It would be a fun matchup to watch, but that pick is apart of the Rockets' future. The higher the better. GSW may have to play SA or LAC in the second round and those teams can give them trouble/eliminate them. Rockets don't have to worry about them until the WCF if they stay at two.
I said that because I refuse to believe that you saw my opinion, and went (emotionally) straight for a bet where a GSW team that is 63-15 and has looked dominant, will annihilate an average west young team with no playoff exp that is 42-35. I refuse to believe you went fully bully mode, when you know that is the opinion of half of this world. If someone wanted to make noise it would have to be me, because I have the "unpopular" opinion on the matter. Still no need to go further until the matchup is confirmed, but regardless GSW will not be a dominant team come playoff time, they might dominate games because Curry goes ham, but there is no shooter that can shoot at an insane level for 15+ playoff intense games.
Right, but Curry rarely has to be dominant for them to win because they have the #1 defense in the NBA to go with the #1 offense.

Happens every year, Lakers get blown out almost every game against the Clippers but there's always one game that comes down to the wire. Lakers are going to win this.
Hahaha a Rocket fan can hope. Clippers are breathing at our backs! A lost to the lowly Lakers would be huge for us.
