  1. I will never get over the fact I get to watch Steph Curry’s entire career. I’m not sure I’ll ever feel this way about an athlete again

  2. I know it’s such an overplayed topic, but man, there’s just such a drastic contrast from an entertainment perspective between watching SGA vs Curry

  3. Now we know that the real reason Wemby trained with Monks was to defeat Steph Curry after what happened at the Olympics.

  4. Ugly, ugly 4th & OT for Jokić. Had a bunch of chances to put this away and couldn’t hit late, either from midrange or from deep. Wasted the best game of Aaron Gordon’s career.

  5. Aaron Gordon was a late ‘eh fuck it’s pick up in my fantasy team. I randomly got a notification of him 7/7 on 3s.

    Jimmy really went from playmaking with Kelly O/Dunc/Herro off ball actions in 2020 to Horford/Curry. lmao.

    Kuminga. MIP and DPOY. I’m starting the agenda

  6. Jokic completely sold the game. Had so many wide-open 3 point opportunities and bricked all of them. Also could’ve won the game in regulation, but bricked that as well

  7. Steph Curry shows no signs of slowing down he probably has 5 years left in him if he wants to

  8. Why do you hate us, AG? This dude balls out against us everytime. Respect.

    I love Big Al, our bigs are gonna learn a lot from him.
    And Steph takes the lead in their FT showdown with Jimmy.

  9. Curry can’t be the best player in the world every night anymore, but when he wants to he can be the best player in the world on any given night regardless of who else is on the floor.

  10. I am baffled that Denver stopped spamming Gordon and decided to run the Jokic and Murray two man game. Bro scored 50 on 80+%

  11. It should be a national holiday once Steph decides to retire. No one does it like him.

  12. I’m impressed by Kuminga. He looks to have matured a lot mentally. He looks bought into the system. Isn’t rushing anything, is looking to pass a lot, screening a lot, but still aggressive in good moments.

  13. Yo, what the hell is going on with this season opening? Every game I’ve watched has been intense as hell and half of them have gone into overtime. Is it too early to say this is the most competitive western conference we’ve ever had in the NBA? These mfs playing like it’s the playoffs already

  14. After a couple of heartbreaking postseasons, I totally unplugged from sports this summer. No sports radio, no sports podcasts, nothing. It was honestly one of the most refreshing experiences ever. I rode my bike in the evenings and listened to a bunch of audiobooks. I rediscovered the bliss of not carrying that emotional burden.

    Then for two and a half hours tonight, I remembered why I’m such a sports fanatic. Nothing that I experienced over the summer could replicate the feeling I had for most of this Nuggets game as AG hit 50. I had relapsed. I was on one of my all-too-familiar highs that only a die-hard sports fan can relate to.

    And then Steph Curry happened. Take me back to the summer

  15. Warriors 0-9 vs Nuggets pre-Jimmy acquisition

    Warriors 2-0 vs Nuggets post-Jimmy acquisition

  16. Once again, I gotta shout out both Kerr and the bench.  The fact that, even in a closely contested overtime game against the former 2 seed, nobody played more than 39 minutes for the Warriors is fantastic minutes management and will be crucial for this Paleolithic ass team. 

    If we can keep gritting out wins without running our old guys into the ground, I don’t think anyone’s gonna wanna play a healthy Warriors team in the playoffs, especially if we have home court in the first round.
