[Western Conference Playoffs - 1st round] (1)Golden State vs. (8)New Orleans

yes, the sensational rookie is definitely a major upgrade over the 2 old veteran PG right....

 

Tmac_1 being very trollish.

Your opinion doesnt count as fact. and hate to bust your bubble but lebron was great again this year and i cant stand the guy.

Westbrook is all hype and individual stats. During all his madness and fascinating games they played around .500 ball and failed to make the playoffs. Dont get me wrong rhough, he is brilliant and one of the best players in the league.

You can make an argument for about 4-5players being the best in league but there are 4-5counter arguments.

There is no right or wrong answer, just preference.

Btw you cant say harden didnt score in the 4th quarter and follow it by he only made 6 fts when the game was decided. No games are ever decided until its over and that is still 6pts in the 4th no matter how you slice it

How many points did he put up in the 4th quarter on NBA 2K15?

 

Whatever happen to predictability, the milkman the paperboy, evening TV!!!!

Damn, Draymond is tough but I hope he is alright. He first rolled it in game 1.

 

He should quit flopping so hard. That's tough on the ankles.

Props to him on everything but the flopping though. Would love to have a player like that. He played tough D on the brow, even though he's much shorter.

 

I love how some posters are trying to **** on Curry right now. Harden still hasn't shown anything in the playoffs yet his groupies already trying to start ****.

 

You sound pretty tough, what with the cursing, so I'm a little nervous about typing this to you but... you do realize you're on a Rockets message board, right breh?

Personally, I like Curry's game. It says a lot about his teammates, though, that he can not score in the 4th quarter and they can start to crush a pretty good team. It's not a knock on Curry to admit that he has a much better supporting cast than Harden does, at least this year, given all our injuries.

 

The Lin bandwagon left the station a long time ago bro. Did you miss it?

Now now, I know it's hard to accept Harden being 19582385x better than Jeremy.

But to say he hasn't shown anything in the playoffs is absurd.

I guess you don't remember the beatdown he put on the San Antonio Spurs or the Dallas Mavericks on the way to the Thunders lone Finals appearance?

"ohh but he wasn't the main focus of the defense"

DAYUM... If only Jeremy could've performed like that not being the main focus of the defense!

 

Jeremy Lin should go back to GSW. He's be a perfect fit.

 

Bob, you seem to be a reasonable guy in comparison to the other idiots who bring up Lin for no reason. Is Curry's supporting cast that much better then Harden's? This narrative wasn't even a thing last year and they have pretty much the same players on the Warriors. Houston fans acting like they got scrubs on their team besides Harden yet it was those "scrubs" that actually won you guys game 1 against the Mavs.

 

Wow. Suddenly, a wild Lin thread appears.

 

What is dead may never die

I really hate the Golden State Warriors. They're becoming insufferable.

 

GAME 3! Warriors have to continue to play great defense. Warriors won because of defense in game 2. Warriors have to move the ball a little more on offense and stop the quick triggers, unless Klay Curry gets into a rhythm. I give Pelicans a lot of credit for giving the Warriors a fight, but I expect the Warriors to win tonight.

I'm hoping for Warriors vs Rockets in WCF. Rockets are much improved after the mid season acquisitions. Loving the Brewer, Smith and Prigioni pick up.

 

Outside of the Rockets winning a title, my greatest hope is the Warriors don't win it.
