Officiating wasn't the issue. While annoying, you just have to respect the fact that Klay and Steph are great shooters and hit big shots when it matters.

Im specifically referring to what the Warriors were allowed to get away with when it comes to showing up the refs and the administration, or lack thereof, of technical foulsTexan_Aggie said:

Nail meet hammer. Dead on observation - the whining that draymond gets away with is criminal. He took Tim Duncan's example and raised it to next level.
The league has adapted to their style of play and the core of their team will be past their prime (I realize that Draymond will only be 30, but he is quickly aging). They may very well still win again, but the league will be very balanced next season. Next year should be great.bigcat22 said:Seven Costanza said:
Not a Rockets fan, but I expect Houston to be the favorites to win it all next season with Durant's impending departure.
They definitely won't be as dominant without KD, but let's not forget they won 1 (and shoulda won another) championship before he got there.

It's not just GS, let's say that the Clippers sign Klay and Kawhi, or even the Lakers get Kawhi. I think both of those teams jump the Rockets. This was their time. Paul is rapidly getting old. Capela better get amazing this summer or the Rockets are in trouble.
Agree. They had their window and it was slammed shut again. Time for a new approach. Doc Rivers coaching this team probably wins it all last year. Never gonna get it done with Dantoni imo.
We didn't lose because of the refs tonight but referee #8 was absolute garbage. Consistently trash from opening to close tonight.
There were some calls by officials that were frustrating, but you should be able win a game on your home floor.
-Warriors are without their best player
-Rockets hold Curry to 0 points and in foul trouble for the 1st half
-Rockets best FT shooter misses 5 of 12 FTs
-Missed a ton of rebound opportunities.
-Rockets allowed the Warriors bench to dominate.
I get the Gordon tech versus the way Draymond acts. It is frustrating. I get how Warriors get touch fouls more than the Rockets. Hit your shots and dominate the Warriors bench and the Rockets are headed to Cali. This game was called so much better than Game 1.

Game 1 was the only game you can really be upset about the refs. Honestly we had a lot of calls and no calls go our way tonight and still managed to lose.

Does GS march to another title? I dont think they'll have a lot of trouble from Denver or Portland. And I don't think Milwaukee can win a title with Giannis being such a poor shooter for a player of his caliber.
The warriors have made the NBA very boring to watch the last few years. I'm hoping the bucks / raptors could give them a fight. I think Portland would be the tougher matchup for them in the WCF.
I know it sucks to have your team lose, but true Warriors basketball is the best brand of hoops there is IMO. I'm not talking about the boring throw it to Durant on the block. I'm talking about tonite. Constant motion, big effort defense, sharing the basketball.

Harden with some ominous quotes after the game.
"I know what we need to do. I know exactly what we need to do. We'll figure it out this summer."
Wonder what he's talking about.

Hopefully it's temporary. Dude can't help himself.
Nothing. There isn't anything he can do unless he is talking about kd leaving for the knicks

But who? Nobody in their right mind would take the rest of CP's contract...

He has no clue. That is why he is giving such a vague answer
Missed this thread tonight. Are we still blaming everything on CP3 being old and busted? He seemed to have a pretty solid night.
No just for the other games we lost when he looked like crap. This one is on the team, mda, Morrey and clutch
Strippers
It was a team effort for sure. Didn't want to play defense in the first half and it came back to bite us.
I defend James a lot but it's tough to see him allow these kinds of games to happen. In my mind, a true star would rise up in these situations.

Back from the game WTF another year tasting bitter defeat.
Clint Capela cmon dude, effing Looney out played you. James make free throws. I think it was 4th we're up 4 and PJ has an open 3 on the fast break and he doesn't shoot it. We slow it down get nothing and curry got a easy layup. It went downhill from there.
Warriors are just better than us. F them

I'm having a hard time believing that Faried and House couldn't have given us better minutes than Capela and Green. Dantoni freezes at really inopportune times
I wish we could trade Capela for Deandre. If we're gonna have a huge contract for a center, I want one who is not a poos.
