The Shot vs. The Flop: Official Warriors vs. Rockets 2016 Playoff Thread

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Harden averages more FT's in pretty much every postseason you're right.

People see him missing shots he usually makes in one game and then claim his game doesn't work in the playoffs because they don't call fouls.

How is he right when:

i) he uses one game to prove his point about Harden averaging more FTAs in this series (than he did in the regular season) - I could use G1 when he had ZERO FTAs
ii) he's averaging less FTAs during this series, than he did during the regular season
iii) he's averaging more FTAs doesn't automatically mean he's getting more shooting fouls called in his favor either
iv) he averages 7.6 FTAs during his regular season career and averages 7.2 FTAs during his postseason career - he averages more during the regular season
v) he gets less shooting fouls calls in the postseason because officials allow more defensive contact in the paint

Didn't get a chance to see game but surprised that Rockets pulled thru. I know they had lead but no lead is safe with Warriors.

How did the Rockets win? I see they almost choked game away.

They went cold in the last few minutes, Warriors went from down 8 to up 1 with under a minute on Ian Clark's floater, of all people. Klay was awful and embarrassed himself trying to hit 35-footers like Steph, clanked em all. Tacklemond tackled Beasley after a rebound, free throws put Rockets back up one. Livingston had a great look at a leaner from 10 feet but he tried the offensive flop and jerked his body for no reason, didnt get the call. Houston came down and threw a lazy pass that Iggy almost stole but went out. Then Houston wasted their last timeout trying to inbound the ball and still couldnt, Ariza threw it away right to GS and they laid it in with 10 seconds to go. No timeouts, Harden gets the ball and comes down, spins, little pushoff to create space which Iggy tries to sell by flying backwards, Harden hits the 13-footer to go back up one with 2.some seconds left. GS calls time and Kerr draws up a play for Klay to inbound to Draymond 40 feet from the basket. He immediately takes one dribble right off his foot and out of bounds. 1 second left and Ariza tries his best to throw it away again but the Rockets grab it and time expires as Draymond decides to hit the Full Nelson Slam on Beasley at center court

[Cole Cash]

breh, did that look like houstons A-game to you ? when they are their best they are better than that, but they dont have enough talent to be consistent.

It was certainley better than other times they have played us, im not really here to argue it, i felt they played us better and brought more intensity than in the previous losses, thats all.
