And I agree with JVG...When defenders slide their foot under jump shooters, causing them to come down on the feet of the defenders should be called a flagrant foul. Those plays are dirty and intentional IMO...We are seeing more and more jump shooters rolling ankles....It can't be coincidence...

Probably. The Warriors were basically a 2-man team. They got almost nothing from anyone else.

Last year? The one where Curry hurt his ankle and knee?

Kawhi leadership on both ends of the court were taking the entire Warriors rotation out their game ..
Yep! Kawhi are a NBA super-star!

113 - 111 GS Warriors win ....
The Spurs MVP star Kawhi Leonard were blowing the Warriors out their own building having a 23 pt lead early in 3rd Qtr. before Kawhi went down with an angle injury .... the thought of the Spurs winning the first game of the series inside GS arena wow! it kept crossing my mind at halftime .. AGGY it didnt go down

Warriors didn't win the Spurs lost this one after they lost Kwahi. Even without Parker the Spurs were basically coasting. But Aldridge didn't really step up. He loses the bball every other possession and commits turnovers half of them are unforced. Between him and Pau and Lee they can punish the Warriors inside, but it's not happening.

I cannot teach anybody anything. I can only try to make them think - Socrates

Spurs were without their star-players Parker n Kawhi playmaking style in the 2nd half of the game ..
Mills/Simmons/Murray are getting their first playoff experience with Pop

A long layoff usually takes time to get over and I feel GS experienced it. Once their legs got under them it became easy.

Zaza must have been studying Bruce Bowen.

I was thinking that exact thought. I assume you're remembering isiah the coach absolutely flipping out over that

It should be a flagrant. And team should retaliate like they do in baseball

[sarcasm] Brandon Jennings really putting on a show. That's the defense I was accustomed to seeing[sarcasm]

I find Popovich calling Zaza a dirty player funny. Didn't Bowen do that a lot and he accepted everything Bowen did.
