how the hell does Beverly grab 14 rebounds

extreme laziness... like such

Two problems here:
-Gallinari gets a wide open 3-pointer
-All five Warriors were in the paint, yet Beverley gets the tip-in pic.twitter.com/s7OUKGYWpe

An awkward exchange unfolded at Warriors practice Friday. Head coach Steve Kerr began addressing reporters near the court in the team's downtown Oakland practice facility, but Kerr quickly asked a Warriors PR official if the music thumping in the facility could be turned down so he could hear reporters' questions better and so reporters could hear his answers better. The Warriors PR official replied that the music was loud because forward Draymond Green, who was shooting on a nearby court, wanted it that way. (The Warriors PR official moved toward the volume switch and Green shouted to keep the music at the same level.) In the end, the music stayed at the same volume. A reporter then jokingly asked Kerr who was in charge. "Not me, obviously," he said. After the media session ended, Kerr told reporters, "Enjoy the music."

That's a sign of Kerr feeling secure in his position, not that Dray can run roughshod over Kerr whenever he likes.

Is this story from the future? It’s Thursday.

yes

theres video of that exchange. cant wait for the draymond kerr stories when this run is over.

Big honey is ballin. If Harris is good again then that makes the nugs a much different beast

p cool game

John Havlicek died. :(

big
honey

Jeez Barton is just doo doo most games.

rooting for game 7 baby

It’s gonna happen. 18 point game just like that yikes

kudos to spurs-nuggs and clippers for salvaging the 1st round

And dame

yeah true

Nugs bench 4/20 not gonna get it done. Wasted an all time Jokic game

at the very least the questions about whether jokic was playoff ready should be laid to rest

hes been great, lamarus lit him up tonight tho

tha nuggs went 4/20 huh sick

pop coming out super grumpy in this press conf despite just winning by 20 lol

so intense get him some nice burrata and pinot grigio

He needs to spend a summer with Nellie

opening bottles of fine wine, sharing them, and getting wiggy with it

hes been great, lamarus lit him up tonight tho

just watched a "full game highlights" youtube and jokic was actually fine on D, plumlee on the other had was getting absolutely targeted

Game 7 means the Blazers can rest, study film and be ready for either the Nuggets or Spurs after they beat each other up on Saturday.

was prob a lot to expect the nuggets to win twice in san antonio in 3 games after not winning once in 8 years or whatever it was

should be a good game 7

i personally enjoyed the NFL draft and the knowledge that the spurs lead had grown to 20

are you supposed to peel the rind off of the basketball before eating it?

clips still getting easy looks off the simplest of actions

me: gets easy looks off the simplest of actions
kevin durant: 38

lol

so trapping steph and sagging insanely far off dray/iggy is pretty much the way

iggy can make you pay for that, but not so much dray

draymond show in the house lol

im giving the clippers a standing ovation

i am steve ballmer and i am clapping with my son for these clippers

im steve ballmer and steve ballmers son and we are clapping and laughing, and now we are crying

I am the billionaire “steven ballmer” of Apple computers and I am purchasing all basketball teams and changing the name of the sport to ballmerball

this is me with the ball

that is all of us today

its us

Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson are both questionable for Game 1 tomorrow. Kerr called Thompson’s sprain “significant.”
