    Sleepy Mike needs to shake this bunch up. Put in House and Clark.

    he's not exactly hustling his ass off if you notice...2 fouls,1TO and 4 rebounds of which 2 bounced right to him.

    It's okay 3 more quarters... Hopefully the next 3 go good

    for the three 2-2 tie semifinals this year, all the home team (Raptors/Nuggests) won big yesterday... today is no exception...

    get ready for G6, and hopefully we fight again G7!!!

    Harden seems to be the only one they are concerned about. Constantly edging him off the pick n roll, forcing the pass to someone else. Unfortunately, neither Capela nor Shumpert are good enough offensively to do anything.

    We need a really good Gordon and CP3 game tonight. They need to make plays off the dribble and hit some 3s. They can’t just be average.

    Please no more Gerald Green. Would rather play Clark or House.

    I'm okay with this right now.

    Warriors came out punching. They did the same last year in game 5 as well, then the game settled down and we did grind out a win at the end.

    Just have to keep fighting and playing smarter.

    It's crazy how atrocious our offense is on the road. If we struggled against the Jazz and barely won that game, I don't see us winning a game in Oracle. It's pathetic because you could excuse young guys being rattled but not veterans.

    How do you get better on the boards Mike? Play Faried, give Nene 4-5 minutes this quarter

    Now they're starting to double Harden knowing the other lot are playing badly.

    I'm still waiting for Paul to actually step up in this series. He should be averaging way more points and assists for the amount of money he's on.

    They aren't guarding him. In this offense, if he gets an open 3 he has to shoot otherwise he's unplayable.

    Man only - 8 rebounds felt like 25

    Eric Gordon goes from hitting everything to nothing. It sucks.

    Does anyone know why Faried is inactive tonight?
