    They are right. The season series win means more the Houston than it does to them. We are the underdog so we need all the positive reinforcement we can get.

    It's like the Warriors are obsessed with not beating the Rockets.

    Having lost 2 of 3 including ring night, they are doing a good job of walking the not walk. Strength in numbers

    Nothing wrong with that article or the Warriors' response and they shouldn't be worried. The Rockets still have a lot to prove this season regardless of whats happened up to this point. I would love to see the Warriors at their best and the Rockets at their best when it comes down to it. I'd rather beat them when they are at their best.

    The Warriors are too good to be concerned with any team imo. The other teams are the ones who are concerned...as they should be.

    I would just rather beat them. GSW won the 2015 championship when all their opponents were injured. History doesn't care.

    As much as the flubs are disinterested, the ROX can't get overconfident. Have to play better still and get contributions from everyone to beat these guys in 7 game series.

    Gotta love the first two threads.

    Warriors ignore Rockets
    Rockets think Warriors aren't invincible

    Ffs. Let's not get cocky, they are allowed to. 3 appearances, 2 rings, two top 5 players, etc. I'd rather they don't have any bulletin board material for us.

    I mean what do you expect them to say?. “We’re shaking in our boots”?. They are two time champs and they have to be confident.

    I'll post it all over the bulletin board with my named signed. That scary attitude is not going to help the Rockets win.

    Seriously. If every single warrior got hurt and they had to forfeit the WCF and then we won a title I would be fine with it

    Bay Area hubris is unseemly.

    Lol that's kind of loser mentality. If a championship team needs bulletin board material be motivated then.....


    Secondly. I want them to be cocky. Then they have to back it up. It's a reason why we said we obsessed. Everybody else has given up. We treating them like they put they shorts on like us. They ain't used to that trust me. Like a attractive woman sometimes hearing no

    I’m shocked.

    I expected the Warriors to say:
    they are scared and fear the Rockets,

    they want to press the panic button.

    their empire was crashing down.



    Instead they said the opposite. Except Durant who said the Rockets are tough.
