I JUST KNOW if it was a certain team we'd hear chants of RIGGED

Reminds me of Chandler Parsons and his laser beam 3s.

Rockets have youth and inexperience. They are playing better later in the series. They need to close this half well to show me they have that maturity to win the series. They are losing focus a bit right now.


And they are NOT doing a good job closing the half. sigh.

Silver tried to save your team, but they were so bad he couldn't do anything about it.

This one is in the bag. Adam is making sure he keeps one of his cash cows advance.

Curry just shoved Thompson with both hands before the rebound so he could snag that one

Curry once again displaying the heart of a champion. Started the game HORRIBLY but turned it around.

Feels like his shot always hits the same part of the rim.

Very obvious foul on Curry on the rebound off Brooks’ miss. Pushed him in the back with no traffic.
