No, I disagree. Its not about that, its about getting Capela involved more, making the GS defense collapse. They MUST get Capela in the lob game more. We will see what the adjustments are for the next game but I dont expect GS to shoot that well in the next one.
Rockets didn't attack switches tonight, that's pretty much the way to get Capela on the roll. It seemed like they were scared to go at it though.
The problem with Capela is when the Warriors go with the Hampton 5 he's going to end up isolated at the 3 point line.

the Cavs definitely have a chance to win their series.

James scored 41 and lost game 1 at home.
It's one thing to play poorly and below expectations and lose, but he lit it up and they still got whooped. That ain't good.

This isn’t Semi-Pro. The alley oop is not going to confuse the defense and change the game as we know it.

Why? you're closer to the Pels than you are to GSW,
Also, you clearly don't have higher expectations if you're "glass half full" view of this series is to lose in 6.

I'll say this: The Rockets have been better on the road during this playoffs...I have no idea why, but they just have and even Chris Paul said it after the 2 games we won in Utah. I know its still a tall task.
Utah is a tough place to play, but trying to win in Oracle while Durant, Curry, or Klay is going off is virtually impossible.

To be fair, the bench for golden state that has looked like a shell of its former self and mediocre all season played its best game all year tonight.
Looney, young, West all had productive night while mbah moute and Gordon looked like shite. That being said Houston was within 5 late.
Chris Paul is going to have to be more active as a scorer and less as a facilitator. They need 20-30 from him.
Lots to take away, if this was in oracle we would say Houston fought hard despite a poor performance. But it is heading to oracle for 3&4 and may not leave the bay

Dwight Howard isn't walking through that door.

West played 4 minutes and Looney scored 2 points. Young shooting 60% from 3 is probably not going to happen again though.

Yea. The gs bench played its best game all year. We may not be able to count on it again at that level.
I still stand by my E Gordon = Swaggy P comment
***eg facing gs defense

Different times when arguably the best player in the NBA joins a team that had already won 70 games and an NBA championship.
I dont care if its "cheating". The Warriors fricked up the NBA, or more specifically, KD did. Its bullshite and it would be nice to break-up their shite.

By hitting on their draft picks?
This makes you sound like a sore arse loser.

Our wings were non-existent. Tucker, Ariza and Luc were nowhere to be seen on the offensive end.

You better be cutting that film. Help defense has some things to work on

I dont see what you're arguing. Rockets are a better team than the Pels, objectively. Thats it.

So explain to me how they ruined the NBA then?
Because they signed Durant?
If this is your argument, then yes, you're a sore arse loser.
