That’s game. Rockets simply can’t score enough to overcome a 10 point deficit in the playoffs.

Crazy how Houston would probably be better off just letting Jal3n take shot after shot than whatever they are trying to run

He got fouled on the initial way up but dropped the ball and threw it back up quick. Technically the first up and then drop is the shot, so basket doesn't count.

This game is going to be 4 hours long and none of us are sleeping tonight.

Udoka did the same **** again. Stop starting Amen Thompson. It's gumming up the offense.

I’m still betting that Draymond gets a second tech in this game. He’s hungry for it :lol:

Classic 3rd quarter Warriors run

Rockets don't have enough shooting to beat the zone

10pm start, still ends 1am like a 10:30 West Coast game. It's so insane.

The Warriors (Kerr?) are great playing the mindgames. Play nice forget about the physicality and maybe the Rockets play nice too— and they did! Played like nice little puppies and produced a grand total of 1 pt.

Meanwhile, the Warriors just found their offensive rhythm. LOL

It's frightening that there was 17 teams worse than the Rockets in offensive rating this year. I know the Warriors defense is very good, though Houston's offense isnt going to cut it.

Ty Jerome is like Michael Jordan on this Rockets team in terms of offense. It's so damn bad.
