I gotta say, the tv networks have so much of an influence on the game. From this late start, to the extra long and frequent commercials, it really takes away from the flow of the game.

It’s 3 quarters in and the Warriors ability to draw soft calls is already annoying

When you're paying $24 Billion, you get what you want.

Curry is like an MLS player... everything is a foul. Just selling any contact. Never misses a free throw so you can understand why, but that's pretty annoying.

They hit the nail on the head that he's so quick and his headfakes throw guys off into making simple contact. As a big player that would be hard not to fall for that.

Awful closeout possession but everything before that in the last two minutes was great. If the Warriors would have closed it to 2 or 4 points I'd say they likely take it.

Now it's all about Kawhi. If he can step up and take over a bit we can take this. If he isn't a big factor I think GS rolls over us in the 4th.

Siakam’s having a hell of a game. Thus far the Raps are making it look like at least they can compete with the Warriors, which is great to see.
I know it’s only game one, but so far, so good!

Why is McCaw getting any minutes in the 4th? Foul trouble?

That call on Lowry is why people call the NBA a rigged league.

Fans need to be harder on the refs after a call like that
