My son, Matthew, a true Golden State Warrior fan emailed me this morning with a thought that is essential for the Dubs to embrace, absorb, and acknowledge through action. It is this: In the end, basketball is not an art nor a science, it's nature is physical. The Warriors tonight must match the Thunder physical for physical. This doesn't mean that they lose sight of their team game on offense. They may not be have the overall physical power. But you can give up a few pounds to your opponents if you BLOCK THE SUCKERS OFF THE BOARDS, and GO AFTER THE BALL WITH INTENSITY and PLAY OFFENSIVE DEFENSE.
Enough said. I like the quiet confidence Coach Kerr was talking about in this morning's sports page.
I know all of us Old Warriors will be pulling for our Dubs.

When down three to one
Look at the moon and count the stars
Then go inside and play the game.
