    Also, if the Warriors are going to go big and pack the paint, I think that benefits us. They are playing OUR game at that point, and I think 9x out of 10 we will win an ugly rebounding/defense focused game.

    I don't mind that 1st.

    We didn't even have a surge. I didn't love it, but we defended and rebounded well.

    Keep it up!

    Lack of offense is concerning but holding the Warriors to 18 is very good. Rockets have shown they can win ugly.

    Ime’s brain dead rotation is definitely going to cost us.

    21-18 after 1

    High energy -- but low-scoring

    I'll take it

    '94 Finals never had a game with either team reaching 100

    Rockets just gotta stay focused. Limit the careless turnovers and keep up the effort

    Warriors 2-10 from 3 in the first quarter. We'll take it.

    Ime got way too cute at the end of the quarter. But all in all a good tone setting quartet. This Dubs team is 3 has-beens and a bunch of cupcakes.

    I'm not going to set myself up for failure by expecting competent rotations from Ime. It's just not a thing he does.

    They're letting us be physical for the most part so I'll take the non call elbow to the hip on the last drive

    I don’t mind using one of the defensive wing when we have Sengun and Adam. 4 none shooter is bad idea

    Interviewing players mid game is just clown behavior.

    amen, you need to drive and kick. or drive to score

    i know you're decent at those mid range but warriors want you to do exactly that.
