    The Rockets playing with energy and despite it being a 15pt deficit it feel closer for some reason..... The sad truth is no one is beating GS for who knows how long..... They are the new Lakers...

    Statistically speaking, switching on defense is moe effective

    At least the team is playing relatively well. Just happens to be against the unstoppable Warriors.

    On the bright side we should beat the **** out of every other team in the league.

    Yeah, like I said in the other thread(8 man rotation), 15 ****ing deep. (Slight exaggeration, maybe).

    Get it to 5, it's back to 15 in 30 seconds.

    Tough game. Warriors are on fire, and our transition defense needs MAJOR work.

    Glad we get this lesson to start the season.

    It's made the NBA boring.

    I've lost interest since KD joined the Warriors.

    It was almost like cheating and taking the easy way out.

    It should have been blocked by the NBA

    Either Paul or Harden need to learn how to not just stand there when they don't have the ball in their hands.

    That drop from those 2 is major lol.

    I'll say Spurs / Thunder and Celtics (Healthy) have us beat as well.

    I want to see Tariq Black or Joe Chee. MDA needs to expand the lineup to see if anybody can do anything against these guys.

    It did, and the salary cap didn't jump as expected, making it even harder to move Anderson.

    Meanwhile they signed guys for cheap because they came beginning on two knees for a ring

    The best thing you can do as a fan is boycott all Warriors national TV games. I've sworn not to watch a Warriors or Cavs game unless their playing the Rockets.

    Thats my favorit defensive lineup.
    Paul, Gordon, Ariza Tucker and Capela.
    When Paul will get it going it will be lethal
