    You’re back! I hope you and your family enjoyed your trip to the upper reaches of the Amazon, or Rio, or wherever you went. I’ve never been to Brazil, but would love to go someday. I’d like to go back to Japan first, though. Parts of it are stunningly beautiful and one of our kids can speak Japanese. She’s a prodigy, or something like that. The problem is that she would rather go with her contemporaries. The nerve!

    you call it karma i call it a proof they cant win without the refs...they won so many games and trophies because the refs helped them gain the momentum

    durant would have never won 2 times finals MVP were he on the wrong side of the calls and if he stayed in OKC playing alongside 1 star instead of 4..so now his image in fans eyes is obscenely exaggerated and overrated

    even on cf he is considered a better player than harden eventhough all this is based only on refs helping him and having better teammates than harden who wasnt even allowed into the finals by the refs...his rating is not based on the basketball plays on the court....

    so for the first time when he finds himself on another side of some incorrect calls he is losing games to the inferior team?.. thats not surprising at all...

    its only surprising for the ppl who fall for the media hype and the official history...those who believe rockets didnt win the title last year and thus having an incorrect value judgement on quality of the players because they dont value players now based on the performance on the floor but rather based on what scott foster decides is a better basketball play....

    because , as per play on basketball court rockets were the champions last year and harden was the finals MVP while worriers lost in WCF..... its no wonder they are in danger of being upset in the first round now because its a natural process of them declining or never being that good in the first place... they are missing scott foster and tony brother .. their 2 most important pieces from last years squad.... of course they are losing without them even before the wcf

    Warriors must-win game is Gm 6, they ain't winning Gm 7. Last year they got it from us, they ain't getting it again. I hope they play Gm 7 because I want to see destruction in their own building and in the very last game in Oakland (Oracle or whatever name they call it).

    Definitely staying up for this game tonight. Won't turn it off, even if gs goes up by 30.

    I will, however, have to rein in my usual Friday night wine consumption if I want to keep from falling asleep, though.....

    Wow that clip of Draymond wanting the music to stay up, Kerr definitely not happy with that. He's probably tired of Draymond's antics anyway. Glad there's some turmoil there. Are they talking about that play with Draymond's charge where he had the shoe in his hand? If so then there's nothing to cry about, that was a legit charge drawn. The head snapping back has nothing to do with that.

    I don’t. This may sound crazy but I do not want the LAC to win this series. I want GS.
    I want the honor of taking down this dynasty to belong to the Rockets.

    As an older Rockets fan I have grown to hate the “we only won because we didn’t face Jordan” story line or the “ we only won because we didn’t face Seattle” narrative.

    And please let Iggy stay healthy.

    I want GS in the worst way. No excuses this year.

    I want to beat the GS Warriors. And I think we will beat them in 5 games or less, book it, place your bets now.

    I get what you are saying, I really do, but there will always be excuses. It will be that they didn't have DeMarcus Cousins lol.
