Rockets doing the same thing Boston did in the second yesterday. Leaving the door open

Difference is either Durant or Curry have ability to go super nitro or both- not just Lebron—
Could get interesting- Bet Lebron is rooting super big for Rockets-

Going up against a guy that tends to disappoint in big moments and a hurt Chris Paul hell yeah he is.

Draymond green is such an overrated player

Hilariously overrated. I remember people trying to say he was a top 15 guy in league. Laughable

Ya, some of these announcers say things like "GS has 4 hall of famers" and I'm like...is Draymond going to be in the hall of fame..?

[Beat LA]

My Lord, GS is really going to blow this, aren’t they?

On one hand, I think it’s pretty clear that GS winning and advancing is in Boston’s best interests for several reasons.

On the other hand, it would be hilarious to see GS not make it to the Finals after everyone crowned them champs every year for the foreseeable future.

I was thinking about making a thread about this, but what are the possible repercussions if the Rockets win? Does Durant leave, etc., and, perhaps just as, if not more, importantly, since the NBA is a copycat league, will everyone try to implement Houston's is- and-three approach, because that would be unwatchable, imo, lol .

I'm really torn today, I just want whoever wins to steamroll Cleveland. Worried Houston would be disadvantaged due to Paul's injury.

Honestly looks like they could beat either of these teams. GSW look like crap

After the 76ers series, rozier thought he was ray allen and got super confident that he can hit any 3

That caused chucking like we never seen from him

0-10 in game 7. If we won it would have continued to the finals  we would prob lose in the finals because of it

I want Cavs to win.

It will mean more to us if the team we barely lost to in the EC Finals wins the championship. Means we are that much closer.

Also makes it less likely Lebron leaves Cavs. Would love to face them/him again next year when we are healthy.

Yeah at least they beat LeBron though. That’s as good as championship considering the circumstances. Oh well

Scott foster is an atrocious official

He has gotten 3 calls totally wrong

[SCeltic34]

This looks a lot like how we played.  Launching 3 after 3 with next to none of them going in.

And I hate to say it but Harden has gotten royally screwed on some of these no calls.  He got fouled three times on three point shot attempts, one of them going in, but getting nothing for it.

And here is where the games turns to the warriors

[CelticSooner]

Gotta love this new 3 ball chucking era.

Nba is just bad

Straight street ball

No team ball at all

the league was trending "team ball" with spurs and warriors


i have NO IDEA what has happened to the warriors though

Nice to see Jordan Bell buying into the Golden State system of being a cheating flopper! Warms the heart
