Honestly the major concern with Golden State is that their center tends to not make the playoffs. While it can happen to anyone, he seems to always be that anyone.
Irving is overrated. He is a shooting guard trapped in a point guards body. Love is slightly less overrated. Lebron is slightly less overrated than love.
I guess some people can't look past what's supposed to be a gimmicky offense, in living and dying by the 3.
Agreed they aren't playing well, but the Warriors look extremely good on both ends of the floor, esp on defense. So it's not just the Clips playing poorly, GSW is dictating a lot of that poor play in this game. Not gonna lie, they worry me now that Bogut is back and healthy there is a lot of depth on that team (more so than on the Rox bench at this point anyway).
I don't think we're downplaying them, it's just annoying how the media annoints as this great team when they haven't accomplished s**t. Last time I checked they brought in a new coach and their season ended last year at the same time as us, the first round.
Kind of weird the Rockets win against the Jazz in retrospect looks pretty good. Other home games, blew out Phoenix and now beaten the Cavs.
Spurs struggled tonight against the Hawks. Got some help from the refs late in the game. Game tomorrow should be a blowout. Then as long as we beat the Warriors at home, no hater can deny that the Rockets are the best team in the league.
Rockets have pretty much owned the Warriors in the Harden era. That could be why most feel confident against their team.
Plus it's all about matchups in the NBA we matchup very well against GSW. Not so well against the Clippers. Rockets have a better chance of beating GSW than the Clippers
