Sure, but the Pels are much closer to the Rockets than the Rockets are to GSW.

Your reading comprehension sucks.

The Rockets are in the group with NO, UTAH, OKC, Portland, SA. Good teams, but so far behind GSW that it doesn't really matter.

So explain to me how they ruined the NBA then?


KD ruined the league by choking a 3-1 series lead away. Best thing to ever happen to the Warriors.

The Pelicans just match up better with GS

LSU was a matchup nightmare for A&M, but nowhere near as talented

As a fan of the NBA I wish Durant had stayed in OKC or would've gone somewhere else. He's one of the only guys who can beat the Warriors, but he joined them after being up on them 3-1.

Durant not going to the Celtics or Wizards set the NBA back a bit

He single handily broke the league

Sure, it sucks that the rich get richer, but, again, if the Pels were in this position, we'd be insufferable with the amount of flocking we'd be doing.

What I'm interested in is what happens if the Warriors go up by 15 in game 2? Last year's Rockets quit, what does this year's team do?

Harden will quit. CP3 won't. They'll fight back within shouting distance in that scenario.

The Warriors are good af, but the Rockets still have a chance to make this a 6-game series.

So, you're saying there's a chance?

If the Warriors win on Wednesday this will be a sweep.

No offense, Pels had a great run, but the Rockets have higher expectations and I would imagine Pels fans can agree.

Doesn't seem like it. The Pels were hoping for 6 games, and earlier in the thread you said that this series can still go 6 games.

I'm not convinced the Rockets win one, though.

Ehhhh when it matters the most, that would be a no dawg.

Boogie on the Pels helps with the rebounding and easy layups we missed against GSW.

We are a 3 & D elite wing from competing with GSW. We should have won Game 2 and no one has put an arse whopping on GSW like we did Game 4.

You will disagree vehemently but the Pels are closer to GSW than the freaking Rockets.

P.S.

Yall better win at least one game or all of Pels talk will be here clowning yall asses for the entire summer.

And the C's have a shot vs Cavs.

I'm expecting cavs to hit 3s.
Darn

I think that one's close. I just bet my friend on it last night. I took the Celtics, but I just wanted a reason to watch and pull for a team in the series.
