- Published: 17 May 2019
- In her daily monologue, Rachel Nichols recaps Game 2 of Golden State Warriors vs. Portland Trail Blazers Western Conference finals matchup in the 2019 NBA playoffs, and how remarkable it is that Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and Andre Iguodala -- who made a key defensive play on Damian Lillard -- have been able to play so well with Kevin Durant injured. Nichols, Brian Windhorst and Scottie Pippen then (3:33) discuss how long Steph & Co. can keep it up without KD.

They win championships without him, obvuosulu
Why would Scottie be scared?
Really scary, lol.
Steph curry class act dude
Ya dang right it is
and iggy's getting traded.
Kawhi said that he wasn't scared
pippen suffering from selective idiotic amnesia, 2016...RING A BELL??? SHEESSH PIPPEN
No kd no problem for raptors to beat the warriors
How this changed so fast is amazing
Now this whole narrative changed when the Finals came. "Warriors didn't have KD"
you forgot about klay being injured too
Yeah well the Warriors were crippled in the finals and Raps are a different beast.
Oh yes
For real bro
that's mostly foul..
Hahahahaha..
Are they tho?
If that's true then why are the warriors fans so salty after losing to the raptors without durant eh.
Because klays injury fucked everything up. And looney was dealing with a collarbone injury. And iguodala had a sore hamstring/Achilles that he retriggered in game 1.
What if we could make Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant join the Utah Jazz go to them join them haha lol would that be funny if we all did?
They where good even before Durant join the warriors , now they got 2 superstars which shouldn't be allowed
Why doesn’t anyone realize that Golden State won without Durant with the same team before Durant GS are Champions before and after go Golden State
Kd is a condom for warriors. Feel safe but something weird when on. When off, you feel good but risky.
can't said it better
To think Lebron and team beat them in 2016 and would had beat them in 2015 if Love and Kirie weren’t injured, that shows how good Lebron is.
No it doesnt fanboy
Yeah, in 2016 Bogut and Curry we're injured too plus suspension of Green.
Warriors don't necessary need KD to win, but they need Steph more than him
@Down Town1 i dont think he does
Still believe that?
How could anyone forget? The Warriors really didn't need KD. He's just the X-factor to solidify that they keep winning. It's a symbiotic relationship. KD needed rings and did just that. But they can do it without him. And with Lebron's Cavs not in the picture, there is no legitimate challenge for the throne. That's why now that KD has his rings that he must leave and get his own team that needs hope, playoff contention, and a title to build upon his legacy and brand. He got those rings the easy way. It may not have always been easy but he got on the team that gave him the best chance for doing that. I don't fault him for it, but after the 2019 season, he has to pack his bags.
2 weeks later
S.P.was never as good as KD.He just talk crap on KD
The Warriors basically don’t even try when KD is on the floor. They lack the motivation and sense of urgency because they have such a big safety net to fall onto. Without KD, they really have to stretch their talents in ways no other team can do, that is why they’re better if not more entertaining without him.
When Draymond, Steph and Klay are all on fire Warriors are gonna be unstoppable
Man, I feel like I have a crush to this woman? what's her name?
4:17. Goddamn, that ball movement,...you don't see it often when KD is on the court. I'm not saying they're better without KD. Its just incredible how they move the ball and how the players move around when KD not playing. 31-4 when Steph curry play without KD this season says it all
Basketball is a team sport...
Without KD... GSW become more as a team....
Iggy is savage
KD should go back to thunder and then the league would be exciting again 🤩
Scottie Pippens sounds like morgan freeman
If they will continue to play like that, GSW will no longer sign KD just for Klay to stay.
This bitch(host) is very annoying ugly whore
Scottie Pippen is who Morgan Freeman wants to grow up to sound like
The threesome, Steph, Klay, Draymond, SKD are the Real Thing, 4get KD Iso shit, look at Harden and Rockets, iso cant win championship
I clicked to hear Rachel sexy voice! Anyway GO WARRIORS!
Kd still needs KD we are talking about here the ability to win battles and KD prove that much
This was a super dumb post lol
You know what else is pretty scary your face 😂
4:17
such outside in basketball
I guess EVERYBODY conveniently forgot that the Warriors won 73 games in 2016 without Kevin Durant. But they would have lost to the Cavs in 2017 and 2018 without KD...fact
so were ignoring the fact that they were scary before durant joined them. analysts hype durant so much they ignore this. im not hatin on durant cause he's obviously one of the top players but warriors are being themselves with or without him.
They play perfect basketball Durant doesn't move without the ball
Because the organization is so good on doing team adjustments. They have Plan B, C, up to Z. No other team can adjust better than GS. KD is a big loss and many teams will most likely to collapse if they lose a valuable player.
nevertheless w/o kevin durant GS will win
I hope more for Iguidala to return than KD. I love seeing the old Warriors.
Why Scottie doesn't work for the Jornets? Shid, he'd be on my payroll just to reiterate defense to the hornet players
Oh no, now they only have 3 all stars? Pobrecitooo
