Actually 9 teams in NBA history have came back to win the series. And about 225 have lost. I believe if any team can do it, these Warriors can.

Game 6 has the chance to be epic. If OKC can't pull it out, this thing is over.

But OKC has been the better team in this series by a fair margin.

Two legacies on the line. Biggest game I can remember from a historiCal perspective since game 6 in miami in 2013. So hyped.

I hope OKC wins. I think it'll be close. I think it'll be a fight.

Curry and draymond just need to shut their mouths and play. They look like little punk kids out there.

They are little punks!

Wonder how many people got suckered into taking OKC and the points tonight? The Warriors will need to play their best all around game of the season Saturday to keep this dream season alive. Curry needs to go off like he did when he hit 12 3's against them earlier this season. OKC will come out fired up and the Warriors can't afford to get down by 20 in the first half or it's a wrap.

jesus you're one of the most horrible homers ive ever seen post...

did you watch the final 2 minutes at all??

what little chance they had at a comeback was shot all to hell by KD...3 straight posessions...jacked up 3...TO..jacked up shot in front of the rim...

You do see how easy he gets to the rim right? Do you actually watch the game or just like to say the same stuff over and over regardless of reality?

The chest pounding almost leading to a turnover was just hysterical.

He's exciting to watch, but he's sure looked questionable throughout most of this series.

Yeah saw him running and throwing himself on the ground after every single drive. Flopping like a fish and getting the AND1

I thought about saying something similar, or even just posting videos of him breaking guys' ankles off the dribble and hitting jumpers, but figured why bother..

Agree, I think he has bought into his own (often deserved) hype a bit too much. Yeah, you're one of the greatest shooters and ballhandlers ever, but you don't need to be your own hype man too

Unfortunately this is usually the case. Saturday calls for a monster game by the MVP to have a chance. I wish he'd take the number of shots Durant and Westbrook took tonight.

Yeah, you and I each noticed that and posted at the same time.

I've never seen that.

Pounding the chest before the game is over?

Adams was like, "are you friggin kidding me?" And almost took the ball.

Steph has no reason to act like that now. And draymond yelling and flexing at ibaka in the third? Webber thought he was acting like an idiot. You're losing 3-1 and flexing at people? Get a clue.

GS - I don't hate you. Financially I have way more to gain from you winning. But you're ridiculous. ACT LIKE YOU'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE.

I think you hit it. I see nothing wrong with celebrating once the game is over...but he almost singlehandedly cost them the game and series down the stretch with his boneheaded arrogance.

So much if this sort of stuff. Ploughing into people after a play. I'm over draymond at this point.

Felt like he could have been called for about 10 techs too.

[LoveItCards]

I may leave for good one day but trust me I will not leave you guys alone as The HoLy MoLy spirit will be with you forever to assist in your times of need.

They have NOTHING to lose for any non-basketball plays. Might as well use it at the maximum.

[tristan20]

Draymond still playing Game 6 lol

You need to win Game 5 first before Game 6.

Fair point. That seems to be what we've learned at this point.

Though if the NBA calls draymond for one more flagrant, he will miss a game.
