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

2 for 8 on 3s just lol

 

Not at the game. Can confirm.

 

Jalen Green only shows up 1 game out of 7. I can't wait for the mental gymnastics the excuses will be for him tonight.

 

[Posted this in the wrong thread earlier]

It seems like the Rockets thought they would win just by showing up. The nerves gave them dead legs on defense which is why the Warriors had so many open 3s. Every 3 that Hield hit was uncontested and it wasn't always because Curry was a decoy.

We've got another half to play but unless they solve the Warriors zone defense, they have no chance.

On one possession, watching Jalen pass up an open 3-pointer twice by passing back to Amen (who was ALSO on the 3-point line) proves beyond the shadow of a doubt Jalen has no guts whatsoever. I flat out do not want him on this team next year.

I have serious doubts about Jabari, but out of desperation, he must get a chance early in the 3rd quarter to hit some 3s. If he doesn't, yank him out and put DB back in.

If Jalen continues to play like a sissified creature who is scared to pull the trigger, pull him out after 5 mins and make them his final moments on the floor as a Houston Rocket.

Tari looks like a deer in the headlights.

Alpi still can't hit an 8-10 foot shot, which is pathetic. When a mouse is guarding him, he must attack quicker instead of spending what seems like 10 seconds surveying the floor. I just don't understand why he can't process faster.

 

Calvin looks absolutely depressed during halftime coverage. It is depressing losing to THIS Warriors team.

 

It's more likely that the warriors go up by 20 than we tie the game.

 

Either we win the game BY 20 or the refs give it to them because the STORYLINE IS

Ant beat so many greats in 2 years in the playoffs and he is the new face of the NBA

has to go through Steph to build his brand

 

Huge mistake not keeping Chris Finch and not promoting him to Head Coach.

Ime Udoka is useless.

 

We are 16/45 overall.

Just baddd

 

GS 13 assts to our 3 as mentioned. The ball is NOT coming out once it goes inside...it just isn't. We are a half court take it inside offense.

 

Re read what I said. No one is blaming Fred.

 

This is as disappointing as we could play on offense.

Defensive plan working, but somehow Hield is MJ.

Infuriating stuff.

 

The double big is not working this game. Play Jabari

 

Not looking good rn

 

There’s a reason why only one analyst picked us to win this series.

Maybe fire stone first who built a 1985 team who can’t shoot which predictably was going to be our downfall in the playoffs. What did our GM do during the deadline? He made moves that the Hornets would have done, accepted garbage for garbage ass picks. No 2nd seed GM would even waste their time doing those moves yet Stone’s trash ass is incompetent.

 

Agreed, run and gun and tire them out.

 

It's unlikely man but the playoffs are filled with guys getting hot for a night. Hell, remember we won a series because Corey Brewer and Josh Smith turned into all-NBA players for a game.

Tonight Buddy thinks he's Curry and he's playing like he's Curry, so eventually we will have to respect him like he is. I think we need to just play straight up defense, you got your man, switch on the shooters, because I think he keeps getting open because Kerr figured something out.

 

you already know curry and butler will come out firing in the 3rd quarter.

 

12 points aint ****. thats like a 3 minute run in basketball.

way too early to start being sad boys
