    The only argument to toss Gobert is probably why they tossed Klay and McDaniels: to cool everyone down. Honestly without the other shenanigans, Klay and McDaniels get techs and it’s over. But you have a scrum and Dreymond takes it too far, so everyone has to go. Gobert has Klay around the chest to break it up, so keeping him in the game was fine. But I could argue just to keep it even and send a message, a two-for-two ejection wouldn’t have been egregious but certainly the refs got it right.

    The thing about basketball, is some of these players are so tall, they'd have to bend down to grab a guy in anything but a headlock.

    They look like they dumped all the Crayolas on the floor and let the kid who could stay inside the lines do the work.

    Yeah, I'm doubling down. ;)

    That was probably 1 game for the choke hold and 4 for being Draymond.

    Or four for not choking his ass out. Dray ain’t no Connor McGregor.

    Whatever, if the W's don't find any scoring besides Curry, they're toast (even the rookie last night (23) outscored anything that Klay or Wiggins has done all year).

    Pop gets cranky and pulls a Sam Wyche with the home crowd.

    Seeing tonight's garish color combinations for the tournament games has me curious: How many floors do NBA teams have? Do they constantly repaint or otherwise decorate them?
