DITTO ON ''PHEW''. LOL. 32-32 = .500; STEPH with Scoring Title. 8 games left - with what we got left - gonna be tough. Mon/Tues, B2B, AWAY, vs Streaking PELS, critical to get a split; they have found their stride and have real inside-outside threat game. Dubs then take on THUNDER, 2 games over 3 days, THUR/SAT; need them both. THEN we got UTAH/PHOENIX, B2B, 10th/11th May; could go the other way, both days. We finish season with the PELS, again, on the 14th - they may be playing for a playoff spot by then- and the GRIZ on the 16th of May. Pray for no further injuries this 8-game stretch...gonna be real tough even without further injuries, no matter how you cut it.

Curry, bazemore, wiggins dray, looney, poole, lee, jta, paschall.

Wish we had another big, but come playoff time if we can get a little bit of rest, I'm confident in us to have some solid games.

Paschall could really be an X factor if he comes back fully healthy and playing good, I'm hoping kerr is analyzing all the ways he can use him as the small ball five for the second unit right now, he will definitely open up the pick n roll for poole and wiggins

Poole, lee, wiggins, jta, paschall is not a bad bench if properly coached, yes we will get killed on the boards but that unit should put up some numbers on offense and hold it down for the starters. I'm also excited to see more paschall with curry in pick n rolls and less EP isos

Nuggets are beating everyone except the Warriors

Starting to think that Oubre report was actually a leak from Oubre's camp. They want potential suitors in free agency to know that he's been playing hurt lately.

Perhaps I'm wrong but I don't think he's going to miss the rest of the season.

Fun fact - Denver has 2 losses in their last 11 games, both to the Warriors.

I think we just have their number. There is a very small chance that we end up as the 7 seed, and Denver catches Utah for the 2 seed.

Seems highly likely that the dubs will be battling Memphis for the 8 seed in the play-in, and that the last game of the season will decides who gets it. That actually an interesting outcome, because the 8 seed is way better than the 9 seed, since you have 2 chances to win one game. Tempting to get tickets...
