I have a good feeling they are faking their injuries because they know they cant beat us for the first seat and save face instead. They will be resting their stars for the playoffs...hope we are ready for them.
We have been extra cautious with our players too. I’m sure Ryno could play right now if it was the finals. We probably held CP3, Ariza, Nene, Clint, and Luc out longer than necessary too. Health is most important to GS right now. The same is true for us but I think we need home court more than they do.
No, they are not faking. If you saw the plays when the injury occurred it's easy to see the injuries are real. And we haven't won anything yet.
Imagine the excuses that will be giving by everyone once the Rockets win the championship this year. Rockets won’t get no credit for winning it... “Warriors were just wore out for doing it for four years straight”...if not for Kevin’s broken rib and Klay’s broken finger and Steph’s weak ankles” blah blah blah. Just like the Jordon BS all over again...
We won? We won what? We will probably get the first seed. Which is neat. The Rockets have never been the first seed before. But they don't give out trophies for being first seed in the regular season. Ask the 73-9 Warriors
We won? Poor choice for a title... I'm sure it's the whole WC waiting outside the warriors that need to be defeated first. Then the matter if who comes out the east....
James Harden is the new King. Golden State has always had problems with him and Lebron and now harden has some real help to let him rest for 10-12 min a game in cp3. Think about it besides Lebron harden is the only guy who’s actually taken a few games from GS over there 4 ur run and he’s puts up huge numbers and keeps most of the game close. Now he’s got cp3 he’s got the monster in the middle who rebounds and dunks everything (what Dwight was supposed to do) and defenders and three point shooters everywhere. Then you bring in the little tank EG who can score 15 points in 4 minuets. Ya I know why golden state is resting everyone. Thy gotta be a full strength to even have a chance. Harden tried telling everyone 4 years ago that he is the best player in the nba and everyone laughed. Now he’s confident as hell and just dumping on everyone and talking crap to anybody who wants it on the court. I don’t agree with SAS about much but he’s right when he calls Harden the new Kobe. Not because they play the same but because they both are obsessed with basketball and winning. Harden works harder than everyone and it’s unny because all his ex teammates have always said he works harden even Mchale said he’s a gym rat but yet some on the beautiful forum dump on him saying he’s lazy lol.
I doubt they are fake. Omri Casspi just went down too. I'd be more worried about our players that are on Bourbon Street right now.
GS players are dropping like flies. Most injuries are the long-term nagging type. I would rather the Rockets play a fully healthy Warriors team, but that appears unlikely to happen.
Heck no, I hope everyone on that team gets the 9 plagues of Egypt. Yes, including a hailstorm of fire, and three days of darkness, but not including the death of the firstborn. Those guys rode injuries to victory in the playoffs for their first title and have been super blessed with good health in general. It's about time they experience a dose of adversity.
