    Warriors are 2014 spurs and we are the 2014 heat in this series. We need that ball movement

    Terry went from guaranteeing rings to guaranteeing better play? Yuck.

    Only Kobe is a dedicated basketball messiah you idiot. You can't even compare Harde to D.Wade much less Kobe.

    i dont know much inside info. but dwight was holding sth. back in his words last night. that much should be obvious.

    and i was never sold on harden, either. i've said it a few times here that he'd be a perfect #2 on a championship contending team.
    btw, from a pure bball perspective, his game isnt even that fun to watch imo.

    but he's what we've got now. so i guess i have to live with it for at least next few years.

    Dwight thank you for telling the truth again and even more candid this time! Yes everybody quit! Can Terry please shut up. Of course you're going to play better, you can't play any worse..

    Harden was the #3 guy in OKC. He's still playing like the #3 guy too.

    Josh Smith's effort and the switching PnR defense killed us

    When Curry was boxing out Dwight. Dwight could have hunched forward like he was making a play for the rebound and then land on Curry. Curry out for the series and Rox win.

    Just moment a Warriors fan shouted at me that Rockets is garbage, and they feel ashamed at playing with us. :(

    That is sobering. While some of the trades were necessary, building team chemistry is important too.

    From the previous poster "that team owned Golden State".....

    Are you admitting that you guys miss Jeremy Lin? :D

    I have to poke at the Rockets fans here. Given your CURRENT PG situation (no Bev and two oldies), I'm sure you would take Jeremy Lin (warts and all) over the the oldies.

    The Warriors of two seasons ago were younger and less experienced from the starters but because of the bench, could hang with the current squad. Jarrett Jack and Carl Landry were solid veterans. Why the Warriors were getting smashed? Maybe because of Jackson's one "track mind" offense and defense. If Kerr had that team they could have done better. They were also injured in the playoffs.
