    LOL, the Warriors would've win OKC without Westbrook. Houston fans are such homers.

    I was totally rooting for the Rockets in the playoffs, and now that they're gone, go Warriors! Yes, I know that Jackson was a dik head not letting us get that extra 3, but hey, the team plays like 12 minutes away from me, so why not? Go Warriors!

    He's the worst defensive player in the NBA.

    From 2-0 down? (neither team was going to take a game in okc while westbrook was playing)

    Warriors would have won. Say Westbrook gets hurt exactly like he did and misses game 3 on.
    Don't see the warriors getting blown out in the 1st half like we did which cost us game 3. Their home court is too good. I see them taking all 3 home games which means they have to win 1 road game. I would bet on that seeing as how they have either won or barely lost in 4/5 road games they have played so far.

    I think the joke is Chris Rock spelled Allen Iverson's name wrong.

    Lee is a horrible defensive player. They honestly do look better without Lee, especially with a healthy Bogut.

    The Spurs went small on their run in the 3rd q...no Duncan. That's a perfect time to have Lee destroy Tiago Splitter on the offensive end. Don't use this addition by subtraction argument unless it involves a rookie (or otherwise untested) player coming in because he's been held on the bench behind an All-Star.

    Besides that...the point was about next year. Of course Lee is valuable as a player or asset. You want everyone during the regular season.

    I don't get why rockets fans feel threaten by every up and coming team and homer up together to explain why the rockets still have a better team or a brighter future. Are you guys THAT insecure?

    yes, we all are. We all should be. With 30 teams in the NBA, if a different team won each year, we would have to wait 30 years in between championships. Just think, when you have repeat champions, it means that some franchises have to wait longer.

    I'm not sure David Lee could destroy Tiago Splitter. He's not a feature offensive player. A healthy, mobile Andrew Bogut is more valuable to them.

    Lee is just another soft perimeter guy who plays no defense. They already have enough of that in Curry, Thompson and Barnes. Bogut brings size/phyiscality and keeps a useless chump (Festus Ezeli) on the bench most of the time.

    If Bogut plays the entire season next year with Lee, Warriors could be a top 4 team in the West. It's not a stretch to assume Barnes and Thompson will improve. Maybe even Draymond Green will be worth a dime. But they'll have to replace Jack and Landry.

    Warriors are a one hit wonder.

    They will still lose this series and become irrelevant for years to come once again.

    Bogut and Curry are too brittle and will be injury prone in the future. They have no bench and Lee plays no defense. Thompson is just a shooter, provides nothing else more.

    You act like the Rockets aren't an up and coming team with a bright future. That's not being a "homer", that's just the reality.

    Please get over this. This was over played to begin with. No one in any Warriors forum gets a crap about the situation anymore. I'm sure the Rockets have other things to worry about. Why do you want to bring it up again?
