    Cp3 has to produce more than 14 points. Hell everyone talking about Curry's bad game but he still scored more than cp3

    I would say that a lot of focus must be given to scoring at least one point more than the opposing team, if we can do that, we will definitely win the game.

    We need capela to act like he has a pair!

    Use Faried as an energy guy. Always put Nene against green.

    Use shumpert for defensive purposes only.

    Y'all are over-thinking this

    1. Score a lot of points
    2. Keep them from scoring a lot of points

    Honestly this series is just rebounds and turnovers. Rockets outhustled them in Game 3 and won. Warriors did so in the first two games and won.

    These teams can’t just out talent each other like they can everyone else.

    Stop their dribble penetration to prevent easy layups and dunks. Was so frustrating last game.

    Jesus when people get obsessed with something they never let it go. This idea that everything revolves around rebounding has gotten so out of hand.

    We got outrebounded by 20 and still won. Rebounding is not the issue. We shouldn't get outrebounded by 20, but we have to focus on being more confident with our shots, especially Paul. Everything else was pretty good.

    Limit the turnovers and win the board battle. We had great shooting from Gordon and Rivers and Shumpert hit some 3s as well. I wouldn’t count on that every game. We need to try and prevent second chance shots against a team with HOF scorers.

    I wish Faried defense was better so we could play him. Goin small seems to benefit us against GSW

    I would add defense to rebounds and turnovers. Of course hitting shots makes it much easier, but those 3 things are important to keep us in the game while hitting shots to win depending on how defense, rebounds, and turnovers go.
