ipledge10:
I see Rocket winning this game...

Doubt it strongly right now.

Roland17:
Gordon is stifling Curry with exceptional defense.

Houston need him on the other end more actually.

Loool Harden is just DeRozan with beards. Tuehh

raumdeuter:
Actually tied after that horrendous display

It's Draymond so I wasn't sure he would hit the second free throw

birdman:
So we back to 0 0. Na wa o

Absolutely shyte performance from CP3 and Harden from the 3pt line. In a pivotal game like this can't be shooting so poorly! You just can't

Call KD what you want but he's kept Golden State afloat all series long

That the Warriors are only down by 1 is a miracle

raumdeuter:
This Capella can block destiny

Fammm

The two offenses are poor or have been poor tonight. Rockets should really be up by 20

Capella really wrecking Golden State

Earlier in the week...

And this day 5 years ago

raumdeuter:
Bayern sells Douglas Costa for 46M to Juventus

Vidal charged to court for assault. He was involved in a night club fight. This guy just wan reduce his transfer fee

That's a lot of gwap for a player with limited end product! I can get jiggy with it.

I heard the board won't drive him away and neither would we extend so most likely he runs down his deal and leaves on a free

Manutd19:
I've always maintained this point. Warriors are overrated imo and teams are not playing them tough enough on a consistent basis. I know it's hard but they ain't all that.
If LeBron fails to beat them, they are the best team ever (all excuses to make him look....)

Personally if Houston wins the series then this should be the Final nail in the coffin for that GOAT talk for LeNomad. Because it could be argued that last year's Cleveland had more weapons than this year's Houston Rockets

The other angle to be considered is the fact that the Warriors might also be a tad fatigued (mentally and physically) and perhaps Houston are just at the right place at the right time. All that would be immaterial if the Warriors win tonight but my gut feeling tells me Houston will win Game 5.

Roland17:
I agree with this because it would hurt more to lose this series in game 7 at home. I hope Brad starts this same line up with Baynes starting. I like how we closed out the perimeter and cuts and we have to do the same away from home. We also have to find a way to keep Rozier away from being switched to Bron. This is a huge learning experience for the entire roster.

I would be personally pained on y'all behalf. Closing out a veteran road team is very difficult! They would be even more poised and less emotional

Baynes has to be ready to go hard in the paint. Keeping LeNomad out of the paint or at least limiting his efficiency in that sweet spot is the first step to stealing the win in Cleveland

Lue really blaming this L on the absence of Ojeleye? Lmaooooo! Being sarcastic btw

Roland17:
We have not managed to continue winning performances and attitude away from home. The Cavs have their backs against the wall and I doubt the Cavs would want to lose at home. This is a young team and the away troubles are not surprising.

This Boston team has not made excuses all season. Game 6 will not be a good place to start! They can win Game 6 and if you ask me they must pull all the stops to win Game 6.

They might have homecourt in Game 7 but this only guarantees them a wider berth not a win per se especially against the Cavs as an even better Golden State painfully discovered

The pressure on them going to this game is nil and they have to use this to their advantage.

BarthramLestat:
Maybe time to give Hood the benefit of the doubt because he can't be any worse than JR.

I'd give Osman a shot FFS. Nothing worse than an unproductive veteran eating minutes a younger unpredictable player could use

It was extremely important for Boston to win tonight. Now they can go the Q full of confidence knowing all the pressure is on the Cavs to try and survive by winning Game 6. It's no guarantee they win but their margin for error is much wider than it would have been had they lost tonight..

Roland17:
I don't know another coach that would this patient with Rozier and that is why I worry about him leaving the Celtics. He deserves to get paid, which I hope he does.

Who would you keep between Smart and Rozier?

airmark:
Ogbomosho. At least Italy hasn't rejected him, unlike the Morata you were painting in tex cote, to look greater than he's.

Can we organize a rally against his exclusion from the world cup?

Maybe we should hold a rally because unlike Belotti he actually helped Spain get to Russia

Roland17:
4-0 Caps. I got Ovy, he deserves it. Holtby has to be better with letting the puck rebound from saves. He was lucky the lightening did not capitalize on his numerous voice offs.

Lol I don't care for Ovechkin or the Capitals! I like the Cinderella story that is the Golden Knights and I hope they win it all

donlittle25:
my guy dem don dey mount come back o

The best case scenario. Lebron and Love can now try and take it from here. Though I'd leave them out for a little longer!

Smart move by Lue. No point wasting precious energy trying to mount a comeback with Love and James only to fall short. Let the other Cavs suffer the indignity of getting embarrassed by the younger Celtics

Chai! Anywhere Cavs see this Tatum dem no go forget am oh! What a ballplayer

birdman:
Is he as good as he looks, or is this the brad effect in force.

Naah. This isn't the Brad effect! Not offensively at least cos he plays like an OG!! The handles and stroke is inbuilt. I see some Paul Pierce with a little bit of Grant Hill in his game but he is already waaay better than they were at his age. Hell throw in some KD as well

Two things he can work on is his aggression! And the second thing which Kobe pointed out.. His footwork

If he fixes those two things!! Forget it

Jayson Tatum the REAL TRUTH

Roland17:
You dey watch Ovy and the Caps? Ovy wants that final so bad and with Backstrom healthy and playing more minutes they look really good. It is still a long way though, I expecct the Lightening to strike back.

1-0 Caps

2-0 Caps. Issa Golden Knights vs Caps Finals and I'd be rooting for the team with Marc Andre Fleury in goal

Execution not emotions would win you this game Boston. Stay cool

BarthramLestat:
Did the mavericks beat the heat because they were better than them? Sometimes when an important role player let alone a superstar doesn't play up to standards it has an effect on the outcome of a series.

Depends on how you spin it. They beat the defending champ Lakers and a young OKC team and in the Finals they clearly wanted it more.

It's possible the Heat underestimated their opponent. It is also possible the Mavericks executed better to make up for the talent shortfall. That's why these games are played!

Jayson Tatum is not here for games

BarthramLestat:
If the friggin phoenix suns/knicks took your man to six games what's so inconceivable about the rockets who hold the regular season record for highest offensive rating recorded to potentially take the warriors to six which is probably as far as it will go unless the notorious choker chokes again

So why were the crowd especially the pro-LeNomad ones suggesting the GOAT's Bulls wouldn't give these Warriors hell?

It's not about what is or isn't conceivable! It's about the fact that till the game is played no one should assume zilch!

Should the Warriors lose it would be because the Rockets were the better outfit and not this faux choking narrative hot take merchants are all about

Stop settling Jayson!!
