Klay looked old and slow out there

He's capable of having stellar games but yeah, he's been kinda inconsistent. Understandably given the injuries he's coming back from but one of his underrated skills was defense. He doesn't look that great on that end nowadays

That Iggy 3 basically summed it up. Not just Curry, a lot of their guys are shooting lights out. Frustrating.

But I love White being aggressive at the end. If the C's actually miraculously comeback or even make it close, his FTs and aggressive drives late in the 3rd will be a big reason why

WOW we actually did comeback! And like I said, White being aggressive kept us in it and allowed us to comeback. Otherwise we could have been down 20+ at the end of the 3rd

Boston outscored Golden State 40-13 in the fourth quarter with zero points from Jayson Tatum

After watching them strut and all the media ball-washing (Mark Jackson ****), an amazing choke.

Did Curry even score in the final 6 minutes?

His last miss was an uncontested layup.

I'm glad Ime gave Pritchard an opportunity.  He was huge tonight and I think he can continue to really help us in this series, much more so than against Miami.  GS doesn't have the kind of player than can continually abuse Pritchard on defense like Butler could.

Yeah, Pritchard can chase guys around the perimeter while also not having to worry about getting switched onto a guy like Butler who will just iso him to death. His shooting ability really helps open the court up on offense, as well.

The whole bench was very solid and played hard!

Please no more complaints about White.

He is truly getting better the deeper we go!

What I really like is that as good as Draymond Green is defensively - he totally sucks at offense so we can give him everything including foul shots. Just no layups as he can make those.

yeah, my son and i were discussing this during the fourth. he’s not the same player and our athleticism is too much for him.

I thought Rob and White really set the tone defensively early in the 4th. Then Jaylen started beasting and the Warriors lost their focus.

It is unnerving when an opponent takes your best shots and keeps getting off the mat.

Let's not forget that Brown's explosion got us back in this when we were getting killed.

Idk if maybe it was the broadcast's volume but when Draymond took that open 3 it sounded like the crowd went silent and/or sighed LOL. I don't think anyone really expected him to make it

Pritchard can stay with Curry....we found that out tonight.
Larry Bird was Greater than you think.

Curry looked hobbled at the end too.
