Lolol.  Books had a good night.

I wonder what the line is for Game 5.

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

Durant's wide open 3 at the end came off a Green illegal screen. It's ridiculous.

More like the entire 2 and 3 quarters, and the final 5 seconds.

Damn, if Rivers had been healthy in game 1, the Rockets are most likely up 3-1.

And Durant set a moving screen on Curry’s right afterward. I just saw that replay after getting home from the game.

That one wasn't, but KD blocking for Curry on the second 3 was: https://streamable.com/6yrtf

[Planet Houston 4930]

They both were 

[HoustonFrog 368]

Lolz Harden would have either blocked Curry’s 3 or significantly impacted it

Lol both illegal screens. They can get away with murder but especially in "comeback mode" at the end of games.

I wouldn't be surprised if they called a foul on Rockets trying to fight though a moving screen

[HtownHorn 14783]

Green pushes Rivers into to Tucker and when that didn't work, he's moving backwards into Tucker forcing him to move further away from Durant.

And Tucker goes around him, avoiding the contact, which means they can't call an illegal screen. Draymond never stops moving to actually set a screen either, he immediately goes to the rim once the shot is up, because he's not entangled. Little contact like that would not be called in the last 10 seconds of a game.

KD clearly cuts off a defender going to the shooter. That could have been called, but unlikely given the situation.

Wait Green didn't contact Tucker. You are blind.

[Rockethorn1978 6104]

This series has been so close I don't think anyone has any clear idea of what will happen, easiest way to lean would be GS having 2 more home games to Houston having 1. 

Just gotta hope Harden has 1 out of his mind game Wednesday because I like our chances if we come back up 3-2.

[Dutchrudder 11152]

They didn't bump chests or have significant contact. Their arms touch as Tucker tries to avoid him, but Tucker doesn't even lose his balance. You will never get that called at any point in a game because moving screens only get called when the impacted player winds up on his ass or faceplants, which is why players are so animated when trying to draw fouls. PJ came to play not to flop, so he just kept moving right along. Cp3 probably would have been in the front row if that happened to him, but whatever.

I feel pretty good about tonight.

I saw nothing in game 1 or 2 that told me we can't win one in Oracle.  

Come on, fellas.  Hit shots and play D.

Was definitely a foul, but they would have never called it on the other end of the court. 

[Tommy Nobis 905]

KD was still moving. Fuck the refs already

[Slacks 6862]

And he flopped. EG barely touched him...

Should have been a no call or a block.

[TexArcher 38075]

And that's not a foul.  Mkay.

[BigOrange1 6471]

gordon needs to start hitting 3's again. 

[elfenix 34333]

i have no idea what the fuck that call was

[elfenix 34333]

harden was just hit in the face by klay

[BigOrange1 6471]

[TexArcher 38075]

Thompson got out of his funk from the last few games. We're fucked

caepla has been dog shit.

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Capela back to completely useless.  Can’t make a layup, can’t get a rebound.  Why is he out there.

[Chuckie Finster 22744]

Legitimately think we would be better with 4 players on the court than with Capela.
