Warriors Pregame Shade:

Whether some of these tweets were real or just fans showcasing creative thinking, they merit inclusion just for their audacity and humor.

Although pregame activity was filled with plenty of shade, no one expected the game would play out in the manner it did. Without Steven Adams most pundits and analysts had the Thunder getting the smackdown early.

When the half arrived and the teams were tied at 56 it showcased just how much the OKC Thunder and Westbrook are inspired to beat the Warriors.

Yet, it was the Zaza shot (and,no I don’t mean an alcoholic drink) which blew up social media during and after the game.
