Harden is getting his respect out there. Love to see him busting his ass on defense.

As great as KD is, it's clear the cog of the GSW is Curry. As he goes, the team does. If Houston succeeds in continuing to go at him and get him out of the game, they may be on to something. If...

Rockets playing well, but the Ws with turnovers above the break are asking for it. Their bench this year isn't what it's been in years past.

Harden was great defensively down the stretch. Can Houston have a strong 3rd, the most important quarter vs the Warriors.

If the Warriors are going to come back and win, they're going to need CUrry to have another god-like 3rd quarter.

Dude... relax.. the Rockets are only up 7. This game isn't in the bag just yet.

There's no correlation between ruining the league and choking away a big lead.

This is just a choke.

I've grown to respect Chris Paul in these playoffs. He's not getting the cheap calls and making dirty plays as much this year.

Steve Kerr saving Curry for the 5th quarter. Always a winning move.

Rockets are just better.

No, they're not. Not even close.

They are, with HCA and Iguodala out. Also, with 33 year old Cp3 outplaying Curry for the third time in the series.
Professional sports is idolatry.

The MVP is here. 24 in first half. Can't be stopped Leading the rockets. Harden is the best and is showing why no one can stop him. Not even a great team of all time. Fear The Beard!

It really is crazy how different the Warriors are with and without Curry on the floor. One of the best offensive players ever.
