Gerald Green doesn't think CP3 misses game 6. "He a tough mofo"

While all season long no-one gave Rockets a chance, saying how they gonna choke in the playoffs, have no chance vs the Warriors yada yada yada. N here we are reading, that Iggy makes all the difference Lol

The words you chose speak for themselves...nothing much else I need to say. Lack of self awareness is what it is...

Sure buddy

Iggy is the reason why your 4 allstars can't beat 2 (even tho CP wasn't an allstar this year, n wasn't selected on any of the nba teams).

would be nice for harden to show up this series
i vividly remember him calling out his teammates after game 1

To be fair Luc is pretty banged up for Houston so both teams have lost a solid role player at the wing position

No, it just mean your 4 all stars didn't step up. You act like Iggy is in his prime or something, dude is old as dirty and has been injured for the whole regular season. stop with the excuses, its lame.

he has had a rolodex of playoff moments the last few years and has always been considered the glue of the 2nd unit how can you deny that he might have had an impact in a game like this?

Like what exactly other than defending Lebron who didn't have Love or Kyrie.

AND you’re a non local living in the Bay Area who has been talking trash about the Warriors and band wagoners for years. It’s like a yearly routine for you come playoff time. You must have callwd me a band wagoner at least 5+ times by now. I’ve lost count. **** is getting old.

I was born in the bay but okay. 2015 was when you became a local right

Yeah, and I’m the tooth fairy. You’re completely full of crap and you know it. Not to mention your grammar and writing structure seem more aligned with a foreigner than a local.

By the way, Iggy defended LeBron last year too when he had a healthy Irving and Love. That doesn’t count though right? Cause of Durant?

Luc was a huge part of the team and we lost him basically completely... even though he is "healthy" he obviously isn't playing because his shoulder isn't in proper shape for this level of athletics... take it from a guy who has dislocated his left shoulder 3 times and had labrum surgery... I don't trust this thing at all.. let alone to be playing in the NBA

You guys have a freaking super team and you're sitting here acting like Iggy is the difference maker...I can't with you Warrior fans

If you actually watched all their games these years unstead of just playoffs, you would get it...still, these games have been decided by one shot. How is it so crazy to say your 5th best guy would have a 2-3 pt impact? Also, its not just Iggy, it js McCaw, Bells injury, etc. We lost wing depth and it is showing. Looney has been great for who he is, but you cant see what a huge team downgrade it is defensively from Iguadala and McCaw to Looney and Bell, or Swaggy?

You could garner some sympathy, however miniscule if Mbah, arguably the Rockets best perimeter defender during the regular season and a great fit in their lineup wasn't also unable to perform due to injury and therefore not getting minutes for them.

Mbah out though is basically the same role as Iguodala out for they respective teams, so zero sympathy. Rockets are playing 7 players, socomplaining about MCaw and Bell being out isn't going to register to anyone, Warriors should be able to overcome that. Sure the could help, but the Warriors are losing to a team playing 7 guys, sorry, no excuses or reasonings unless one of the top 4 guys is out or significantly injured.

I don't think they do MRI's that quickly

Palpation can tell you in seconds if it's severe enough to miss the last two games. If its a tear you can feel the thickening of the tissue immediately.

Hey, I'd trust a doctor's initial assessment over my own conjecture, but has that ever ruled out a player minutes after a game? I don't know if I've seen that before. Feel free to provide an example because I honestly can't say

rockets don't have a fraction of the talent the warriors have
warriors just aren't mentally tough

Harden's had 1/5 games this series where shot at least 44% and that was game 1. I don't know whats gotten into him since.

Warriors currently 11 point favorites for Game 6 and series line is -124/+102 in favor of Warriors. Not that the sportsbooks have any inside information on the injury or anything, but obviously they think it’s a pretty significant factor.

Are two of these all stars the same guys RealGM calls overrated system players quite frequently?

Warriors are clearly more talented than the Rockets on paper. That’s a given but if they’re resorting to iso hero ball or missing a key cog in their death lineup, the talent is not always going to guarantee wins.

Who steps in the rotation if CP cant go? Harden may have to go 48 just to have a ball handler on the court.

Doesn't change the fact that the Rockets were + against the Hampton 5 lineup.

And I guess the Thunder lost their series because of Andre Roberson's injury?

Who is going to win?
