Wow the Warriors look like they've completely given up... I can't remember the last time their body language has looked so bad

Yeah watching Curry walk off the court at halftime it was apparent they were done this game.

At least we won't see this wide of a FG% gap in game 4 (60% to 40%).
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

If OKC does end up winning this series, it'll be a good rematch of the 2012 Finals. I just don't see how Cleveland will contain both Westbrook AND Durant, along with dealing with their size down low. Also, with OKC actually playing defense now, I think they're much more able to handle Cleveland's offense than Cleveland is able to handle OKC's offense.

But that's probably getting ahead of ourselves. OKC will need to get through Golden State first, and though they're up 2-1 after tonight, it's still hard to bet against Golden State.

 Win  by 50 or win by two, it doesn't matter, it's just one game.

I can see Golden State winning the next game and then winning the series in six

I can't see any team winning 3 straight in this series. Feels like 7 games now but Game 4 is freaking huge now.

Curry looks far from 1p0% and he's the engine that makes them go. They're in serious trouble for the remainder of this series.

I agree, I don't know how anyone can call GSW beating OKC three straight games, after the way the first three games have gone.

Made the same mistakes as in the first game, in the last few minutes of the 1st half of this game, quick contested shots and lack of poise. How many times does Draymond Greene need to get his shot blocked to figure out it's the wrong shot to make. Worst half I've ever seen him play.

Especially since green is likely to get suspended.

Yep. They are looking an awful lot like the 16-0 Patriots team that lost to the Giants right about now. That regular season win record killed them.

OKC sure seems like a team that had a light turn on in the San Antonio series and realized they had a recipe for success that could work against anyone.
Yup

They would have better off in the last 2 minutes of the 1st half using up the full 24 seconds of the shot clock during each possession. They would have then at least been able to set up their defense. Steve Kerr should have called a timeout then to tell them to calm the #$%^ down.
