Post game party thread: Gary Payton puts his mittens all over this one
Warriors take over in the 2nd half, put Hornets away

You can’t spell party without Gary Payton, and boy oh boy did he deliver in crunch time for the Golden State Warriors tonight. In a game that was close for the entire first half, their strong third quarter helped provide some breathing room before Payton came through in the fourth and sucked the life out of the Hornets. When he wasn’t stifling offense he was dunking or making sweet off-ball cuts.
As always, this is just a quick place for the community to gather. Our full (and totally awesome) game coverage will be back in full force tomorrow morning. For now, we party!
Absolutely smothering!
Who gets Warrior wonder? Payton for his electric bench role? Two way Wiggs for carrying the team on his shoulders through the 3rd quarter?

Re-watching third quarter. Dray may have scored few points but he contributed in more ways than just assisting and screening. On the play where belly has a sweet pass to GP2 under basket, Dray directed GP2 to go for backdoor cut.
