    Yeah bandwagon fan since 1972, some long assed wagon.

    I just don't believe we have it this year. Nooks post nailed it.

    Would be ecstatic to be wrong though.

    I honestly think Utah is easier than the spurs. Gs in the second round is better because the rockets won’t be fatigued and injured.

    Rockets gifted either the Spurs or the OKC a WCF appearance.

    They have 5 all stars. Curry will rest during the easy first round. I bet he’ll be fine for Round 2.

    If you get ecstatic about our team it will be the the first time in 20 years. I look forward to it.

    Yeah they’ll appear, and get beheaded as soon as they walk in the arena with their heads in the clouds.

    If I’m Warriors I absolutely do not want a Patrick Beverly going against an injured Curry heading into the second round vs Houston.

    Worriers better be very worried. A Durant lead Worriers has no chance against Rockets.

    Loved last years team, but generally been a long time since I felt we had a legit chance, felt it last year, don't this year.

    OKC has the easiest path to the WCF in my opinion. Perfect scenario for the league considering the narrative all year long was only OKC can really challenge the Warriors.

    Last year’s team was *special*. Both eye test and analytics showed it. This year’s team doesn’t have that.

    Maybe they’ll get hot in the playoffs, though. We’ll see.

    Why people care about a path to the WCF?? Losing in the WCF doesn’t get you crap (unless you’re Clint Capela lol)

    Rockets fans should care about path to a ring. With a second “star” that gets hurt in the playoffs regularly, you want to face the GSW earlier not later.

    I.D.I.O.T.

    this post cuts thru and captures the essence of this season. there is zero chance that silver allows his tv ratings to get slashed with a golden skin worriers 2nd round exit. wilt harden's season has been all for nothing and really the only solace we have in the end is that MFer tilman will be making less $
