Too bad the Blazers couldn't figure out how to deny the in bounds pass to Murray. He's money from the line.
Durant looked to hurt his elbow on Hardens head in the 1st quarter. He isn't wearing his arm sleeve (on the same arm as the injured arm). Anything going on there?
51-44 at half.
Rockets are 11-28 from 3, Warriors are 3-13.
Rockets are 9-17 from 2, Warriors are 18-30.
The Rockets are clearly selling out to take away 3s and giving up some open looks down low as a result.
With the 3-point disparity, it feels like the Warriors are lucky this game is as close as it is.

You got to hand it to Harden, even if you don’t like him, the man has delivered in these last two games.
Houston’s defensive strategy of going small and being able to switch everything was their go-to last season and it worked really well against GS. I’m not sure why other teams haven’t tried it as much.

Doesn't ever seem like the going small route ever really works for the Celtics, but no idea why. Celtics longer wing players would seem like a better fit. Is PJ Tucker really that good a defender?
Consistency hasn't been his strong suit. He certainly can be dominant, but he's got a ways to go imo to be an elite player.
Denver beating Portland like a drum in this half. Lets see if they can maintain the intensity. My bet is that the Blazers come back in the second half - they have the firepower to do so quickly.
Gasol was looking away from Embiid. He seems to be calling his teammate to come up to set a screen.
Mhmm. It's the knee to start the playoffs, now it's this. Always something from the guy who's the first to troll everyone else.
Childress turned in a legendary performance at the ACC tournament in 1995, scoring 40 points against Duke, 30 against Virginia and 37 against North Carolina.
Yes, I recall vividly when he lit up the Greensboro Coliseum that weekend. I missed the connection to the Gasol clip. Its's early I need coffee.
Childress is an interesting case study. He was born about 20 years too soon as his shooting range would have played well in todays game. As a tweener he never had a chance in Portland and Detroit on veteran-laden teams looking to contend but even in a few European stops never really made a name for himself. He'll forever be a Wake Forest icon though.
