    Although I think harden is the most valuable player for his team Curry is such a spectacular player... Just a magician with the ball.

    Warriors are a lock for the Finals.

    You just have to tip your hat to GS, honestly. This looks like their year.
    Of course I think we're all overreacting a bit as well... it really is just NOLA.

    Maybe I'm just a huge hater, but I feel like the Warriors are the luckiest team in the league. I don't think they're as great as everyone says, they've just caught every break this season

    I know GSW is VERY good, and they have a cake walk to the WCF, but my goodness 1 half of basketball and you guys already think they are a lock.

    LOL, and so what. You need luck to win. If the basketball gods blessed the Rockets with a little luck would you be mad?

    You know the Spurs are in the Rockets bracket right? inconspicuous shade thrown at the city of Houston. Sizzle doesn't think the Rockets are good enough.

    The Warriors are a great team this year but like I've said before I believe they have been very fortunate this year with all the injuries in the West. If all the better teams were as healthy as the Warriors in the West, I don't think they would have been this dominant and ran away with it. They remind me of the 06-07 Mavs who won 67 games. I don't think they lose in the first round like the Mavs did but I don't think of them as an all time great team either.

    I obviously wouldn't be mad if the rockets got a little luck, but that's because I'm a ROCKETS FAN. When other teams get lucky, I'm not going to be pumped about it.

    If Warriors constantly play with only one true big man, then you have to counter that with Davis at center. Bench Asik and play smallball ffs

    Asik is sucking it up even on defense now, it's sad to watch him regress so bad. I was hoping he & Davis would give the Warriors a good competition in the paint and at the rim.

    The Rockets are just very good at extracting the most a player has to offer
