seminoles1 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Quote Here are some facts about Warriors runs: The Warriors had outscored their opponent by more than 10 points in the third quarter 30 times this season, playoffs included. They had won all 30 games. Since their championship season in 2014-15, they’d outscored their opponent by at least 15 points in the third quarter 51 times. They had won all 51 games. And since that same season, they’d outscored opponents in a single quarter by 15 or more at home in 68 times. They had won all 68 games. But you can add a one to the loss column for all those totals, because the Rockets looked death in the eye and lived. Man, you have to give the Rockets some amazing props. They showed more mental toughness last night than anyone could ever expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deep down, he knows they cant beat the warriors and they have a chance against the Rockets. He's going to go nuts on the Celtics tonight to crush their dreams, all because the Rockets have energized him Agreed. Rockets in 6-7. Warriors in 5 vs CLE though. Either way its a finals loss. No answer for Harden on defense. Hill and CP3 is a decent match-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So yes, they stopped switching everything but the play that was asked about (Curry/KD PnR) would still be switched so it isn't in hte playbook for the Warriors.

I feel like I should be worried, but I'm not. We'll see. I just don't see Durant having back-to-back off nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
