    People dont realize the warriors control the league( bob myers and adam silver are buddies). Adam Silver is a cuck who believes lightskin players are more marketable..

    Gentleman's sweep in H-Town.

    We knew the NBA was not going to allow a sweep because of MONEY and BC they don't want us out-resting the worriers

    Yes - we played like shiit so I don't discount that

    I really wanted that sweep in the Jazz arena. I wanted to hear the silence. O well.

    Golden State is the last thing they should worry about. They're going to get slaughtered if they can't play well on Utah's home court.

    Yeah, I honestly wish after that 4th qtr mess, by about the 5-6 min mark, just let the bench play, especially the deeper portion. Gotta test those guys out, 5 points is awful

    Game was lost with D'Antoni's horrific rotation to start the 4th quarter. That said, it wasn't his fault that his bench was awful.

    Our bench should play much better at home for Game 5. National media is going to overreact about Game 4's 4th quarter but don't be surprised to see a repeat of Game 1 or 2.

    Capela being healthy and having a high motor is such an x-factor for the team. You saw what happens when he's not right.

    Think about all the missed layups and alley oops tonight that are normally automatic buckets when he's on.

    That was the j*zz best shot we will close this out in 5. No one really thought we were gonna sweep them at the start of the series?

    Why do I feel Harden choked this game despite scoring 30 pts? 8 turnovers is too much

    The crazy thing is Harden is an excellent mid range shooter when he takes the attempts. It's so frustrating when he just has a two track mind and defenses can predict what he's going to do so easily.

    House is now showing me he just isn't good enough. He very rarely steps up in the big games. How can you play for 28 minutes and not score a point or get an assist? Heck, all his shots were wide open and he still missed.

    No excuses. If Capela is suiting up and playing then his play gets judged by the same standards. He sucks....plain and simple. He has flashes of good games but overall he’s just not a consistent player. And that makes him unreliable, thus sucks.

    Shouldnt that give you a clue that the league will not let us beat the warriors. Tony Brothers of all refs worked back to back games. Because im sure the warriors cried to adam silver, who was at this game tonight

    wake the **** up

    i just feel bad for harden that he gets labeled as a playoff choker when he defended differently than a guy like giannis. If Giannis was defended like Harden and almost never got a whistle and was called for pushoffs and elbows he would average 6 turnovers

    hes not actually that good at it, being good at it...is like over 50%, like theres only a handful of guys in the league who can make it an efficient shot. ...its just.....tonight was really inefficient, so what the hell i guess, maybe it will open things up.
