    This.

    I am pretty confident we could win a series against the Warriors without Durant. That dude makes the task of beating them 4 times nearly impossible. I watched the Showtime Lakers, the Bird Celtics and M.J., and I am not sure those guys could beat the current Warriors roster either. They are not only talented, but also synergistic in the way they mesh that talent.

    Having said that, fark them.

    Well, the Showtime Lakers lacked a 7 footer who can do it all on midrange and can shoot the 3 frequently as well.

    Choke City How? This team didn't give up 20 point league like the Hakeem Rockets to the Suns... This team sucked in game 1 and 2!! Golden State has the best set of shooters in History with two MVPs! We come out flat it's over? How you choking when you're not even the favorite? You got to go out and get a Lebron by any means necessary to beat this Warriors team!

    This hasn't been a choke. Where do people come up with this stuff?

    There is an element of choke in there, we had Home Court, we pissed it away - that is the definition of choking.

    With margins so thin, you can't afford to let up for one second, GS has been more locked in, than Houston - we need to reach another level and stay there.

    We lost 1 game at home to arguably one of the greatest teams in NBA history, and could regain it tonight.

    We never had a series lead, we did not lose any big leads, and are overall an underdog in the series. If there is an element of choke, its incredibly minimal.

    If the rockets don't go out and compete and make this a competitive series, then I'm done with the NBA. No point in watching anymore if the warriors keep crusing to the finals. We all thought this team would put up a fight but we saw what happen last game so idk. How bad does the NBA wanna drag out this series? will find out tonight
