GSW fans shouldn't even stress. They know NBA won't let them not be in the Finals. They know they'll win this series and sweep cavs.
Sometimes I'll start a sentence and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way.

Do people really enjoy watching teams jack 40 3s a game? I find myself bored by this. Not a fan of this new 3 point era.

Houston is dying by the 3

It's crazy. No one has legs out there. Seems like both teams are operating on fumes.

Cant tell me HOU is better than BOS after this shooting. This is below professional basketball standards
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

Yup. It is gotta be nerves. It is surprising to see older players go cold like this though.

I'm glad the Mike D'Antoni offense of chucking threes no matter what the situation is will never win a championship.

That is why you don't attempt 50 3s, especially deep in the playoffs, you just don't have the lift in your legs, its crazy to depend so much on 3s unless you have 2 of the greatest shooters of all time (Curry & Klay) and even they mix it up and get their 3s in the flow.
But I don't blame the Rockets, I feel they would have won this series with a healthy Paul no question.

Refs took the air out of the game for the rockets. Back to back no calls on fouled 3s for Harden in the 2nd quarter.

Can the league look into putting a 3pt limit, especially for teams like Houston?
