Jimmy has zero confidence in his 3 point shot right now. Drop back and let him fire away.Β

Steph is all about moving without the ball. Don’t lose him in the screen game.
Nobody off their bench worries me. That’s their offense right now.
There’s a reason they were in the play in.

Yep let Jimmy have all the jumpshots & 3s his little heart desires.
Stay locked in on Steph. He’ll get free some but you can live with that to some degree as long as you don’t just let him run wild…which honestly i dont think he has the stamina or strength to do for a whole series any longer.
Speed, athleticism & physicality are our advantages - gotta use them!

Don't fall for this. They were terrible without Jimmy Butler and became a top-5 team since his arrival.

Jimmy Butler is a difference maker.

The Rockets will have to make shots to win this series. It's that simple. Everything ok the defensive end is going to be what we expect. Shot-making will be the difference, whether those shots are free or three, they have to go in to win.

Let’s gooooooo!!!

I’m loving the disrespect they’re getting. You think that doesn’t give Ime exactly what he wants? This team will be a menace to Steph, Jimmy, Draymond and co, and will make enough shots to win.Β 

Rockets in 6.Β

Ball is moving. That's positive.Β 

The only iso was Jalen on Curry, which is acceptable if Jalen decides to eat him. He was too passive on the first one.

Golden State’s gonna start dropping some of those 3s. Have to build up a cushion while they’re cold…

When they start going, go ahead an extend the defense, for now, protect the lane and get on the boards.Β 

I like the defense. If someone not Steph Curry goes nuts, then you adjust.

Holy cow, did not see a 34 point first half from Houston being a thing.

Why, this team can’t shoot? Ime made the horrible decision to play a big lineup with 3 non shooters, and predictably Green is a no show.
