carey said it when he talked about that intentional foul by Morris when he had a hold of both of his shoulders and was pulling as hard as he could. LeBron powered through. It was crazy to watch.

Paul out for Game 7. No way Houston beats the warriors without him, unless all of the nobodies on the road turn it up to 11 at home.

The team without a Morris won. It was a good day.
Love, Hurts.

PJ doing things with the ball is never a good idea.

I don't understand all these wasted possessions. Also, MikeD waited way too long to get Anderson into the series. He should've been playing, at the very least last game just to warm up for Game 7. But to throw him out there now after not playing for how long?

Yeah, this one I dont get. I'd have used him as Capelas back up the entire time. If you're so predicated on shooting 3s you'd think you'd use everything you had available there.

Also, there should never be a reason Harden doesnt run the offense when he's in. Green has no business trying to beat a man off the dribble

Durant has really been struggling these last few games. Warriors are wierdly vulnerable this year

It feels nostalgic to criticize MikeD's substitution patterns in May.

Obviously they need more star power. Maybe Lebron could help?

Leopards and stripes or something along those lines.

The warriors do not look good... They've been so strange this year. Really finding myself wanting the rockets to win this game

I totally misread your first post. :shock: Thought it said "PJ doing things with the ball I never thought he could."

Rockets playing like it's game 7, warriors playing like it's some random regular season game. Rockets getting every loose ball, warriors constantly not back on D. They really don't deserve to win this game.
