Houston in 6, GS turned the ball over a million times and needed poor officiating to win. If your 3 point heavy opponents are cold from 3 but still kept the game competitive you're fucked.

Fucking this. What are you brain dead kooks even talking about. There was never a double digit score difference the entire game. The rockets kept with warriors DESPITE a piss poor field percentage and the refs literally deepthroating them on the court.

i dont think harden and cp3 being those guys means that the refs cant still be on golden states side. although i kinda like that they seem to allow a little more contact in the post season, they definitely missed some shit in that game. unless youre from the bay area or been a fan for a decade or whatever, liking golden state is corny anyway.

not liking this raptors game so far. i thought they had philly's number. i guess they cant shoot any worse, though. hopefully theyll show up in the second half

This is true. I hate calling out the refs because it seems like a cop out in a sense and harden/cp3 are generally on the good end of a call, but the one that bothered me the most was when klay closed out on harden. His foot was in between harden’s and that could’ve ended badly.

However, i think Harden should shut up and play basketball. Shoot better.

bricked so many open shots.. just gotta clean that up and keep setting the pace. we were moving way too slow all game
Let me preface this post with the fact that I am slightly inebriated, very uneducated and I havent read any papers or done any research at all, or read your post really.

so I guess Giannis actually shoots 3s now? Would be sick if Brogdon is cleared to play soon.

Donkey Boy Green is absolute street trash and should be in jail not playing organized professional basketball. If assault and battery is your best defensive strategy you need to go back to the fundamentals.

Anyone notice that Durant and Harden's shoes are looking pretty early 00's skateboard tonight?

Embarrassing. I’m guessing he shows up big in the next game though. That had to have been rock bottom.
I thought it wasnt just him solo, shouldve stuck with my og thought.

Rockets played definitely played their hearts out, but damn, blowing a 17 point lead??!! I'm a lifelong Rocket fan, but I will concede the only reason that didn't go into overtime is because we got lucky x2 w/ KD and curry missing those final wide open 3's.

Once again Drama 'n Queen was in rare form /s.

Rockets came to play not even gonna front, Harden and Cp3 have obviously been huge but I've been really impressed with PJ Tucker's defensive efforts and not to mention how lethel from outside Gordon's been.

Tucker is my new favorite rocket. He seems to be the ultimate teammate. NEVER takes plays off. Kevin Durant’s gonna Kevin Durant, but Tucker’s defense on him has been about as good as it’s gonna get...


Edit: this just solidified it... great read even if you hate harden

I wish the warriors would lose so the playoffs would be slightly interesting. Make the nba not boring again.

I’m also ready for KD to leave. I wanted the 3-peat but now really for them just to beat the Rockets.

Honestly, Bucks will probably kill the Warriors with this difference in depth over a 7 game series (assuming Dubs even make it there), but it was enough for me to bump Houston out again.  Great team, but annoying as hell.

Nah this ain’t on him. It’s on dantoni, Capela, and the rest. Tucker and harden played decent. But ight


Edit: I’m glad i won’t have to see Draymond Green pretend he got knocked out and yell after every fucking play.

1 - Pelicans (Jumped)
2 - Grizzlies (Jumped)
3 - Knicks (Even)
4 - Lakers (Jumped)
5 - Cavs (Fell)
6 - Suns (Fell)
7 - Bulls (Fell)
8 - Hawks (Fell)

The flattened odds made it pretty exciting to watch and - like it was meant to - will probs make teams think twice about bottoming-out. Also makes the AD sitch pretty interesting...

That was an insane shot. That first Bucks-Raptors game was good. Playoff Lopez showed up. I'm all Western Conference but rooting for the Raptors or Bucks to take it this year. I strongly feel that Blazers will not get past Warriors.
