ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Warriors 5/19/2015 (Western Conference Finals, Game 1)

If he plays defense like in Game 7, I'm all for it, but let's see what happens with our usual line-up first

 

either way, the Rockets have to commit to double teaming Curry. Prigs is pretty good at that--i say go with whomever is playing better between Terry/Prigs.

 

Klay on the outside and Dramond/Iggy in the inside waiting on him I am sure that's what they going to do. But, can they solve PNR between Harden/Howard? We should run it way more often in this series.

 

Vegas Series odd

Rockets +550
Warriors -850

 

My goodness it seems the media thinks the Rockets shouldn't even suit up... I cant wait till Tuesday.

 

Gutierrez on around the horn about the Warriors heavily favored to win the title:

"Warriors are a little banged up but probably more healthy then the Cavs and Warriors. The Rockets are healthy but the Warriors completely dominated them during the regular season. Yeah they should roll through this. "

So not only does he completely ignore the fact we're down 2 starters but he ignores who was playing on our team during those four games. Research wouldn't hurt boys.

Damn lol

 

I don't think you understand the concept of team defense. Please go back and see where JJ funneled Harden. Then go watch the GSW games from the regular season and see where Klay funneled him. Those guys are not defending him single-handedly.

 

Man the only reason im nervous is because the Warriors play godly at home.

I honestly think they arent THAT good, good team sure but not all that.

Hope the Rockets bring it.

 

Definitely agree

 

Lol so I went to DVD tomorrow nights game... and it says:

<2015 NBA Playoffs: Team TBA at Warriors>

Cmon! Heh geez...

 

Praying that we see a Jordaesque Harden. Not upset at his stats so far, but I want him to impose his will mightily. I want him to belittle Steph in the head.

Praying and excited for a miracle.

 

The best description of this team is an avalanche. They can put up 10 points so fast and seemingly so easily that you lose heart. Part of that is them getting into a rhythm. If the hacking strategy has proven anything, its that it can disrupt rhythm. One strategy may be to hack if an "avalanche" starts. Fouling Igoudala or Bogut (or Green or Lee if they're not in) just to disrupt their offense.

This also has the added bonus of turning us into the villain. A role I secretly want us to embrace.

 

DVR. ..lol stupid phone autocorrect ing to DVD ahahaha

 

...maybe I just can't type. Sigh.

 

Harden goes for 40 and Rockets win; media attributes it to GSW taking the game off cuz they got nothing to worry about.

Steal this one and shut everyone up!

 

I think Harden (and/or other players) should throw out more comments like "they're not even that good".

Mess with their heads, especially Curry's. Right now, they're just playing like a machine.. do something to disrupt that.. even if it's off-court BS stuff. All you need is for one of their key players to play outside of their system, and you steal a win.

Worth a shot, imo.
