I love all the yellow jerseys in the crowd for Golden State. Looks fantastic.

Great atmosphere.

I like Denver more than Golden State as a team, but I have to admit that a GS-OKC series would have an electric atmosphere.  Those are probably the two best home courts in the league.

It's too bad OKC will get bounced in the next round to potentially the Grizzlies  ;)

GSW vs SAS West Semis, book it! SAS vs MEM West Finals.

Two things from this GS-Denver series:

Curry is a lot better than I thought.
Andrew Bogut's presence has changed everything.

The Oracle is home to the best fans in the NBA, and if OKC is second they are far behind.

Compare this game's crowd to OKC's last night.

Also, y'all slept on Steph Curry to your own peril. Dude is a phenomenal talent.

This is the Andrew Bogut people always wanted to see.  When he's healthy...wow!

They boo'ed Patrick Beverly for every possession he had. I don't understand why the boo...he didn't do anything wrong. If anything, OKC is just butt-hurt because Westbrook went down with an injury and blames it on Beverly when it was unintentional.

And Durant injuring Jeremy Lin in Game 3. Lin's my guy, and OKC and Durant just lost all my respect. Hope they don't see the finals...and those banners belonged to Seattle in the first place. If anything, San Antonio Spurs deserve to win it all this season. But I'd like for GSW a run at it.

I love watching the Warriors play basketball. And the Nuggets. This series has been great.

Agree.  They play an entertaining brand of basketball. 

Regarding Curry, he's turning in a fantastic series.  Turnovers are down, assists are way up, scoring more on better shooting.  He put GS's offense on his back and he's kicking Denver's ass.  He's also putting in the effort on defense, which is pleasant to see.

I thought Denver would be able to handle him by putting Iguodala on him, but they haven't been able to slow him down at all.  Just an exceptional offensive performance.

Reminds me a bit of Ray when he was on Milwaukee. Complete with the ankle issues.

Stupid turnovers by Warriors late in the 4th.

First game I've ever saw where both teams choked. Denver misses some easy layups and crucial free throws that could have either tied the game or put them in the lead. Warriors are just giving the basketball away. Crazy game.

The crowd's not leaving. Rad fans.

Also, Bogut has a great accent. Didn't realize he was an Aussie.

SAS and GSW. That should be another fun series.

Didn't Brewer save the ball before it went out of bounds?

Dubs almost blew it.  Could not inbound the dang ball. Almost gave me a heart attack. Refs helped them out too with that bogus out of bounds call.

Glad they won, but never was I dissatisfied with a series clinching win like this one. Denver got robbed.

Congratulations to the Warriors.  Didn't think they'd beat the Nuggets.

I don't think they'll beat the Spurs either, but I've already been wrong once.  I like the way the West is shaping up.  Should be fun to watch that side of the bracket play out.
