The last angle I saw looked like Zaza didn't do anything out of the ordinary. I certainly wouldn't call it a dirty play.
But also S.A. had 8 years of benefiting from the same type of plays from Bruce Bowen. If they complain I would just laugh.
Go Suns!

I really don't like Durant and I was kinda hoping the Spurs would win this series. I also don't wish any player injured. That said I am getting a lot of amusement out of the reactions of the Spurs fans from the Zaza play.

So many of their fans played off the garbage Bowen did as just good defense. Never mind the fact that he kicked a guy in the face or caused a lot of injuries. I won't even mention the other asshole.

All said the tears of the Spurs fans are quite amusing.

I wouldn't put it past Pop that it was his evil plan from the beginning. He and Kerr had a relationship with Brown. Pop suggested Brown to Kerr knowing his health issues. Bingo. Brown now in charge of the Warriors against his Spurs. Masterful.

It was most definitely a dirty play by Pachulia but that's karma, baby! I think about Horry and Bowen and I laugh at the Spurs today. I hate the Warriors since Durant joined them and I wanted the Spurs to beat them but on the other hand, the Spurs got what they've dished out in the past so I don't feel bad for them in the slightest. I'm really glad to hear their fans are crying about it. Poor Spurs fans.

You guys are so bitter.

That game was fun to watch as a Warriors fan. Incredible comeback. I hope Kawhi isn't out for future games, though. I don't think the Spurs can win the series even with Kawhi, but without him it will be a rout.

LaMarcus Aldridge had big stats, but I wish he would be more assertive in a game like this. He is too quick to fade away and avoid contact. Against smaller guys like the Spurs have, he should go up strong and feast on those little defenders.

You're a Dubs fan? What? Gross.

Incredible comeback? Nah, Spurs were completely deflated once Klaw went down again, it was only a matter of time.

What's with all the hate towards Kevin Durant for going to the Warriors?

I sense a healthy amount of "back in my day" BS.

Nothing new. I've said it from the start. I hate the "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em" superteam BS.

I think that's a fairly gross generalization when considering that he was living in Oklahoma City and playing for that owner.

Intentionally going to a worse team is also a pretty dumb idea to me. I don't understand the sentiment that these guys should intentionally make winning more difficult for themselves while at the same time being judged as inferior players for not winning a championship.

Would you have the same opinion if the Suns roster was switched with the Warriors?
