It looks ridiculous, but in all fairness, I think pretty much all 6:00 games look kind of empty at the start. Fans get out of work and have to fight through rush hour traffic to get to the game. They should really just start the west coast games half an hour later to allow fans to filter in more at the beginning.

Throw Draymond out.

Early roid rage already for Draymond, should be a good series.

Man I take that back, I was super mixed up. It should be like 8 PM in Houston right now, the fans were just showing up to this game crazy late. :lol:

I hope Harden’s alright. The league needs to have eyes on Golden State knocking out the other team’s best player

Who do we want to win? Who do we have a better chance to beat if we reach the finals? Surely the rockets right?

Rockets play a perfect 1st quarter and are up 1

Houston easily. Smart gets under Harden's skin and they rely a lot more heavily on the three point shot, which we are elite at defending. Horford (and Baynes with his newfound three point shot lol) will also draw Capela out of the paint on defense. It's actually a good match up for us but the lack of a superstar like Kyrie or Hayward to carry us through offensive droughts will hurt us.

We would want Houston. Nobody ever really "wants" to play a healthy Warriors team with home court advantage.

This sucks. I have no faith in this Houston team at all.

Is it me or do these guys play very little D?

Yeah, outside of the matchups GS is just mentally stronger as well.

Still want Rockets to win.
