The Snakeless vs The Beardless: Warriors @ Rockets on TNT Game thread (WCF Preview)

[DonKnock]

Can the Warriors avenge their season opening loss when the Rockets spoiled their ring ceremony? Harden (strained hamstring) and Durant (strained feelings) are both out tonight.

Rockets can win without 3s. They're one of the best rim attacking teams in the league. Issue is their bad players lower their floor much worse than GSs does. Weber, Black, Anderson - all nearly dead weight is The Warriors. But I don't see how anyone has watched both games these 2 teams have played and think San Antonio or Cleveland are even in the same league as these 2 for now.

When Kawhi and LA gel, and IT is fixed into Cleveland's rotation then it'll make sense. But Houston and GS were both at 10+ SRS levels this season which is absolutely mad.

I was gonna give CP3 his props for his performance in that game (because for the most part he played extremely well), until all those silly possessions he had down the stretch; capping off with that blatant stat-pad 3-pt shot right at the end of the game.

Stop lying. You hate everything associated with the Rockets and won't give no props to anyone with the Rockets.

The outcome of the game was still in doubt

How the hell do the Cavs of all teams not have enough shooting?

There only knockdown shooters are Korver and Love who don't really show up when they are on the big stage. JR, Isiah, and Lebron especially are streaky three point shooters. You already know Rose and Wade are abysmal three point shooters, so that will affect them when they are trying to trade twos for three with the Warriors. Houston has more depth to match the Warriors in that area, but they don't have the D to stop them. OKC has the D, but those guys have no chemistry together in which the Warriors will take advantage,of. Lebron's recent comments about teams in the East getting better is because he knows that him making the Finals next year gets much harder of he stays in Cleveland because the Cavs are old and no one is interested in trading with them with the pieces they have besides the BKN pick. I.T. and Rose are free agents who will be looking for the bag. Wade may retire. It looks like he might leave again.

You'll see in June again. Same thing will happen. The Cavs could not trade threes with GSW or stop them. They only had that one crazy game where they set a record for threes, but things balanced out.

Is this the direction of the NBA

Did I see Zaza, a fukking center, have Gordon in the post and he passed it out to the perimeter
