Final shot for the Warriors...either they walk out with a win, or this game is going to overtime.

I'm not too upset. Once KG is 100% and we start playing defense we'll start winning again. Still we managed to take one of the best home teams down to the wire.
I'm a little concerned about their defense. They gave up a lot of points in the last two games. Hopefully, some of it is due to KG getting back into the swing of things. It just seems like the help defense was really lacking. Guys were getting beat constantly, and too often that opened up a clear path to the basket because nobody came to help. I hope that improves because this team prides itself on the defensive end.
As mrsister just said, we need to get back to that smothering *** defense we have been playing all season long
We also gotta knock our damn free throws. The one player who needs to improve their free throws the most is Rondo- if he wants to help this team and become a better overall player. There's no excuse for shooting 61% from the line, let alone if your a point guard. He is the 4th best player on this team and logs 30 minutes a game. Hes the only one outside of the big 3 that does that.
Tony Allen is a great sparkplug for us, he has been for the last month and a half
