Marty is my real name. I have confessed such a few times on here a while ago. I'm just trying to be a little more real about who I am, rather than hiding behind my fake username handle. :-) You can still refer to me as Mori if you like, or Marty.
Can we refer to your as that dildo wielding guy pretending to be Asian?

Banged it going into the seats after a ball. Looks pretty gnarly. It happened before he went turbo mode last night though so not sure how much it'll effect him going forward.
Yeah, saw him go into the crowd. Everybody scattered and took pictures. I would have caught him and tried to hold him up if I'm a Warriors fan in the crowd there. He played great after that.

They should have recorded the trainer draining that puppy and put it on popthatzit.com.

Bad news: This Eastern Conference finals is trash.

Good news: The finals should be great.

Curry's elbow is looking bad. Will this affect him for the rest of the series?

It's stupid to not have games on any day. Warriors played Wednesday but not again till Sunday? Dumb.
Go Suns!

Even dumber is that the Cavs played Thursday yet their game is the Saturday game.

If they're going to win any game in the series, it'll be this one. But I still think this is a sweep.

I'd love to see them get the next one too but I don't know if they have it in them.

I liked how they got so physical with Lebron, hacking him and knocking him down several times. I have often thought that being physical would work to help beat both Lebron and Curry, neither of whom is really interested in getting smashed into for 48 minutes.

I didn't see the game but If Toronto physically beat him up thank goodness, it is about time.

Lebron like all of the "Superstars" seem to get away with far too much. He seems to push off on virtually every drive to the hoop and gets away with it. This has gone on for a long time in the NBA so it is nothing new. The only way to beat it is too push back.

I don't see Curry being a bully and pushing off to get his shot off. He is just more skilled than everyone else. I hope the refs do not allow players to bully Curry, he is just too much fun to watch.
What was the reason to get rid of Monty again? Oh yeah, that guy we drafted rather than Doncic.

Everyone else on the Dubs does all the dirty work for Curry. Jersey pulling, moving screens, playing defense etc etc... LeBron gets mauled on a regular basis, he gets penalized for being bigger/stronger/faster. It's the same thing Shaq had to endure.

I fell real bad that they have been treated so poorly.
