    Bring the same type of D intensity and scheme (controlling Mitchell and Igles) and they are done. BTW, props bigly D for his defensive scheme and MDA for the players rotation. It was perfect.

    Losses are one thing, as long as the Rockets don't play with their food with the Warriors 3 wins away.

    They are 4th seed because the second, third, and fourth best players missed a combined 56 games.

    I agree,,, but i believe those caveats are the fear... lol
    I've said all along, as long as we're focused on winning - nobody can beat us... when we start thinking we can hedge our bets and guys are more focused on working their stat line - figuring the game will work itself out - we get in trouble...

    jus sayin... ;)

    We don't need to fear the caveats, they lost LeBron and are not even in the playoffs.

    Harden brought up the game two loss last year in the postgame interview. The team is fully aware of how they need to approach this game.

    Even if for some strange reason we lose Game 2, we will still win the series easily.

    I mean, does anyone seriously think the clippers actually have the upper hand against the warriors now?
