    Yes.......they could.
    The Rockets are a great road team...

    BUT...

    The Warriors are basically confident the Rockets won't win.

    15-0 in Since Durant has joined the Warriors in the playoffs at Oracle.

    Every Expert assume the Warriors will be up 3-1.

    I guess the Rockets will lose in 5 (Gentleman's sweep) or in 6.

    We've beaten them at Oracle in a playoff type experience with a hobbled CP3 a nearly full strength GSW squad (no Iggy but Young went off).

    We can. The real issue is if we've overcome the mental pressure and learned to meet in-game hardship with composure and execution.

    Yes. I REALLY think the Rockets will win at least one at Oracle.

    I also REALLY think that this is a weak, lame thread

    if we were up 2-0 i would say no way because our mentality would have been to protect home court, but now that we have to win atleast 1 in Oracle, they will have the right mindset and come out strong similar to game 3 in utah

    Holy crap OP. We could be up 3-1 and you would make some thread about warriors in 7.

    Are you sure you are on the right site? Warriors world is that way 8========>

    Can you list every single expert and their opinions? I had no idea the basketball world had a 100% consensus on anything.

    The rockets are pretty confident the warriors won’t win, so that basically means Rockets in 5.

    Glad the warriors don’t think we can win in Oakland. They will keep getting surprised if they don’t take us seriously

    The Warriors are due for an L at the Oracle. I don't see them going 17-0 after Tuesday's game. Go Rockets!! H-Town Crazy!! Believe It!!(Circa 1994 Playoff Run!!)

    Aren't you the same kneejerk who said we would be swept after we lost game one?
