    Hope you are right, but eight teams in the West currently look better than the Rockets. Just about all of them look better than GS.

    Spread is us @ -15.5. Meaning we're supposed to win by 16 points for gamblers to get money?

    If they do pride themselves on Defense say at 50% and are hitting their shots sure, 30 not a problem.
    But they're none of the above. They play like trash & and barely trying on the defensive end.
    House is probably the only one out there trying on defense sacrificing his body in most play.
    Harden is back to his none trying state sucks & hard to defend him when ppl bring up the fact that he doesn't try.
    Wish the dude would show consistent heart on the D side. He's one of the leader of the team, at least frigging try.

    Rockets are 15,5 to 17 point favorites in tonights game. How many of you think they will beat Warriors by that many points. I have bet on sports for over 50 years.No way in Hell would i take Rockets -17 points tonight.The bet to take would be Warriors plus 17 points.

    You make some very valid points. in all seriousness I just don't think GS has the talent to keep up tonight. This has to be the worst starting 5 we see all season. This is what they call a "get right" game. GS was getting blown out when they still had Green and Steph because their defense may be worst than ours. I think the Portland game was a complete fluke, but i guess we will see tonight. I will humbly eat crow if we don't destroy this team tonight.

    One Bill O' Brien special coming right up!

    But seriously.. imagine the team Morey built to beat the Warriors and we lose with KD, Klay, Steph, Draymond, Iggy all out or not on the team.

    Tilman probably would stop going to the Church of Moreyball after that.

    Did anyone find out yet, why we are having a 6:30 game on a Wednesday?

    Rockets will kill them by 15+. Expect a good game from Russ and Harden with another 30+ game. Idk what it is but this year's regular season doesn't seem all that interesting at all. Our schedule has been very bad and still only 4-3 but no interesting games in the regular season so far

    weird right? I won't bet against the Rockets out of principle, bad juju on that money. But that would be my bet today. I want to be wrong, but I feel we will find a way to make it close

    Hoping to see House's evolution. He played really well last game. Seizing his opportunity.
    Anxious to see our rotation without Gordon.
    Hoping to see another triple double, we can debate all day about the hows, it's still amazing to see a human will himself to that milestone.

    These were the kind of games where James went bananas last year. Hoping he feels challenged on the scoring side and takes it agains his rivals tonight.

    I would expect big **** energy from our guys tonight.

    Enjoy the game fellows!

    It’s all about defense.

    If we play no defense to allow those scrubs to have easy layups, it will be embarrassed game again.
