Right now, Kevin Love is probably praying he isn't cleared to play a week earlier. I felt bad for Love who suffered from a psychological problem that is very taboo in sports...and all the calamity of I. Thomas singling him out, that was nonsense. I can only hope Love gets traded to Clippers for Tobias Harris where he'll be happy.

Im surprised how many people think these GSW injuries are a big deal and enough for Houston to overcome them.

The regular season doesnt end for another 3 weeks. If Houston and GSW meet up in the playoffs, it'll be 2 months from now. Fans and people in the media need to stop making this a big deal. These guys steamrolled through the playoffs last year, chemisty isnt an issue at all for them. You know what else isnt an issue for them? Talent. KD shifted the power of balance in the NBA by alot. As much as I want to be wrong and hope Houston knocks them out, its not going to happen.

GSW dont need homecourt advantage. GS imo will beat HOU in 6 games. Wont even be surprised if they win in 5. Houston cant afford a bad game from Harden, they need him to consistently perform well to have a chance and that still might not be enough.

Only chance Houston has to beat GSW is to stay hot from 3 for a full series and that's pretty damn hard to do. Especially when most of their points are from iso ball.

Problem is Pringles like Thibs love running players to the ground which is even more unacceptable today cuz of the incredible increase in pace

Harden had nothing left in tank last playoffs and Pringles doesnt seem to learn who cares lose a couple more games in regular season but keep your players fresh for playoffs, if the conspiracies are true and these Ws injuries are just to rest RIP

What's more is that after watching Houston against Minnesota, I realized it isn't too hard to beat them. All you need to do is score consistently. If you score or stop the ball, they have to play in the half court and you win. They don't have any talented players aside from Harden and Paul. Literally all they do is run. Golden State will score. They're also matching up nicely with them. I don't see them having any problems with Houston at all. They'd struggle more against OKC who won't get that far.

But with Harden CP3 you are guaranteed to have one of them on the floor all times which increases other players' level a notch, they got in players that fit their idea just stick to your position offensively and hit a 3 if ball comes and be flexible on defensive end

To be honest, saying all they do is run isnt true at all. They iso off Harden and CP3 alot in the half court and have 0 problems slowing the game down. Im pretty sure that team isnt even in the top 10 in pace.

Yea its a fair point, its really their job to try and bring in viewers for their inevitable showdown. But they are just going a little overboard w/ it. Curry is supposed to come back in a few days, KD in a week or two. None of these are serious injuries. At least fans should know these injuries arent a big deal.
