AKA tank to avoid the thunder?

Obviously Klay will be out. Will GSW give the Brow a win to keep them in the playoff running? I could see Curry/Bogut/Green also resting.

Also, why the hell are there no TNT games tomorrow?

No warriors are too Alpha for that nonsense and OKC is insanely overrated from westbrick stans

They will probably rest players but still win the game.

If they tank to avoid the Thunder they deserve to lose in the first round.

Because of the NCAA Tournament (also will have games on TNT, but ratings doe).

Depends if they're playing at home. Coaches tend to pull this off while on the road. It's bad business otherwise.

GOATbrook will still carry the Thunder to the playoffs...other then the trip to SA...okc has an easy schedule.

Warriors don't five a fukc about the Thunder. That fact that anyone thinks this team is going to tank to avoid anyone is laughable at best.


That said, we may rest players over the next couple weeks. The #1 seed is pretty much locked up, and the last thing we want is an injury to a key player.

This.

Teams are scared of GS, not the other way around. Trust me, nobody wants to play in Oracle Arena. It's a nightmare venue. I've seen great teams get ****ing wrecked in there so many times this season.

only bran stan would think of tanking to avoid competition.. that bran beta mentality doesn't work for the GSW

Memphis is 7.5 games behind... Almost impossible to lose the 1 seed with like 15 games left lol

Not a tank. This is just Pop's old strategy of resting players.

Yeah, because 25 and 26 year olds need the rest :rolleyes:

Pop resting an old Duncan or Ginobli or injury-plagued Parker is a different strategy. This fking Steve Kerr rested everyone before a Knicks game, when they didn't even need any of their players to beat the Knicks :facepalm

Can't wait till OKC embarrasses this paper tiger of a team.

Warriors want nothing to do with OKC.

Warriors will get their shit pushed in and they know it.

Will be a good series until westbrick pisses it away, disgusted durant joins golden state in 2016.

The last time a first seed tried to do that, the Mavericks let the Warriors win so they'd face them instead of someone else.

We all know how that turned out.
