    The Rox are letting themselves get mentally beat. They need to remember that TNT the NBA all the pundits and casual fans want and expect GSW to win. We need to come out with the attitude that the pressure is on GSW to deliver

    If they stink up the place this series I truly believe both will be gone next year some how.

    I don't like any line up that doesn't include Clint. He does a ton of intangible things

    Well, neither team is playing that well and we have yet to go to our bread and butter thus far with Capella at the top of the key with Harden. Im expecting a heavy dose of that in the second half.

    Gotta hang in there and keep scrapping .. team needs to return physical play with some of their own.

    I'm not liking the way this is going right now. Houston needs to make a couple of shots and put the momentum back in their favor. That turnover by Gordon was a killer. And it's frustrating, because the Warriors can't defend the paint, but the Rockets have had wide open layups that they've screwed up now on at least 4-5 possessions.

    Losing the turnover battle + Klay outplaying Gordon = Loss

    We need ultra instinct Harden consistently to beat this team.

    Durant joining is a joke.

    He deserves an asterisk no matter how great a player he is.

    Not a great game by the Rockets so far. Capela not being involved is playing into GSW hands

    Yeah, our bench should do a better job, even though, their bench still has two all stars in so it's not exactly trash, but Luc blowing layups and Gerlad sleeping on defense were pretty bad...

    You should have seen this forum when we were up against the Twolves, 3-1 series lead.
