Round 2 of the NBA Playoffs are starting and if you are a Golden State Warriors fan like me than you are more excited than a toddler tasting ice cream for the first time. Everybody knows that the R'Oracle Arena will be rocking. But don't feel bad if you don't have tickets to this sellout event because watching the game on TV can be just as fabulous if not more than being at R'Oracle....
#5 Steph Curry's mouth
guard....
Dwight Howard may have his
shooting arm sock and Amar'e Stoudemire may have his shooting arm sock and face googles but, my pick for most adorable thing in the NBA is a close-up on Steph
Curry's babyface gnawing away on his mouth guard.... Especially when there's only 2-minutes left in the 4th and we are down by 2. There's something so comforting about his chill factor as he swirls
his mouth guard in his mouth. Steph be like, “Pfffssssttt this is
not a problem,” to everybody watching.
#4 The Warriors Bench

I love watching the bench while they are watching their teammates play on the court because they act they are in they are DUBNATION.... Jumping up and down, throwing up 3's with their fingers, twirling their towels, and high-fiving each other, Steph even does the Rumba every once and a while. I get so excited watching them!!! I just want to run down to the bench and squeeze in between them and pass my bucket of popcorn around.
#3 Mark Jackson's Face
Okay I must admit I was
one of those folks that took it personal the way Mark Jackson
was fired at end of the season last year. I like many fans didn't
understand why a coach who had improved wins for each of his 3
seasons along with leading the Warriors to their first back to back
playoff appearances since 1992 was fired in such a despicable way.
Despite all the rumors about how Jackson clashed with the front
office and some members of the team, I tend to think that there is
always a classy way for folks to depart and in my personal opinion
Joe Lacob was a little unclassy. Just look at his pouty mouth during one of the 2014 NBA Playoff games. 
But
you know whats worse than Lacob's pouty mouth? The saltiness displayed on Mark Jackson's face whenever he commentates during a Warriors games. It must be absolute torture to watch the team he groomed to be champions to continue their magical ride on what
has been deemed their "FAIRYTALE" season with their new head coach, Steve Kerr. OMG ESPN
just end this already!

Who's the most notorious
trash talker in the NBA today? If you're thinking it's Kevin
Garnett you are wrong. It's actually DUBNATION's very own and completely lovable #23,
Draymond “Money” Green.
To quote a friend and fellow Warriors fan
who is always watching from home, “Draymond stay talking shit in
slo-motion.” Yes indeed he does. Although it's a beauty to
watch my first pick for Defensive Player of the Year physically
berate his opponents up and down the court when you are at the actual
game, nothing is better than the verbal tear down Money Green serves up to his opponents in
slo-motion. But if you are at the game you miss out on the slo-mo and honestly trash talk in slo-motion is the best trash talk there
is.

Nonetheless, Whether you are in your living or at one of the many official Warriors Playoffs Watch Parties —with all proceeds raised going to local Bay Area charities through the Warriors Communities Foundation---I'm thinking if you are sensitive to noise pack a pair of earplugs cause it gonna be LOOOOUUUDDD. Everybody knows that you don't have to be inside the R'Oracle Arena to be Loud and Proud especially when the Splash Brothers are hitting them 3's …...
