    Something I have said in first game of the season: "Attack the paint instead of shoot 3"

    This series is far from over, the media dont know what they are talking about its been evident all year. Just adjust and believe.
    1.Dont stop. Dont stop believing. Dont stop attacking. Dont stop running. Thats what it will take to beat a team like this. You know they will score alot of points cant let that discourage you and go on mini slumps.
    2.More off ball movement. Even if it is just for a decoy, target certain defenders off the ball so they can move instead of stand and rest. Ex. Gordon& Green curls,Capela post ups etc. Capela can easily get his hook in the paint off over green,
    3.Nene cant see the floor again. They attacked him 5/5 possessions at one point.
    4.They stayed home on CP without helping off shooters. Give him more P&R situations and he will murder them if hes aggressive enough

    It's pretty simple.

    Do not let Nick Young get hot again.

    Rockets lost by 13 pts.

    Young had 9 pts. 3 threes.

    Also, instead of Anderson or Nene, how about giving Tariq a chance. He's exactly the type of energy we need for the backup center position.

    What do you have to lose?

    Game 1 was close for 3 1/2 quarters. Rockets definitely have a chance to get even. Then Game 3 becomes a must-win for Warriors. Go Rocks!

    if the nba is rigged like a lot of people think here, then we should win tonight because the nba doesn’t want a quick series in its conference finals... i expect a lot of free throws for jimbo

    That loss on Monday night was all Crazy crowd in Toyota Center, Team just got shocked how many people show-up that night. And all of them were yelling like crazy, this never happened before thorough out the year. Ego,Tuck,GG entire bench was shocked ,no empty seats before game , felt like they played away game. Will adjust tonight , Game two on the way ,we will be alright .

    What if it's an OT win and Golden State still looks the parts?
