    Warriors fans are blaming the scuffle with Pat as a reason his ankle is hurt I'm seeing on Twitter lol.

    The Rockets will still lose. If this was a home game and Curry was out.....nah, the Rockets would still lose.

    Losing to the Curry-less Warriors will just make tonight more embarrassing for the Rockets than it was supposed to be.

    In Rockets defense, GSW won without Bev and Dmo against them last year.

    Either way... GSW wins by 17 instead of 30+

    Which explains why he tested his ankle and got frustrated that he couldn't play?

    Nice spin.

    If the Warriors took the Rockets as a serious threat, he'd be playing. The Warriors held him out because they know that the Rockets have zero shot of beating them in this series.

    If Steph is even at 90% he shouldnt play because he doesnt need to. Didnt you see him messing around with his shooting trainer before the game?

    How is that a response to my post? He said that Curry held himself out despite being 100%. Curry has an actual injury. To what extent is debatable. Also--pretty clear that Kerr made the final decision.

    And yes--he was testing his ability to shoot.

    Judging from the pre-workout, he looks ok enough to play. They just don't think the Rockets a threat enough that they have to play him.

    Doew this Rockets squad really deserve someone going this lenght to defend them? A team with no heart, effort or IQ?

    Nah seriously we're still huge underdogs, but hey. If there was ever a chance to take one game from Golden State at home, here it is.

    He could sit the rest of the series, and we'd be lucky to win 2 games.


    This team has the talent to beat the Warriors, or at least give them a series, but the cohesion is nowhere near where it needs to be.
