When he declined to dribble in further and just shoot from 35 ft :damn:





Greatest single season in NBA history. I don't care what anybody say. I know bigs in the past have had amazing seasons because physically nobody could match up. This dude is straight up finessing w/ this shooting shyt. The 3s he take and still average 47% is :dead:

yeah...uhm...the warriors could not buy a shot in the 1st quarter
they don't normally start that cold
this was an off night



7th and final game of a road trip where they got out rebounded by 30, no one but Steph could make a 3, Steph got hurt in the 3rd and they still won.


Yeah it's tough for me to see optimism. This was a humiliating loss for OKC

I watched the game and Durant got everything on him. They just sent a double on him with Green on him. Watched the whole game, Green didn't do shyt to slow him down, that's the way it is.
You know the funniest thing about this? Durant scored ONE basket while Draymond was guarding him. He scored all of two points when guarded by Green. I don't know what the fukk you were watching. Durant scored the majority of his points on Iggy, Barnes and Klay. Plus I mean who gives a fukk if Durant did score on Green? He's one of the most talented scores that's ever played the game.

Here's his made shots -
Here's the video footage of all Durant's FG makes/misses - NBA.com/Stats

Draymond guarded him on his 4th attempt, contesting the shot even after he was caught behind a screen - MISS
Draymond guarded him on his 12th attempt, contesting the shot with a hand directly in his face - MAKE
Draymond guarded him on his 13th attempt, picked Durant up from the start of the halfcourt, shadowed him down to the elbow and contested the shot - MISS
Draymond guarded him on his 14th attempt, defended on the wing, Durant tried to spin but Draymond was privy to it and blocked his turnaround J - MISS
Draymond guarded him on his 26th attempt (last shot of regulation), defended on the wing and contested the shot - MISS

Durant was 1 out of 5 when guarded by Draymond - all shots where Draymond guarded him without any help (even blocked one of his shots). 1 out of 5 field goals. This is all without mentioning there were a few times that Draymond was shadowing him on possessions by himself (forcing Durant to pass) and when he was playing good ball-deny defense on Durant too. Like @Malta said, Draymond was everywhere on defense - I don't know what game you watching to contest something as clear as that.

and anybody else who thought Draymond didn't block Adams' dunk attempt -




Look at the first replay and look at how the ball spins out of Adams' hands - the ball would only spin in that fast clockwise motion if someone swatted it out of his hand - the ball would not spin like that if Draymond hit his hand/arm causing the ball to come out. On the second replay, you can see Draymond's fingers hit the ball before he makes incidental contact with his Adams' arm on the follow through. The last picture of the slide shows that his arm/hand was at the height of the ball. Lastly, Adams made no attempt to plead for a foul. It was a block.

All facts.
