it must be a case of lowest common denominator. perhaps the average tv viewer watches less than 10 dubs games, and changes the channel when trailing by 10. so announcers are always repeating things we know, trying to sell us the game being within reach, and apologizing/explaining away anything a casual viewer might not like. more chit-chat, less detailed info.
How sweet it is. I was more worried about the SPURS than any of the teams; they've been playing great ball and been hitting 3s lights-out. Great TEAM GRAVITY win. Everyone played their role. PODZ/MOODY Excelled. WIGS was off, but won the last one for us. HOFMERS showed up. DRAY WAS MY WARRIOR WONDER. KLAY hit the Clutch 3. STEPH was STEPH. Freakin MAVs are going to be tough...

Udonis Haslem is 10x better than any of the ESPN commentators. Why do the dumbest / most annoying voices always get the most airtime?
Have you met the average sports fan?
The commentators merely reflect the demographics of the sport.
And whatever, include me as one of the dummies.

Mavs are definitely gonna be tough. Hopefully we are too.
OK, drum roll please. We barely beat the Spurs with three of their top four scorers out (Vassell, Johnson, Sochan).
Can you imagine how we'd play with Steph, JK, and Klay out?
Without Steph, Dray, and Klay we shoulda beat Minny with everybody (minus McDaniels)…
Luka had 47 points and Kyrie had 24 points against the Rockets tonight. Yikes.
Better them than us
Wiggs is gonna have to make up for his utterly shit effort tonight by going ‘22 WCF on Luka’s ass.
Good to see Kerr go away from him in the second half… when he’s off, he’s off
Hope Kuminga can play soon, we really need him (duh)
Yeah what IS the deal on that guy?
High water mark of the season! The rebirth of the Warriors! Happy Easter, everyone!
This is how you beat the Spurs. Take notes, Suns.
God, I hope not.
Mentally, we pretty much screwed the pooch on this one, beginning to end. We just got once-in-a-season Dray, and hot Steph.
Give the Spurs some credit- they are a way better team than earlier in the season, and Wemby is gonna rule this league eventually.
3 of their top 4 scorers didn't play. Long road trip, JK out, and so on, but this is a team we should have beaten fairly easily.
We also overcame utterly trash Wiggs and Klay games though (Klay’s Killer Klutch 3 at the end notwithstanding).
True. Just saying this was a one-time thing.
We got a little lucky.
We lost so many crunch time games not being lucky so… 🤷
32 points for Wemby tonight. 10/22 FGs, 3/10 threes, 9/10 FTs
Suck it, shrieking Spurs fan!!!
Can’t take wins there for granted
Tell that French mofo to eff off TJD
There's always one with no acoustic awareness
What the heck was Pop saying to GPII? Kinda looked like he was chewing him out.
It did, and it looked like Kerr was supporting/facilitating it
Draymond's best game of the season. We didn't beat them at full strength, but still a game to celebrate!
Pop giving some tough love to GP?
Telling him to stop contesting when up 4!
…and throwing the ball against the stanchion
Holy crap, GPII.
Dumbass try
That was close!
Wheeeeew and unclench. But GP2, why risk the contested 3?!?!
