Harden trying to get 30 instead of missing the free throw intentionally. Smh

chrisftdot · Mar 13, 2019

Harden was trying to make that second FT

Great execution by Kerr and coaching staff at the end. But this game couldn’t be anymore meaningless.

B Sox · Mar 13, 2019

He was obviously trying to miss the FT.

This. For both teams to be honest. Just like the past 3 honestly didn't really mean much either. They had a great gameplan tonight and clearly wanted it more.

Wow, you actually made a good post

***** Paul at the end :rofl:

But I still got the Rockets in 8

Statement win for the Warriors tonight.

Getting gentlemens' swept :pimp:

danikerhino · Mar 14, 2019

I think it's big for the Warriors to prove that they can win...
1. Without KD.
2. In Houston.
3. Healthy Rockets line-up.

Klay Thompson with the post up on a smaller defender.

Shout out to Mark Jackson
Shout out to being complete

my dude harden wasnt even close to being convinced about what he was saying

thats the **** you say to your boy when he gets turned down by a girl, "yo man, whatever she wasn't even fine bruh"

danikerhino · Mar 14, 2019

Even if I'm a Warriors fan, I still objectively like how the Rockets and OKC are built. I root for OKC most of the time when they don't play the Warriors because of PG and Westbrook.

He had the same "I can sound convincing if I don't look at him in the eye" mannerism.

It's a good win for you guys but honestly I don't think it means much in the grand scheme. But I also didn't really put stock into our 3 previous wins either.

It was our 3rd game in 4 nights and we really didn't have any semblance on offense. They attacked Boogie all game last game but rarely went to that well tonight. W's executed their gameplan on both ends very well though. We missed 3's but a lot of that is credit to some great W's defense.

I don't think this is our true line-up btw. House should be back in the rotation soon.

Nonetheless, it's a pretty pivotal win in terms of seeding for both teams though.

the outcome of this game and ESPN's reaction is a perfect example of how narratives in the NBA swing way too damn quickly. schizophrenic league

rockets, 9 straight wins, for the past week: "they're coming for the warriors." "they're going to be a real challenge for the warriors." [and this is just from local media here in the bay]

warriors win and ESPN immediately: "rockets aren't ready"

Media narrative is definitely the most prominent in the NBA compared to the other major leagues IMO

True. Honestly, when you're as talanted as the Warriors or Rockets, any lost can be considered a "winnable" game sans blowouts. This is even more apparent when both teams aren't firing on all cylinders.

Warriors/Rockets/OKC>Bucks/Toronto/Celtics

this is equivalent to james harden saying "they aint even that good."

both of yall dont believe your statements to be true.

Rockets window still closed. OKC, MIL, TOR only ones that'll give GS a good run.

DCuzz put capela to work tonite. had him out of position in the paint, falling for pump fakes, switching between bully ball and finesse, tired out capela by forcing him to box out, didn't let capela get to his spots on offense. love what i saw from boogie.
