    2025 East Semifinals: (2) Boston Celtics Vs. (3) New York Knicks

    Maybe the Basketball Gods Just Hate Us

    I know it was probably inevitable, but I'd add Yao's injury. And I still maintain we win even without CP3 if Moute hadn't been injured too.

    ClutchFans Game Thread: Warriors @ Rockets 5/4/2025 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 7)

    Rockets Offseason Primer: Can they afford everyone?

    It's frustrating because the rebuild is ahead of schedule but taking the next step seems extremely difficult and easy to backfire.

    What do you want the starting lineup to be next year?

    ClutchFans Game Thread: Warriors @ Rockets 5/4/2025 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 7)

    The “give me Harden over FVV” takes are embarrassing

    Jabari Smith

    ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Warriors 5/2/2025 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 6)

    This is the most improvement I think I've ever seen from a team I follow over the course of a series. I'm blown away.
