Andre Iguodala is big piece in small ball

June 16, 2015 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

When the Golden State Warriors were trailing 2-1 in the 2015 NBA Finals and all the momentum seemingly on the side of the Cleveland Cavaliers, first-year head coach Steve Kerr went to his go-to guy to stop the bleeding.

CP3, Griffin unable to stop Clips collapse

May 17, 2015 by Joel Huerto Leave a Comment

It’s difficult to quantify the debacle that just occurred in the 2015 Western Conference semifinals when the team that fell apart has very little history to begin with.
