    Clint is having his best year and Green is having a down year.


    So pointing to past seasons shows that you’re slow to adapt and intellectually lazy.

    Haha, I lol'd. Okay, brah. This is hopeless and cringe worthy. I'll move on, you keep thinking Dray is worse than Clint.

    Agreed. You have to start with a good chance. Then anything can happen. Klay could go in a slump and EG get hot. Green could get suspended. Curry could break his ankles. If we are hungry, healthy, and shooting the ball well we have a chance to win it all. That said, if I had to bet on any team I would bet on Golden State without a second thought.

    You provided no argument other that past season awards.

    You're right, I'm not going to move on. What I will do is sub this thread, and if Draymond is on any all-D or all-nba or all-star team before Clint, I'll revisit in the future. Fair?

    Klay just had a 9 PER for a playoff series last year by the way. They are practical equals in terms of impact for their teams. All the Rockets best lineups come with Gordon on the court. Some really damn dominant lineups too.


    Gordon is streaky behind the arc but he is much better than Klay off the dribble. He arguably brings way more dynamism to a team than Thompson because of his ability to penetrate and sometimes make plays because of it. I highly doubt one could see Gordon have a 9 PER for a playoff run when healthy, he has more depth to his game.

    Defensively, Gordon is very strong as a man defender, terrible as a help defender but sometimes it's not the case. Thompson is similar on defense.

    What exactly could happen that would delegitimize my points? You do realize Rockets are generally dominant because of what Gordon adds to the team yes?

    Is Thompson scoring 50 in 3 weeks against some random team gonna make this bump worthy?

    If Thompson shoots 47 TS% in the playoffs again, I will be the one laughing.

    Is this a “BIG” game for GSW or just Saturday?
    How much are our suspensions going to hurt?
    Will Black see the court? => jk

    For the first question,

    Rockets thoughts


    and ummm, Warriors thoughts

    "I think about what I'm going to have for breakfast," Kerr said prior to tipoff against the Lakers. "I also think about lunch, what we're going to do at practice and what movie my wife and I are going to watch that night. "There's plenty of time to think about the Rockets and the Spurs and Cleveland and everybody else who's challenging us. And it's a good position to be in, knowing people are thinking about us."

    I am just being realistic. On paper, no team can beat them. I would love to be proven wrong tho.

    I live in College Station and DirecTV isn't showing the Rox game on our ABC channel. It's showing instead on The CW channel, and that channel is not HD. Anyone know any more about this?
