Even if the Warriors pull this one out, the way the Rockets are playing tonight doesn't bode well for their prospects of having to win a Game 7 in Houston.

These aren't your 2017 Warriors.

You’re saying that a team will have problems beating Houston when HOU is shooting 50% from behind the arc? Go on...

Figured someone would say that. They're also playing good D and rebounding well, and I think the huge number of turnovers balances out the insane 3 point shooting.

The fact that Mauer, Guthrie, Malloy and Kennedy are in Oakland for tonight does not bode well for the prospects of no Foster & Brothers for the ECF game seven tomorrow night...

Harden needs to stop passing to Capela when he takes it to the hole. He's passing up clean looks at the basket, and I think it's resulted in at least 5 turnovers at this point.

It's a fast pace though
Golden State has 7. Because of the turnovers, the Warriors have taken 9 more shots from the field than Houston. If you figure they'll make half of those (Rockets are shooting 51%), that's 9-12 points that the Rockets have given away.

Very short? For me, the list pretty much begins and ends at about 3 guys. Maybe. And even then, it would suck to have to be Danny Ainge pulling that trigger.
How long do you think a very short list is? My list is slightly longer for Jaylen Brown, maybe 5-6. I'd have to look. Giannis, Davis come to mind immediately.
