Butler has a tough guy act but is out there flopping like a geezer's penis.

Sengun got slapped on the chin while shooting and no foul lol.

I would have thought Rockets are already behind 20 points just by reading the comments here...

Just ask the Ballchineans

I know he has two fouls now and he's probably afraid of picking up a charge, but he's playing as soft as baby poo. I get it's his first playoffs, but I believe he won't reach his potential until he realizes what are his three best places on the floor. He likes to play all over the place and you can tell he has not one single move that he can just go to when defenses setup against him. He's letting the Warriors dictate what he does versus the opposite.

Yeah I don't know the solution but he needs to do something. Your proposal sounds reasonable

Curry you are like 37 years old. Quit chewing on your mouth guard.

Steven Adams is just amazing. Dude vacuums in every rebound and is one of the best screen setters in the league. I wish the Lakers had him in the Wolves series.

Wow, great challenge. I was wondering why they did it, but now I see
