It is probably their players. And their coach. Yeah.
The owner escapes mention only because he's a huge step up from his predecessor.

getting robinson (they waited for him to finish his obligations at the naval academy), then duncan sure helped.

Like I said, Pels would be lucky to win one.

And I don't understand why that last shot in regulation wasn't a four point play. AD landed on Curry.

That's not a troll. Green meant it as a compliment.

Anyway, Green got his lunch money taken repeatedly last night.

Right. And even up 20, that can be like 4 minutes of scoring for GS when they are rolling.

all great players have one or more reliable go to moves. he's saying davis doesnt have any.


guys like AD dont need to be double teamed (and the warriors arent doing it to davis so far this entire series)

Dude did you read the article? He even says it himself that it is a good thing. It's less predictable.

he tried to walk back his statement. doesnt want his statement to be a locker room material for AD.

btw, having a go to move not a bad thing. eg skyhook, jabbar
