    Simple question and private poll.

    Here’s how I broke down the series so far.

    Game 1: warriors earned a hard fought win

    Game 2: Rockets responded in a human nature blowout game where the warriors threw in the towel

    Game 3: warriors responded with a human nature blowout game where the rockets threw in the towel

    Game 4 will be more like game 1 where a team needs to nut up and earn a hard fought win imo. I think it will be close.

    I believe it will be a dogfight
    Hope the Rockets get the win

    I'm jaded at this point this is the 3rd series we have played against the Warriors during their run and we have yet to win one game at Oracle. I am in the show me first before I think we can win this series.

    I did, until yesterday.

    We ignored the things we learned in game 2 and honestly the warriors didn’t even look that great, we just didn’t have the will and and mental fortitude to seize this series.

    Sooooo, now I kinda don’t believe

    If we just take one game at Oracle we'll be better than any other team that has come before against this rigged glamour team.... but we have to put in the effort to win the physical battle. This season is nearly over, there's nothing left to rest for. Knock some heads out there...

    If the Rockets has lost by ~ 10-15 points and looked like they cared, I'd be more optimistic. Instead they stopped playing ball in the 2nd and let the Warriors make fools out of them repeatedly to the tune of 41 points and bunch of gloating behavior. That's hard to recover from.

    Is it? Or does that make easier to recover from? Dantoni said that he made sure his guys didnt play heavy minutes and reserved energy for game 4 when it was clear they would lose game 3.

    I mean like 15 points of those 40 points were from warriors scrubs badly outplaying rockets scrubs in garbage timd

    The rest is nice but a lot of the game is mental too. You quit early once, it makes it easier to do again, especially if things start to go bad. Warriors also got to play stress free most of the game and rest their guys too. I just hope the Warriors are too overconfident for their own good..but overconfidence can work for them, especially with the talent they have.

    I believe, I also think. We aren't gonna get a "A" game from both teams till game 7. Which will probably go to o.t. N be one of the greatest playoff games ever. That's just me doh

    No privacy needed here.... I voted NO.

    It's not an indictment on the Rockets, it's just saying the Warriors are all-timers.

    Oh, if you do believe, it doesn't make you better fan than someone who doesn't.
