[Tommy Nobis 905]

I’d rather see our offense run through CP3 hands.

nene has been good in his couple of minutes thus far.

Yup. They need him and Manimal to take over the inside.

Hilarious how fucking late that whistle was. He hit the arm AND jumped under his landing spot. God these refs are fucking SLOPPY

No shit.

Harden's 2-9 and some of the misses were ass ugly.  Let Paul direct traffic for a while.

I don't know why they don't play him very much. Him and Capela PnR should be the primary offense, then iso Harden when we get some momentum and rhythm.

Shump gets in before Green? Jeez it's like coach want us to stay cold from 3. I guess hes out there to guard Durant...

[BigOrange1 6471]

cp3 will be back in soon while harden sits.  dantoni has run this same rotation for awhile now.  

[BigOrange1 6471]

see?

[Zavala 1384]

Flash Gordon, and then his horrible 3s WTF

[goatsaag 279]

Definitely weird seeing Shumpert get in so early and Nene over Faried when we started Faried at PF against the Warriors for a game in the regular season and used him as the primary defender on Durant in that game.

[Zavala 1384]

Here comes their momentum and rush. They won't get any moving screens called against them in this mode. Obvious one by Green in front of Curry.

Can't hit a 3 and only down six? Fuck I'll take it.

[BigOrange1 6471]

good thing they got harden out of there huh?

[NowThis 931]

ABC crew picked Houston to win game 1. Doomed .

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Our shooting woes carried over from the Utah series. This might get ugly

[Zavala 1384]

Lol I'm gonna go enjoy my day, the NBA is rigged and boring. Maybe I'll watch the knockout game. 

Peace!

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Gonna get run out of the gym today. And warriors are on short rest. Lol

[TexArcher 38067]

We're fucking dead if we don't start making some threes, since apparently we can't even attempt anything else.  

[NowThis 931]

Shumpert is the death blow to the team. Must dump his ass. 

[BigOrange1 6471]

yall need to relax.  

[goatsaag 279]

I'm curious to see if the Warriors are willing to give Bogut any minutes when Harden is in the game.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

yall need to relax.  

Battered fan syndrome

[goatsaag 279]

Capela has to leave Bogut at the 3 point line to stop the Durant dunk

[BigOrange1 6471]

cp3!

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Those 3-5 foot floaters used to be automatic with Harden. Now he misses so many 

[TexArcher 38067]

Finally!  Get going, Harden.

[NowThis 931]

Klay Thompson is the best shooter ever

[TexArcher 38067]

God damn, the Warriors are some bitches.  It's like 5 Tim Duncans out there every time there's a whistle on them.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Klay on Nene is a bit of a mismatch. Need to quit switching everything

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Get your head out of your ass Harden

[BigOrange1 6471]

fuck off draymond

[TexArcher 38067]

I've never seen a team get away with so much and bitch about what they don't get away with at the same time.  It's amazing.

Huh, I thought the whinners disrespected the refs and league enough this year to not have the officials on their side for this. Oh well. Cool beans. They gonna jump under Harden shooting a 3 and injure him without getting a foul. 

Same like they did with Kawaii. 

Pottery

[goatsaag 279]

already some insanely late whistles on very obvious foul calls

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Damn they’re giving Green slack. He should have been T’d up again

[Dutchrudder 11151]

There it is

[goatsaag 279]

klay did it again

[BigOrange1 6471]

they clearly aren't going to call a foul on klay on these 3's.

[TexArcher 38067]

I won't accuse them of trying to hurt James, but they're certainly putting him in positions where it could happen.

[NowThis 931]

ugly game . Tucker and Gordon are killing Houston's chance.

Faried must be hurt. 

[Tommy Nobis 905]

I won't accuse them of trying to hurt James, but they're certainly putting him in positions where it could happen.

At some point we need to think about putting a bench player in to get a couple hard fouls on one of their superstars

I mean, I wouldn't be upset if Nene fouled the shit out of Curry, KD, or Klay and told them why it happened.

[BigOrange1 6471]

can let these last 2 minutes get away from you here.

[mycox 582]

Harden just needs to shoot the damn ball instead of try to draw the foul from the 3 point line.

He is shooting the ball and getting fouled.

[NowThis 931]

harden dumbass we have a 24 second clock 

[BigOrange1 6471]

CHRIS PAUL

[BigOrange1 6471]

TIE GAME

[TexArcher 38067]

There you go, CP3!

He needs more shots in the second half.

And Eric Gordon!!

Let's fucking go!!!

GS turnovers - are they sloppy or has Houston become the 1996 Bulls? 

[Tommy Nobis 905]

We had a foul to give yet we wait to use it on a shot attempt. Fucking dumb

[BigOrange1 6471]

all things considered, rockets are in a very good spot.
