If we could just keep it close by half. … and then not get smoked in Q3.

6 turnovers for the C's, leading to 8 Warriors points.

What's the deficit guys?

Cut it to 6 by the half and we'll be in great shape.  We've put together a terrible half but it's single digits.

That vaunted Boston defense is just not good enough
This is just a hilarious comment. They are currently only on 43 points. Limiting an NBA offence to ~50 or so in a half is incredibly impressive, especially against this Warriors team.

They are getting carved up tonight. Don’t care about the points GS has. Look at the looks they have. In the paint at will

We might be the first team ever to consistently make Wiggins look like a true #1 pick

Wiggins always reminded me of Jeff Green. All the talent in the world, but no motor. He’s certainly proving me wrong in this series.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

They're keeping 2 or 3 guys in the paint vs Tatum or Jaylen's drives. The answer is what Al just did.

Drive and kick the ball out to a wide open shooter? Sounds good to me.

Need to make those open shots.

If GS starts out strong in the 3rd, they will bury the Cs.

And knowing C's 3rd quarter woes lately...got a bad feelin'

Shooting splits of 37/20/40 as a team, with a really turnover-prone 1st quarter.

Won't get it done with such bad offence

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

I wish we had Jeff Green tonight.

Take Smart off Curry. Let White play him.  Put Smart on Green.

Huh? You mean the same Curry who has a whopping 4 points tonight? We've completely shut down Curry thus far primarily due to Smart's denial defense on him.

Warriors might have home-court advantage in Boston

Wiggins too much length for White to guard all the time.
