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

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

No, they don't. That's another bs excuse.

A lot of fans are saying they are the "GOAT" team. They were close to winning without Iggy. They lost because of lack of game plan.

Dumb. GSW is one of the greatest offense of all time. Call the timeout. You see what type of shot they got off the Steph desperation shot. Houston is a good defense but GSW has Kevin Durant and with a planned play can basically get any type of good shot they prefer. At the end of the play they were asking for timeout anyway. I was happy when they didn’t call the timeout. I rather face GSW on one play uncoordinated and undecided versus them playing with a set play. Houston is a tough defense but not a smothering defense. I almost guarantee they would’ve found a good shot out the timeout like they did with .05 on th clock. Just bad game management there at the end by Kerr

Imo kerr wanted these guys to lose. They cocky like that. Probably feels a longer series keeps them more alert

@DonKnock, get in here an celebrate this win.

It's still fu*k your team tho...

Dubs in 6

This series is over. Losing at Oracle, combined with Draymond getting yammed on kind of sealed the Warriors fate.

This Rockets team ain't beating Bron though so Hardens MVP might be all for naught.

 

[VegetasHairline]

Y'all definitely don't have this same energy when the Warriors win.

 

[MostReal]

Double, trap, anything to take the ball out of his hands.

35 from Curry >>>>>> 35 from anybody else in the league, especially at Oracle. It's just a wave of energy when he gets going.

Been saying this

Steph Curry is so much more impactful than Kevin Durant

Warriors better realize that this is Curry team before they end up losing this series.

KD need to get back in the post again too

 

[Xerces]

What is amazing to me, is the refs. How they can game after game throughout the regular season and playoffs, see Harden even before he releases start to contort his body and still have the audacity to give him a penalty. The fact that he has been to the line as much as he has should also be a red flag as well.

 

[Spence]

Imma need that home court advantage back there plaiboi

There is nothing to celebrate.. rockets still need to win the series.

if you tell me iggy is going to miss the rest of the series and kerr is only gonna play 7 games like he's MD than i might listen to that.

Listen, once iggy comes back it's back to business as usual. Good gutty win for houston (best win in cp0 and james career) but durant is probably gonna score 45 in game 4 and steph is going to make 8 three's and blow them off the floor. Warriors only try once they lose or are doubted.

 

[Rich Spirit]

Rockets still haven’t lost 2 games in a row since January

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

In all seriousness, are folks actually enjoying this series (narratives/storylines aside)? Because the product on the court has been trash.

 

[Mantis Toboggan M.D.]

It's quite obvious. He thinks Kerr isnt that good of a coach. It ain't that hard.

I think he is a good coach. His Xs and Os are sometimes meh but since Mike Brown came, that defense is elite to an extreme degree

They were the best defense in the league in 2014-15 and top 5 in defense for 2015-16 without brown

Entire playoffs has been trash
