[Peep Game]

wait... did you think iso wasn't effective tonight? all the times they went at curry, looney, and young? harden going at KD and klay early in the game...

you do know that we increased our pace right, which was a direct result of getting defensive stops? which was the main thing i was harping on and said was a bigger issue? are you that stubborn bruh

Had the shots bricked instead of fell, people would have still said "you can't play iso ball" . That's what happens when the shots actually go through the basket - it makes it look like you changed your entire offense when you really just increased your defensive intensity, something they've done for most of the season

Iso was effective bc refs were calling any and all contact on defense for the rockets and role players making miracle shots. Pj tucker shot well at home. That is what you expect when your the home team.

Funny how guys forget that dubs still have home court.

Same people hyping this game up is the same people thinking boston gon win in 4. Cats lpve to live on the moment during a playoff series lol.

Kareem sitting on sideline disgusted with half thw soft calls harden draw.

Cmon peep. Don’t even fron like the rockets weren’t getting into their sets waaay quicker than game 1 and making the extra/right passes, moving without the ball and playing with more force etc in game 2.

Yes...the national media over-reacted a bit to their criticism of “iso Ball” in game one because they didn’t really understand how the rockets played.....but they also played poorly and played extreme iso ball to a detriment in game one.

This game was def an adjustment and looked much more like the high octane scary rockets team. Not the caricature of itself that was game 1.

 

[LebronHasMoreFinalsMVPs]

Why are yall talking about bron its curry slander night dummies

 

[monstar]

I wish just once the nba would not kake a mockery of the screen. Its literally a joke ebery play there are atleast 3 moving screens that go uncalled

Games would be cleaner and better if guys actually had to work to get open

STEPH IS HEALTHY I DONT WANNA HEAR ANYTHING ELSE. DUDE DIDNT PLAY IN 30+ GAMES HE GOT REST. **** OUTTA HERE

Does curry get more of a pass than any other superstar ? Dude was 7/19 today , 2/13 from 3 this series and *food on defense .

Meanwhile hardly any slander on my timeline lol

That boy hurt but that really means he’s up by 10

Can’t imagine if this was Bron lol

I WANT CURRY SLANDER!

What is wrong with you dudes? The man said he was healthy and despite his slow movement and shots not falling, mostly everyone has admitted that he played like **** these past two games. It’s blatantly obvious to anyone who has watched the game. Hell, even if you read the box score you can see he’s not anywhere near what he can be offensively, which is what he’s known for. Why do you need strangers on a message board and social media to validate it for you when several folks have admitted it and it’s clear as day?

If anything the difference is that Bronsexuals look up to him and call him your hero, daddy and **** while the GSW haters irrationally hate them for being lightyears ahead.

All the people who are rooting for GSW and Steph to fail, at the end of the day, they have to wake up tomorrow and have the same life that they had before they woke up the day of that loss. They got the same personal problems they had, before that loss. GSW/Steph fans are going to continue to live the way they want to live, and continue to do the things they do with their friends, family and fellow GSW/Steph fans but Bronsexuals and GSW/Steph haters have to get back to the real world at some point and realize their mans has five finals losses while simultaneously being Olympic mental gymnasts to try and justify him as the GOAT.

Nba soft

bogut wouldn't have a career. draymond sets like 50 a night. you know that right? just wanna make sure...

i agree though. they only call it when it's super blatant,hard to consistently call it as it slows down the game flow

 

[LebronHasMoreFinalsMVPs]

leave curry alone im gonna cry

 

[shotsrangout]

Steph curry is nothing more than a light skin voshon lenard

 

[Lovetohate3000]

Yeah ok

I Can keep going if you want.lol

 

[monstar]

Guess the truth hurts. Left ya speechless lol.

Rockets iso ball works bc of the refs that is all. +20 ft at the line tonight with no first or 2nd team defensove player on their end. Youd swear the rockets were a great defensive team lol

It's funny cause this defense you have for curry is the same thing Bron stans do. So I mean it's like the pot calling the kettle black. I didn't read anything you said either cause I don't even care to read about anyone defending curry for his horrible performance tonight

 

[lamekilla]

Why are yall talking about bron its curry slander night dummies

They say we bring up Kobe anytime Bron gets slandered. But then bring up Bron when Curry is getting slandered!

Y'all dude needs to give the rockets credit .take your L stop making excuses and move on to the next game.
I said this was going 7 to begin with. The rockets are no joke.

 

[storm2006]

Not even, it’s just dumb that y’all are begging for slander. He played like ****. He’s played five games in the past like 70 some days. There was a little buzz in the Pels series and wavy’s daily “Steph Curry Revenge Tour” tweets but he wasn’t getting gassed nearly as much as Lebby and the Cavs nor is he as nearly pretentious which is why the slander isn’t there.

Calm down bra. Obviously i was talking about tje league as a whole. Its a problem from top to bottom. I could care less about bogut setting them. Draymond actually knows how to screen, was great at it in college but he and the rest of the league are terrible at this point.

As a defender how can anyone play defense when you got guys literally grabbing and holding every play. Almost makes games unwatchable at times.
