Rest him and hope he’s back for game 7. Odds of winning at the oracle are slim. Play it smart. How about our boy Chef Curry tho, getting rid of that ball like it was a hot potato on the final seconds..... Ankle must still be hurting.
Honestly, I don't think he is coming back this series. I think he messed up his hamstring. I am just speechless. This was our year.
I would be lying if I said I had any confidence in that happening. We had them, man...iso ball was killing them. We just lost the 3rd best iso player in the NBA (behind Harden & LeBron).
True. I love old school flicks and still think the 70s had the best country and rock music, and I actually enjoy the ****ty production of old movies, but its hard watching sports highlights in not even 240p.
Cmon man. If youre gonna be a homer all year long, you gotta be a homer until the end. Chris Paul is gonna play game 7 and yall are gonna end these silicon valley douche bags.
Haha, honestly I laid in my bed yesterday and didn’t feel like going down to make the bet so got away from that one. I may even back off Boston +7, NBA wants two game 7’s so I have a feeling some favorable calls will go against Boston tonight. Enough to maybe throw them into a downward spiral. They are the better and more well coached team imo however.
Yeah man! I have to give the Rockets credit. Their ability to choose the worst defender and engage in a pick and roll which puts him on Harden or Paul WAS KILLING THE WARRIORS. It was causing them to lose their **** on the offensive end also. Looney was put on Paul or Harden like 50 times, and when it wasn’t Looney it was West. If Paul really is out that is bad, but we were there a few times with the Heat. The others have to step up for one stinking game 7. Then hopefully he can come back for the finals. Paul has been the best player on the floor this series. The Rockets have also been playing actual defense. Like at times better defense than the Warriors. Switching in the middle of plays after the pick and roll switch already happened. They, in essence, have dragged the Warriors down to iso basketball and then are beating them at it. I hope that Paul is able to play either way. What a series!
Yeah, man. Iso is what the Rockets do best. It's been that way all year. If Tony Brothers is the ref for game 6, I would punt the game....sit all starters (it kills me to even think this). He won't let us win anyway. Give our guys 4 days rest for game 7 in Houston. Maybe we can get CP3 close to 70% healthy. If Brothers isn't the ref for 6, we got to go for the win, because he will definitely ref game 7. We have to avoid this man at all costs.
GSW is looking really fake right now. Curry is not delivering like he's expected. If the Rockets win the series, they get a lot of credit, but I'm still cold on Garden. He still hasn't delivered down the stretch, but Eric Gordon and Trevor Ariza continue to bail him out. The Warriors' bench stunk up the joint last night. 4 points total.
KD and Steph have been playing like front runners. Game adversity hits? They both tend to shrink when it comes to playoff basketball. This series will come down to a game 7 and hopefully HOU will have Paul, if so it could be one of the best game 7s in memory. And we need that....the finals don’t seem like they are going to be very entertaining.
Now THAT is how you want your best player to perform in the 4th Quarter. Bron is the best all around athlete I have ever seen in ANY sport.
Celtics get there they will put Marcus smart on harden. It won’t be easy. Celtics are the better team in the eastern conference final but we are facing the goat in a game 7 so...
Somebody forgot to water the Garden! All the crops are rotten! Fraudkets bury themselves even further in the soil!
Me and the wife got hammered at the pool here @Aria. I was doing my best to pull a 3 way....so missed every second of the game. But looking at the box score!?!? Wtf? 39 1st quarter points, and 25 SECOND HALF points!?!? Someone please enlighten me
Harden dropped 24 points in the 1st half. He got Houston to a 10 point halftime lead. He only rested 2 minutes that half because as soon as he sat for those 2 minutes the Rockets 17 point first quarter lead went down to 8...smh. The second half, the warriors figured out what every Rockets' fan already knew...no one else on the team can dribble a basketball besides Harden and Paul. So, they started trapping Harden, and dared someone else to create. Not gonna happen. That is where CP3 is missed. I just had to shake my head because there is no doubt a healthy CP3 would have won that game because that has been what has hurt the warriors all series...you can't trap or double both of them. That is why iso ball was working throughout these playoffs. As I said after the game 5 win, an injury just stole our championship. Maybe CP3 can come back at 70% in game 7, but I wouldn't count on it.
Throughout this series, Chris Paul was averaging 20 ppg and 5 apg...an average of 33 points per night came directly from his shooting and passing. Through games 1-5, Harden was averaging 27 ppg and 5 apg...an average of 40 points per night came directly from his shooting and passing. Game 6, Harden brought 32 points and 9 assists...that is 54 points that came from his shooting and passing. He was giving them hell, but he didn't have CP3's usual 33 points to back him up. Factor in his 33, the Rockets win 119-115. That is your difference. That is why every warriors' player and coach was smiling even after they lost game 5. That is also why you didn't see me celebrate or gloat.
When I saw Paul grab his leg and fall, it just made me think of how the Warriors remind me on the Pat’s, in that things just always seem to go their way.
Did you end up finding your bull? Lol. What’s crazy is my wife and I were in LA recently and this thick Asian chick I met who was with her boyfriend was suggesting some group action, and she was wearing an aria Vegas hat. Is that like a swingers hotel lol?
Haha not sure. We certainly werent looking for a bull...however going to see if that young lady wants to hang with us tonight though. Being here for 2 game 7’s is pretty awesome, even though I have a feeling neither will go the way I’m hoping. And Love is going to miss the game for “concussion like symptoms”??? Is that an NBA rule? Doctors decision? Or is he really choosing to not fight through itthis game?
I'm really hoping LeBron runs Boston out of their own arena. Haters will ignore the amount of lottery picks and the coach of this Boston team to **** on him. He's out there by himself trying to take objective trash to the finals again.
Who cares about the Lebron/Jordan nonsense. Lebron was magical tonight. Dude wasn’t gonna lose to a crap team like Boston.
Great, now we have to watch LeFail lose another finals. Fml. Go Houston or GSW. I dont care. Just beat the queen.
