Some very interesting stats from last night I heard on my local radio station about the Golden State Warriors..

They are the first team in NBA history to miss 30 or more 3 pointers , shoot at least 15 fewer free throws than their opponent, have a rebound margin of minus -5 or worse and yet still win the game, regular season or post season.

Pretty crazy impressive stuff that just goes to show how good this Warriors team is.

It can be said about almost any sport; defense wins championships. The Warriors defense is among the best in the league, which is how they've gotten to this point without having the best season or the best stats. Steph curry had a horrible night; he's their most valuable player but only scored 16 points in game 5, despite being on the court for 37 minutes. Most teams wouldn't be able to recover from that. Let's face it, Steph won game 4 single handedly, scoring 40% of the Warriors total, but even that game couldn't have been won without a stout defense. Even when the team has trouble scoring, they can still keep themselves in the game.

It's been a fun run, but I expect the Warriors to drop game 6. The Celtics are just too strong at home, and their season is on the line. Oh well, it'll be fun when GS wins the title at home. Grin

Why everyone is talking about the poor Celtics' defense on why they lost the Game 5? From what I observed the entire game, the Celtics' defense is good but it's just that the Warriors are able to score even if there's a good defense. The warriors are just too much for the Celtics in that game but it doesn't mean that's the end of them. Boston Celtics will bounce back and I'm sure of that.

They won't allow the Warriors to celebrate the championship at the Garden arena.

The Finals will be decided in Game 7.

It was Wiggins this time, and Klay also has something to do with the big win. And what's funny is that aside from the poor shooting from Curry, they lost the 3rd quarter.

Despite that, they've been saved by the last shot of Poole which made them retrieve the lead of the Celtics. And after that, the rest is history and they've won the 4th quarter smoothly.

You could really able to differentiate a team which does have finals experience but we cant underestimate them yet they wont reach out into that position if they arent that capable.

Celtics made a good run for the whole season but it's really a different experience when it comes to the finals. It's not just all about the physical battle that they have to do but also mentally and we know that they're all aware of that. That's why the Warriors is still one of the best teams during the finals, they've been there for so many times.

Warriors won the game last night without Curry having a monster game. 0/9 on shooting 3 pointers and only 16 points. Now they lead 3-2 and will likely close out the series in game 6. Boston played well through 4 games but they just don't have what it takes.

But then, they took the 4th with a huge run that Boston don't know what to do because they don't have the experience. And yes, it looks like the Warriors are going to close out the series in game 6. It will be game 6 Klay time.

It is really just happened that they do up against on a team which is strong but we cant make out some conclusions yet since this one isnt over year.
We do still have game 6 which is the decider whether it would be tie up or totally be close up.

To those haters who do say that Curry is the one who do carry out the game then the recent game was showing off that each members do their roles despite of that bad night of Curry.

Well Sir Charles Barkley is one critic of the Warriors. But then Golden State shows another talent of them, win crucial games with Curry not having his usual monster game.

They do know about ball rotation and defense and making out points or simply compensate on whats lacking and thats the thing i do like with Warriors.
Im not that rooting for Game 6 close up but rather it would be interesting if this one would push through game 7 on where everything could really be thrilling
and exciting.

Everyone in the Warriors team knows their role that even if they are replaced in the floor, the new players can come in and then their offense will continue with fluidity. I think game 6 will be close, but it will still be the Warriors to win the championship.

It would be so funny if Warriors wins the series next game with a huge game from Wiggins and he gets the FMVP award. I mean I am not saying that because I dislike Curry or anything, of course he deserves it, but let's be honest dude is not a big finals player, and he lost three FMVP already, so it would be quite funny to see him lose it again.

I hope he gets it though, he deserves it because he already got like 3 titles with Warirors and without him they wouldn't be anywhere near this level, he is the one that takes them there, and he deserves to get it. Wiggins could play a 50 point game and I would say Curry still deserves it, but would definitely laugh if he doesn't get it.

Jordan Wiggins the young star player in the golden state warriors he doing so great that can carry his team to victory and best player of the game.

LOL, looks like you combine the two good players of the Warriors roster.
It's actually, Jordan Poole and Andrew Wiggins. Grin

Anyway, both of them did great, especially Wiggings who are the best player in the game.

Maybe he just forgot to put a comma next to Jordan, just kidding! Grin

Both of them made sure to give their best to contribute to the team, it's just that Wiggins is more gifted in size that's why he can go against Tatum, Williams III and Horford. The kid have a bright future and he will be given more exposure to enhance his skills in the court, Green is getting older that's why the Warriors needs to invest in young good players in the center. Well, they managed to win the Game 5 and 1 win remaining to claim the title.

Wiggins has been consistent in the Finals, but he has a breakout game when it's needed the most and he gave the Warriors a lead in the series. Great game 5 by the Warriors and I have a feeling that Klay will explode in game 6.

Game 4 - Curry
Game 5 - Wiggings
Game 6- Klay (That's his game)

looks like the Warriors know exactly what to do in the 4th quarter because they further stretch their lead to complete wins against the Boston Celtics. now that they are 1 game away to win the NBA championship this season, they can proudly say that they are back again to cause a problem for whoever will gonna be their opponent in the NBA playoffs next season. Still, Wiggins, has the most points in this game and he completely plays different games in these last two games and the results are priceless for the GSW.

The Warriors have been missing in the Finals in the last 2 seasons because of the injuries they sustained, now that they are healthy and back, they will make sure that they will bring home the championship title to their franchise. I can't deny that the Warriors have been more impressive this season, they have some new assets on the floor doing the job for the team. Steve Kerr truly knows what to do to his players to utilize their capabilities so that they can be lethal once they start to play.

That's a little to early mate Cheesy

We have seen how impressive the teams in the playoffs this season, new faces with new stars in each respective team. For sure they will going to get better next season especially the Dallas Mavericks, Memphis Grizzlies, and the Boston Celtics which is also a participant in the Finals this season. For now, let's enjoy the last 2 remaining games in this series and see whoever wins the title.

Talking about the defense, it wasn't enough made by the Celtics for now and they have a lot of flaws in this game. It's 3 times this series below 100 in their final scores.
On the other side, all of Curry's teammates made great contributions, and they all worked together to win the game.

My friend said it will not go far until game 7. He added that Kerr and the gang will not let the Celtics steal another win, because of the trauma that was made by Lebron's team way back in 2016 lol.

Game 5 was explosive for the Warriors tonight. It showed on how dominating the performance of all the Warriors team gathered around the game earlier. Even if they try to double or triple team Curry in order to prevent him from making his plays, his teammates compensate by attracting defenders and making plays after plays with all the defenders chasing around them.

Like what I previously mentioned, I do think that the Celtics cannot handle the offensive pressure that GSW puts to their defense and plays. As much as I want the Warriors to win at their home court, I do think that game 6 would be decided in their favor.

How about Jordan Pool last night? 14 minutes on the court, 14 points on the board. Not a bad outing. It was nice to see the rest of the team step up with Curry having an off night. Wiggins and Thomson looked great, and Green was a monster on defense.

Thursday is going to be fun, but I expect the Celtics to come out swinging on their home court. Losing at home in game six will not be an option, and honestly I'm being a bit greedy here. I would love noting more than to see the Warriors win game 7 at home. Story book ending.

I'm also wondering who that player is but there's no doubt, both of them contributes a lot for todays win and now they are on the lead to take the Championship. Let's see if Warriors can take the title and prove those speculator before wrong especially about their lower chance of winning here. Warriors is great, Steph alone can really put a big show and a huge help for the warriors, I can't wait to see them with their new trophy, they are heading for this.

Ohh that's what I mean my bad Jordan poole and Andrew Wiggins good team up but in these two player Wiggins ahead he can carry his team like his performance, as a young player all I can say is that this player have a good opportunity and have many good achievements someday. For me not only this game but in their upcoming games Wiggins still can made a good record if curry and Thompson out of the floor the two lethal weapon will enter which is Wiggins and Jordan poole.

They will not be in the finals if they really don't have a good bench players at the first place. The inexperience is one thing but the only reason why Celtics bench looks like weak is because they are facing GSW with a solid players including bench, Imagine Iggy, Payton, Poole, Porter are on there bench while this guys are monster that can be position on starter line-up while Celtics bench only has White and Williams that actually making contribution on the 3rd to 4th quarter of the game.

Agree with that, they are inexperienced because they have not won an NBA championship together but their journey is way harder than the Warriors to be in the NBA Finals.

1st round - swept the Nets
2nd round - beat the defending champion
and 3rd round - they beat the Miami Heat who also went in the NBA finals before against the LA Lakers.

Game 7 is possible but it's also possible that the Warriors will finish the series in game 6.

Everyone stepped up when Curry needs help from his teammates.
It was a low scoring game but I'm impressed with how the Warriors prepared for this game.

Wiggins 26 points
Thompson 21 points
Poole 14 points.
Payton II 15 points,

Enough for the Warriors to beat the Celtics.

Celtics don't have enough depth. I know they've reached the finals and it should generally be enough but they are lacking someone who can ease the pressure off of the starters. The starters for Boston have always played well together but against a very sturdy lineup of Warriors, they need someone coming off of the bench to score big. Which I don't see happening. Sad

They have a good bench IMO, they are just inexperienced but this series is not over yet, if Celtics win game 6, then things will be different although the Warriors still control the home court advantage. Game 7 is going to be a full defensive game, both teams will play hard to earn the championship.

You’re right they do have a good bench, and I also agree it’s not over but the experience that comes with the Golden State Warriors having “been there, done that” I think is just too much for the young Celtics. Certainly says something when Curry misses all 9 of his three point shots and they still handily win.
