    How come Pringles couldnt call these adjustments in the second half last game? We mightve had a chance.

    Getting mighty sick of hearing the TNT crew mention Curry's 'injury' every time they bring up his subpar first half.

    Maybe it's because he is a subpar player when people double hard on picks? I swear to god basketball fans with high IQ know more about the game that made them famous than these idiots.

    And just lol at those calls to end the half.

    Got to keep it close I guess is the directive.

    Brilliant first half apart from some stupid defense on GS drives.

    Made 3s obviously help.

    These boys better be in that dressing room right now screaming at each other to weather this storm and we got this.

    We will lose the 3rd by 5 points then lose the 4th by 6 points and win by 3.

    This is ridiculous, we haven't changed much but guys are just hitting shots now. They're acting like we've switched up our whole gameplan. Even got a b/r notification saying "Rockets get away from iso-ball, up 14 at half" lololololol

    So Harden only hold the ball for more than 10 seconds 3 time in the first half. Good!

    Off ball movement after initial breakdown via iso

    That’s the difference.

    I saw curry throw Ariza off him and nothing was called. That Harden offensive foul can be called every time.

    Of course they not talking about the defense.

    The difference was defense turned into offense.

    I knew it was going to happen. He did it two times before they called it. Gotta be smarter there.

    The only thing TNT has said right. The Rockets need to do things early on in the shot clock.

    I was just thinking that up 14 at home with the Rockets playing engaged yeah, no team can come back and win, but against the Warriors i'm not as sure. Just need to come out strong in the second half though.
