    Analyst..."Dwight Howard could not TAKE ADVANTAGE of a small line up". The truth hurts but it's still the truth. This game wasn't lost in the 4th qtr..it was lost in the 2nd qtr. when Dwight couldn't take advantage of what was there. "The rest of the players didn't show up...in particular, Dwight Howard" said Jalen Rose.

    Jones did foul him after he shoved Brewer out of the way ... They didn't whistle the TJ foul

    Refs were a problem for sure, Harden should have got at least 2 more trips to the line.

    You can't blame them though when Dwight went down and Jones played the last quarter. 2-10, seemed to struggle to get above the rim on some of them.

    The big thing is the length of the runs we allowed Golden State to go on and attention to detail. Too often we would be confused on when to switch or stay on our man, allowing open layups, failing to control the glass.

    We will out rebound the Warriors on the floor, not in the air. Box out, then we can control the glass rather than try to out jump a team that matches us in athleticism.

    This one doesn't sting nearly as much as the Clippers losses. Boys played hard and came up short against a great team. A week ago I would have written the Rockets off halfway through the Warriors run in the 2nd, but I think this will be a close series.

    I hate to say it and point one finger like that, but if he'd had a normal game, even just rebounding strongly, we might have stolen this one.

    Terry wasn't having his best game either.

    Harden was incredible, against supposedly good defense too.

    Ugh...I love ESPN trashing Howard as if he was healthy out there :rolleyes:

    I'm sure if the Warriors win this series we won't hear a single flip about the players we had missing.

    No he said Harden is just an iso player but that the Warriors did a great job on him and will continue to in the next games.

    Didn't show up? His knee got slammed into by Smith. That's like saying Mario Elie didn't show up after you undercut him and caused his wrist to get broken, Jalen.

    If only we could have held Shaun Livingston to double his season average for ppg rather than triple
