    Hopefully KD leaves this summer and restores a semblance of competitive balance to the league... this bs is too much

    Why does Capella keep switching on people he can’t guard?
    He needs to stay in the paint they are killing us on rebounds!!

    I agree, fight over it or when you run into it sell the moving screen. Maybe it gets called. Better than just stopping.

    Capela needs a bunch of work this offseason. He needs work on all his fundamentals like boxing out, i.e. ****ing do it. Needs free throw work desperately. Needs any sort of offensive moves besides receiving lobs. He needs Harden's athletic training and diet, because he's just not fit enough. He's already small, so he needs to get really strong and get his endurance way, way up to compete. And he needs to learn mental toughness probably most of all.

    Absolutely none of those things will happen, of course.

    Livingston and Iguodala making cuts and getting easy shots.

    Rockets have to struggle for every point. Warriors look sharp. The Rockets would be up right now if they could just take care of the basketball.

    Nene was putting in solid defense. I love capela but his numbers don't reflect his impact on this game

    they have more long, defensive players to help. for us clint is always away from the basket because of switches. if looney isnt there, they still have KD or draymond helping at the rim.

    I mean if their players are playing bad or our players are balling we could give ourselves some credit and say we’re beating them.

    Not arguing but you can’t say only the Warriors can beat themselves. We play them tough. Our (relative) success against them is due to our play, not theirs.

    He’s been disappointing. I thought he would have had the most fire how he went out in the playoffs. Just sad.....

    Clint is like Durant but doesn't have handles and can't shoot and little more clumsy.
