Solid.
How can a team - perhaps one of the top five in the league - choke that bad? Wonder how much of that is on D'Antoni.

Aren't the Rockets the team with the GM a big analytic guru who pieced this together.

Some blame there IMO.

I went to ESPN box score and it was 46-27 and clicked on it and by the time it loaded in 4 seconds it said 46-32

I've seen this game before.

Yeah lol

The defender moved like a full foot to "screen" the Spurs player. How do you not call that a foul?!

Zaza with the dirty ass play. Slid his foot under Leonard. I hate that play. There is no way you can argue that isn't purposeful.

Is there a team that is any luckier than the fucking warriors? Fuck those front running POS fans. Congrats you went on a big run against the Spurs as soon as their best player (top 3 in the NBA easily) went down.
