Depending on how the Utah game goes I truly believe we can rip 5 off to end the year. We played much better tonight but just got out executed by the best team in the league this year to end the game. The Jazz seems to be reeling, perfect opportunity to do a Freaky Friday switch and snatch their soul.
I am now 3-4 in my predictions so far. (Incorrect predictions for the vs. Spurs, @ Magic, @ Heat, and @ Wizards games, correct predictions for the @ Hawks, @ Grizzlies, and vs. Suns games) I predict that the Warriors will beat the Jazz this Saturday.
That looked a lot better. Way to snap out of it Day-Day. And that dribble hand off play to close out was a ridiculous call. That was the least creative ATO I've ever seen from Kerr. That's the stuff you pull off against inexperienced teams, not Pho. But we should all be pretty pleased with the energy they showed tonight.
The Dubs have got to simplify the plays at the end. Just get it to your best scorer out there (JP), and live with it. Instead, it's Draymond looking for OPJ to cut, who doesn't understand that and it's a turnover. Even Steph's game winner against Houston was a play for Wiggs first, but Otto knew he wasn't inbounding it to anyone but Steph for that last shot.
When Booker came into the league I remember they said his game looked a lot like Klay's. It sure did tonight. Two shooting guards going 5-21 each yikes.
The Suns know how to execute the end of games. The Warriors don't. The Dubs have lost their last 9 games that were decided by less than 10 points and are 18-19 on the season. The Suns are 32-7 and have won their last 5. It's probably a fair bit of luck, but it's also a huge Kerr weakness and something to monitor.

I know we lost but an E1P on Dray's D would be awesome
Such a weird coincidence how Chris Paul ends up on so many annoying teams.
Welcome 4th , play-ins, here we go!
Wiggins is going to have to prove himself to us again in the playoffs. I don't trust him one bit to end a game on either end

As frustrating as this game was at times, it’s good to know basketball can still be fun to watch.
When can we start the Poole extension process... need to lock him up asap before he plays himself out of our price range lol

We’ve had wins this year that have felt more loss-like than tonight’s loss lol. Encouraged by tonight’s game going fwd
