    LOL at Kenyon saying he's MORE "eye test" than "analytics", but then when asked about a percentage, he said "50/50". Yeah, real deep understanding of numbers there, Kenyon. Stick to calling out guys on their haircuts bruh......oh wait, Jeremy Lin clapped back at you on that too. Moron.

    KM:I was never into numbers. I'm all about winning. Did we win? Did we play well? That's all I care about?
    ...
    Who wins in the Golden State- Houston series?
    KM:Golden State
    Why
    KM:They average 30 assists a night

    Moron. Martin describes Chris Paul’s game......which is the same job description for say, ummm point guards!!
    CP3 needs the ball to get assists or turnovers.......yeah like every other point guard!!

    On another note: teams can limit the Warriors 30 assists if the opposing team focuses on their cutter action.
    Pack the paint and force the Warriors into a jump shooting team.....play close to Curry/Thompson/Durant.
    Others open.

    people WANT to see the warriors lose... they do...

    but we need to be a bit more likeable during this series (dont argue with refs, don't flop too much, just hu$tle). That and we'll basically have to play flawless basketball to beat one of the greatest teams ever assembled.

    ...there's always hope.

    I don't care if we whine, cheat, and steal our way to a championship. We're not doing that right now.

    **** all them doubters.

    Amazing how this garbage comes out when cp3 makes his 1st wcf, and the team isnt playing their best yet still winning. If it is anything on the rockets its they lose in 5, lose in 6,Mike d is overrated, harden chokes cp3 chokes, etc, ad nauseam. How many times does this have to be repeated? If GSW have it as easy as the sports media would have you believe why keep hammering these "hot take" points? The worry is real....

    CP3 was very disliked in LA... Luc definitely never wanted to play with him again. JJ Redick also wasn't ready to join him in Houston.

    And don't get me started on how PJ Tucker didn't want to play with him.

    They have to play flawless to even get one win off of us.

    We're the greatest answer ever assembled.

    Kenyon Martin the 1st overall Pick by the New Jersey Nets, A Bust like he and Blake Griffin have in common is dunking and running. Both never developed a Low Post Game, or develop any moves or hook shot. Outside shot is horrific. Both extremely raw and never improved you career Jason Kidd made Kenyon somewhat useable and Chris Paul made Blake Griffin a dunk artist both underachieved. 2009 draft Harden, Curry achieving more in their careers than Griffin.
