What’s the buzz on Twitter?
Kenny Beecham @KOT4Q Harden has been amazing this OT. Draymond trying to draw contact on that open layup might be the close of this game.
(Im watching on delay. Please dont spoil) – 6:30 PM
Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS I assume the Warriors take care of business on Tuesday (assuming Jimmy’s ok?). If so, Warriors-Rockets is a killer first-round series.
Amen on Curry. Draymond and Brooks beefing. Ime’s first playoff series in Houston coming against the team that beat him in the 2022 Finals. – 6:27 PM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU Once again, Steve Kerr sees his offense in the toilet and has to call a timeout.
This time, Clippers have their kingmakers on the court making tough ass shots, and lead 90-86 with 9:03 left in the regular season. – 5:35 PM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU Steve Kerr challenged and won the challenge on out of bounds call. Harden turnover.
Both teams have one challenge remaining. – 5:21 PM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU A 7-0 Golden State run gave them back the lead, though Steve Kerr calls timeout after a Harden-Zubac alley-oop cuts that lead to 70-69 with 7:20 left in 3rd quarter
I don’t want to say it’s simple… but everyone in here knows that if the Clippers turn the ball over they’re done – 5:09 PM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU I see that the Clippers are on their “We’re going to be at our best when the top of the scouting report is on the floor”
7-0 run cuts Golden State lead to 44-40, and Steve Kerr needs another timeout with 5:24 left in 1st half – 4:33 PM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU Quality control timeout for Steve Kerr with 7:24 left in 1st half
Golden State still leads 39-31. +13 with Stephen Curry on the bench today. He’s coming back into the game now. His handcuff Kris Dunn is back out there as well. – 4:28 PM
NBA on ESPN @ESPNNBA “Didn’t he guarantee a championship? … [Draymond Green] can’t be the one that messes it up.”

Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU Expected starters for today’s game in Golden State Clippers: James Harden, Norman Powell, Kris Dunn, Kawhi Leonard, Ivica Zubac
Warriors: Stephen Curry, Brandin Podziemski, Moses Moody, Jimmy Butler III, Draymond Green – 2:49 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Steph Curry will warm up with the intention to play vs Clippers. He has his sprained right thumb taped up, per Steve Kerr: “Steph’s been dealing with this all season. He’s doing OK. I think he will be fine.” – 1:47 PM
Steve Kerr says he thinks Steph Curry will play. He will have the shooting thumb wrapped up. Kerr says because Curry played with the injury earlier this season, he should be fine shooting-wise. – 1:46 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater Here is Steve Kerr going in-depth on the Kuminga, Butler, Draymond tricky lineup fit and the trickle down impact on Kuminga.
Mentioned he closed Lakers game with it in part because it matched defensive scheme (switching). pic.x.com/plQgS4t61V – 8:44 PM
More on this storyline
What do you want to say about Defensive Player of the Year? It’s your last one.” Draymond Green: “Oh man, I think—put it in the bag. That’s what I think. Put it in the bag. Yours truly. That’s who I’m rocking with. Listen, I think Evan Mobley has had a great year. Dyson Daniels has had a great year. I think Zubac has had a great year. All those guys have had great years. I ain’t taking nothing away from them—and I see them on First-Team All-Defense. But I think DPOY should go to yours truly. I’ll take that.” -via YouTube / April 13, 2025
