Feels like Houston is squandering a chance to open a larger lead. They should be up more than 6 with how poor GS has shot.

Yeah, reminds me of the Celtics game last night. Houston should be up double digits but they're only up 5. Golden State isn't going to throw the ball all over the place and brick threes all night.

Houston looking a bit more like themselves to start the 2nd quarter.

We’re getting some bench scoring so the ball movement is more confident. It’s not stopping at Paul and Harden every possession.

Now we just need to see how Houston responds to the inevitable second half run and if Harden gets tired

Holy shit Harden that is so dumb. You blatantly pushed off at half court like four times in a row

Curry is struggling with the three. If that were to continue, we’d have a much better chance if we and the warriors get to the finals (we being the Celtics in this case). But, I think it’ll come back for him.

If the Celtics make the Finals, they will not be an easy out for either of these teams. Mark my words. It will be a series. Believe it or not, neither of these teams is playing as deep as the Celtics are right now, which is comical given the injuries the C's have had.

With 3 minutes left in the 3rd quarter, not one bench player on the Warriors has played more than 8 minutes, and only 6 guys on Houston have played more than 8 minutes. They are basically both running their starters out there for 40+ minutes a night.

The warriors have three centers and none of them has seen the floor tonight.

Edit, or Monday night. Going small all the way.

Marv has had that signature line for 25 years: “yessss,and it counts.” Why wouldn’t it count?
It's a riff from "and the basket!" for once the foul is called and then we're looking to see if he gets the hoop too. If it's overused out of context out of laziness then yes, the logic seems off.

that turned quickly

I think Celtics can beat the Rockets, since they have Brad and good perimeter D

Houston is almost never going to lose when Tucker, Ariza, and Gordon score 61 points on 21/31 shooting and hit 11/17 3s.

Sucks when I can't even enjoy the Warriors getting blown out because the other guys are even more unlikeable

GSW have quit Cavs style on this game. Shitty shove from Durant and now Draymond. What sore losers
