I will say this: I am glad Memphis is in the rear view mirror, I say that because they posed a serious threat to us. I actually kind of liked their swagger and confidence. This may not be a popular opinion on here, but I like Dillon Brooks. He plays tough and I don’t think he meant to hurt anyone. It all depends on how they come back from this, do they build and learn from this year or do they act as if it is their destiny to just roll through the league next year. It will be interesting to see. As for their coach, there are certainly things that I don’t like, but that is regarding things outside basketball. He is young so he might learn from this year as well. As for the Memphis media and the clearly racist comments coming from them- they need to held accountable, screw them and screw any half assed apology.

Dear Memphis: we beat you with Ja, we beat you without Ja. We beat you in tight games, we beat you in a blowout. We beat you at home, and on the road. We beat you playing super small, and playing up to your size. Please shut up now. Thank you. I'm looking at you, Dillon.

Probably an unpopular opinion but I don't like Poole stooping down to their level. We've seen Steph shimmy and Dray bark over the years after making plays but I don't care for these off court activities

Woke up this morning and immediately put on the Warriors remix of Big Steppin. It's shaping up to be a beautiful day.

Draymond came out different last night than the 2 games before. Not sure if it was his friends death or something else. But we need the real Draymond on the floor to be contenders. I hope he can stay locked in.

Wiggs on the other hand has been super consistent, was rebounding like a mad man and playing generally good basketball. But then they flashed his stats with 6 min left, and he already hit his quota of 18 points, and I thought, uh-oh, no more buckets from him. Glad Steph still wanted to score!

EA, I would love to see an E1P on Looney’s (Looney Looney) rebounding game

I think Wiggins was the toughest, most consistent player for the Dubs on both ends for the series. In the close games he played 41 tonight, 39 game 4, 38 game 2, and 34 game 1. in the blowouts he played 19 in game 5, and 26 in game 3.

He guarded every position. He rebounded like crazy. Must have been a crazy amount of energy to expend. Seems like they were playing chess with his minutes more then anyone else.

That darned Draymond. He had 14 points, 16 boards, and only 8 assists. No triple double. Trade him! In contrast, that walking triple double Russell Westbrick would have... lost the game!

I am glad coaching staff listens to Dray and Steph and not all of us here 😃. Pretty much all of us here said a big No-No to Dray and Loon to be on the floor at same time because everyone was worried about offense. Dray and Steph (THE offensive god) said "Nah B. Let's fix defense and rebounding and we will make adjustments on offensive end as needed". So

Dray+Steph : 1

DNHQ : 0

In hindsight, we loosing some RS games because Dray and Loon were on the floor at the same time turned out to be a good thing (they got alot of reps).

LGW!

I wish all the players would bring their kids to press conferences.

I just wanna say: all year I've said WCF was this teams floor and now here we are. I mean, 17 straight series wins against the west?!?! Easy prediction for me

I need a Warriors jersey which says "Embrace The Chaos". That may be the only mantra by which I will survive WCF and beyond.

Our TOVs almost always go down in second half. Could it be that even teams who are young and play passing lanes very well can't do so 4 quarters? So may be some of these TOVs which looks like chaos are result of a play style that is necessary.

I lost my voice. Fortunate enough to experience the game with my father.

Can't believe we're back in the conference finals. Let's gooo!
