Guys please stop with the overreaction here. While the Warriors are down 3-1 it's not as bleak as you make it seem. Let's all calm down and think about this logically. The Warriors won't lose game 5 at home nor will they lose 3 in a row. This means the series will wind up being 3-2 OKC going back to Chesapeake. So game 6 will be very important which in effect, will ultimately define the series and if any team can come back from a 3-2 deficit I'm willing to put all my eggs in the basket that the Warriors can get it done. Remember, this is the best team in NBA history we're talking, Yes, better than the 95-96 Bulls evidenced by GSW's 73-9 record. I'm not in any way worried and I'll tell you why...
The NBA wants this series to go 7 games. If you watched the games that the Warriors have lost the refs have been heavily favoring the Thunder. Blatant fouls go uncalled for against the Warriors while marginal ticky tack calls were made in favor of Thunder. It's very hard to beat a team like the Thunder when you're simultaneously facing KD, Westbrook & Co. and the damn refs specifically you Mr.Crawford. Here's a perfect example of what I'm talking about:
Until the Warriors officially lose the series, I kindly ask all the premature doom and gloom crowd to simmer down and as Aaron Rodgers best said it just "R-E-L-A-X". It ain't over until the fat lady sings and I'm super duper confident this goes down to the wire and Warriors win in 7 in an absolute barn burner. Remember, the NBA is the only sport where officiating has a huge determining factor on the outcome of the game. I don't want to go all conspiracy theorist on you, but I do have a sneaking suspicion the stretching of this series to 7 is what the NBA "powers that be" want i.e ratings bonanza and commercial ad revenue etc.
