1) Houston Rockets vs. 2) Golden State Warriors

Draymond just gauranteed a series win on espn radio. Supposedly, I didn't hear it myself.

Goin' Joe Namath on them. Good for him. He needs to kick a few people in the ass on the team.

Listed as "questionable"

Every time they've been down in a series during the Kerr era, they've come back to win. Grizzlies in 2015, Cavs 2015, and OKC 2016. Hopefully, we can add Houston 2018 to that list.

Remember they were also up in this series at one time. And their record there isn't perfect.

Curry was that way the first few years of his career and then he had a few injury-free years but is starting to get hurt a lot the last two seasons again.

Only when the Ws lose.

Also in all of the series he mentioned, they always had HCA.

Assuming theh win tmr, they'll face something they never had to do before as a team. Win a game 7 on the road

If Paul cannot play in games six and seven its going to be very tough on them. Having said that, game six is a perfect scenario for this Warrior team that is famous for taking things for granted and doing just barely enough to win to come out that way again. I could see a fired up Rocket team taking it to an over confident Warrior team.

If the Rockets beat the Warriors without Paul this series will go down as one of the biggest choke jobs in NBA history.

if true, i REALLY hate when players do that...

I get that losing Iggy has an impact, but you can't compare losing Iggy for 2 games to (potentially) losing CP3 for 2 games.

Thats like when (some) Warriors fans tried to act like losing Bogut for 1.5 games was on par with losing Love & Kyrie for 11 games.

I would rather lose Iggy then CP3 for sure, but you can't say it was unexpected - CP3 is old - and old enough for the body to start falling apart

warriors are done.....no way they win 2 playing like that

Don't count them out.

Don't think they've evr won one at home either have they? Maybe the OKC series.......

Its going to force the players to buckle down. I like it.

For basketball yes - Most players start to decline after about 32 and they are more susceptible to injury because of the physical play and remember that CP3 has had injuries before. I don't think a hamstring considering his past history of injuries was completely a surprise. It is unfortunate though - and I feel sorry for him to get so close and then get screwed by the injury - We will see, but I think the Rockets is going to have a tough time without Paul

 

[True Lakers Fan]

Don't count them out.

I think it's still a win for either side - Both sides have injuries and both sides have players that can step up.

TLF likes his players 12 and younger.

We know CP3 ain't. I was wondering when his usual post season injury would happen.

Apparently some people seem to think so.
