This is what I'm saying about the Rockets, you need everybody to have a great defense and it has to be consistent. That is not in Harden's DNA.....
I'm so tired of the typical......

Over helping on Kawhi way to much. You have Thompson, Green and Iggy if he beats them then so

they have to win 3 in a row (2 in toronto)

Who is the worst NBA finals champ the last 40 years. The super Sonic's? Or the 2019 raptors? Or the 2004 pistons? 2011 Mavs?

Or the 1995 Houston rockets?

The raptors have been destroying the Warriors defense all game... they were just missing open shots in the first half. As many of us said... if they start hitting GS would be in big trouble... and here we are

Lol. They got 1 without him. Imagine if they had 30 mil worth of another player out there instead of KD injured ?

I’m as excited as anyone, but be real


They got one facing a team without 2 of their star players. They still got one sure but they lost one the next year. Im 100% sure Cavs would have beaten them again the year after if KD went elsewhere.

You right, I did not believe in Lowry but he is playing a hell of a series.....


Lowry's always been like this. He's a complimentary player who, because of team composition, was forced to be a big scoring option in the past. Let him do what he does best, passing/defense/hustle plays/intangibles, and he looks awesome. Force him to be a big scorer who has to go out and get 25 every night, and he'll look very disappointing.

Pray KD stays and you can revamp the bench.

If not, well Bob Meyers has to really show his 'light years ahead' mind then.


KD's not staying

Kawhi is so composed on every posession. It's amazing.

I want a reporter to ask Draymond after the game if the fun times are still ahead and I expect a serious answer

He got it way harder from Raps fans than anyone else

no, most of us said he was better than derozan. Its the media/social media etc that shat all over him.
