Sad thing is you're right and it shouldn't happen. We are a better team than the Bucks and OKC is not as good as Miami. We should win at least 1 game. OH and I forgot about curry's kryptonite. His ankles.
yes most likely...but rockets have a chance to win 1 game at home, tell that harden to call his buddies in okc to let him have a game
just because the warriors are playing well against Denver doesn't mean that we would have played well against them. For all I know we would've been blown out too.
Warriors is just shooting well and not turning the ball over for the Nuggets to get out in transition.
pretty much. If the Warriors miss shots it will play right into the hands of what the Nuggets want to do. If they can remain hot like this, sure they'll be fine...but you often do die by the three when the playoffs roll around.
I don't know about blown out. We would've lost the series for sure though. I mean we lost to the Suns and the Lakers in must win games. But we could've taken 1-2 games from this Nuggets team and been more competitive.
it's also because the nuggets don't take jump shots - most of all their points come on drives into the paint.
True but the series being more competitive seems like a given. Okc is the best team in the west. We likely would have lost against Denver, Memphis, Clippers too. San Antonio would have been the best matchup for us.
You mean to finish 7th and face San Antonio, right? Because the Rockets finished two games back of the Warriors.
Yeah. Facing the Spurs who are injury riddled and old would be better than facing a fully healthy OKC. We would have used our youth to wear them out.
Im glad to see the warriors playing this series competitively. Have felt for awhile that the rockets and the warriors were the most interesting teams in the NBA right now, would be amazing to see one of them make it through round 1. It does suck to see that they were able to take care of business and get the 6th seed and a winnable matchup when we choked our way to a probable sweep though =(
