I'm not even mad it took us till the 4th quarter to get any separation. We played incredible ball in the 3rd Q, too, with fantastic focus and effort on both ends ... the Thunder were just playing at an incredibly high level, led by a top 10-15 NBA superstar. Impressive tenacity by the good guys to keep pushing and not get frustrated after being continuously thwarted.
Could have started the game better, obviously, but a lot of that was annoying three point variance.
I think he'll get some minutes. It's not exactly a secret, but one of Kerr's weapons is to use a fairly long rotation in the playoffs and wear the other team out.
I think Warriors strategy was to take the Thunder's best punch in the first 2-3 quarters, then pounce on them when they have used up most of their energy.
Moody is a secret player simmering on the bench. He’ll be so worth it on his rookue extension contract. We limit his PT on purpose to keep his value low lol
Jordan Poole goes nuts. Warriors win! Please join the post-game thread because I wrote it from my phone at the bar: https://dubnationhq.com/p/post-game-party-thread-nellie-ball
That was a random ending that went our way. Woohoo!

Why are they interviewing Steph so long? Let a man go back to the locker room
And we're 3792-0 on home games when we're down big in the first half. I have to talk to my cardiologist.
It's gotten to the point where I WANT them down 10 at home after the 1st quarter
5th seed, baby!
celebrate this moment, feeling pretty good right now, 1 game winning streak!!!
Look at Quinones carrying the Dubs, while Steph can't even get in the game. Never thought I'd see it this soon.
E1P! E1P! E1P!
So did Moody earn minutes in the last 2 games or is he getting pushed back out of the rotation once Klay and Wiggins return?
Moody played well against Dallas last year in the WCF. I expect there will be a time he’s needed if we go deep.
Probably pushed back at least some because the rotation will be shortened but he sure did play well.
Moody for sure out of rotation when Klay and Wiggins back
Bruh I sort of forgot about Klay for a minute
😂
Yes
He earned minutes but won’t get them. At best, he might move ahead of #40 for spot minutes
Kerr undyingly loyal to Klay no matter what :(

Moody did play a fair amount in the playoffs last season, so I expect probably the same.
I mean, it is Klay after all
Or Klay is much much much better than moody.
Settle down rook. No TOs, no fouls.

Rope-a-dope FTW
Game ball to Poole!
i say moody - he gave us a real spark
He was good but Poole got us the win and broke out once again in the 4th.
Ty! We missed the elf-lord (I did, anyway).

Man PBJ looks tall
Now just needs some girth
