Klay Thompson Injury: Warriors Guard’s Status Uncertain For Celtics Game

“Yes”, Antetokounmpo responded. “Hopefully they’ll still have the streak”. If they break the Lakers’ streak, what else do they have to play for?

Antetokounmpo admires what the Warriors have accomplished.

They started off strong early in the game and it was all they needed.

When asked for his prognosis, Thompson said: “I’m optimistic about life and Friday”.

Despite their bravado, the Globetrotters did admit they were a little nervous about Golden State catching up to them. Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant had 32 points and 10 rebounds to steer the Thunder to a 125-88 win at Memphis. We play with a lot of confidence and flair, but I think we’re a humble team. They’re doing something very historic.

“We play an up-tempo style, which means games can get into the 100s on each side, but we still have to involve our defensive principles”, Pacers coach Frank Vogel said. But it was to no avail as Golden State marched on. Bbut instead of dwelling on a shortened offseason, or letting the fact that Steve Kerr was not strolling the sidelines create an escape clause that allowed them to lose focus and stumble out the starting blocks, they have come together in pursuit of one common goal – winning that second ring. “I want to be just like Steph (Curry) when I grow up – just a God fearing man”. Some NBA pundits even picked the Pacers to snap “the streak”, but it takes more than a few months to recreate the chemistry the Warriors have.

Golden State has won four straight in the series, with Thompson finishing with 31 points in a 114-111 home victory January 25 and Stephen Curry scoring 37 in a 106-101 win at Boston on March 1.

It is really a high mountain to climb for Curry. “The insane part is his ceiling seems to keep climbing”. You just got to understand that. Not everybody can do that. “All it takes is for a couple of shots to go in”.

Bucks forward Johnny O’Bryant has a great deal of respect for Curry and what he has accomplished, too.

“He had eight 3’s at the half”, Curry said. Anywhere sports are being discussed, that’s where you’ll find him. But he notes that those conversations never lead to anger and “never manifest into something detrimental to the team”. “He’s playing at such a high level”.

So, who’s to say that the Golden State Warriors can’t top the 72-10 Bulls record? It was also the key in defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Finals last season.

“This is a business, and because of the salary cap and things like that, it was time for me to move on, and that’s what I did”, Lee said. “It worked for them previous year in the playoffs, so why change anything?” “There isn’t another Draymond Green, another Klay, another Andre”.
