On First Take, Stephen A. Smith and Jay Williams discuss if they are losing confidence in the Golden State Warriors following their blowout loss to the Memphis Grizzlies in Game 5.

Game 4: "There's no way the Warriors play that bad again."
Game 5: Hold my beer 🍺
👀

Warriors playing like Kings to make Mike Brown ready. Respect 💯💯

[supersaiyanbino]

It was SO BAD last night that I was convinced they threw the game, and I never think that... SO many turnovers and bricks... I've NEVER seen a team let alone the Warriors play so badly

[Maxjuliann]

I thin what makes it really funny is draymond comments talking about this is “ championship level basketball “ and get destroyed like that 😂

[wxm]

The warriors disrespected their opponent. They disrespected the game and they disrespected their fans last night. Embarrassing performance

[VizWorld_SIA]

“I’m not gone front.” His tone when he said that 😂😂😂

[Orrestes]

Wondering how it happened. It was those turnovers, rebounds and fouls. 22 vs 9 TO, 13 vs 30 FT attempts and 2nd chance shots because GSW got outrebounded hard. 4 Oreb vs 18. 37 vs 55 total.

Stephen A is on point with everything he said today

[micahkiyimba]

That was a HISTORICALLY bad performance. Never seen anything like it in my life. GS was bad..everyone was bad..the coach, the players, role players....it is unfathomable and I cannot believe what I watched. Wow.
Turnovers were insane, Draymond and Curry had 9 Between them....no effort on defense or the glass....no energy on offense.
Memphis is good without Ja but I am tempted to think GS did this on purpose, they were not themselves AT ALL

[lifeforms]

The Grizzlies almost won game 4 as well. There was almost a reality where we’re going into game 6 with the Grizzlies up 3-2 without Ja.

The immediate impact of this loss won’t mean much in terms of the series as long as Golden State wins. But it does show that the Warriors might have some serious issues, whether it’s players motivation or leadership issues. Losing is one thing, to get completely destroyed by a team without their best player is another.

[julianfromlegal]

I expected Memphis to win at home as the Warriors didn't beat them there all season. The real winner of Game 5 was Steve Kerr. People have long downplayed his coaching ability because he had so much talent on the roster. This is more evidence that talented players still need good coaching for success.

"No matter what gs does it won't erase that 39 point lost facts"

“Should the Warriors be worried?” - First Take’s favorite segment from 2015-2019 is back ladies and gentlemen.

50 piece nuggets with a side of fries 🍟 best night ever in playoff games history!

[kamronseeram]

No one said how ESPN aired Warriors losing this game before it even happened 😂

[mrray]

I think Kings is regretting hiring Mike Brown over Mark Jackson 🤦🏿

[sheltondmello]

Been saying for years steph curry is the most overrated player ever. He is a superstar but he's never been on the level of Giannis, LeBron and Maybe KD. Hes just been blessed with an amazing organisation

[GetintheCAH]

Without Steve Kerr, this team is lost lmao. Mike Brown is getting exposed so badly for someone who's supposed to be a head coach next season.

[jonpoon]

There have been critics of Steve Kerr, saying any coach would bring those teams to the championship.
These last two games, in his absence, has shown really how good he is. Yesterday’s loss was a mental one. Kerr would’ve been able to help the mental side. I bet you they’ve never had a practice this bad. Clearly not focused at all
