This is not how you play when you're trying to win Game 7 on the road. Somehow I can see Golden State catching this L if they don't turn keep it to 8 or less before halftime. This is abysmal by the donkey on both ends

as in ehn, but he is picking it up sha.

he has been turning the ball over the most all through this series

i don't like it when players make mistakes then start shouting at others, such hypocrisy
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 2:54am On May 29, 2018
This Warriors team look very vulnerable on both ends.

HOlding foul gimme a break
Re: The NBA Begins by EnigmaticEnigma(m): 2:55am On May 29, 2018

Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 2:56am On May 29, 2018
The Rockets continue to punish the Warriors on transition which is different, especially if you consider they are an ISO team. They have caught the Warriors unawares by pushing the pace of the game for quick transition buckets. The rotation with Bell, has also left the Warriors offense stagnant even though it is a smaller lineup.

Your first paragraph is the only thing I don’t like at all as this is the first time all series we are letting them.

As for their long 3s. I am not worried at all. This is a marathon not a sprint.
they letting Tucker of all people making rebound in warriors paint. No matter what, they need cut the leads to maximum 10 before 3rd
Re: The NBA Begins by Eruditor: 2:57am On May 29, 2018
48-33 Rockets lead.

Another set of free throws missed by Klay.

Lost rebound for the Harden dunk. We are definitely out of our funk.

Anyways. Warriors ball.
Re: The NBA Begins by Hardetayour: 2:58am On May 29, 2018
The rebounds are too much. KD allowing Tucker collect that rebound.

KD is flustered. I don't know what's causing that. KD and Klay missing FTs. Something is wrong.
Re: The NBA Begins by EnigmaticEnigma(m): 2:58am On May 29, 2018
we need javele for his rebounding, how can tucker get rebounds over durant??/

i don't care if he gets beat of the dribble, there will be help
Re: The NBA Begins by Manutd19: 2:59am On May 29, 2018
Warriors will not win this game.
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 3:01am On May 29, 2018
Some very questionable calls here. I guess the last person to complain is James Harden.
Re: The NBA Begins by EnigmaticEnigma(m): 3:01am On May 29, 2018
see why we need javele
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 3:04am On May 29, 2018
Steph don suffer. D'Antoni had the audacity to put Ryan goddamn Anderson on him
Re: The NBA Begins by Hardetayour: 3:05am On May 29, 2018
Look at that defence. With a foul to give o. Bleeping idiots
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 3:05am On May 29, 2018
Transition buckets are hurting the Warriors as they are struggling to keep pace with the Rockets.

It is a game of 2 halves and adjustments. I expect the Warriors to come out swinging in the 3rd.

Maybe Warriors deserve to lose, you have three seconds time difference, go for plus one. See Gordon

I’m off to Monday night Raw.

They missed FTs it can get to the mind. The lack of rebounding is simply lack of effort. They cleaned it up in the last possessions but it is what it is.

This guy called Kevin Durant sha.

Well, it is game of 2 halves and for how bad we were I can take an 11pt deficit.

The way rockets have scored this game is in ways we have prevented all series long. So the issue is mental and I think the missed FTs and fouls early in the game affected the funk.
Re: The NBA Begins by donlittle25: 3:08am On May 29, 2018
They can’t even box out grin

Harden is playing inefficiently and you are losing this bad?

Where is your faith? We were down 10 game 6 at the half.

It does not matter who you use if the effort is not there.

I am not panicked. We have played as badly as we ever could and we are not down by 25. I would take it.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 3:11am On May 29, 2018
Its a shootout in Vegas.

3-3. TJ Oshie, in particular, has been spectacular, he has absorbed a lot of hits by sitting in front of the Fluery and has been providing the assists for the Caps. This is the first time Fleury is conceding 3 goals before the end of the 2nd period.

He is not having the best game but we were all praising CP3 the other day even when he started games worse than KD has.

It is a game of 2halves. Usually when GSW play this way, I know we have lost. But for today, I am not worried at all.

I need effort. The rest will come.

Lets see how it goes. The 11 points difference is around where I want it. Rockets are hustling for ball, I see adjustments toward end of 2nd quarter.

Not gonna lie, we're simply playing like we don't want it. There's no excuse to that. Klay tried to start out aggressive but he came out too aggressive. It's the total opposite now especially on the interior defense. Don't get me started on KD and Draymond. I still can't remember the last time we played warriors basketball. The offense is a mess but the defense is a huge one.

I agree with everything.

But see the point, as bad as it has been, it is just 11. That is, 4 possessions. There are 2 more Qs to go to win this. This is a game 7 and the home team are showing spirit. We give them credit and that is where we leave it.

This is why I am worried.

Say you turn it up and win the game will the guys also zone out against Cavs?

Will rather hungry guys get the go

They out hustled us. They are home. They are fighting. They were going to fight. I am disappointed at our effort but I am focusing on the positives.

We are down 11.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 3:15am On May 29, 2018
Please, no one should single Kevin Durant in this mess. The entire Warriors have been poor. In fact, I dare say the only reason there is a game 7 is because of Kevin Durant.

The Warriors still have a chance to win this game. They have had poor 1st half showings in this series.

Too often he goes misses in tight playoff series.

Formerly I thought it was just Russell not running the point well and being selfish but maybe just maybe that’s just KD.

I refuse to believe that anyways and hope I am just being over the top. Hope he shows up in the other half. If not his offense, his defense
