First, the way he reacted on the injury made many think it could be something different. Granted, its just their opinion. But then Durant has been ruled out of crucial games on a day-to-day basis while a true time frame has never been given. Excuses start to really seem fishy the more games he misses in the most crucial part of the season. And his free agency turns this situation even more suspicious, so until he comes back, I really think we aren’t getting the whole story. Knicks_Fan

How they still thought the Warriors were going to win after all the injuries to Iggy, Klay, KD, Looney, is bizarre. Nearly every show, every writer is always saying "the Warriors will win", there's next to no diversity of opinion. |

His injury might be worse than revealed and depending on that, we will either see him leave, proving he still expects to be back fully for next season, or he will have to take the option back to GS as he might be worried about it affecting him. I think the injury will be more of a factor than any “Durant’s absence proved he is needed so he will want to return” narrative. Knicks_Fan

Actually think Warriors have a better shot at coming back without Durant. Even if he was near completely healthy - he would need a few games to get his rhythm back. Think the Warriors win game 5 and lose at Oracle in Game 6.

3-1 and its easy to say they are done. Statistically yeah.
Only one team ever did that. Lebron against the best regular season record team. Here the low down, Warriors are getting healthier. Loony back, cousins gets a little more in shape, perhaps with rest (this thing is dragging out!!) Klay is better, and then Durant. Maybe 20 min and 20 pts is all they need from him. This game is the sum. Are they cooked? Easy to say yeah. Its rare for a team to sweep like the Warriors did coming into this series and have one of the games current best out. Usually teams go down 1-3 they are cooked. Because of the injuries, this is different. I won't sit here and prognosticate the outcome of the game but its must see TV for sure. |

The bodies might still work but the mind is done. The brain is a muscle too. I think when Phil saw GSW and said they could sustain I think he was right but GSW broke a glass ceiling and could play loose and free. You can do that when healthy as they were their first chip. In the second run where they lost up 3-1 they were similarly worn out. The last years they get Durant who helped big time with half court play in crunch time. Big time. Phil had said what he said before they got Durant. Again, they broke the glass ceiling and took the game to new level. Kerr was able to do what D'Antoni cold not in Phx or in Houston. He simply had the talent to do it! Toronto is long, athletic and they are shooting. Kawhi made others better. Its what the great ones do. Derozen was a talent, but not a "great one". Im not rooting for anyone this series, I am just experiencing it. Happy if Raptors win and happy to see a comeback if GSW can pull it off by being healthy. |
