    The defense the Rockets are playing is horrendous. They really aren’t guarding anyone.

    A lot of criticism has gone to Jalen, and fairly.

    But Tari has been far more undisciplined defensively this game than Jalen has been, and has made a ton of mistakes. I think he’ll figure it out but dang..it’s frustrating

    In the 4th quarter, we are going to find out which players have guts, which players have brains and maybe which players will return next season.

    Win or lose, this great for the youngsters. I hope guys step up and force a game 7.

    oh please don't start with +/-

    That stat is highly dependent on teams and nobody realistically uses it to evaluate how someone is playing.

    Curry push off and that's not a foul on him? That really wasn't a foul

    That just goes to show what an absolute sh*t stat that is. It never means anything.

    NBA needs to fix that bs.

    If a player JUMPS INTO the defender on a 3, the max that player should get is TWO free throws.

    Warriors will get each and every questionable call b/c they have Steph Curry and the games in SF.

    Damn, we just cant get away whenever we have a slight lead (hurts more with many dumb plays). Warriors just need one run and our season is over. Hopefully we can prevent that run for another quarter

    Warriors just keep hitting big shots and getting bailed out by the refs. We gotta build a lead

    Agreed.

    But in this instance, what are you talking about?

    They over protect 3 point shooters, the moment Tari's body touches Curry's in the air it's a high chance the whistle will blow.

    You cannot touch the 3 point shooter, it's not worth the risk.
