Sittin' Sidewayz Dem Boys In The Bay: Official Warriors vs. Rockets Western Conference Finals Thread

[Reece]

How the hell do people actually enjoy the way that the Houston Rockets play basketball?

I think they play good basketball. It's reminiscent of the physical teams before GS rose to power. The only eye sore is Harden with his constant flopping and trying to draw fouls. CP3, Ariza, Gordon, Green and Capella be balling.

It'll be interesting to see if Eric Gordon gets some help tonight by the rockets role players

Translation: we don't want to get our ass beat for the 3rd time

Who is we?

I'm not a "stan" of any team or player remaining, but I'm confident Cavs/Rockets will be more competitive than Cavs/Warriors and it's a matchup that we've never seen before, not having already happened 3 years in a row

Houston plays pretty entertaining b-ball when CP3 isn’t in. It’s not that successful after a while due to the shortened rotation but seeing clearly inferior talent be made to elite offensive contributors is always interesting. If D’Antoni could shed Ryan Anderson for a few more pieces plus Ryno and Luc were healthy, Houston would be able to go like 9 or 10 deep. Mike wouldn’t do that but they could.

Why don't the Warriors really run Curry and Durant on pick and roll action together? I feel like I barely see it. I thought they were saving it last year for the finals, but they weren't.

Cuz Steve Kerr wants everyone to touch the ball on offense. It drives me crazy sometimes. Sometimes it really is as simple as riding the hot hand.

Warriors will win with advantage from the refs...nba really wants Bron to beat Warriors

Everyone knows Foster is a dirt bag, why do you think the league took him off of game 7 for the thunder and warriors back in 2016

 

[OnFleekTing]

Warriors will hold the L tonight with or without CP3
They absolutely can't win in houston to save their playoff lives currently

 

[Conscious Pilot]

Imma need KD to play up to his potential and step us with his back against the wall tonight
