He's not their PG

You don't have to be a PG to give ONE assist, especially if you're a top-3 player.

It's usually about the guy(s) replacing the guy who's out, not the guy who's out. Replace a few of those Looney, West, and Bell iso's with Draymond Green, and you see the value of Iggy.

In short, yes, he is.

The Warriors still have a great chance to win, though, especially if CP3 is down.

Rockets can't afford to give up a game and let the Warriors get into a groove. If Paul can play you play him.

The question that nobody wants to ask is just wth is Curry doing in 4th quarters? He keeps passing the ball to Durant, Green and Klay then these pathetic Curry fans keep blaming them for taking the tough shots while Curry disappears. If he is such a great scorer why isn't he taking over? This isn't on Kerr either, Curry has to take over instead of dropping the ball like a hot cake in the clutch. I see too many excuses for Curry who is supposedly one of the greatest shooter/ scorers ever according to these fans....

Just too much respect for KD and Kerr listening to them. He needs so straight up tell them to **** off.

I don't know about you guys, but I don't really trust Curry handling the ball in the clutch. I think he needs to spot up.

The Rockets game plan is basically 2016 NBA Finals to the extreme, drain clock on ISO's to shorten amount of possessions, don't turn the ball over live and run back to prevent transition offense. It's taken the Warriors out of their rhythm and they're really struggling to find a competent 5th guy on the floor as well. The roster construction is full of specialists and lacks a competent 2 way player to replace Iguodala and it's hurting them out there.

Do you just pay zero attention to Houston's half court defense?

Lmao this guys don't even watch the game. When the play break down they post up KD. They are not posting up KD the first second of the shot clock. KD should iso less but you would think they don't iso when he is out but they do.

They certainly look to post him up early in the clock. They wasted 10 seconds of a possession in the 2nd half trying to get him a post before the ball got back to Curry and they didn't even get shot up. They're running the offense through Durant a lot which right now means iso or post up with everyone else just kind of chillin

The fact that Paul couldn't back on defense for a crucial defensive posession is a huge red flag for me. If only there was a break before game 6 or 7

Agree, but that's not his role...he is a scorer 1st

A Warrior fan From a Different Forum on Durant.

"LOL. You know it's funny. He doesn't pass. And people rightfully get on him. But when he actually passes he's even worse, because he has no experience with it. He'll pass at the most inopportune moments; when the receiver is in traffic or where he can get trapped. He just has no sense for team ball at all. For one 1 golden year, he played within the Warriors system. Since he won FMVP, it went to his head and now he's the same player he was with OKC who never won despite the talent for a perfectly good reason."

It didn't look that bad but it's a hamstring so it's hard to tell. He wasn't able to walk properly so I'm guessing it's really bad
