Can’t play dray and jimmy as the lone bigs. Adams and Sengun are too big and we can’t beat them for playing them. Steph not being able to shoot them out of playing 2 bigs means it’s not viable to play small.


START MOSES **** MOODY

It’s really not hard bro.

Moses ain’t doing anything. Starting is not the main issue. It’s this double big lineup which dray and jimmy can’t matchup with. We can’t score because they aren’t guarding dray or jimmy and we can’t grab rebounds because they’re too small.

Start Moses sure. But it’s after the start when they go double big that is killing us.


Exactly. I wish the answer was as simple as "start Moody" lmao. The problem is much deeper than that and it's not something that can be fixed at this point. Just gotta hope FVV can stop outplaying Steph and some Warriors can make wide open shots, otherwise it's 1-2-3 Cancun.

Yeah this team is not a serious championship contender at all.

Rockets open as -2 favorites in game 7.

Regardless of the betting line, just watching these 2 teams it is pretty obvious to me that the Rockets will win by double digits.

Keepers

Curry
Jimmy
Draymond

F everyone else. The Mid All Stars. Seriously. Trade 'em all in the offseason. I'm not sold on anyone else. THIS IS YOUR CHANCE. And you're on the verge of blowing a 3-1 lead again.

LOW CEILING PLAYERS


Ironically enough the one with highest ceiling - Kuminga - got zero minutes

Trade for tested and proven players in the offseason.

Probably would have helped the Warriors if every game wasn't basically a game seven for the final 20 of the season.

Nah, I'm not counting Steph, Jimmy, and Dray out. Rockets will finally feel some pressure for the first time in 3 games. Similar to a couple years ago against Sac.

Literally the answer was “start Moody” since the Butler trade. And Kerr went and **** it all up. It’s 100% on Steve Kerr.

Santos is GS's only real energy player; he's needed in that rotation to try to get the team's energy up. I think energy players are very underrated.

Lol ok. Keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better. FYI - I know it's not the best stat, but Moody was a team worst -16 tonight. And to be clear, I like him, I just don't think starting him would've made any difference.

When they were showing the replay of Vanvleet's night, I didn't realize he had so many wide open 3's. You start GP2, where was he?

Steph can't figure out the double teams this game. Maybe because we don't have enough shooters out there.

it’s 5on4 with Draymond. He’s not doing anything but playing good man defense that’s beaten with ball movement

Draymond jogging around and racking up a triple single. Defenders literally running away from him when he has the ball.

Gp2 has been pretty terrible this series which makes it a weird start.
Most 4th Quarter Points in Final since 1991
1995 Shaquille O'Neal 11.5
2000 Shaquille O'Neal 11.5 (61.1% TS)
2015 Stephen Curry 10.8 (75.1% TS)
1997 Michael Jordan 10.7 (55.1% TS)
1998 Michael Jordan 10.6 (50.6% TS)
2011 Dirk Nowitzki 10.3 (68.0% TS)

Terrible numbers. Specially on a close out game. Maybe father time is really catching up.

He's never going to admit it, but I gotta think that thumb has something to do with it.
