Not making 3s against the Warriors in a playoff game is a Rockets tradition
Theyāre young and they donāt have a closer. Warriors in 6.
warriors held them off game two looks like do or die for the rockets

sengun is probably going to be our closer in the playoffs but that isnāt as concerning as the backcourt going MIA the way they did tonight
the coogs could survive a R32/S16 game if our backcourt went 7/34 but in the NBA thats a recipe for disaster in the playoffa

The Rox played good enough defense to win 70-80% of playoff games.
But if you canāt score the ball you canāt winā¦.bad shooting nightā¦.it happens.
But they need to do a better job of recognizing who has a bit of a hot handā¦.Someone tell Fred that your percentage of making a three increase as you move closer to the lineā¦.you donāt have to shoot the 3 ball 7 feet behind the line.
And Golden State has no answer for Alpiā¦.but by all means make sure that Fred and Jalen get their shotsā¦.those two guys shot them out of the game.

Last night was actually a good sign for the Rockets, imo. The shot awful, made some dumb rookie playoff mistakes, dug a huge hole, and were still in position to win the game.
Dial it down a notch on the 3 point shooting and theyāre in good shape.

Agreedā¦ I think the Rockets can win the 7 game seriesā¦ now they understand the intensity required to win in the playoffs.

Where does Kyle go back to when not in Houston??
Right now I live just south of Raleigh but Iām trying to use this corporate relocation that I have to move to Seattle by end of yearā¦
Donāt go Hercules!
South of Raleigh?!
I lived in Pinehurst for 3 years when I was stationed at Fort Bragg. Wife worked in Cary.
I miss the golf and the location of of sea and mountains. Wilmington beach and Asheville for the win.
Iām in Sanfordā¦ about halfway between Cary & Pinehurst.
I want to be able to snowboard within 1 hour of my houseā¦
I gave up golf until I canāt hoop, snowboard or surf anymoreā¦
A must win for the Rockets.
they may be granted it and more with butler injured, whole different GS.
well, back to the nhl for me, stars - avs
Its about time Warriors have been lucky for years facing teams in the playoffs without key players.
The Butler injury is a shame. Never like to see anyone get hurt but since itās the Warriors Iāll take it. Lol
Man, Draymond is climbing up my most-hated list and approaching Stockton.

You havenāt seen him enough if he isnāt your least favorite player.
The NBA has had to suspend him indefinitely because of his antics in the past, and the Refs have not done enough to keep him in check this series which emboldens him. He should have fouled out of both games.
He pushed Amen Thompson into Jimmy Butler which is why he got injured.
Dirtiest player in the League.
