NBA: Playoffs thread..

[140]

I can't believe the rockets are choking this

Said no one ever

[boutons_deux]

Rockets 37%, not Championshipt offense.

Draymond with another turnover ...
He is rushing/forcing passes

LOL harden rejecting draymoind no matter what happens he has owned Draymond all series ...

Oh and I feel bad for my nicca Ariza ...this is john starks level of bricks

[HarlemHeat37]

Warriors are so fun to watch when Durant is off the floor

So strange seeing Draymond struggle in a big game, might be the first time I've ever seen it..

[FkLA]

Shooting a ton of 3's is the ONLY SHOT to beat Golden State. If you think otherwise, you're a ing moron.

These are good looks too. Most are wide open. They just aren't dropping.

[Clipper Nation]

Just relax CN, no matter who wins LeBron is looming ...
James is sitting back with a glass of wine at these clowns ...

Sucks that a geriatric Kyle Korver is the second-best player on his team. He might actually beat the Warriors this year if he was playing with real athletes instead of plumbers.

donkey

He's just a momentum killing bonehead

[ducks]

the officiating is horrendous, but Houston is playing atrocious basketball.

The Rockets and their fans should be the last people on Earth complaining about officiating. We've all seen how much of a scrub their so-called "MVP" looks like when he's not getting all of his usual bogus flop calls.

Followed by the thunderefs.

25 missed 3’s in a row. just stop.

[HarlemHeat37]

This is the nature of Houston's offense..they're getting GREAT looks, just missing..

Bad luck, tbh..great strategy, just unfortunate that the shots aren't going down tonight, they could have been winning in a blowout if they even made an average % of these open shots..

[Dex]

Refs completely killed the Rockets momentum in the third quarter with atrocious calls...but they aren't making them shoot 0/25 for 3s in the half.

[mudyez]

Ariza's body language

[Capt Bringdown]

That's not how Houston built the lead in the fist half.

Houston went away from what was effective and played directly into GS's hands.

[Killakobe81]

Shooting a ton of 3's is the ONLY SHOT to beat Golden State. If you think otherwise, you're a ing moron.

Sure shoot 3's but not all 3's are created equal.
You can drive to kick out to the three instead of step backs or swing around the perimeter 3's.

He's better than Kawhi

he’s ours

Yep, if they shot 30% on those threes...they'd probably be winning. But threes only get tougher when the pressure is on.

Game

True, but Ariza is an NBA champion who had a huge playoff run in 2009(shot 45% from 3 on high volume).. I don't think the pressure is affecting him, role players are just unreliable..

[FkLA]

Most unstoppable front-runner of all-time. That's an air ball if Houston is up.

[RsxPiimp]

id trade lonzo for pj tucker.

[Bill_Brasky]

This is a team wide choke right now.

[RD2191]

Man, all that for nothing.
