He literally made a 3 to seal the title in 2017 and 2018.

Those weren't particularly tight moments. Coronation finals series against a hopelessly overmatched foe.

Not that I think he actually tightens up too much though.


he has more game winners than most of NBA history

Every game has been close. I don’t want to hear excuses of whose played great or how barely Houston won. This is it. Everyone knows everyone.

Yeah. LeBron is like what, 1-8 against the Durant Warriors?

As expected the battle to see which team gets smashed by by the bucks in the final is going the distance

ALL 4 games have been close... Idk why people keep this narrative that Houston only wins because they’re luck or something

For real, 2 of those games Durant went nuclear and Harden had supposedly "sub par" games.

one thing I'd like to bring up is how bad our offensive execution is...like how easier Rockets get their opens vs ours. I don't believe the rockets are that better defensively..most like how awful our offense is. Klay,KD, Curry takes turns randomly and sometimes Curry/KD barely takes a shot for 12 mins..so terrible. Kerr is still clueless about the offense. we are winning games because we have two great shot makers

Tucker and Rivers combined are 16-32 from 3PL. Curry and Thompson are 20-72. Going to be hard for GS to win if that continues.

Seems like every game, whoever shoots higher % on 3s wins. Tonight was 24% vs 34%
