Houston has 31 fts. GSW has 20. Instead of whining about the refs your team should hit FTs.

I mean, they called the same exact kind of foul on that Butler 3 at the end of 2023 Game 6 vs Celtics, right before the Derrick White tip-in.

If Hield (equivalent of THJ to the Warriors) was shooting that same shot with that contact, you bet your ass nothing would be mentioned.

Thank god for Jalen Green.

Houston is unconscious apart from him -- Sengun and FVV alone have 54 points on 38 shots. And then Amen and Brooks have 28 on 19 shots. For the love of god dont let FVV take another 3..

Dillon Brooks is such a clown. Yeah, why not push a career 33% 3pt shooter with the shot clock running out.
