    Too much BS here about how Curry and Klay are unbeatable after Rockets choking.

    This isn't about the Rockets. Toronto is playing fantastic team basketball, it's exciting to watch and the fact that they are getting it done against Golden State makes it so much more interesting.

    In some other dimension where Houston beat GS the Rockets are probably getting rolled by the Raptors too. They are ridiculously deep, love to share the ball and find the right shot and there is no weak link defensively. How could you choose the arrogant douche academy over that?

    Warriors losing the raptors is not a good look for the rockets.

    Well, I live in the Bay Area, and the Warriors are insufferable to me. I would cheer for basically anyone but Dallas or San Antonio to beat them at this point.

    Also, I like Lowry, and Ibaka, and I like Nurse.

    Raptors are the more talented team from top to bottom. Harden and Kawhi are essential a wash but they beat us in literally every other position. Coaching as well

    Who gives a ****?

    Like for real, you know how much everybody remembers conference semifinalists?

    Interest drops to zero after bout 12 months - until the next conference semifinalists. A slightly more or less noble loss in hindsight is irrelevant.

    If you can't appreciate the glory of a hushed panicked Oracle crowd you need to channel your hate better man.
