Between last week



and last night



the Warriors are about as fun as watching sports gets. Like, turn your League Pass over because they're on, must-watch, flat-out entertaining basketball.

They're not only entertaining, but they're REALLY good.

Some of the old Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets teams were entertaining, but weren't nearly this good at basketball.

Anyone who likes the NBA and doesn't have a team should immediately go all-in on the Warriors. I'm talking jerseys, tattoos, trips to San Fran to watch them live etc. They are so god damn fun and likable it's infuriating. Great jerseys, best style of play, great city, great fans, fun coach, the funnest superstars and they are very young. You have like 10 years of pure, western conference basketball ahead of you.

Andrew Bogut is not likable. He's all elbows and Bill Laimbeer. [expletive] him.

Otherwise I agree with everyone. Good move not trading Thompson for Love.

I have been meaning to catch a Warriors game in one of my visits to my sister. She's not into hoops but her now ex is and I'm sure he'd love to take me to a game.

Damn, I just checked the schedule and they have a game against the Hawks at home when I hope to be out there in March.

Even if you have a team, there's about a 90% chance that if the Warriors are on you'll be more entertained. Watching them is like walking the streets in Manhattan--you have that feeling that at any moment, literally anything can happen.

I'm going to see them in April at the Clippers, I'm pretty stoked. What's really funny is that for that game Clippers tickets are, depending on where they are, 2-4 times more expensive than Lakers tickets that week. I never thought I'd see a time when Clips tix are > Lakers tix.

Zach Lowe on Simmons' podcast. Wow:

"They are entitled and pouty. When you call around to other teams for perspective on the Clippers... people freaking hate the Clippers. Everyone in the league is rooting against the Clippers... Lots of people have said some version of 'Everyone is so tired of watching Chris Paul's [expletive].'"

I don't think there's ever been a single, likable Doc Rivers team.
