Feeling a bit vindicated for not being as down on Poole as others were. He really stepped up his game as his track record suggested he could, and even had 0 turnovers with 6 assists in addition to great shooting.
Told my buddy right before the game that I haven’t seen anyone make any confident predictions about Warriors-Lakers. It’s all if this happens, it will be W’s. If that happens, it will be Lakers. So I said to me it comes down to if !Klay Thompson shoots well the W’s win. If he doesn’t the Lakers win. I should have added if Draymond scores double figures (because he will get a ton of opportunities) W’s will win.
If Klay shoots 9-25 and 4-19 as he has the last 2 games the Warriors will lose the series.
It’s shocking when team with 14 more shot attempts that sinks 21 3s to the opponent’s 6 loses.
But it’s also rare to lose when outscoring the opponent by 20 at the Free Throw line. I call bullshit on the Lakers committing only 3 fouls per quarter and the W’s 6 per quarter. If fouls are close to even, W’s win, but Thompson simply must shoot at least 40% FG for Warriors to win given his high volume of shots.
Can’t believe the Knicks struggled to beat Heat without Butler.
