It seems like GS's strategy is get the ball to KD on the block and ISO him while the Rockets strategy is get up as many ******* threes as possible.
Honestly, the Rockets should have been dominating the first half based on how many open threes they had. They just missed. GSW is playing with Fire if they think they can trade 2s against the Rockets 3s. I know everyone is tired but Ariza/PJ/Gordon can and will hit those open shots eventually. The law of averages has to come into play for Harden eventually, right?

He has, and it makes no sense. Their roster construction is hampering his ability to coach. This is what happens when you have 12 centers on the team and you waste the MLE on Nick Young. The fact that they had to play the G league guy over Nick young in game 5 of the damn WCF tells you all you need to know about that decision. Caspi having to be cut killed them.
Regardless, you have to side eye Kerr if D'antoni, James Harden, and the Houston rockets are holding your team to under 95 points in consecutive games and you have steph/kd/klay on the damn floor, healthy. That's asinine.

why? Nobody takes into the account that Lebron's team is far inferior than the others.

Lebron blew up the roster though. Everyone that he left behind was better than they were as a Cav. Everyone.

Celtics had best defensive rating in the league in the regular season and 3rd best in the playoffs.

The Warriors have like 5 Centers and none of them can play 
Looney - is 0 threat offensively. U can ignore him on offense and help off him.
West - too slow to play on defense
McGee - his IQ is too low to play
Bell - extremely active but can't space the court on offense and commits way too many dumb fouls.
Zaza - too slow for this series. He would get owned by Capela.
Draymond is dead trying to keep Capela off the boards all game.
Capela & Tucker are doing a hell of a job.

KD needs to take a back seat next game, he started off keeping them afloat and then just lost his head
I remember years back Mark Jackson got roasted for having Klay post up on CP3 and seeing it again last night made it kinda funny. That’s not to say Kerr hasn’t been better than Mark but ish hit the fan last night.

people calling for GSW blowout last night? Seemed to be leaning towards Houston if i recall.
tomorrow will be a 15+ type of game. Not even considering Paul is hurt either. He could be healthy

Seems weird to say this about a GSW team, but they don't have enough shooting on the floor. Rockets are closing out hard on 3's, and completely cheating off Dray/Kevon/Iggy and daring GSW to throw it to them.

All while being a middle of the pack offensive team. Then being led by two kids.
Bron’s defense has been as bad as KD/Harden’s offense is what I’m getting at

This team has scored less that 1 PPP three times this series... Gotta tip your hat to the Rockets they're playing better than I ever thought they would.

The 2 best shooters of all time and best player in the league KD aren't enough?

I dont think it's that crazy to say. As good as the Warriors shooting is its highly concentrated between three people.

There is 2 other players on the floor bro. You ever play 3 vs 5 offensively?? No excuses, Kerr gotta put ppl in better situations.
Best shooters will not get the job done, Klay cannot do anything on offense but shoot. Crowd him, that is all.

Mike always has been a top coach in the NBA who got extremely unlucky in the playoffs many times before, ya'll now only want to give him credit to slander Kerr.. It's typical

Both KD and Harden's defense have been poor in this series as well. KD has the worst defensive rating on the Warriors outside of Swaggy P and David West.

The hilarious thing about the Warriors is that Cook is the answer to provide that extra spacing but he froze up and missed the big shot.

Look at all the KD post ups. A gsw big was tucked in the dunker spot and help came off of him.

It SHOULD be, but the combination of Rockets closing hard And playing Kevon + Dray lineups is making life hell for GSW and taking away clean looks from 3.
