I swear if we get LeBron vs The Horde IV, I'm just gonna watch the Stanley Cup Finals.

Please win Rockets.

Of course we don't know, since the game still has to be played, but at this point I'm expecting a fourpeat.

This seriously sucks that CP3 is out smdh...

I just find it so hard to see how the Rockets get this last W when all the Warriors need to do is key into Harden and exhaust him.

Really hope he plays out of his mind n somehow pulls off the miracle because I'm so insanely sick n bored of a Warriors/Cavs Finals especially when it won't even be remotely close this time around.

The 2015 Warriors crushed the Cavs once Iguodala was put in the starting lineup. With Andre starting the Warriors probably still win against a fully healthy Cavs. The 2016 Warriors definitely would have won the championship if they had been fully healthy.


Crushed is not the term I would use. Pretty much all the games were one possession at some point in the 2nd half. Warriors pulled away once LeBron was exhausted.

No way the Warriors win that series if the Cavs were at full strengh. I dont think the Warriors win either time, and I think the Warriors knew that - which is why they got KD

99% out
He hasn't even tested.

D'Antoni said Paul's recovery is "going good" but acknowledged that the nine-time All-Star has not attempted to test the hamstring by running or working out since he was injured.

I really dont understand this line of thinking...if Houst can beat the best team ever according to people on here why cant they beat the Cavs in 5?

Because it'll take an improbable victory without their 2nd best player (and sometimes best player) to get to the finals, which would still be considered flukey to an extent. I think most everyone would heavily favor Houston if CP3 were 100% healthy.

Harden about to have the game of his life. Rockets in the finals. Role players step up too.

I feel there is absolutely no suspense.

Golden State is going to win if it comes down to 5 against 8. I don't think they will need the officials. Mike D'Antoni will probably try to play 7 guys. I cannot believe he hasn't even played Joe Johnson. I can't I believe he doesn't think Nene can help him. Even Ryan Anderson can hit a shot from deep.

I believe the networks and ratings dictate we see yet again Golden State versus Cleveland. Steph Curry and Kevin Durant and LeBron James yada yada yada Klay Thompson yada yada.

I just know that James Harden is going to be frustrated and Mike D'Antoni is going to have that look on his face when his Rockets lose.

Can’t believe Paul is out. Just typical of the warriors and Paul’s luck. Complete opposites

Sucks for Houston but they are gonna lose. Harden hasn't been efficient with Paul and now without.

My people said CP3 is out for this game. Test didn’t come back good. He technically could play but there is risk of further damage which could be very severe.

I'd bet a million bucks Paul at least tries to play. No way is he missing game 7. Sounds like its pretty bad though so can't see him doing too much other than hyping up the crowd to start the game
