Role players always play better at home.. Dubs are going to have to figure out those road woes though if they’re going to advance..

Warriors’ basketball on their homecourt is really just in another level of insanity. Shout out to Kevon Loonajuwon for being such a great player man.

Warriors at home feel confident. But on the road they feel pressured thinking they can loose the opportunity to get a new championship.
