I hope they have enough in the tank for Monday night. 

Warriors are getting absolutely nothing from their bench, 7 points and 8 fouls.

They would have if they let Iggy come off of the bench. Hope we see a repeat performance from their bench.

the longer this series goes, the more it favors the rockets.  the warriors starters can not average 40 mpg over 7 games and win the series...i think.

I hope you're right. EG and Harden played 45 and CP3 played 43 tonight.

[Slacks 6,791]

jj redick cant do that.

No he cannot.

[HtownHorn 14,446]

Warriors lost their 1st playoff game when Green gets a triple double, and Durant nearly hit 50. Rockets need 3 more games where they blow the Warriors off the glass, as I don't think there is any way Green and Iguodala can continue scoring 28-35 points a game.

[BigOrange1 6,416]

win game 4 and the winner of game 5 likely takes the series.  lose game 4 and golden state obviously closes in 5.

Those jerseys/ logo is one of the best in the nba

[Rockethorn1978 6,061]

Mad Max is the best! Fuck the Jizz no matter what indeed LOL.

[Scraps 13,531]

Not sure who it was, but fuck you to whoever posted the fingernail photo that keeps showing up on my tapa.

[TexArcher 37,455]

Mad Max is so awesome.

I fucking hate that they ever went away from those jerseys. That dildo shark jersey that came next was such an abortion, it's not even funny. Should wear the one that brung ya (to the finals)!

OK, so I'm not typically the guy that notices this kind of thing, but what's the story on the lower case "et" in "ROCKetS?" I would guess it's to fit the whole thing on the jersey but I'd like to hear the discussion. Not hating at all, just curious...

That goes back so far that I'm not sure anyone can explain it-- you're talking 1972-73 IIRC. It's just a stylistic choice, though, it doesn't have any significance as far as I know.

CLUTCH CITY

Let's fucking go

[BigOrange1 6,416]

weird start.

[BigOrange1 6,416]

PJ TUCKER

[TexArcher 37,455]

They've got to quit telegraphing that pass to the corner three off the drive.  Several turnovers on that this series.  Just take it to the rim.

[elfenix 34,168]

here come the officials

[TexArcher 37,455]

OMFG how is that their ball?

[elfenix 34,168]

that clearly went off of thompson, and that's apparent from this blurry as shit TNT stream

[BigOrange1 6,416]

eric gordon is a bad motherfucker.

the same way it wasn't a foul, shitty ass refs

[elfenix 34,168]

fuck off klay

[elfenix 34,168]

replay didn't show it, had tucker come back in when he touched the ball?

Sure looked like it.

[CurlyDumps 4,439]

Shame Durant has turned into such an unlikeable whiny little bitch.

[hookem48 4,631]

when you're coached to stick your feet under a shooter it's just hard not to do it

[TexArcher 37,455]

Fucking hate when they wait until the shot misses to blow the whistle.  A foul is a foul.

[BigOrange1 6,416]

BOOM MOTHERFUCKER!

[goatsaag 279]

Klay has no idea how to contest a stepback other than just hoping the refs don't call the foul

[CurlyDumps 4,439]

First time in 6 years warriors have been called for an illegal screen, a unicorn might as well prance across the court next.

As a defender if you didn't stay right with the shooter as he is stepping back, once the shooter jumps there is no way to defend it without fouling.

[TexArcher 37,455]

Go sit down, Klay.  

[BigOrange1 6,416]

fuck off klay

[elfenix 34,168]

sit your ass down, klay

[BigOrange1 6,416]

orgasmic.

[LTtxfan 48,928]

Strong Start for Harden.  Curry with good 1st a qtr, but now in foul trouble with 2.  So far KD kinda quiet.  Klay can't find his shot and foul trouble with 3 fouls.

PJ has been active.... 🤘 

If Rockets can slow the Warriors bench, may go back to San Fran at 2-2.

did shumpert even touch him?

Maybe touched his elbow as Draymond threw it toward his face.

*Oakland. A perfect place for this team. Unfortunately they're to relocate to San Fran next season.

I mean, Looney hasn't fouled Harden on one yet. Klay may have fouled on every single one he's defended (only got called for that one though).

[TexArcher 37,455]

Iguodala channeling his inner Karl Malone on that flop.

[elfenix 34,168]

fuck

[BigOrange1 6,416]

damn, that last 3 hurts.

[Johnny Sack 8,397]

Am I the only one who wanted Gordon to miss that last free throw?
