    KD and Klay are struggling shooting the 3, wouldn’t surprise me if they get it going this game lol
    Isn't that like gambler's fallacy? Not that they won't get it going, Durant hasn't shot this poorly since his rookie season and Klay has never shot this poorly, so there will be regression to their talent level sooner than later.

    But they're not getting nearly as many good looks without Curry's passing and gravity. So, yeah, one or both could get hot, but I wouldn't bet money on it happening today.
    If we knew half as much about coaching an NBA team as we think, we"d know twice as much as we do.

      1. The Warriors Are Regressing to the Middle
      2. Kawhi’s Path to MVP May Be With the Pass
      3. Pascal Siakam, Hustle-Belt Holder
      4. Three Bigs Are Equal to None
      5. Is Golden State’s Offense Down to Boogie?
      6. A Blueprint for Fultz? Be Like Livingston.
      7. Fred VanVleet Is Everywhere on Defense
      8. Is Toronto for Real?

          Thats like saying the Bucks are the worst team in the NBA because they lost to the Suns.
          Yup, if the Bucks play the Suns in the Finals this year, the Bucks are toast.

              No, I'm quite serious.

              Logic: The Warriors are without 2 of their key MVP/All-Star players. Therefore, if the Raptors lose to this butchered team, it's safe to assume that they won't beat em' when they're fully assembled and in a 7 Game Series.

              Disagreeing with this is ludacris.

              So neither team can get better/worse or injured/healthy or make trades or mature or ..... the results of the post season are dictated by a single game in November??? YOU WERE SERIOUS?

                LOL, what? So, if the Raptors lose a single late November game, they will definitely lose in a 7 game series? If the Warriors catch fire in this game, and Lowry and Leonard go 0-for-20 from three, and the Raptors lose by 1, they have no hope in the playoffs?

                Wanna guess what Cleveland's record was against the Warriors in 15-16?

                Holy hannah, how is this a conversation.
                No doubt, the way they lose should be given some consideration.

                However, the mere possibility of them losing to this team whose without their MVP and an All-Star, should let us know where they stand.

                A Championship calibre team would trample an MVP-less/All-Star-less opponent. If they don't, then they're not Championship calibre. Simple.

                      Championship caliber teams don't go undefeated during regular season. This is ridiculous

                          • Smitch has set the bar high for his team. He demands perfection. That's just good coaching, right there.
