I apologize in advance for stepping in as a longtime lurker and making such an important game thread. But it's 3:30 and I still don't see one, so I guess it's my chance to step in and Sundiata Gaines this ****.
Jazz @ Warriors
Jazz Playoff Leaders
Points: Gordon Hayward with 23.7
Rebounds: Rudy Gobert with 7.4 (7.3 by Hayward!)
Assists: Joe Ingles with 4.0
Steals: Joe Ingles with 2.0
Blocks: Rudy Gobert with 1.2
Warriors Playoff Leaders
Points: Steph Curry with 29.8
Rebounds: Draymond Green with 9.5
Assists: Draymond Green with 7.5
Steals: Steph Curry with 2.0
Blocks: Draymond Green with 4.3
Injury Report:
Derrick Favors QUESTIONABLE with lower-back soreness
Alec Burks OUT with left knee issues
Kevon Looney OUT with hip injury
Matt Barnes PROBABLE with ankle and foot sprains
Shaun Livingston QUESTIONABLE with sprained right index finger
Notable Storylines:
How does the Warriors franchise handle the status of coach Steve Kerr? The Warriors head coach is out indefinitely due to complications from his back surgery a couple years back. Durant provides another go-to scorer for the squad, but the loss of Kerr definitely hurts the franchise in this year's playoffs run.
Rudy versus Green. Two of the best defenders in the league match up in this playoff series. While both players anchor their team's defenses, they both contribute in different ways. Green had an excellent all-around series against the Blazers, while Gobert is still recovering from his knee injury in the first minute of the first game in the Clippers series.
Ingles. Will he find a way to get into the Warriors' heads like he did in the previous series? The Jazz might need some type of psychological edge to make some metaphorical dents in the Warriors' sturdy armor.
