Much surprised. I stopped watching in the 3rd quarter thinking the outcome was predictable. Gritty OKC, and many times in professional sports it's the team with the most heart that gets after it that wins since the talent level is so close. Warriors aren't as hungry as OKC after winning it last year.
Looks to me like GS needs to stop reading the papers and get set for a fight OKC isn't going to walk, Proof was what you saw tonight OKC winning game 1 on the road. Going to be short series if GS doesn't pick it up.
Crappy shooting by Durant - Westbrook got it done. Warriors need to prepare better for the next game. If Durant didn't miss so many shots - this game might not have been close near the end.
I'm not attracted to Steph Curry in that way at all so he never gets my panties wet. My Warriors crush is on a different guy.
I was shocked. Warriors gave up a lead at home, which they almost never do. There were definitely some questionable calls down the stretch (Westbrook's clear travel) but this one is on the Warriors. They're definitely the superior team. I expect them to come out very strong next game - especially Steph and Draymond.
Surprising I think, because GS didn't play too badly and still lost at home. I still expect GS to win the series convincingly. OKC proves that a deep bench is not as vital in the playoffs as it is in the regular season. If Westbrook or Durant has an off night, they'll lose by 40.
Yeah - OKC looked like the hungrier team and GS looked like they thought they just had to show-up and win b/c they are GS and were at home - and Curry did not look like himself.
I def think Billy Donovan has OKC playing w/ an attitude/edge which they lacked under the previous coach, IMO.
OKC should have defeated GS in regular season once if not for half court Curry shot. Regular season took too much out of GS. Looking for OKC to win in 6 and go on to defeat Cavs in 6 (sipping OKC Kool-aid).

Do tell - Klay Thompson ?
She will miss his money.
