    Do you believe we can win 4-1 over Warriors?

    The energy level on our team isn't where it should be. We should've came out the gate pushing the pace setting the right tone. To me, this is on CP. He's the experienced leader but is out there making rookie turnovers.

    Uhh it’s kinda broken into 2 parts where they talk about it, if you just skip past the bucks Celtics talk the rest of the way is all pretty good.

    That's exactly what I talking about earlier.

    Was there contact? Yeah - but the huge jump/spin-away thing, already started even before the contact - the refs see that and they think 'Nah, too much embellishment to even tell if there was contact that caused the over reaction'

    Rockets need to stop exaggerating contact and just play. Don't intentionally fall down, or act like you just got shot by a sniper.
    Its all grown men playing - it should take more than incidental contact to knock you down.

    lineups are too small. oReb 10: 18.
    players mistakes. TOs: 17:12
    that is 8+5 = 13 more possessions for warriors. assume on 45% FG minimum, that is equally at least 13*45%*2 .= 14 pts wasted more by ourselves.

    I have grown to hate Whitlock I hope this guy fails in life.
    He’s one of the worst rockets haters I’ve seen can’t stand this dude.

    Without Ariza and Luc, MDA just going crazy at his migets lineup. Rebounding is always a issue this season.

    That's fine. But age doesn't make you turn the ball over on multiple occasions. He should be able to run the offense.

    That flop by Rivers was very Kirilenko-ish.

    And the fact that I can actually use that term to describe a lot of players on our team is pretty disappointing.

    The Warriors player lines up like a football offensive tackle getting ready to block while setting a moving screen and THAT'S what you see?

    I think some turnovers may actually be caused by being more stiff etc, he just doesn't look as quick and reactive as he was...actually reminds of Dwight, when we got him here he was still good but he was just not moving as well as he did before when he injuries and age didn't caught up to him yet.

    The problem with playing the warriors is that they can start 4 of the top 20 defenders in the league at the same damn time and 3 of the top 15 offensive weapons at the same time as well.Our only strength was the bench but House needs to man up start balling and the seams for Clint

    Of course. I've seen the Warriors set that kind of screen a million times. I'm so used to it at this point. Literally nothing will ever be done about it.
