ClutchFans Game Thread: Warriors @ Rockets 5/23/2015 (Western Conference Finals, Game 3)

Steve Kerr with a subtle dig at Harden and houston - "steph was steph- HE is the MVP"

It was subtle- but it was a dig.

 

Your pay for this game will be $20...because you played like a $20 hooker.

 

The Rockets played horrible and deserved the loss. It was painful to watch as a Houston fan.

However, I want and EXPECT the NBA to level a fine on Curry for the disrespecting of the Houston Rocket fans. It is unsportsmanlike. Not only that, he is the MVP, and as such he represents the league. So he needs to grow up and act like an adult instead of an adolescent.

 

He's a fantastic shooter but I didn't see an MVP player and still don't

 

When your leaders are soft and your coach is a joke things like this happen

 

Josh Smith tonight was just hilarious, but he wasn't the only one. Rockets can't shoot, can't defend, can't make free throws, basically they can't play basketball, not against this team at least.

 

Make it easy for you ... Curry elite shooter on a team that emphasize off ball movement and team first mentality on both sides of the ball

Harden is a iso player with a average jumper playing in a system that emphasize 3 ball and pip with minimal off ball movement or passing.

Either Houston needs to change their offense or harden needs to do more off all movement

 

Howard, Harden and Josh Smith are lazy players. When you have players like that playing major minutes, they have to bring it every minute in the playoffs.

Say what you want about Brewer, Prigioni, Terry, Jones, and Ariza, at least they're giving effort every minute.

To Harden's credit, he has improved by leaps, but he still needs work. Howard and Smith have been in the league 10+ years and they still play like inexperienced players still learning the NBA game.

Same mistakes. Same dumb decisions. Same fouls. Same bricks.

LEARN.

 

Adding on to my previous comment, Curry is good and did win the mvp but I do still believe Harden was the mvp. He did so much with so little support, as opposed to curry with his well rounded 67 win team.

No curry, GS still wins 50+ games
No harden, HOU lottery team

 

If you can't see it then you simply don't want to see it. Dude is the mvp and its rather obvious.

 

Man we don't have 1 shooter. We need a reddick or Korver

 

That's the fact. What's wrong with it?

 

what is point of geting a play-making point guard, the ball will always be in harden hand. they should focus on getting him shooters.

 

Salvage this series by having Dorsey come in and Ray Lewis Steph and Draymond

 

Agreed, which is why it's moronic that we've been starting Terry and incredibly stupid of us to trade away Isaiah Canaan (a shoot first guard) instead of integrating him in the offense. His defense isn't good? Guess what, Terry and Prigioni are also horrible on defense.

 

Eh, it was a great season. Didn't expect a trip to the finals, didn't even expect a trip to the WCF. Really didn't even expect the second round after the last offseason. It's been a disappointing series, but the Warriors just have it all this season. No shame really in losing to them, although I'd rather not see the Rox get swept.

I don't remotely consider this season a failure. I will look forward to the offseason and seeing what we can do next season.

 

nah, he needs help.

When teams load up on him, no one else can make plays. We relied on Smith vs DAL and LAC, but somehow he's ineffective vs GSW.

 

he will get easier shots and have more energy down the stretch when they need him to have the ball in his hands to close out games.

 

Haha, I know man... But there's a shot, right? Yeah definitely don't place that bet... I wish we had a chance but definitely not a good idea to gamble.

 

GS hustle like ALL THE TIME on offense and defense. If you don't match their intensity, you are going to be run over. This is exactly what happened tonight. Watching the game, you would think they were desperate or something.

Give credit to Kerr. Dude did a job turning that team into potential champs. Urgh...
