LOL

Make no mistakes about it, this was a poorly reffed game. But we lost to bad decisions down the stretch and too many god damn turnovers. My happiness is, we won't give 19 turnovers to anyone in the playoffs, and Klay won't be as cold as he was today.

Many online are questioning Curry's decision to pass to Klay instead of KD but I won't. That was the absolute right play. Only issue is Klay does not pump fake enough and on cold days like this with contested shots, made the chucking up shots look pretty bad.

My question now to the NBA is, are we still hurting parity in the league? It will be a shame if that was to change in the playoffs but I won't be surprised when it does. And where is Byke when I need prayers for Salty Mark and JVG to just die with their biased commentary. I hate listening to them in Warriors' games. Yeesh.

Bad game by Steph but it is what it is. McCaw has regressed in my eyes: they better find out what is happening in his personal life. Kerr should better be saving something for the playoffs. Running sets for Klay to chuck shots up in the final minutes better be the distraction. 67 wins still. Minimum.

Out!

2 of Lebron's blocks on Curry were fouls. The other "block" on Draymond was a foul as well but that would have been Bron's fifth foul charge.

Anyways, our resident petulant dolt cannot take the banter he keeps giving. Shameless.

Stfu!! You said you weren't a Cavs fan. You can't be taking Ls, finding it easy to trashtalk, find it hard to swallow your vomit and then come to give flimsy excuses. And lest I forget, it's bad that you still have to slob on your King's cob. Pick a struggle and don't be a Coward about it.
That is why I ignored the phool.


You can't be a "neutral" and want to troll.

Imagine standing on a moral high ground yet you may most likely support Lakers next season and somehow still maintain that you are not a bandwagoner.

If the bench can keep it the same atleast, then the starters will win it. But if they do what they did against Clippers and Raptors? lipsrsealed

Heart breaking as Sanchez's preferred destination pull out of the race for his signature. Sanchez and his agent blew the transfer with their greed. How on earth do you expect City to make you the highest paid player on already crowned champions!!!, you are not going to be the best/ most important player on the roster.

I just want him out, I don't care where he goes, I want him out before our next game. His attitude in the locker room has not helped either and I can see him butting heads with Mou if he ends up at United.

Whoever gets Sanchez should know they are getting an unhappy and unmotivated player because he only wanted the City move and now that they have pulled out, his ego would only force him to accept a move elsewhere.
You are so correct.

More so, Alexis' antics has made Pep question his commitment. A rich player like him should have not let his agent use him like Seluk almost messed Yaya Toure up.

Shut your stupid mouth up. You're a larriors bandwagoner, in simpler terms you're a certified ret ard! In a perfect world people like you will be in a mental asylum not given the freedom to go about spreading your ape opinions all over the internet.

That being said, a fan is someone who supports a person or a team whether he/they win(s) or lose(s). Bandwagoners follow the winning team or the team in trend. They are shameless gutless spineless scum, just like you. But like i said, certified dimwit. I dont expect you to know the difference.
But you are not a Cavs fan.

I told you before: the only person I have chatted with that is stupiider than you is Ersan and I have a feeling you can outdo him.

We already said it here that dude was stat-padding. But trust our resident Lebron lickspittle to form voltron and defend his majesty's universe. I am happy at the turn of events though, intelligent as Lebrenda is, he knows he is not winning another ring so he might as well chase personal glory.

Meanwhile, anyone who supports the Cavs is not a bandwagoner nor is anyone who backpacks and joins the bandwagon of 'anywhere Lebron goes we go'. How convenient.

LOL.

Someone is falling down a flight of storeys on a hundred storey building and as he falls from 100...99..98..keeps thanking God that he is not dead yet.

The fool should simply wait till he lands on the ground floor then we would see who he will be thanking then.

The summary is...let eventual losers celebrate City's worst performance of the season AWAY at Liverpool and losing only 4-3.

Some other person draws ahome to Burnley it is because he did not buy enough but when City lose away to Liverpool - they have been exposed.

You can't make this type of stupiid sh!t up. grin

Let them win. Watch how another day Warriors will turn to a super star team and their coach does nothing but watch them.

CP3 was breaking ankles of our bigs. The one on West was so funny...I cracked up a bit. They are a strong unit, but I have always reckoned we are more than 2 notches above them and are better than them at what they are trying to do. The flukey way we squandered a 14-pt lead the first time we played and lost by 1 made people forget.

This KD-less GSW sometimes reminds me of who we were in 2015/16 when we won 73 games in the regular season. We look a different outfit offensively with Curry and look like defensive juggernauts when KD runs things. I think the proposition we still serve to the NBA should not be disregarded with "but Harden did not play". KD was out as well.

All in all, really impressed by Klay in the last stretch of games. He can be inconsistent but boy that guy can shoot the 3-ball. As for Curry, still no words. No words. No words.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Eruditor: 11:49am On Jan 04, 2018
Morata is as good as his next miss. The one's who hated him before will celebrate his failure over their team. The one's who supported him before will do the opposite. The vicious cycle will continue.

He has missed easy chances and scored difficult ones but let us hold unto the easy chances as it serves our narrative.

I do remember Baka piling one to Cech who parried and Hazard placing one on Cech's right leg. I do remember Morata trying to dink one over Cech and Cech making a save for the last.

I still believe he troubled a weak Arsenal defence and missed only that one glaring chance in the first half. But he is the reason CFC did not win. Not because Thibaut became 7ft to save Alexis' shot. Or because Laca got indecisive once and forced a great save out of another.

Not also because Ozil did not dink the ball over Courtouis like he had done against Huddersfield and rather squared it to Alexis.

Or not because Arsenal clearly dominated that midfield.

You see, when you forgo all these irrelevant things, Morata becomes the reason CFC did not win.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: The Red & White Army: 2025/2026 EPL Champions! by Eruditor: 10:57pm On Jan 03, 2018
Arsenal have every reason to feel hard-done by. That was not a penalty at all.

Credit to the ref for trying to make the game flow and good game overall, but Arsenal created their own chances while Chelsea just capitalized on tragic poor defending from Arsenal.

I don't think any defender in the world can be worse than Calum Chambers. His decision making is suspect and for a player as slow as he is, how in the world is he a footballer for a big club without any presence of mind.

Chelsea fans might feel that Morata missed seaters - and maybe the first one was a howler but Arsenal can hold unto Thibaut's miraculous saves all game.

I still think at 1-0 Arsenal would have gone on to win convincingly, so before anyone blames Alvaro, they better blame the Ref.

On the back of the poor defending by Arsenal especially after equalizing, a draw was a fair result. But Arsenal need to do better against big teams. We have the United, Liverpool and now Chelsea game to question why Wenger refuses to work on his defence.

He comes back and we go back to scoring 130+.
He comes back and drops 38 points in 26mins. 26mins fam. 26mins.

Isaiah Thomas can play but please this Curry disrespect is nauseating.

Donovan Mitchell can really ball...one for the future, but he still has that rookie inconsistency. All of them have it in fact but some others are more exposed because their teams depend on them more.

"He has [Pablo] Zabaleta and [Aleksandar] Kolarov - two very good players but more than 30 years old. He wants to replace, he doesn't replace with two, he replaces with three.

"One from Tottenham [Kyle Walker], one from Monaco [Benjamin Mendy] and one from Real Madrid [Danilo] as an example. Can we buy six or seven players at the same time?

"Can we invest £600-700million? No. So, it's difficult. I think the last years, the market is going in such a direction or you belong to one of these clubs where there is no limit and you just buy what you want and there is no limit, there is no financial fair play, there is nothing, you do what you want - or it's hard."

- JOSE MOURINHO
Jose the Hoodwinker!

City lost;

Zabaleta, Kolarov, Sagna, Clichy. That is 2 LBs and 2 RBs and they replaced them with 3. Pep wanted another LB but he could not get it. You don't see him whinning about it.

I'm sure no one here means he is iniesta's reincarnation, Andres is too unique n light years ahead of him but Isco is sure very talented n will perform much better in a barca team compared to coutinho who is equally great
I truly do not know how to assess Isco's game with us because I question his decision-making alot. And the dude is a selfish petulant player. I have seen him couple of times throw a dismissive hand after he is being scolded by a teammate for not passing.

He can play out of his skin, but one must mix every skill-set into the right decisions to become something that can make up for what Ini was doing for us.

One can say Paulinho is not "fixing" our midfield deficiences, but we did not necessarily need an Ini-protoype. Just like we may never find another Messi. We just need someone to do an evolutionary job. Same way, Messi replaced Dinho as our talisman but did not need to become him reincarnate. He simply created his own lane and his tenure has been more succesful.

In that sense, I think Coutinho (barring injuries) can be that player in our midfield. He has mad gravity and will pull players away from Messi. He is a genuine goal threat from setpieces and long range shooting. He is quick and can dribble out of tight spaces as well. And guess what? He actually makes better decisions than Isco with better passing accuracy to boot.

Whether Isco can improve on his own deficiencies, I do not doubt at all. But will he? That is the million dollar question.

. Our premier point guard and rim protector didn't play last night not any excuse but at some point we managed to hold a lead by 26 without em not until d final quarter were some reckless decisions were made from our side and refs.the first call was clearly a flop by smart however,props up to smart for forcing d best ISO player in the league to shoot 25% from d field.harden lost dis one for us.but comparing Houston to okc is just off.Houston is ranked 2nd and 3rd in offense and defense in the league,miles ahead of okc
Look up the stats bro numbers don't lie.in a best of 7 series okc don't stand a chance not with their poor shooting percentage and irregular system coordination.a loss should bring up such conclusions considering d fact DAT our squad was short of its alphas.

finally someone saying what really irks me abt Mou, why didn’t we hear all these when he was beating underdogs and scoring 4 goals while at it. It was Mou masterclass then, now that they’ve been found out once again just as it went down last season it’s now the fault of the players, the board, the club sponsors everything else except Mou.
Last season Rooney was the scape goat. Mind u Rooney is in same goal tally (10 goals) with the 75M Lukaku despite playing less minutes than Lukaku and playing in a lower budget team.

Y’all keep finding excuses for Mou till u run out of em.
Same people who will praise a man who won carling cup and finished 6th, will turn around and mock Wenger who finished with a bigger trophy (FA Cup) and 5th (9 points ahead of the "non-fraud" ).

Mans cannot bully his way into a title like the past when Chelsea needed any sort of title to validate the spendings of their then new owner.

Time has come for true managers to stand and be counted and we are seeing moral and philosophical victories like "we are 10 points better this season than last". As if, you take stock of your achievements/improvements after 20 games.

Especially when the propensity to even miss out on the 2nd placed podium is ever-increasing.
