Ja Morant highlights vs. Warriors were straight up sensational and there’s not much you can say, except just tipping your cap. Morant scored 47 points, on 15/31 shooting, 5/12 3P. Gary Payton was serving as one of the primary defenders on Morant, so losing him could be a big blow to the Warriors roster.

Steve Kerr Press Conference (On Dillon Brooks)
“I don’t know if it was intentional, but it was dirty. Playoff basketball’s supposed to be physical, everybody’s going to compete, everybody’s going to fight for everything. But there’s a code in this league, there’s a code that players follow. You never put a guy’s season, slash, career in jeopardy by taking somebody out in midair and clubbing him across the head, ultimately fracturing Gary’s elbow… He broke the code. Dillon Brooks broke the code. That’s how I see it”

Was Dillon Brooks’ play on GPII dirty Type ‘D’ for dirty, Type ‘C’ for Clean
Type ‘GPII’ to wish him well
