Steph is different. They’re a completely different team when he isn’t healthy. He is far more important to the team than KD, and the statistics prove that. Any GS fan will say the same. If he does not play in the playoffs, they are done. They cannot beat this Rockets team in a 7-game series without Steph. If he does play but is not 85+% healthy, they are extremely vulnerable, and I would still take the Rockets over them in a 7-game series. No matter how you slice it, Steph is their MVP and this string of injuries to him is a big deal.
Unrelated to this injury, but still don't get why he even played this game. The Rockets should look at giving James some rest at this point and let him finish out the last few games of the season to keep rhythm.
Shaq must be laughing so hard because now when javale messes up he has to ignore it like it’s not happening but everyone knows
right and i like them more at full strenght, rockets have history of letting their guard down when opponent is injury depleted or down a lot of points
It’s become too powerful. At this rate the warriors may miss the playoffs entirely from the negative vibes. Then who will it go after?
These negative vibes are like "death" in "final destination" Even if you escape it, it's coming back for you!
Agree, but imo without steph they are capable of beating any team in the playoffs except us and okc, which is why I think they can advance to the 2nd round without steph
Good god yes, please lock this thread before the GS team plane goes down in flames or something horrid like that...
Should definitely lock it... and save it for when we need it most. Like the Lost Ark of the Covenant.
