    Buttler is fine and it's going to be a much tougher game 3 with him back.

    If you woulda told me before the season started we’d not only be in the playoffs, but tied 1-1 against Golden State I would have called you insane.

    What an incredible ride.

    TNT Crew doesn't want to blame Draymond for shoving Amen into Butler causing the injury even after they replayed it for all to see.

    Come on you freaking bit¢hes!! You ALL know it's Draymonds fault for being dirty and it cost you a star!

    Amen brother.

    Thank god Jalen fell into one of his hot nights.

    The unfortunate thing is, he's shown four years straight of proving he's going to make you look like an even bigger idiot than you do right now.

    I seemed to have struck an awfully tender nerve when I pointed out something quite obvious.

    Oh boy you better pray Jalen has more of these games he's proven he can't string together repeatedly.

    We all know Jalen is a confidence player. It was so good seeing him get some confidence and find his stroke when the other team's key perimeter defender exited early, and played with that confidence when he was already in front.

    People like you seem to not quite grasp the fact we need this Jalen when the going is tough. It's such a shame he's proven for four years straight he can't do that.

    Leave it to a Jalen stan to think mass shot attempts for mass points = best player on the floor.

    Gs has been exposed without Butler. They wouldn't have been a playoff team without him.

    If the Rockets win Game 3, GS will be in great trouble.

    Go Houston Rockets!

    Depends on the mri.

    doctor that follows the nba on twitter says if mri determines a fracture he will definitely not be back. Steph had a contusion earlier in the season and missed several games.

    Jalen was much better. Need to turn it up even more on Saturday.

    hopefully, our defense will travel

    Took him a step or two to realize he caught an elbow.

    Warriors fans crying about Amen but it was nothing. If it were, there would have been a fight or scuffle.

    I don't know how much of a push was there on Amen but his leg clearly hits Draymond's, you can even see Green's leg buckle, I think Amen tripped, felt contact, and AT WORST was just trying to sell a foul.

    If he's going to undercut someone I doubt he'd do it with his face. Amen also has 0 dirty plays in all of his career.

    He clearly landed on his left buttock then got a tremendous stinger on the tail bone. He is fine and that MRI will definitely be a negative.

    Yep...we don't have to have Jalen score 38 (it's nice) but also can't have him score 7 either. Consistency is the key for him.
