    Hey bro. I will be the first to come back here and say you were right. I have no problem with that. But everything this team is and have shown this year says they will be made to wear a dress on the court and make the warriors dinner before speaking into their pink microphone at the buzzer.

    Truly heroic optimism, don grahamleone. Sadly, it's more likely GS extends the series to give Curry more time to heal, than our heroes suddenly rising up in epic fashion and taking this to 7 games. This team has brutally beaten the optimism out of me.

    I don't think extending the series delays the start of the next round.

    This one is definitive while the other one is optimistic.

    No? Then we are well and truly doomed. It pains me to say it, but 7 games? Yeah, right.

    The only scenario that has the rockets winning this series is if the warriors throw the next two games to give Curry time to heal thinking that they could wipe the court with us in a game 7. You let it get down to one game and anything can happen. Letting this series go 7 just about gives you two weeks to the start of round 2. hmmmm. interesting. Of course if round 2's start is set in stone then the above is out the window.

    Don! You're in the front of a very short line but I'm falling in behind you. I'll never give up until the clock runs out. Bring on game 5, there's some history to be made.

    All that is needed is for Bickerstaff and the team to have an epiphany.

    We need to win by a lot. The only way they beat us is with confidence. We need to take that away from them

    Clutch has spoken and he knows more than all of us. He sees the players everyday he knows what goes on in the lockerroom

    The possibility of us winning the series just went from 1% to 10%.

    This team will get blown out of the NBA playoffs in glorious fashion. I thought Harden lying down would be enough to crush this team, but one more unrobing will be fit.

    There will be no magical road win like Game 6 at LA last year. This is going to get ugly, and once it is done sans Curry...

    Harden will be forced to accept what everyone already knows: this team will never win until he decides to truly lead in every aspect of the game, on and off the court.

    Morey will be forced to realize he has to build a team, not a patchwork of guys with good numbers - basketball is not baseball. You don't need guys in baseball to play together, you just need them to execute their role. Chemistry actually means something in basketball.

    And Les will be forced to realize he really doesn't know jack about basketball and maybe he should do what he is actually valuable in doing - signing checks and not trying to alienate coaches and players.

    Maybe Les can expand his hobby, inherit another championship franchise in Football, Baseball, NHL or Soccer

    Golden state could try to hand us the game and we'd still find a way to lose.

    Never underestimate this pile of dogcrap excuse of a team.
