    I don't blame him for Jalen. Lets not blame him when jalen has gotten 6 games and so many ****ing opportunities. He is beyond help now

    I was afraid he couldn’t put another great game together. He’s been doing a lot. This is when we really need Jalen.

    They're up 12 cause Hield caught fire. Is he likely to stay this hot in the second? Possible, but I wouldn't bet on it. If it was Curry that was firing like that, then I would be concerned. But this game is by no means over. Need to keep Curry quiet and get out and run a bit, increase that tempo

    Watching those replays from Kenny it looks like Sengun is the one messing up the zone just drifting in the middle. Dunno if that's the gameplan but it's messy.

    If Wolves Chris Finch can figure out the Warriors Zone Defense.

    Ime Udoka needs to be Fired. 1st Round Exit as a 2nd Seed is a Failure.

    I don't remember any Rockets player in history to shoot 66.7% from beyond the arc 3 straight games in the playoffs. It's the rest that need to step the f,*ck up an score some baskets. Defense and poor shooters aren't enough. Tonight's the time for someone else to step the f*ck up and score. Don't blame this on Fred.

    Pretty much, the zone worked because they were playing multiple bad shooters and Hield had bad shooting nights...they are not shooting badly anymore.

    They have to drop the zone.

    Every game we've played more than an 8 man rotation, we've won, every game we've played an 8 man rotation, we've lost....so Ime decides to go with an 8 man rotation for game 7.
