    You know Media was ready to bury the Rockets if Portland played even close to a West conference championship team.. Thanks Dame.

    Media won’t admit they’re wrong about moreyball and the rockets style of play and how it’s the most effective against the warriors but they know they’re wrong.

    “Boring”
    “Too many isos”
    “Cheating the system”

    Blah blah blah.

    How’s all that ball movement and mid range working out?

    Somebody needs to take Curry out, his showboating is unacceptable

    Thats factually incorrect, literally ALL of those games were close, all of them. They blew out the Clippers on their home floor three times, they never took them seriously at any point. We got their full attention and they could never blow us out.

    IF PAT RILEY DIDNT SUCK BALLS WE WIN THIS SEIRES.

    The point differential tells a different story.

    We are the only team to beat them when Draymond has a triple double.

    No one wants to help the Rockets but they are all willing to roll out the red carpet so that the Warriors can get back to the finals 5 yrs in a row.

    I can't wait to hear Charles lambaste the Blazers.

    He picked them going to the finals even before Durant got hurt so I imagine he must be really disappointed that this team can't beat the Warriors without Durant...

    I think 7seed spurs and 8 seed clippers can defeat blazers.

    Surprised warriors rested bogut by not starting him.

    Both benches scored 33 points. That makes rockets bench look weak!

    Everyone went in on the Rockets. Former and current players talking about Morey and reveling in the demise of a Rockets team that pushed the GSW more than any other team in the last 4-5 seasons. Now, a team that plays the "right way", getting their asses handed to them..

    Damian Lillard is a playoff choker.

    I'm scared to see who the Warriors might grab in the off-season from a trade, FA signing, or draft.

    Even if they lose Durant, they could grab another decent scorer who may also be a good defender and 3 pointer.

    Warriors deserve more credit from our fan base and the Rockets deserves more respect from almost all other fan bases

    It appears Green isn't declining yet. He can do it ALL except shoot 3's.

    Forget 3's if you can do EVERYTHING else.
