Roland17:
Overrated ke? Come off it bro. But I will say this, I don’t buy Kerr’s excuse that the team was not ready as it seems to under value the effor by the Rockets. Truth is, the Rockets were better on the night and played lights out. He should be giving Rockets their deserved credit and stop being petty.

I'm entitled to my own opinion.
Do you really think they would be champions last year if CP played game 7?
It still took the rockets missing consecutive shots in game 7 for Warriors to win.

Personally I believe they are overrated.

Eruditor:
Just leave that dense guy. I told you he only appears when Warriors lose. LOL.

And that bothers you?

Stupid

Houston keep beating the Warriors. Teams like Rockets, OKC ....are among few teams that can upset the Warriors in playoff cos they ain't scared of them unlike Mr LeBron.

In as much as I like Steph and the Warriors, I still believe they are overrated.

All these talk of best team ever by the media is just a way to justify Lebron's failure imo.

ipledge10:
why they won’t win championships. Warriors won championship before KD. If Green wasn’t too stoopid, They would have won the second championship without KD.

A blessing.

Not winning that second championship pre KD, made them got KD and won next 2.

Klay isn't consistent enough to be a second star on a championship team especially beside player like Steph.
Warriors would want KD before Klay imo.

Roland17:
Where is KD in all of these permutations?

In Clippers with Kawhi.

Lol..

The only place I see AD going is the Lakers.

Let's have

AD + Bron in LAL
Westbrook + PG in OKC
KD + Kawhi in LAC
Curry + Klay in Warriors
Lillard + MCcollum in Portland
Harden + CP in Houstons

Suddenly it gets interesting again.

Djokovic will surpass both Federer and Nadal total grandslams.

Boogie had a good game imo.
Warriors vs Rockets finals again hopefully

rotimi9:
he made only one 3 and still put up 38pts. every player has bad nights Don't compare stuff like dis

Like Curry never had bad games this season.

SmooshCHN:
Just like every other year. Bring it on. Warriors in 4 oh we have a bad bench. Warriors in 5.

I don't see you sweeping your through to the finals this year.

Rockets exposed the warriors last playoff and teams now following similar blueprint.

Trust me, no easy game come playoff

Warriors lost again to a top team.

Just bring on the playoff. Warriors are either not interested in these regular season or are really bad.

Lost to Rocket (2ce), Milwaukee, Toronto (2ce), Denver, Lakers, OKC, etc

Hmmmm

Harden is one hell of a player. I don't understand why people still talk about his poor playoff performances when he nearly beat a Warriors team with KD, Curry and Klay.

He's a top 5 player in the league.

Swap him with Curry and tell me he wouldn't have 2 rings at least.

A40:
No chance in hell I'm giving both Klay and Dray max. They are both good but keeping KD is an absolute must. Maybe letting one of Klay or Dray go would at least allow them get a competent bench. Not sure any one in the league right now would care that Golden State does not have a bench anyway

Trade Draymond. Dude not fit to be called an all-star.

Merry Xmas guys.
Another big game loss for the warriors.
Losing games against the top teams. Hmmmmmm

KD is the best mehn.

Can do it all offensively. The Lebron media stan anxiously waiting for his free agency to come.

I'm beginning to think the Raptors might beat the Celtics in the eastern conference.

A40:
Draft smartly, get a sharp GM

True.

A40:
Kevin Durant

49 PTS
9 ASTS
6 REBS
2 BLKS
2 STLS

Always a beast.

Still can't believe one team has Curry, Klay, KD and Cousin.

aliondo:
There is no doubt if Curry comes back,GSW will get back to winning ways. He is the most valuable player in the team though some people will still argue..

Lol......

A40:
This season should give a clearer picture. Though I believe teams would legit go out and throw their best at Golden State just because it's Golden State. I still don't know if he would be able to cope without his main guys for a sizeable period of time. He's not really had to deal with adversity or coaching sides with declining and flat out old and past their prime players like Pop was doing with Ginobili, Duncan etc. Also his adjustments in the heat of the playoffs always makes me look at him with side eye

I wouldn't say he is overrated as much as I wouldn't say a Bill Walsh is overrated because forging out a style everyone wants to copy is not easy but if you believe he is overrated based on what he's had to work with so far, it's perfectly understandable

Remember overrated does not mean bad, it simply means not as good as advertised

Eruditor will still say he isn't. Every man to his own opinion though.
Kerr isn't as good as advertised imo.
Yes, he changed the style of play when he got there and was blessed with players that fits perfectly.
However, dude is yet to do any special thing apart from that and always get away with criticism.

A40:
Depends on how you look at it. He formed the identity of the present day Warriors but you could argue the talent was already there. Personally I don't think he is but I wouldn't put him up there with say a Greg Pop or Phil Jackson.

What I would like to see is how he fares when faced with adversity over an extended period. I think this is where I can understand if you think he is overrated since he has not faced such test thus far.

Well said. Another loss though

Eruditor:
In case anyone was wondering, this will be KDs life in NY for example. Score a lot of points and lose. We suck.

And you think he won't have players around him?
Or better coach?

Why is Kerr not bn criticized like other coaches like D Antoni?

Kerr is overrated.
Warriors should not be struggling this much losing just one of your infinity stone. It happens way too often.

A40:
After 4 or 5 rings you get the feeling a guy like Draymond would want to secure the bag plus would the Warriors be willing to pay Draymond such a contract till he is 35 is another question

Is Kerr not overrated?

A40:
The next two summers would be very interesting. Klay Thompson is due an extension and word on the street is he won't be giving any discounts

Draymond is due in 2020 and would be eligible for a super-max if he makes the All NBA team or wins DPOY. Though based on his play so far it doesn't look like he's a threat to crack either list, still he's always said he took less so they could get KD on board.

After 4 or 5 rings you get the feeling a guy like Draymond would want to secure the bag plus would the Warriors be willing to pay Draymond such a contract till he is 35 is another question

Warriors would be stupid to give him max.
Guy has average offense.
Draymond is a $10m a year player at best if not for the money craze in d leaugue now.

A40:
You watch these games and wonder at times if Draymond Green and Klay Thompson are all-stars

They aren't, especially Draymond.

Draymond is overrated. He thinks he's an all-star for real.
They better not lose KD cos they will not be relevant anymore excelt they get an AD, Kawhi to replace KD

Hardetayour:
It's like these guys have planned to stop shooting these season apart from Steph.

Klay stinking up the joint on open shots.

Lol

Roland17:
The Rockets should take this W with a pinch of salt in terms of possible championship matchup against the Warriors.

We all know Warriors play better during playoff. However, they aren't invincible and can be taken down by more teams now.
KD and Curry are the only reliable scorer.
Klay is streaky. He isn't consistent.

@Eruditor

After winning 3 championships you think KD's free agency would be only about winning?

Philly still not beating Boston. No team in the east will beat celtic in a playoff series.

A40:
The Bucks are a boogie team for the Warriors for some weird reason they always match up well against them

They play better defense against the warriors than most teams.

Bucks raping the warriors. Playing good D and scoring easily.

Teams give their best against the Warriors and turn shit afterwards.
