All these 9:00 PM tipoffs are BS. Why does the fact that the Warriors are on the west coast mean our local fans have to have late starts for home games

Have to start my look at this series in panic mode because that’s just how we do.   With that in mind, is JB limping?  Very end of this video:

It'll be interesting to see what kind of defense they can draw up
Feels like on paper it should be a better matchup on that side than the Suns. Still so surprised that Ayton wasn't able to take more advantage inside.

Mavs in 6.  Mavs face the only finals opponent they've ever known for the third time.

Celtics would be a sexier matchup, yeh?

But I'd rather see the Heat because I don't think Butler and co. can beat us.

If I were a gambler, I'd bet on the Celtics, but the Heat just seem like our destiny.  Heat/Celtics is going to be a knock-down, drag-out fight war.   

The only downside to playing GSW is that I don't think there is going to be bulletin board material.  Draymond and Steph really respect Luka.

The Warriors don't have a big but I think they'll be a tougher matchup for us than the Suns. They can potentially put together a smallball lineup that can hang with our bread and butter small lineups that feature Maxi or DFS at center.

The questions for the Warriors are can they keep Luka from going supernova and most importantly, can they limit Brunson and Dinwiddie enough to make Luka a one man show? Can they keep our role players from raining 3s like we have against the Jazz and Suns? If they can then they have a very good chance.

For us, it's clear that our strategy in the playoffs is to spread the floor and let Luka, JB, and Dinwiddie choose their matchup by calling for a switch and then going to work. So the keys for us are finding matchups we can exploit. We won't be able to force a switch to get a big on Luka when we're going up against Draymond instead of Ayton, so we'll have to look elsewhere. I suspect we'll see Luka attacking Steph over and over and over this series. How good is Klay's defense since he's been back? How about Poole? There are some potential matchups we could exploit. On defense, we have to continue what we've been doing and run them off the 3 point line. If the Splash Brothers go off from 3, we could be in trouble.

I'm excited to see how it plays out!

Yeah hopefully we can get Luka matched up against Curry a lot.
I've just been amazed at how ineffective Draymond is on the offensive end in these playoffs. Really bogs everything down for them. They score in spite of him while his defense is so good he actually becomes a positive but man so bad on the offensive side now
Got to figure out some way to exploit that. I want him and Wiggins to be forced to beat us as much as possible.
Which Wiggins will be able to score a decent bit if he's the relief valve guy but I love him as the leading scorer and go-to guy at the end of of these games.
If it works more power to him
