He shoulda kept his *** in there. I was pissed when Phil took Kobe out in that Dallas game when he had 60 I think also.
 
i get the "sit him down" logic.

i am just saying, that as a fan, it would've been nice to see him play 5 or 6 more mins to see what he could do. he was 10 points away from basketball "rare air".

Apparently, your opinion as a paying customer doesn't matter.

Again, it's ENTERTAINMENT FIRST.
 
1) injuries. The opposing player might take it as disrespect and trip that man, slide his foot under him or get extra physical

2) sportsmanship. U play to win the game, the game was won now have a seat.

These dudes are more than likely gonna be in the finals, u don't need any bs injuries from front running or gunning for a record. Save 82 for the finals against cleveland.

so whats the narrative after klay plays 5 more mins and scores 83?

any player not disrespected by 55pts hung on him in 2.5 quarters isn't gonna be disrespected y 60+

it was a 20+ point game early in the third. at what point should sportsmanship kick in?

I think the injury factor is overblown in these situations. If anything they'll just start double teaming him. They didn't try to injure Kobe as the game started to get outta hand against Toronto. There's too much respect for each other's livelihoods. Besides this Era is even more soft.
 
The kobe game only happened because the game was close 90% of the game. He was killing u but u still could've won the game. If they were up 40 then who knows what would've happen. It's always overblown until it happens. I honestly was shocked klay was still out there at the end of the 3rd. U can tell Kerr was being nice and letting him get it before he pulled him.
 
At the end of the day, I'm glad Klay didn't break Kobe's record :p
 
add eric gordon and bogut back to that NBA all-injured team.

bogut had 2 relatively healthy seasons in gsw...but he is hurt...again

Wow! Klay Thompson with 60pts in 3 quarters! Stop it Klay, stop it! Amazing!

It was fun watching the Warriors celebrate after every basket Klay Thompson made!

What may go unnoticed is Steph Curry's no-look lob to Kevin Durant! That lob reminded me of "Showtime"!

Troy Daniels has turned into the black JJ Redick , What is life

Last 4 games:

19 points / 4-8 3PT
19 points / 3-5 3PT
31 points / 6-12 3PT
29 points / 7-11 3PT

need dat

Conley gets hurt and rest last season from an injury and he's on the injury list :lol . Yet, someone like Blake just gets "freak accidents". Conley ain't our hearing tearing ACL's b2b. If anything, he's the unlucky one getting the freak accident injuries.

Ive honestly never seen a NBA offense score this easily this is one of the craziest things ever. They got 110 with 3 mins left in the 3rd still!!
KD will win that MVP fairly easily by seasons end.
 
If Klay went out there and got hurt, 100% of you would be talking about how dumb they are for leaving him out there
thats just one of the dumb unwritten rules in sports IMO

if a player is gonna get hurt, he's gonna get hurt. enough with the coulda, woulda, shoulda
Everything matters.

You get to point B from point A

One thing cannot happen without another
 
People lose so much sight that on the fact that this is entertainment

 
For you. It's an actual job for them. They have to preserve their ability to "entertain" you.

He didn't even get to play in either OT either did he? 

I don't think he did......

Suspensions for several games will be handed down to DeMarcus & Matthew.

Rondo is really a piece of crap. Seriously, whats wrong with this guy behind closed doors? You see him in interviews on TV and he seems pretty tame. One those cameras are off, son flips. He'll probably be moved by this summer....


bulls have a team option for next year, and i can't imagine they bring him back. its been 5 years since rose got hurt and they still haven't managed to draft or acquire a potential long term PG.

I agree man
 
T Jones was cooked or Pels would have won.

Memphis is going to be so so deep after ASB. 

honestly shocked considering depth (+ injuries) were the biggest concerns going into the season. fizdale really is putting in work on developing our guys.

zbo should be back tomorrow then VC later this week. ennis/parsons next week. conley walking around like nothing wrong with him, so maybe he returns sooner than we think
 
Klay is the second greatest 3pt shooter behind Curry. Not surprised honestly. The dude gets hot like this all the time where he just explodes in a quarter or a half.

Now that Curry and KD on the floor, 2 shot creators, efficient facilitators, and threats from anywhere on the court that just makes Klay even more of a threat going forward.

60 points in 29 min is crazy.

light work.

kobe had 60 from a stretcher...on retirement night.

shouldve stayed in and tried to beat 81.
 
Haven't watched the game yet, impressive nonetheless.

But here's my question before I watch game...

Was Warriors in sort of trouble? Was it ever close or were they losing?

nah. warriors dogged those boys. they had 80 at half time, 30 point lead.
 
I always said if anybody were to come close to breaking 70 points again... It would be Harden, Durant, or Klay (ever since 37 in 1 quarter)

But I'm seeing a lot of Kobes name being brought up for comparison. All I gotta say is it's no comparison. Klay still had 2 of the most efficient shooters and scorers on the floor with him.

Which means guys still had to cover them and not leave them open.

Kobe on the other hand was the ONLY scorer on his team. Which means teams were able to double, triple team him because there was nobody else that could score.

When Kobe scored 81, 62 in 3, hell even when he scored 56 in 3 against Memphis. He was the only scorer on his team. Yet he found away to get his shot off and score. I remember Kobe dropping 55 in ONE HALF!

I know Kobe is retired so he's forgotten now. But let's not get carried away!
