  1. 1:23 Its moves like that from DLO that drives me nuts. Even if Steph Curry travelled, go back to the defense for crying out loud. Stopping in the middle to show the ref that it was a travel means you're not taking defense seriously. You have split second to defend and you waste it. Its like someone about to get into a collision that is not avoidable and they spend the time to honk the horn when its too late. Spend that split second to swerve, not to honk a horn.

  2. 😅😅😅 look how many AD playing time that would put him in risk .Let's see who has the last laugh.

  3. 1:38 left // game is tied up
    1:24 left // Russell lay up +2 lakers
    1:09 left // Davis blocks Curry +2 lakers
    1:05 left // James fouled 1/2 on FT +3 lakers
    0:42 left // Poole misses runner +3 lakers
    0:20 left // James misses dagger 3 +3 lakers
    0:09 left // Poole misses 3 to tie +3 lakers
    0:02 left // Schroeder fouled 2/2 on FT +5 lakers

    Golden state went on a miraculous 14-0 run to tie it with 1:38 left, then were held to 0-3 shooting including a near turnover with 52 seconds left. As much as the narrative is that the lakers almost blew it, their response from the 1:38 mark was a 5-0 run to end the game led by their clutch defense.

  4. Id love to see Kerr's reaction to Poole's heave at 4:10 . We saw Curry was obviously not happy about that l

  5. Draymond took the night off. Hopefully he will show up in game 2. Kind of tired of him picking and choosing when to play tho.

  6. A galera sacrificando o Poole, mas 0:58 ninguém fala nada, como que erra uma bandeja sozinho, querem colocar o Poole como culpado mas se não fosse ele nem ia ter possibilidade de empate 🤷🏾‍♂️

  7. People say Lakers almost choke after that 14-0 run like they completely forgot that this is the reigning NBA DEFENDING CHAMPIONS with best shooter of all time SC.

  8. Great defense by the Lakers, LeBron keep driving the ball! You are the King of the paint, Klay had no chance of stopping you don't settle for the three! Go get another and 1 like you did against Brooks!

  9. Andrew Wiggins was wide open under the basket. I know you'd prefer a 3 there, but there was time to take the easy 2 and foul. Poole parties are fun until someone drowns.

  10. Draymond blows a layup , Curry takes a weak ass finger roll which I could of blocked and Poole fires up a 40 footer with 15 seconds left🤦🏾‍♂️. Starting to believe the people who say it's rigged‼️

  11. "The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don't define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them." —Denis Waitley

  12. This is a great example of what a steaming pile of shit the West is this year. The trash Warriors have home court advantage in a round 2 playoff series. Against the Lakers. LOL! You can't make this shit up.
