I’m sensing a level of false bravado in all of these Warriors press conferences. I’m not looking for the white flag here and I’m sure they’ll be better at home and I’m not calling the series by a long shot…but they aren’t “feeling us out”.

Warriors have worked extremely hard these first two games and got nothing. They have shot better than the Kings these first two games. They have executed their game plan as they said they wanted. Look at how the Kings shot from three tonight. Kings matched them for turnovers. Kings actually ended up losing the board tonight.

It’s really not a matter of a ball bouncing one way or the other. Kings look like they are a flat out tough matchup for them.

I also sense the Warriors are having a hard time keeping up physically. Kings are too fast for them but also matching or exceeding them with physical play. I don’t think they expected that. You see them out there huffing and puffing. They are looking like an old team. They only go on big runs when the Kings quick shoot and bail them out. Kings are wearing them out on both ends otherwise..and the Warriors dearth of solid reserves will only put more heat on Steph who the Kings have game planned well against.

Let’s just hope Domas wasn’t seriously injured,
Amen
 
Its like a Dream.
Mitchell on Staph Curry is the key to beating the Ws.
They held the Warriors to 106 points. The defense played great, the key to game 2.
Sabonis is a complete warrior.
The Kings went deep into their bench and everyone contributed.

Green reminds me of all the dirty players on the play ground that grab jerseys, throw elbows, push off, hook with their elbows and throw hips and then they say "It's just how I play." If Green is not suspended, then I want Len to follow him around and wear him out for a whole quarter. If Green continues his antics his is going to get smacked. It will probably not look intentional.

to be fair, he would have had to stretch his foot out 3 more inches to not land on his ribs. That’s an awful lot of ground to cover for someone with limited flexibility.
I legit laughed when he said he couldn't move his leg because of his limited flexibility. Bro, you're a damn NBA professional athlete, you're telling me you can't move your foot to the side 6 inches?

Remember when the Kings had a bunch of international players, that would always give bland "player speak" for the American media, and then go back to their home countries and get reckless (coughnocionicough)? I feel like Domas is going to do an interview for some Lithuanian publication in the offseason, where he blasts the s*** out of Draymond.
 
if anyone gets the chance here, download the Audacy app and listen to 95.7 out of the Bay Area. It’s nothing but complaining about the refs. The refs are horrible. They are letting the kings get away with everything. Domas pushes off almost every play. The refs put them behind the 8 ball with those quick 5 fouls to begin the 3rd. They are trying to give the kings their props but the complaining about the refs! It’s laughable!!
Of course... I get that to a degree as we would be doing the same thing on this board if the kings were losing. But I do find it humorous (but not surprising) that the team (and their fans) that's "been their before" is up to this point losing with such lack of grace. Domas is a physical player. We complain that he doesn't get calls, but he also dishes out a ton of punishment and the refs do at times give him some leeway, but the warriors are losing because they got outplayed the first two games.

oh the Dubs nation is 100% convinced the Kings are getting all the calls and its delicious.
 
I normally respect Steve Kerr but he should have taken draymond green off that court and into the locker room ASAP
Kerr lied about Green. No doubt in my mind. He was asked about what Green did to Sabonis and his response was he didn't see it because he was attending to coaching matters. BS. Not only did he not see it live, he made a point to say that he didn't see it on the Jumbotron. Sure, Kerr. One of your starters could possibly be ejected for this game and the series but you didn't happen to see it. BS BS BS. The Sgt Schultz, "I see nothing" excuse doesn't wash.
