    I don’t want them to be out. Rockets play teams better when they are at full strength.

    I’d actually be a tad concerned if these 2 really didn’t play (I think they will). Rockets already know how to beat them at full strength.....no sense in changing the formula now.

    they're just trying to fake us out! both will be there and we need to be ready!

    *takes off tinfoil hat*

    i don't feel bad if they're out. the warriors benefitted from other teams injuries on the way to their championships. durability is part of the game. if our players are more durable thats an advantage. after so many years playing 100+ games its natural to wear down late in the season.

    Injuries are part of the game and the Warriors had unbelievable luck the last 3-4 years. After watching Rudy T, Dickie Thon, J.R. Richard, Sampson, Yao, and a host of others--not to mention Don Wilson--I have no sympathy for the injury argument.

    We need to keep playing physical ball. Push the pace. Take it to the basket. Run defenders through hard screens. Hard fouls when Curry drives. Make them cut and stop and start and move laterally. Capela needs to wrestle Green and make him fight to stay in the paint during our offensive sets. We can't let Green just stand around in the paint waiting for our guys to drive right into him. He needs to work for that position.

    GS players have fragile body types except for Green. That's their weakness. Their pencil necked players run into Harden and come out limping while he just keeps on rolling. All of our guys have solid body types and we need to exploit it. I'm not saying play dirty, but I am saying play physical. The refs are calling touch fouls against us so we might as well make each foul count.

    Don't walk the ball up the court and let GS stand around and watch Harden. Fast pace, physical play with off the ball movement has been the difference in our wins vs losses.

    As far as excuses go, all teams have weaknesses and fragility is theirs. I have no problem exploiting it. Playing a pretty game doesn't force them to face their weakness.

    Who ****ing cares about them having semi injured guys, we have Luc out which evens Iguodala injury, Klay was playing yesterday, he's fine, not 100% maybe, well, Chris wasn't 100% either.

    Good. We can exploit him. GS feels obligated to get him shots and every shot he takes is one that KD didn't.

    Chris Paul is no where near 100% but talking heads rarely bring that up.
