2025 NBA PLAYOFFS West First Round: #2 Houston Rockets vs #7 Golden State Warriors (Series tied 3-3, Game 7 Sunday!)

[XTC]

Crazy how cyclical this league is. Now all of a sudden, you might need two competent mobile bigs out there to be successful. Feels like the Gasol and Odom or Andrew Bynum era right now but with more 3's

Small ball was prevalent because the talent didn't catch up to the size yet.

You got big men who are bringing up the ball now, and were not talking about undersized big men like Draymond.

Sengun gets hammered

[picc]

Sengun again does something incredibly stupid but they get away with it.

Super talented but he's not much smarter than Green is.

[KingFox]

I still expect the Warriors to make some sort of comeback though. When you have Curry, you're never ever out of it

[rickxdel]

Steph with 5 fouls, they should iso FVV and go at him each time down the court

[Tracymcgoaty]

WHAT? How the **** can you even DO THAT? FVV was driving to the basket and it was off ball????

[multo]

Warriors have no chance at all because Vanvleet will go 10/10 from 3 in Game 7.

I like to think Timberwolves started the trend with the Gobert trade

[Castle Black]

Warriors decided to all suck offensively in the same game. None of these dude's can make a shot.

[RB34]

They called that on Curry and then changed jt

[bovice]

curry can't close. he can't even get a shot off that's not forced. how can you be a #1 option when you can't get your own shot. would be hilarious if he loses a 2nd series up 3-1

Irrational hate. How many #1 options can get their own shot off against a double or triple-team?

its the 4th quarter of a closeout game and u can't even get the ball in ur hands? harden, dame, brunson, kawhi, ant all had the ball in their hands at critical moments.

if curry is being triple teamed he should be able to find an open man but he cant even get the ball in his hands

[Harry Palmer]

Jalen totally fouled under the basket there.

[___Rand___]

Geez.... refs are soooo RIGGING it for Warriors they aren't even hiding it! That should' ve been Curry's 5th foul!

[Mk0]

LMAO they don't want to give the foul to Curry

[HardenGoat]

What a crock. They touch Adams and that’s a foul??

[KGDirkTD_Fan]

Good offensive rebound, **** your hack

You might be right tbh. To even dream of beating OKC or Boston, you better have some damn good bigs.

[JimmyPlopper]

I don't condone flopping or faking, but Sengun can't get any calls. He has to do what's necessary to keep an even keel

[knicksfan974]

Kerr resorting to hack-a-Adams again, what garbage!

This is basically the history of the NBA. A new skill will come up. Guards/Forwards will have it. Bigs won't. For a couple of yrs bigs decline than the next generation of Bigs has the skill and they return.

At the end of day, being 7 ft is just such an advantage in basketball.
