    The Warriors just aren't very good. If the Cavs were at full strength, this is probably a sweep. If the Grizzlies have Mike Conley, the Dubs might not even make the WCF.

    This is the series where Love would have absolutely thrived on.

    You are posting on a Rockets forum man.

    Not all of us are Rockets AND Warriors fans.

    Completely agree with this. They haven't looked "dominate " in the playoffs like they did in the regular season.

    Yeah, that's what really p-sses me off. The Grizzlies probably take the Warriors to 7 if Conley and Allen are healthy. And I have no doubt Cleveland would've smoked the Warriors if Love and Irving weren't hurt. Hell, even just having Irving might've been enough.

    they rely heavily on jump shooting (and are very very good at that). by nature they will be streaky at times, especially when the intensity level goes way up in the playoffs. hard for them to look "dominate" in a conventional sense.

    A lot of people hated the Warriors prior to the rockets series. Not everyone is just salty. Plus most people tend to root for the underdog and would love to see a game 7

    Delly + Shumpert = One of the worst starting back courts in the history of the NBA finals. This has to be the 2 worst teams I've ever seen in an nba finals. Cavs lost Kyrie and Love but if GS don't blow these dudes away by 20 pts in the second half I will never figure out how they came out a western conference with the Spurs, Clippers and Grizzlies.

    Because they never played an intact starting lineup or a starting PG during their entire playoff run. It has to be the luckiest, flukiest playoff run ever.

    Iguodala is passing up open shots...Refs allowing them to play, I like it.

    Team defense is a thing. The only other team to give them trouble was Memphis. Another team with good team defense.

    Anyways game over. LeBron sucks tonight.

    It's funny how ppl around here fault the gsw like it's their fault where each circumstance came in each series. That's out of their control period. But ppl want to disregard them because of it.
