    I don't know if i'm happy the Warriors are about to lose the chip or not...normally that would be good news, but i wish the Rockets were the team that was going to beat them :(

    Warriors can’t beat this team without KD.

    Even though I would be dead under this policy: I now support a Logan's Run model of "renew" at about 35.

    Kawhi might just take the Crown of best NBA player this year. He is just incredible.

    Btw mostly from midrange, and currently the Raptor are looking to go 3-1 vs Warriors.

    Why is everyone crapping on Morey for Kawhi's mid-range game?

    He's one of the best players in the league, and the mid-range is his shot. It's not like a Quinn Cook or a Normal Powell is consistently making mid-range jumpers.

    Can't contain the smile on my face.

    The Warriors wanted to dominate that quarter so bad, and it f*cked with Green and Curry's minds.

    This quarter is everything and Kawhi seems like he's ready for it.

    I’m sure if Toronto goes on to have a dynasty I’ll eventually hate them too lol.

    But this is a clinic of everything to love about basketball. One man dominating. Coaching dominating. And role players dominating. Just off effort, hustle, confidence, etc.

    There was a play there near the end of the third where it looked like Dray was lined up for an offensive rebound. You know what Kawhi did who was under the basket? He turned around and boxed him out. Rebound gathered. Not complicated. That’s how you win basketball games.

    Thank you, they can't keep Morey's and Harden's names out of their mouths.

    What are you even talking about? Insecurities? You are the one who is advocating quitting before even playing!

    I want my team to never give up and I believe that is very talent team has a chance vs a weaken Warriors team. The irony of your aspersions.

    They think Morey doesn't mind letting CP3 taking mid range jumpers, but he would mind Kawhi taking them, and the only way to disprove it is if he lets all the Rockets role players take them. :D

    Because it’s become very clear over many playoffs now when you limit yourself offensively in terms of variety of shot it comes back to hurt your offensive efficiency. That’s why the Rockets always drops a lot in the playoffs every year.from an ORtg perspective.
