    The best thing about this is that it will be months until we play the Warriors again (WCF hopefully) and by that time we will have proven we probably are better than them.

    Harden and CP neuters Steph.

    Klay/KD depends on defense from Luc, PJ, and Ariza, but we're good enough to take em.

    Capela can pretty much contest anyone else playing the 5.

    There's totally enough room for people to believe in this team. Obviously, we gotta show up this post-season. We can't let this go to waste.

    Don't you know? You can't look at the whole quote!
    Take the part "We are better than them" and quote it out of context! That creates better headlines and talking points and drama and clickbait

    multiple sources of a source from broussard's source can confirm from another source that capela should have indeed said what he had said

    No. If you aren't an allstar, you can't talk ****. In fact, you should have to be at least an all star twice to talk ****. No exceptions.

    I don't understand why the Warriors, Green in particular, were taken aback by Morey's "obsession" comments. And to the analysts (forgot who, probably Max Kellerman) who say we should be focused on the Spurs since they beat us....the GSW are the obvious favorites to win rings for the forseable future...why would you put all your focus into beating the team below them? Why would you not obsess over beating the very best, as every team should always do, so that you can beat the Spurs and other secondary teams? NBA analysts are dumb.

    Guys like Green just feed on stupid stuff like that. It's like when everyone mocked Harden for his "They ain't that good" comment, like he was some uppity trash talker, when it was something he said in a team huddle clearly to help motivate his guys, sort of a "They put their pants on the same way we do" thing. Insecurity, I guess.

    Capela should have said, “F*** the Warriors” and “We ain’t taking no prisoners”

    Warriors can add it to all the other bulletin board material. Like “We are obsessed with beating the Warriors”

    “Bring your best, because that’s what we are going to do!” Two Titans in the ring slugging it out.
    Capela knows that they are gunning for us (Rockets). We beat them 2 out of 3 this season.
    They are not overlooking us, despite what they are saying.

    There is more value in Capela and Morey and any other Rocket voicing their belief that they can beat the Warriors than downside aka bulletin board material for the Warriors. The Warriors are already going to play hard, that's why they're where they are, already going to think they are much better than the Rockets, already going to try to bury the Rockets because they best the Warriors 2 out of 3 this season. OTOH giving voice to your aspiration helps.

    Watching this again, Broussard says Harden is front-runner for MVP.

    The other jackass, I don't even know what or who he is, saying "he's up there w/ Steph and KD."

    Wanna smack this mofo in the face, **** that. Harden is the clear-cut MVP.

    Capela will be the decoy knocking on the Warriors locker room door so that Chris Paul and company can slip through the secret tunnel.

    What Capela said isn’t even a big deal.

    tired of the manufactured controversy

    That guy with Broussard was the type of guy you have to punch to get him to shut up. I'm shocked that anyone thought he had enough talent to do this job.

    Geez - that one dude is trying soooo hard to be Stephen A Smith and Skip Bayless. I mean it's comical how cliche/unoriginal that dudes shtick is.

    WOW...people watch this crap? Who is that guy arguing? So annoying. Even if he was shouting FOR Capela, i couldn't bear to listen to him. I can't imagine it would be any better in podcast form.

    I'd rather watch DaDa praise every white role player as potential superstars for an hour a day on ESPN.
