Warriors are still the favourites. I can't imagine Steph and KD choking that hard 3 times straight

the rockets really didnt play well at all but I guess I'm the only one that sees this as their series to lose. the rockets have made gsw very uncomfortable. they are even making kevin durant uncomfortable on switchs. notice how when ever he gets chris paul on a switch in the high post, they body him up and send another man over as he attempts his shot

Curry has played terrible the entire post season. I know he can't guard a chair but at least score the ball dude. And all this talk about Kd ruining the flow etc why does curry defer to him? He just gives him the ball and goes to the weakside. A true superstar tells kd to **** off and give me the ball.. Dude needs to get his head out of his ass.

Karma for his amazing shimmy in Steph’s face lol


That's f'd up :noway:

Definitely sucks for him, he’s been glass whenever it’s mattered. Top 5 point guard of all-time who will sadly probably never get a ring.

apparently so which says something about their core.


Very few people understand just how good Iguodala is.

If you have Curry, he's more important than Durant. I think everyone see's that Durant makes Curry significantly worse.

If that scrub Quinn Cook knocks down ANY of his wide open looks, Warriors probably win. Or if Draymond learns to catch, good chance they win it. Or if Harden doesn’t get bailed out repeatedly by the officials every time he drives in the 4th, good chance they win.

GS is playing a Kevin Looney, jordan Bell, and Quinn Cook major minutes.... they’re already in deep sh*t. They SHOULD lose this series as banged up as they are, and going up against the MVP.


Steph, KD, Klay and Draymond are healthy. With all the luck GS has had with opposing teams star players being injured the last few years, the last thing that should be brought up is their health.

When they lose their best player because of a dirty undercut like the Spurs did last year, or play have their 2nd and 3rd best players out for all but 1 game of the finals like Cleveland did in 2015 then we can talk being banged up.

He specifically told KD to stop the iso and KD isoed the next play. You could see Kerr screaming for him to do something.

It’s not Kerr’s fault that KD won’t stop the iso.

Yeah it doesn't make sense that people point the finger at Kerr when they lose but when GS is rolling it's all thanks to how stacked they are, greatest shooters of all time, greatest team of all time, blah blah. But oh man blame the coach if they lose.

Durant going 8/22 is not on Kerr.

Then he misses and injured himself..

Warriors going 5 on 4 the other way.. rockets lucky warriors missed 3 pointer.. they should have went to the rim.. because 5on4..

Paul just stands there.. typical when he played for the clippers.. Rockets escaped this win! They were frickin lucky omg!! Paul almost gave them the win!!


HELL YEAH **** PAUL I WOULD HAVE CHOPPED MY LEG OFF AND THROWN IT AT COOK BECAUSE PAIN DONT PHASE ME IM A **** MAN!

I think GS still has a good chance to win the series, but I have to give huge credit for Houston defensively. They are really playing hard on defense, even Harden is grinding out there.

one the biggest surprises is the Warriors poor late game execution.. these were both very winnable games but they've made horrible plays down the stretch

zidane13 wrote:Dray will get deservedly criticized for the turnover at the end, but it shouldn't overshadow his crucial drive and lob followed by a clutch 3 that kept the Dubs in it down the stretch. Dray's a baller. Dubs in a tough spot, but if Iggy is healthy for game 6, I still like Dubs in 7.


The question that nobody wants to ask is just wth is Curry doing in 4th quarters? He keeps passing the ball to Durant, Green and Klay then these pathetic Curry fans keep blaming them for taking the tough shots while Curry disappears. If he is such a great scorer why isn't he taking over? This isn't on Kerr either, Curry has to take over instead of dropping the ball like a hot cake in the clutch. I see too many excuses for Curry who is supposedly one of the greatest shooter/ scorers ever according to these fans....

I'd need to see it again, but it looked more like a cramp than an injury.


thats the only hope i have that maybe its one of those really bad charley horses


Wishful thinking but I'd like to think if it was his hammy, he wouldn't have been moving on it the way he was. Fingers crossed.

How can your 5th best player be important? I do not see HOU complaining about losing Moute to injury?

Well Curry and Thompson did it 2 years ago, also Durant did it the same year but in the WCF.

They all choked for 3 straight games.

I seriously don't care what they say about Paul's hammy, he needs to sit out game 6. Harden wants to cement his legacy, go nuclear in Oracle. He has to step up.
