    lol not sure if you’re being serious, but if u are then relax...KD will cook an inexperienced rookie like Zhou who will be completely overwhelmed...not to mention with all the switching that we do and all the communication that’s needed there’s no doubt that Zhou will be fcking up rotations left and right

    I thought we played a very good 1st half in game 1...the Warriors were mainly in it because KD was hitting everything

    however, things fell apart in the 3rd and we couldn’t recover...GS is the best 3rd quarter team in the league and outscored us 31-24 in the 3rd...it’s absolutely essential that we win that quarter

    we also have to win the periods when both KD and Curry are out of the game

    They had a great offense, they just let GSW shoot over 50+%

    This.

    I would like us to play a more physical game. Bump, reach, etc....It's not a foul until the zebras call it a foul. That's how the enemy get away from theirs.

    What's the worse that it can happen? Lose a game? Please...

    If you are going down, take the enemy with you!

    QUESTION: Is there anywhere you can listen to it on the Radio in Houston?

    Yes. Sirius is doing a free promotion right now. Craig Ackerson says to use that. He also suggest synching to the video, for those watching with a DVR

    Immediately after the game was over, my thoughts were that if we couldn't win that game, then it would be extremely difficult to take any of them.

    Having more time to think about it has given me more optimism. Harden won't be hitting like that every game, and it's silly to expect him to. But I still see some solid room for growth. It is no secret that Luc, EG, Tucker, and Ariza HAVE to be better for us to have a chance. I think there is also some room for improvement from Paul as well after last night's performance.

    We missed layups, left guys wide open, and made it look like we didn't even know our defensive matchups at times. These are things that can be fixed, and I trust that our guys will figure it out. If they don't, then we are looking at an 0-2 hole going to Oakland.

    It's going to be tough, but it's possible. Let's buckle down and take this one tomorrow; I'm so sick of these punks.

    No Nene. Ryno and Iso Joe in. Play Luc more, I don't care about his offense.

    funny, I don't see @Mr.Scarface or anyone else from Team Sweep saying that this is going to be a loss. Maybe they have reconsidered their position. :D

    I’m gonna say it. This game thread needs more Arnold Schwarzenegger gifs.

    I hope the Rockets don't ever leave Steph, Durant, or Klay to guard anyone else, have some more ball movement and run plays for Gordon / Green and also play Ryno at the 5. Hopefully he won't be scared to shoot this time (a couple go in and who knows). They can't get demoralized by bad calls or 3s either.
