    Dream and his crew would destroy these Warriors 4-1.

    Reason being our bench will be able to out play their bench.

    Robert Horry would give Green fits.

    Vernon Maxwell will shut Klay down.

    We would match their production from downtown.

    And nobody on that team could handle Dream.

    I'll give you guys this: there's no doubt Hakeem would be the best player on the floor. None of these warriors can take over the entire court like Hakeem could.

    So you're one of those guys who think he would stop Tim Duncan in his prime? Draymond Green is one if those players who are decent, bring high energy and are not afraid to defend any player. He IS nothing but a good role player who fits so well with the Warriors system. You guys overrate this guy so much. He'll be average at best if he was with the 76ers or any lottery team. Just please stop it with these "he's so great" remarks. Stop please, seriously, I'm not joking....

    I believe he is referring to the man defense and the illegal defense rule. Hand checking would slow Curry down but they are still a really good team.

    idk. hard to say.

    but that rockets team had heart. this gsw team, idk. but each time i think of them, the first image jumps out is curry chewing the mouthpiece. kinda "cool" image that fits this generation...

    if i have to guess, i'd say rockets in 6.

    Stop trying to imply Tim Duncan is better than Hakeem. You know nothing about basketball. More than that, if you just want to try and pick a fight go do it with someone else in another thread you jackass.

    He stated he was referring to 90s defenses vs today.

    He either...
    1) didn't consider handchecking and other physicality
    2) doesn't believe handchecking (and other physicality) is much of a factor

    OMG, you f***ing moron. Since when did even said Tim Duncan is better than Hakeem? Why are you even bringing that subject up that I didn't even mention. Do you know how to read, idiot? I said "are you one of those who think Draymond Green can stop Tim Duncan in his prime?" Idiot, I never brought that discussion about Duncan being better than Hakeem. That says a lot about your idiocy.

    I was originally thinking Warriors would win but I think if those Rockets slowed the game down with their half court offense and let Dream take over...I think it would likely neutralize the Warriors up-tempo style and they would not fare so well in a half court offensive duel with the Rockets. I think Hakeem would end up dominating inside on both ends in that scenario. And, that would be the difference.
