Warriors are 23-8 since they got Butler.....you can't treat them like a 7th seed. They'd be a top 4 seed if they had Butler for the 1st half of the season.

Udoka, stop the bleed now and pull out the rabbit at half time. This is bad.

Warriors in 5.
Houston offense is probably the worst **** i've seen in a 2nd seed.
Dont care how good your defense is if you're offense look G-league it ain't happening.

Re: 2025 NBA PLAYOFFS West First Round: #2 Houston Rockets vs #7 Golden State Warriors
I was wrong about Jimmy Butler being washed and the Warriors making a mistake trading for him. I really really didn't like how he conducted himself in his final season at the Heat, but he has totally rejuvenated the Dubs and given Steph a new lease of life.

That was a set play from the way Jimmy set it up.

To be clear, I was informed that the difference come the playoffs is that they don’t call touch fouls, right? Or do you only get those calls if you’re more experienced?

And he hit a 3 already. i thought Kerr would give him a chance this series. i may be wrong as this looks like a good decision from Kerr.

Depends how you label Quinten Post.
Sengun should have 50 this game
How? Rockets have no spacing and they just double Sengun.

Ime realizing that his team has never been here before. During this timeout, he needs to reaffirm that they need to act like they have.

Incredible 18-3 run by the Warriors. HOU has no answers right now.

A 10 point lead feels like a 20 point lead right now. Like a 90’s game

It was a great season for the Rockets.
They just happened to get the Warriors with Butler, a team that is not a true 7 seed.
