Took a chicken ***** play by Draymond Green and a timely turnover by Smith to let the Warriors squeak by. If Howard comes back and both Harden and Curry stay at their same pace this series looks winnable.
Crisp execution, annoyingly efficient guards, a raucous home crowd, big guys that play dirty... Holy crap, these guys are our new Jazz.
Wow, it's like you are reading my mind. I agree with everything you said 100%. The only thing left is to have some fair officiating.
It only takes 1 thing. Take Curry's mouth guard from him. It's obviously his security blanket. He plays with it nonstop and is obvious comforted by it being there. Wish someone like Josh Smith would walk up to him while he is walking around with it in his hand, snatched it,throw it in the stands then say you nasty F'n kid!! Go wash your hands!!
Come on man, they won 67 games. Advanced analytics say they're an elite team both on offense and defense. We need to be clicking on all cylinders to beat them.
Face it, folks, the Warriors are just better at NBA than the Rockets are We should totally crown them after 1 game.
They scored a lot of points on fast breaks which shouldn't have been fast breaks. I'm talking about situations where we could stop their breaks if our guys had just ran back instead of gambling on easy passes immediately after turning the ball over which created a whole lot of 2v1 or 3v2 opportunities for them. The team needs to focus more, they mishandled so many easy passes, Harden would probably have had 15 assists if the guys could just hold on to the ball. Playoff Dwight >> everyone else, slightly injured Dwight < Capela, It's that simple, his game relies on athleticism entirely. No more small ball. Last night Tjones < Capela, seniority aside, it's obvious when Tjones is struggling, make the necessary adjustments
Yep. This is why we need to put Capela in there a lot more. The only problem is that he can't space the floor, so we can't play him with Dwight, but he or Dwight needs to be in the game at all times.
Too bad Dwight is limited, but Capela playing 30 minutes isn't too bad of an option. Hopefully, Dwight can play and be less limited for the 3rd game.
run that lineup with harden at point more often. more capela. still play dwight if he's 85% - we need him still grabbing boards and patrolling the paint.
