Being clutch is about coming back after being down 3-1 or 2-0. Nothing clutch about winning a series 4-0 or 4-1 versus an inferior team.


Maybe, but I'd rather just win 4-0/4-1 than ever be down 3-1

It took like 5 posts for this to turn into a Boom/Rocket/Clutch City shite thread. FML

Give him a break.

Rocketfan knows far more about the latter scenario than the former, tbh.

I think they'll get more calls in game 5 and win but as long as OKC keeps attacking GS is done

The crazy thing is, OKC has just flat looked like the better team. Save for that 3rd quarter of game 2, the Warriors have been on their heels this series.

Psychologically, that has to have an impact after being ridiculously dominant over everyone all season.

Green has really showed his arse this series. More than he usually does.

If anyone can come back it's this Warriors team. And they potentially get 2 games at home.

OKC has solved the death lineup and Kerr hasn't found a replacement system because I don't think there is one against OKC's Kanter/Adams/Ibaka frontcourt. When Ibaka and Kanter(with Waiters not going full retard) started hitting three's to space the floor it allowed Russ room to kill the smaller 4s GS is trotting out there.

I would expect a franchise with a fanbase that calls themselves "Clutch City" to have more than two championships* on their resume tbh.
There are only 8 franchises with more titles than the Houston Rockets.

It's been 35 years since the last team rallied back from a 3-1 deficit in an NBA Conference Final.

Man Philly kept choking and Larry Bird owned Dr. J's jockstrap in crunch time.

Imagine being a Sixer fan...they lost the last 3 games by a total of 5 points. 5 points!

Talk about wilting when it mattered.
