Peebee, you said the fans wasted their money watching a blowout.(at the time)
I am saying that I'll take a playoff win any way I can, and I'm sure the Denver fans would agree.

that was some real crybaby shit from mark jackson after the game. curry has fucking scorched denver this entire series so of course they're going to get physical with him. denver's only mistake was waiting until they were down 3-1 to do it. giving someone an elbow and/or a bump as they're going through the lane is a common practice in the playoffs, especially if it's someone who has single-handedly destroyed your team for four straight games. it obviously affected curry and while this is his first time dealing with something like this, i'm disappointed that his coach was "aww poor baby" instead of "get used to it, man up and overcome it". like shaq said after the game, there was nothing dirty about any of that shit. if anything, bogut's shot at faried's neck was the dirtiest thing of the game and even that was relatively tame. emerging stars like curry should be encouraged to play above that shit and continue to do what they do, not whine and complain to refs each time they get bumped a little bit.
Mark Jackson is the worst. Fouling Houston so they didn't get the 3pt record was pretty bad. Saying he would pray for Collins family while a gay guy signs his check was bad. Crying about people being too rough on Curry? Fuck him... All his big men throw cheap shots.
That Fareed bump on Curry was really not that bad though. They kept showing the replay like it was the bynum/barea foul. I've bumped into people harder walking out of a Whole foods.
also i understand pb's frustration. for example that faried bump to curry when steph was just deliberately cutting through the lane while the play was just setting up and he didn't even have the ball or his eyes on the ball was so obvious. and though jax has this conservative douchey side to him i don't think he's a conspiracy theorist (regarding his comments that the nuggz were sending hitmen at curry and that some of the nuggz players told him they had nothing to do with it)

This is true. And as a coach, once you instruct a player to act like a goon, or see one of your guys commit a similarly dirty foul, the right to bitch about the other team's "hit men" goes out the window. All your points about Steph needing to learn to play through contact are accurate too. And the reality is that so long as teams know that they can get Steph off his game by being physical with him, that's exactly what they are gonna do. So it becomes the responsibility of Jax to channel his energy into coaching his team past adversity, rather than getting caught up in the emotion of the moment.
My comment about the game being trash was a joke yo. My team was being blown out. I made the joke from the perspective of a disgusted Warriors fan. Obviously any Denver fan who paid $3 to see their team win a playoff game is gonna feel differently.
Anyway, my issue with the refs this series is how tightly the games have been called. It's playoff basketball. Let the players play like big boys. Racking up fouls on the big men for off the ball fouls for boxing or setting hard screens is bullshit. These are two teams that play an uptempo style and thrive off of momentum. It's felt all series long like the refs have prevented that from building, on either side, by calling too many ticky-tack fouls.

No one wants to be known as the team someone got a record against. You're really stupid.

Then play some goddamn defense.
. If you give up 23 3's, 140 total point, and lose by 31 the last thing you should be worried about is what the record is.

So you're saying they should've just said "fuck it, you guys earned it so go ahead and get that record against us"?Fuck that
My problem last night was more with the refs than the "cheap shots", which I really didn't see much of. I just wish it would've been called the same on both ends, and not softbatch.

Who said they should just let them get the record? Try to play defense if you don't want to give up records.
Ok, actually, the one where Faried tried so trip Steph on his bum ankle was pretty freaking dirty, push him a bit, bump him, whatever...but going after an injury like that is some BS.
Guess he did learn while he was in the booth. He's deflected all the attention away from the loss and to the physical play of the Nugs. Pretty smart if you ask me.
Felton great at running PnR and really forcing KG to choose between giving him layup or ally to Chandler. Melo has really impressed me this series with his 1-1 D. His footwork has been great and staying in front of everyone he is covering. I have always wondered (not really, I know its effort) why he couldn't do this his whole career when his footwork on offense is so great.
I completely forgot Courtney Lee was on the team. What a disapointment. Bradley also completely lost confidence and even his D has been off. He is more understandable though since he is being forced to play out of position.
omg i stopped watching at 11-0 and proceeded to play ball with pop and another friend who is a diehard knicks fan and i told them i couldnt come chill after cuz i couldnt justify ignoring my family to go watcg a shitty knicks blowout.
