    This squad is so damn frustrating to watch in the playoffs.

    If we had five Tuckers on the floor this would be a 20 point lead halftime. Tonight it's just about WILL TO WIN.

    Is Faried out again? I'm sure he coul play well vs these Warriors bench scrubs.
    Offensive rebounds are infuriating

    Klay is a great player. Once he catches fire, you’re in for a long one.

    Thompson hit some of those shots with a hand in his face. That’s not why we’re tied instead of a decent lead. We should be playing with a lot more urgency. Tuck is. Rivers is. Who else?

    Judging by the eye test, we’re going to have to play much better to pull this win out and if that happens.... much much MUCH better in Oracle. Those who think we’re fine because we’re tied are delusional.

    Look for Curry to come big in the second half. Can’t take anything for granted here

    We aren't giving him many chances to even get shots. The thing I hate the most about our offense (I do like some aspects of it), is when Harden gets doubled and he makes that pass to Paul, Paul needs to attack -immediately-. You have to make them pay for trapping Harden. If Paul just catches the pass and starts to slowly ISO, everyone can get back to their man, and it just keeps the ball out of Hardens hand with no consequence.

    We have to get back to attacking when Harden does make that pass out of the trap.

    If this game was in Oakland, Warriors would be up 20.
    Dantoni and the analytics game should be gone.
    Bring players with positive energy and a desire to win.

    Moreys stats dont count in mental aspects. Hardens points feel very Bookerish right now

    Defensive focus and effort was atrocious. Losing our man after they pass it and watching the ball on the shot is the reason it is tied right now. We have to stay locked in for the full possession.

    If we do that I can see us getting a big lead in the second half.

    I think we win this series if we win tonight.

    This GSWs one shining moment, they are getting as much as possible from every guy they put on the court tonight...it still should not be enough to beat us but if it doesn't I can't see it happening two times in a row.

    Faried and House need to get some playing time. Need some hustle on the glass. Chris Paul doesn't look good, maybe he's not healthy.

    Getting rid of analytics completely is about the worst thing you could possibly do. I'm not saying heart doesn't mean anything, obviously it does and that's why Tucker is so valuable...but to say forget analytics is like to say "Forget what actual facts say."

    I know Harden had 19 but he’s got to be more efficient. 33% shooting and 3 missed free throws. This is the time when he’s got to step up even more.

    Rockets should have a solid lead but they're playing like they don't want it. Is this an elimination game or the last game before the All-Star break? Even the crowd is dead.
