    I see a lot of people complaining about the FT disparity but c'mon guys lol, Warriors just destroyed them and didn't need the refs "help" to do so. NO didn't give a crap about defense all game and they just thought they could score with them. The Warriors played good D and shut them down. Pelicans have to play much better defense to have a chance at winning a game or two.

    Yeah, I think all this talk about brackets is silly. The Rockets got a great path to the WCF. So did the Warriors. But you know why? Because both teams were head and shoulders above the rest of the Western Conference. The Rockets won 65 games, and the Warriors would've won way more than 58 had they remained healthy. The 3rd seeded Blazers finished with I believe 49 wins. And they were swept by the 6th seeded Pelicans.

    Curry returning for game two, might be a wrap.

    Curry with a trash haircut means he's going to have a trash game.

    I'm glad Curry is healthy and hitting his threes.

    Now, there won't be any excuses when the Rockets beat them.

    Man I hate the Warriors. They are not in the same category as the Spurs, Bulls, etc. and other dynasties of the past. Those teams 'organically' built their rosters with mid-tier acquisitions. KD changed all that for the Warriors by now having on the roster three max players. There are few to no weaknesses on the roster, and it makes it borderline impossible for other teams without that same collection of stars to compete. I so hope we wipe the floor with them.

    This pace is unsustainable for the pels. This is why Harden methodically walks the ball up and Iso's You can't get into a frenetic shooting match with GSW.

    this is why iso ball is the only way you have a chance against the warriors

    Yep. Trying to outgun GS is dumb. NO needs to make it a dirty, slow, JVG type of game.
