    Narrative will always deserve its own Thread.

    If this were to actually happen, I guarantee you all the narratives would somehow allude to the Warriors losing the series instead of the Rockets winning it.

    They got complacent, they took the Rockets lightly, there was infighting, Steph was still hurting, they were looking ahead to the Cavs rematch...

    Blah f%$king blah...

    Very tricky from @hakeem94. this is less of a prognostication and more of hypothetical challenge.

    For safety.

    Rockets and butt sweat. A bad combination for the Warriors.

    Durant going lightly so his buddy can win title

    Worriers were bored / injured

    Refs were on Rockets side

    Worriers beat themselves

    The narrative will be:

    The NBA is broken! If a traveling and initiating contact opportunist like Harden and a career flooper like CP3 can dethrone the greatness that is the GSW - then obviously something is very broken and the rules committee will have to do some serious revamping of the rules!

    ...not saying i agree... but you asked what the narrative will be....

    When I said that CP3 was the biggest loser of the offseason, I meant winner and what happened was it was opposite day so I said loser.

    I am thankful for the rockets because they made me look forward to a Monday for the first time in my life.

    Curry broke a fingernail , that's the only reason the Rockets won.

    "The only reason the Rockets won is because MJ retired."

    thank you all for the insights but i dont think i heard very creative and, most of all, logical narrative at all yet...do cf doubt rockets so much they cant even think of all the possibilities..

    ps i am dissapointed the most with media conspiracy experts @Os Trigonum and @DreamShook

    -Media will be trying to figure out why the Warriors switched uniforms and wore Rockets red all series long
    -The ball was deflated
    -The empty seats in Houston thew the Warriors off as they thought it was an exhibition game

    Durant cements his legacy as the most pathetic ring chaser of all time. Guy is born 7 feet tall with handles and a jump shot, and still had to go groveling to a 73 win team to get a championship.
