Also like Curry under 26' for a small play.     4 of last 5 he's been under that #, maybe he has problems in that venue.   (Like how the great Bulls teams hated playing @ Wiz, they had trouble due to lighting in the arena.).  Maybe same sort of deal w/Curry in Houston?


Anyway GLTA

You and about 73% of the public love the warriors. I get it though. It’s the easy bet tonite just like it was in game 4.....hoping the game 5 result tonite is the same as game 4. Enjoy the game bud and love that avatar. Hopefully Vince can get part two right!

As for Curry: I’m not a curry fan at all. He’s good, don’t get me wrong but it’s beyond me how teams have yet to get ultra physical with that toothpick. He would have never lasted back in the 90s. Guards would have beat him down bad. Like the Cavs play tomorrow.....

I hear ya but it doesn’t factor into my decision. Kudos to the rockets for doing that. It’s a great story and I hope the kids enjoy themselves. I’ve had a similar situation happen my team who unfortunately lost one of its players to violence blocks away from our gym. The United Center and the Bulls invited the kids of the team to watch the game, meet the players and just get away from the realities they’d faced during that tragedy. It was a great thing. Hoping for a Rockets win and most importantly, hoping those kids enjoy themselves tonite.

Enjoyed your write up Achilles , I’m a believer in the story lines and process and after looking into stats etc was still on the fence with this game . Iggy being out was a big changer for me , I feel the public and the nba gets the game 7 , i don’t think Houston wins at oracle with Iggy back . I’m gonna tail mate , will be very interesting , let’s go rockets !

Houston is just running GSW off the 3 point line  - just attack the basket with easy lay ups and dunks - make them paid for no inside defense

Tucker has been great in this series. It’s impressive regardless the outcome.

Looney on Harden is an absolute joke. It cracks me up that Kerr thinks he can stick the Beard. Total mismatch. At any given point, just like KD, these guys can get to the rim at will.

Don’t you have your own threads Chief? Ya know....the one that stares bogs are worthless in this series. Capela just beat KDs sh@t to the curb bud. When is the last time you’ve seen that?

As expected....look at this score nearing half. The books are basically gonna present the public with another big decision in asking them to choose which team wins this game. Between 60-72% of the public went dubs and I’m sure the money is higher towards the dubs so now what? Are those bettors gonna basically double up and continue with the dubs or is the second half line going to invite rockets bettors to change their minds? Series tied at 2, game 5 tied at half....it’s too perfect. I feel that with the run the dubs just made, the second half line will invite more dubs backers this creating a ridiculous, easy opportunity for the books to clean up everything including probably the total. Second half is gonna be fun!

And when you got Reggie throwing in the fact that the Dubs clean house in the third...I’d be very surprised if the second half bets aren’t 70/30 on favor of the dubs. Last game dubs cleaned house in the third but if you remember in game 2.....all you heard from Reggie and Cwebb as the half approached was the same 3rd quarter dominance situation. Chuck had even talked about it during the halftime show too. We all know what happened in that third quarter of that game....rockets took it. It can’t get any better. As I speak....chuck says he’d be shocked if the rockets didn’t win. He’s usually off but could he be right tonite that the rockets win? We....will....see!

Harden is playing with fire here. The dude can’t afford another choke job in a massive game like this.....0-17 in his last 17 3s? Let’s see how the Beard finishes.....
