Utah put up a helluva fight against the Dubs. One of the tightest games the Warriors have had this season. Jazz have a very sound defense.

I honestly thought the streak would end tonight (said it a few days ago). It didn't. 82-0 incoming!

Well, he's 13th in the league in RAPM right now even with his poor efficiency and 3rd on just offense. He's just back to playing awful defense.

There really isn't much defending him after 18 games this year, but I still would judge him based on his career, not a slow start to a season and I'd also see where we are after 82 games.

He came out recently and said he should be playing less minutes (he leads the NBA in minutes at 39.7 a night) in order to conserve energy, which would allow him to be better "on both sides of the floor", alluding to his atrocious defensive effort.

So yeah he sucks at defense because he plays too much basketball.

Lakers had lead, ran unit with Kobe at PF and Bass at Center for 8 minutes. That tells you all you need to know.

Lakers are trying to out tank the masters. Dangerous game.

Kobe looking like Kobe for the first time all year, Lakers giving back that game they picked up on the Sixers yesterday.

DC crowd chanting "Lets go Lakers" and "Kobe" lol, must suck to be a Wizard.

Last couple of games the away crowds chanting "KOBE" and cheering like crazy whenever he makes a shot has been crazy.

I truly think we are witnessing greatness here. Curry might be the best shooter that ever lived.

His release is the best I ever seen, and he has unlimited range. Not only that but he can get points in the paint consistently which makes his shooting all the more effective.

The only thing that'll hurt his legacy is he didn't make the jump from "All Star" to "Best Player in the League" until he turned 26.

What he is doing now though is simply amazing. He's the best and most entertaining player in the NBA and no one else is even close.
