ClutchFans Game Thread: Warriors @ Rockets 4/20/2025 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 1)

Also, this is why I said Amen has to work on his jumper more than his handle. He’s been completely ineffective this game.

 

Tari and Sengun + 3 others for game 2 as the primary lineup?

 

casual fans will actually believe this is a Rockets stinker when in reality this is how we normally play on offense lmao

 

The year the warriors won against the celites they avoided getting the #2 seed because of the play in.

 

Rockets can’t make open shots. Just pathetic.

 

I mean 66-45, is pretty low either way.

 

Idgaf put Reed and Holiday in there defense be damned

 

Now the BS foul calls on Warriors to try and make things look even

 

I still trust this team. idc.

first taste of playoff basketball.

 

This is an eye opener, but it really shouldn’t be because we saw how this team can go on offense. Now the front office will panic and trade the whole team for over the hill players or anyone who has any type of offense. At this point, I don’t really know if that should be the route or not.

 

GSW have figured out us out. Just pack the paint and take away the lanes, neutralise Jalen, Amen and dare Sengun to beat them.

 

Defense.

 

Hav3 you missed his thousand layups and multiple 3s? Are you evrn watching? Your blind. Hes 9/13 from the floor.

 

GS is a much better defensive team than the Rockets.

 

I said from the beginning the backcourt is going to be the downfall of this team if they don’t show up.

 

He'd never do it but this is where you have to throw in Cam or heck even Holiday. You can't just keep rolling with your back court laying eggs. We used to see it with Gerald green sometimes those guys just come off the bench hot.

 

I like what I’m seeing from Tari tonight.

 

I knew this was coming as soon as you said you were here

 

Maybe it’s just the old coach in me but getting blown out in the first game might not be a bad thing.

It shows this young team how different playoff ball is from regular season and the level they need work to in the next games.
