TONIGHT 1/25 San Antonio vs Golden State

[Mr_Mark]

2 best records in the NBA. Warriors getting ALL of the attention when the Spurs are quietly right there with them

Spurs 38-6
Warriors 40-4

 

[Mr_Mark]

Appears Timmy is sitting out tonight

 

[HarryCaray]

Sitting on a Carolina +470 future from before the Seahawks game.

Probably going to be teasing things all week tied to Denver +8.5. First I want to go for a nice middle and second I actually like Denver in that game.

Spurs to +9 looked interesting but with Timmy out I'll probably tease GS down to pk. Should be a good game but it seems like GS hasn't lost a home game since the Clinton administration so hard to go against them.

Correction, Denver +10.5

 

[Defying]

I wish I liked SA guards more, but how do they handle Curry.Thompson idk. I know they rank #1 in defense but im not sure the range will be accounted for

SA has a tremendous advantage inside with West and Aldridge

IDK what to make of this game. but i'm intrigued

 

[Mr_Mark]

should be a great playoff series. I think everyone is expecting them to meet in the Conf Finals.
I would Imagine Leonard will be on Klay or Curry

 

[devocr]

I wish I liked SA guards more, but how do they handle Curry.

They will throw Parker, Leonard(reigning defensive player of the year), and Green at him and Clay.

Who will cover Leonard?

Should be a great game. Both teams feeling each other out.

GS -4.5

I don't really think the Spurs can stop them from getting their normal 30 3s up. Don't really see Leonard spending a ton of time on Curry either since it is just a regular season game. The Spurs never have treated any 1 game that importantly and I'd think GS would have a sense of urgency to get a win and go up 3 games for homecout.

Also with Duncan out, GS should be able to go the smallball lineup much easier and that lineup kills everyone if you can't beat it downlow.

Looks like we are the only two.

Yea, realized it now. Probably going to sleep instead - west coast games are just too late

Being on the west coast is great for watching sports. I don't see how you guys stay up 1am-2am watching a game. Plus I wouldn't be able to sleep if I had something on it.

So far in the 1st half Curry is getting defended well but that opens up lanes for this good passing GS team to get some wide-open dunks.

The second half should favor the Warriors as they continue to run against the old legs of the Spurs.

 

[PatsFan1283]

Yeah they've defended the 3 well but it just doesn't matter.

Against any other team it wouldn't matter much but vs GS having so many guys who really can only play 1 end tends to add up.

Manu, Parker, Mills, West and Diaw all really struggle on D vs this team. Whereas GS is loaded with 2way players.

Curry getting off some 3's now, even double-teamed.

 

[quantumleap]

One word: clinic

 

[PatsFan1283]

This is just 1 game and it doesn't mean a ton but it does show what the measuring stick is.

GS is a lot better than last year.

Good point. It's good to keep a game like this in perspective.

It's just that it's hard to look at the margin of victory and not think they would dominate any team in the league given a good spot in the schedule.
