been a long 5 yeras.
we're legit. powherhouse team again. no arguments to be made.
Maybe part of it is where your seats are? I was up in loudville and it felt like the crowd was literally hanging on every play. They seemed really engaged to me. I still think the 4th quarter of the Portland game had more of a playoff feel to me, but that's probably because it was such a close game and Kyrie was having such a special night. We have come to expect nights like last night from LeBron, I think. Plus, the lead was pretty solid in the fourth quarter so emotions weren't running as high as if it was a tight game. I do wish people stood/jumped up more after big plays-seems like everyone is just super comfy in their seats lol. Hopefully that will be different come playoffs.I was at the game as well and I did not get the playoff intensity vibes. Half the game felt like the fans weren't into it which has been the case for a lot of the games this year. Lebron goes off against best team in the west and I could count on one hand the amount of times the entire crowd was on their feet. I came away overly impressed with the teams performance and very disappointed with the crowd. Maybe it was just me but my two friends with me said the same as well as one of my buddies on the other side of arena.
@Randolphkeys you watch the Warriors more than anyone here (I assume)...do they really cry all night like that when they're losing?
I guess I haven't watched them enough when they are losing, but man. They were begging for EVERYTHING.
Makes me wonder if they get all those "foul" calls back home...
I only watched the second half last night - kid had a doctor's appointment. But I can say that I've watched about 30+ Warriors games this year and I haven't seen them flustered like that since the playoffs. They weren't hitting their shots, but I think they imploded as well. That was the best defense anyone has played on them all year. Defensively, they have been letting Green play help defense and leave his man a little bit. They couldn't do that against the Cavs and it frustrated them as well.
Oh, OK, Mr. I-got-three-foul-shots-for-getting-breathed-on-after-a-three-point-attempt.
