    Most of the analysis in this series is overhyped. Pundits making much ado of a win or loss by a possession or two. These are all super-close games. "Play harder" decides who wins or loses.

    Our defense has been pretty outstanding. If we can keep that up, and if we don't have a terrible shooting night, I like our chances.

    Sometimes you start thinking maybe someone is right about the media. They build some narratives that makes no sense. They all think Warriors win in 7, but at the same time they all believe if Rockets dont win its surprising? Makes zero sense

    Also, how are Warriors underdogs if they are also favorite to win the series?

    That is some *****hit from a very media savy team, now we have to hear Kerr screaming at the top of his lungs about his rings and how those are the advantage. They are more scared than we think, but they are also very good.

    As some of you already said, this is it boys, the Beard and Point god facing the long time rivals falling, are we going to knock them out? I also see our lazy season long effort to get some 2man action between those 2 are costing us. We have never had a killer action between our 2 all time legends and now we need some of those.

    **** who referees, this is the most important thing:

    8:00 p.m. on ESPN: Western Conference Game 6 [#1] Golden State Warriors @ [#4] Houston Rockets Announcers: Mike Breen (play-by-play), Jeff Van Gundy (analyst), Mark Jackson (analyst), Lisa Salters (reporter), Steve Javie (rules analyst)

    easily said than done.

    when KD is not in the lineup, on offense, the ball moves faster, creating more spacing for
    the best shooting combo in NBA history. that's how GSW won their first two rings

    Our mental strength was lacking in Game 5. Will we play confidently with no margin for error? Our guys should take a leaf from Portland and Philly.
    Go Houston Rockets!

    I couldn’t careless about that. I’m specifically talking about this team right now and it’s current situation. That’s what matters. And those numbers show it

    Yup, we will. They are always the ABC crew and it's the sole ABC game as well. Western conference finals this year are ESPN too, thank god.

    Yay! Win or lose, it will be a much more pleasant experience listening to JVG rather than Reggie Miller.
