    We’re still nervous. We’re getting good looks on offense and playing solid defense so I can’t complain. Once we calm down, we can get a grip on this game.

    Man... Could have been a 15-20 point early lead if we make those wide open 3PT shots.

    Warrior is getting sloppy but rockets needs to get their transition defense tighter. Especially if they're gonna miss a lot of shots. Too many missed lay-ups early.

    Not just missed threes, but at least three missed layups too.

    Missing wide open shots. Lots of energy but only up 2 smh. Not a good sign.

    Both teams look stiff and out of sorts. These threes will fall but GSW will also execute better. Gotta keep on attacking

    Missed opportunity but this is looking good to me. Our defense is on point and looks sustainable. Offensively, shots will fall.

    If I had a dollar for every open 3 this team misses, I'd be Jeff Bezos....

    this is gonna haunt us. You can't play better defense than that.

    It seems like we are shook by our own crowd. I can see the adrenaline going

    Rockets are playing really good defense.

    All Warrior scores are on transition.

    Excellent defense? They’ve been giving up layups, that’s why MDA called a timeout.
