    The Warriors will be fine ... they are still in the process of figuring things out and trying this or that. When motivated, they are still by far the most dangerous team in the NBA.

    The idea that Draymond is going to implode the team is something that I think is a popular opinion but I'm just not sure about it. I can see where people think that he's a grading personality and whatnot but he's really the glue that holds the team together. I've heard people claim that he's "fake tough" ... I'm not sure I would want to piss him off ... he's a bit of a throw back to me.

    As for the stuff that went down this weekend between Draymond and Durant, I would be shocked if it was a long term issue. I doubt Durant's had anybody get in his face over the years outside of Westbrook and when he did it he basically told him to fuck off. In the situation that Durant's in now, he doesn't hold the "I've done it better than you " card that he has held in the past. From time to time everybody needs someone to jump on their ass and call them out when they aren't into it or whatnot even if that means getting somebody's anger directed at you. Personally, I think Durant plays a lot better when he has a mission and something to prove to people. Draymond likely saw that Durant was flat, pushed some buttons, and is likely working to figure out what buttons to and not to push in the future in similar circumstances. It's part of learning to work with teammates.

    I remember this post when the Cavs had crawled back to 3-3

    As I said at the time, congrats to Cleveland for coming back from 3-1 down. Green suspended for Game 5 and then Bogut's injury swung the series. I still firmly believe that if you play that series 10 times Golden State probably wins it 7 or 8 out of those 10 times.

    The Warriors are the favorites. I don't think they will lose, I just want them too because it would be entertaining.

    Kawhi Leonard

    I still don't trust Kawhi to get buckets down the stretch of playoff games.

    When the Spurs need a basket are they going to Kawhi or Pau?

    Pau will be lucky to be in the game during crunch time. They still have Aldridge and Parker.

    Leonard is the guy.
