Curry isn't right.   His knees are hurting or something.  GS isn't the same as last year with him playing like that.

The problem is that it's hard to take the injury stuff seriously when he scores 40, including 17 in an overtime his first time game back from an injury.  He looks okay to me, he's just playing a really good team.
Curry is fine. Okc just has too much size.  That and they have two of the top 3 players in the series.

Is draymond green a bit overrated at this point?

Yeah, he's okay enough for his injury to not be an excuse. OKC has been the better team, pure and simple.
Isaiah, you were lightning in a bottle.

Awesome quarter of basketball.

Curry trying to catch fire and not quite getting there yet.

Russ and KD matching Curry blow for blow. Kanter coming up huge off the bench. Shoulda won sixth man.

KD could win DPOY if he wanted to.

Coming back from -8 in the fourth in OKC is going to be quite difficult.

But if any team can do it, it's the Warriors...especially when you add in the hero ball factor with OKC.  You always gotta worry if you're a Thunder fan that Durant and Westbrook will revert back to a 1 on 5 mentality.  Durant did it in the first half and singlehandedly caused what should've been at least a 12 point lead to only be a 5 point lead at halftime.

GS seems to be missing that extra magic they had last year to me.  I think OKC has this. It's tough to go back to back.

Points in the paint difference 46-22 OKC. Only way they can win this if they get hot from behind the arc.

their offense looks as pained as the Celtics.  Hard to watch this game if you're rootin for golden state.

Big picture, there's no shame in being the best regular season team two years in a row, winning a title one year and losing a tough series against an equally talented opponent in the WCF the next year. Winning 73 just made it feel like anything less than a title would be a major disappointment.

Dude I think you've forgotten just how hapless the Celts offense was at the end

OKC Crowd will have to WILL their team to win this one. GSW is a tough out.

Klay Thompson from NBA 3 point range. Oh wait.

Anyone else think these 3 pt records aren't that impressive?   Players take and hit a lot more 3's in general.  That stuff used to be an impressive feat and hard to do.
