It will be mighty tough to win in there.

We have to go 1-1, we can't fall behind before coming back here for game 3.

5 games. If we take it to 6 I'll be downright giddy for next year.

We are going in with emotions riding high though, and I love that.

I think we can hold home court. Winning there will be difficult.

I don't think its crazy to think we can win 2...I say realistically GSW in 6




But what I really mean is Pels in 3!

Would love to see the Pels take it to at least 6, but I think the Warriors winning in 5 is more likely.

Obviously 100% stone cold lead pipe lock guarantee Pelicans win in 4 games.

I'm calling it...

PELS 4-2


We ride this momentum to win the series.. It won't be easy, and it'll be a grind, but it CAN be done

GS takes it in 5 games. We win our first home game to draw it 2-1 but they take over.

Just happy to see us make the playoffs. Big things are in store next season.

GSW in 5 is realistic.
I just want us to be very competitive.

I guess 2 wins.
But is GS as dominant as their record suggests? The Pels division seems like it would deflate records. Pels were pretty good against good teams and they're healthy for the first time all year.

It is realistic that the Pels can take this series in 7. I think the Rockets are the best team in the West, and would be a nightmare matchup for the Pels (Howard vs Asik).

Jrue is going to be key to slowing down Curry.

We'll play them tough I'm thinking GS in 6..... Jrue needs to play some great defense on those guards

What were people's expectations vs the defending champs who had lost 3 games total in march and april?


ANYTHING can happen when you have a MVP and a strong supporting cast.

Anyone remember the 67-15 Dallas Mavericks vs the 42-40 Golden State Warriors?

4-2 series win for the Baron Davis led Warriors

Why NOT the Pels?

Warriors Make History, Close Out Mavs

In maybe the greatest playoff upset in NBA history, the Golden State Warriors completely dismantled the No. 1 seed Dallas Mavericks on Thursday en route to a 111-86 Game 6 victory in front of a boisterous home crowd.

Stephen Jackson played like a man possessed, drilling 7-of-8 3-pointers to total 33 points. Hobbled by a strained hamstring, Baron Davis gave an inspired performance by tallying 20 points, 10 rebounds and six assists, while his former college roommate, Matt Barnes, collected 16 points, 11 rebounds and seven assists. It is only the third time in NBA history that an No. 8 seed has bested a No. 1 seed, and the first time ever in a seven-game series.

Dallas, which won a franchise-best 67 games this season and was the defending Western Conference Champions, was led by Jerry Stackhouse's and Josh Howard's 20 points. MVP candidate Dirk Nowitzki struggled, shooting 2-of-13 from the field, finishing with eight points and 10 rebounds. The Mavs join the 1994 Sonics and the 1999 Heat as the only other top seeds to fall to an No. 8 seed in the playoffs.

The Warriors face the winner of the Jazz-Rockets series in the second round, which begins on Monday.

Houston would actually be a good matchup for us.

And that series would be very similar in terms of upsets.

I think Pels lose in 5. I would be happy with 6 though. We will be an underdog every game of the series.
