    Beating the Warriors first on the way to their third Championship is going to make such a great story.

    Just so proud of Green and how he responded. I gave him a pass game 1 but I still think Rockets need to upgrade from FVV this offseason.

    someone consistent as a backcourt mate will help Jalen so much

    That's the kind of people that are in San Francisco. Always complain about other places being mean (i.e. NYC) when we're just more honest and less two-faced than them. Steve Kerr is a shining example, even though he's not from there. For all his preaching about diversity, and equality, and playing the game the right way, he's just a hypocrite in the end.

    If Ime would have just made some offensive adjustments in game 1 we would be up 2-0 instead of hoping to steal one in the Bay.

    I don't think that's fair to Harden, he literally had a 38 point game in his first playoff series against the Thunder and hit a big shot over Ibaka to essentially put that game away.

    That said, I think that was game 5. And his third or fourth playoff series. For Jalen to have done this in the second game of his first EVER playoff series off of a horrible performance says a lot about his character!

    Very important win! That was a straight win from beginning! No Chance for the Warriors i think the first game were exactly the same game if one of our PG hited their shots. Jalen Green had an amazing game. I hope that he play similar at the two games in San Francisko. Alpi play solid and the rest had also a strong game above all in the defense.

    Harden had big games but I never saw that killer in him, seeing FVV defer to Green and letting Green handle the rock in the 4th during the most crucial part of the game was so impressive at such a young age.... And the best part, he came through in the clutch.... Sure Jalen has a long way to go but man his future is bright, he has that Kobe in him..... Loving it...

    I saw one comment about Jalen not scoring 38 again so they’re good.

    Agreed. We need Amen to wake up and be much more aggressive. And don’t let Draymond punk you. Get him like you got Hero and Giannis if needed.
