Hey, since there’s no football news to speak of, and I’m not really into hockey, the talk of the Bay Area is the Golden State Warriors.
Frankly, the Cleveland Cavaliers must be thinking, what the fuck? We hold Steph and Klay to a combined 8-27, and a combined total of 20 points (lowest all season) and still get blown out? James, Love, and Irving scored 66 points compared to Stpeh, Klay, and Green combined for a paltry 36 and the game is basically garbage time most of the 4th quarter? Disheartening to say the least.
Tale of the game was the benches. 45 to 10 was a giant advantage for the Dubs. To lose that handily has to be a tough pill to swallow for LeBron and Co. Funny thing is, Andre Igluodala had his own Steve Adams moment when St. Mary’s alum Matthew Dellavedova smacked Iggy in the jigglies. After the common (really?) foul, the Warriors, up 3 at the time, went on a nice run starting with Iggy hitting a 3 right after the play and never looked back.
Needless to say, there are a couple ways to look at this. BronBron called out his bench after the game, saying they have to do a better job. They can hang their hat on the fact they shut down the Splash Bros, and think they can shut our bench down as they played out of their minds. Problem with that is, it is a rare occurrence when the rainmakers get shut down 2 games in a row. Both rarely get shut down at the same time, so there may be something to that, but I’d be worried if I was Cleveland about those two. The Warriors will likely not get 20 from Shaun or 11 from the Brazilian Blur, but Iggy wil contribute, and the Splash Bros should combine for about 60 next game.
Most encouraging thing to me was to see Harrison Barnes contributing inside and making shots. I said it before the series that the Cavs are not in our class. I think Portland is better than the Cavs. OKC as well.
Probably saw Santana 10 times in the 70s and 80s. Santana was a last-minute addition to the show cuz someone bailed out. he was petty much unknown outside of the SF area.
Yeah, John the regular season is way too long to have 4 rounds of playoffs. If you are lucky enough, you get to play 20-25 games to get through those 4 rounds. They could cut 12 games off the schedule and it wouldn’t affect things very much.
At least the refs were calling it pretty loose. Good to see them playing rather than shooting free throws. Both games have been called cleanly.
Curry reveals he’s avoiding the Olympics to rest his knee. Other players are concerned about the Zika virus.
Glad to hear that .
The Niners have the worst roster in the NFL according to PFF/ESPN.
Oh yippee.
It’s so sad that it’s actually funny. And yet, Baalky is still here.
Santana has been a favorite of mine since forever. Saw him in 2006 . Great concert.
Fuck pro football focus. We’re a .500 team at least
It could happen, Rob. BSPN just reported the Niners gave the worst roster in the NFL.
Too bad they don’t play.
If the CAVS win anything it will be this next game in Cleveland tonight. If not it’s adios baby!
Tomorrow night….
No, they don’t have a prayer. The Warriors haven’t played well at all, and have smoked the Cavs.
Tomorrow’s game will be an even bigger beat-down. Cleve is soft and slow. Their biggest run is like 6 points.
Test

New avatar test !!!!
And ….
Can you guys stop this Warriors crap? Can we get back to football? As you guys all know Gabbert had success because he stayed in the pocket more, allowing his line to protect him, why don’t most of you get this? Gabbert did check downs, because that’s what you do, who cares how many times, he came in, got the job done didn’t he? You guys continue to ride Kaeps D, curious, why didn’t any other team want him? Could it be we’re the only team out there not taking things seriously? Just wondering.
IMO Kap beats out Gabbert and starts this year. I like Gabbert too but still think Kap’s ceiling is higher given his unique skill set V !!!
No matter what happens or who plays QB for the 49ers we’ll always have V around. The “Home” has given him a lifetime pass and somehow despite all efforts he will be part of this blog. He somehow finds a way out of Chuck’s filter to emerge once again.
Like most blood-sucking vermin, they are hard to wipe out completely.
Right V. 3-5 is getting the job done. 2 of those wins came on blown FGs. So Blabbert was 2 plays from 1-7.
Gabbert takes us to 3-13. Kappy could get this team to .500.
Gabbert got bitch slapped by Johnny Manziel and the Cleveland Browns.
Christ. Don’t remind me!
You gotta be kidding me, Chuck. Kaepernick is going to have to show that his head is on straight before even considering him a viable option. He was so fucked up in the head after last season it’s a wonder he wasn’t in therapy.
All I’m saying is we have a much better shot with Kappy than Gabbert.
It probably won’t happen with CK, but it’s a certainty if Gabbert starts.
The Cavs shook up their starting lineup and absolutely blew the doors and windows off the Warriors train in the 1st. The Warriors made it a game by halftime, then the Cavs blew it open again in the 3rd.
Well, that’s why I said in 5 not 4.
Well , Steph played another shit game. I’m getting a little concerned about him. His defense was decent Enoch but he’s getting knocked around a ton.
He definitely looks tired.
He got pulled by Kerr he was so bad and he agreed with that move.
Right. This might concern me more if we didn’t do this same shit vs OKC.
