Maithanet Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Tonight's game feels like the pivotal one for the WCF. If the Rockets are going to have any chance, they have to win game 4. Do that and they take back home court, and show they can indeed go toe to toe with GSW. No way they win 3 in a row against a team this good. They'll be the more desperate team in Game 4. My suspicion is that we get the first back and forth game of the series, and the Warriors win a tight one late. But I'm hoping for the Rockets to surprise.

But I'm hoping for the Rockets to surprise. I agree that the Warriors will win a tight one, but I don't see it playing out like that. I think Houston is going to have a monster 1st quarter and hold a 10-15 point lead going into half time. The Warriors will make up a lot of ground in the 3rd quarter and then we get an all out duel in 4th with Durant's greatness ultimately being too much for the Rockets. Either way, please can we get one good game!?! 29 minutes ago, Fragile Bird said: You really had to go there, did you? We mock because we care.

Crazy Golden State didn't take a timeout when Klay Thompson had nowhere to go. Crazier that Chris Paul didn't purposely miss that 2nd FT with 0.5 seconds left.

James Arryn Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Yeah, that was gutcheck time for sure with that run in the 3rd, with the crowd going wild and Curry finding his rhythm. Kind of make or break. So, we know this isn’t going to be easy for either team, and now they know it too. *cues 2 straight blow-outs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Relic Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I'm not convinced that last night's game means much, in the grand scheme of things. Pretty sure GS wins in 6, but I'd love to be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Relic Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 5 hours ago, Jaime L said: Crazy Golden State didn't take a timeout when Klay Thompson had nowhere to go. Warriors coach Steve Kerr stuck by his decision not to call a timeout as soon as his team secured possession. "Well, I wanted the timeout," Kerr said. "Draymond was trying to call one around 4 seconds, once he got trapped. And at that point the officials weren't looking, and they're not going to look down at our bench. So I saw Draymond trying to call it and I was hoping they'd give it to us, but we didn't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sperry Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 That was an insane game. I still cant' believe the Rockets withstood two big runs. As Relic mentioned, I still don't think they have a prayer of winning this series, but that was impressive for sure. Things will be tighter for sure if Iggy can't return healthy. Same with Klay's ankle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maithanet Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 The Warriors offense just fell apart in the 4th quarter. They scored 34 points in the 3rd quarter and only 12 in the 4th! They went ice cold from three, and had some turnovers, and the Rockets were right back in it. I'm pleased that this is a real series, although even if the Rockets win game 5 I'll still expect the Warriors to advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s why the old heads thought this team couldn’t win in the postseason. And it’s why they went and got Durant, which is confusing considering he didn’t take a single shot in the final 3 minutes and 40 seconds, and he passed up a good look on the final play.
