    Draymond Green is how you support your stance? Pathetic. Rockets just walked over GSW tonight, did you miss it?

    When did I say chemistry doesn't matter at all? It's just not as important as talent, get it? Too bad your own GM disagrees with you, because Morey has made it clear that talent is the #1 predictor of success in NBA. It's also pretty funny that you can't say anything nice about Ariza's playoffs performance, because even you seem to be aware that Ariza has been completely useless in the post season. People always rag on Harden for not showing up in the playoffs, but the real issue is our role players turning into hot garbage when it's no longer the regular season. And that included guys like Beverley and Ariza.

    nothing on harden's block.

    just the warriors not playing like themselves.

    Morey's opinion on talent vs chemistry and Ariza's complete failure in the playoffs is the basis of my stance.

    Interesting, because based on your argument we should have never traded away Bev who was the heart and soul of this team. But muh chemsitry, right?

    All I know is this. Get off ariza folks. I feel what y'all are saying n god knows I cringe when he dribbles the ball. But saying ariza ain't a starter on a championship team is like saying iggy isn't lmao. Everyone knows iggy could start. They thing with ariza is the same thing like harden. They get so much demanded on them in the past. Travor is older. He needs his minutes dow. I 100 percent bet anyone. He gonna be balling when he comes back. Like a 5 3 pointer game. That's why I say rockets need all th3 key guys back cause they make everyone's mins go down. U just watch. It's gonna be different this year in the playoffs. Like I always say. Our only weakness now is another big. To compliment nene. Man n omg. If somehow we had Kenneth Faried he's like a younger version of nene that'd be badass. I know thwts not possible. But mwn a rebounding nlack hole type plwyer would just be awesome. N Morey always like faried. He would replace black/nene. Pipe dream but I would love him

    We are close to getting ready for LIFT-OFF. One more PF/C, and the return of Ariza, and we should be on our way!
    This win is a BIG morale booster!
    Go Houston Rockets!

    Curry is their weakest link in defense. It does not take a genius to figure that out. Now Warriors cannot hide Curry when both Harden and Paul are on the court.
