has looked so off idgi. curry is outrebounding him this series.

xp

Yesssssssss

rockets-celtics would be competitive but gross i think
