    Not torn at all. I hope GSW sweeps all competitors. I can ignore ESPN for months, no problem. My Hate for GSW is extinguished knowing the ridicule, teasing and scorn the Rockets will get if someone else beats them to beating the Warriors.

    I agree but Bucks looks super good right now, with or without KD ...that could be a toss up.

    Lillard has been straight up trash in this series.

    Watching Lillard this series makes you appreciate Harden even more.

    I haven't been paying attention. I hope Bucks get swept too. I have nothing against Giannis, but the incessant, relentless, ceaseless dick-riding if the Bucks beat the Warriors would be unbearable even if it will be earned.

    A sense of urgency is definitely lacking. The same with the coach. How many times did MDA say “we’ll be fine?” The Rockets lack the personality of a killer instinct and seizing the moment. You see that drive and “understanding the moment” in the Bucks and the Warriors.

    The warriors are proving my theory that they could’ve still won a championship with Durant putting up role player numbers.

    Him scoring 30 or 40 is not needed for them but just a luxury.

    It’s almost like this is the same core that won 73 games.

    Portland needs to shoot more mid range shots to eat into this lead.

    Agreed. Sometimes it looks like they want to stay confident and calm to avoid being panicked. But, you can be both collected and have a sense of urgency at the same time.

    Of course the competition plays a huge role in performance, but I do think these criticisms are more within our control.

    When the wound was still fresh, I though...Man I hope the Bucks destroy them but now Im begrudgingly wanting GS to do well so we can save face. Its a lilttle depressing, but losers cant be choosers. :(
