If we get our starters out under 2 minutes we need to send a message of our own. Let Landale level someone
We're too young. Regulation should've been over 5 minutes ago.
This huge delay probably helps us, who needed to regroup anyway
Someone in the stands getting to Draymond. Good work!
Knox trying to do more than foul
Typical Kerr

He's the biggest ***** in the league…even bigger than Lebron
Didn't love having to put the starters back in but I don't think itll mean much in the long run. Just need that team from the first 3 quarters to show up in Cali.
Officiating was WAY better tonight and look at the rhythm and pace of the game. It can make all the difference. Hope the league doesn't make the call Friday night to protect its darling

Good win. I'm happy that we got complacent. Shows our young team that you can never let up. Here's to hoping the NBA doesn't throw Scott Foster at us for the next game…
See ya on Friday. Bring the pain
Nice win and great defense through 3 quarters. Amen finally looked like himself, hopefully he has found his groove.
Better have a quick hook with Jalen on Friday
I'd like to see Adams get as many minutes as he can stomach on Friday. He's been huge this series. Just needs to cut the silly fouls. Never thought I would be saying that before this series started.

To be fair, him and Sengun get called for ticky tack fouls all game every game while GS molests our guys with no calls.

True. Podziemski has flopped on at least 3 screens set by Adams and gets the call every time
That's the night that the lights went out in LA

Jalen had a good start but you could see exactly where he started to retreat into himself when he missed back-to-back shots. Needs to get out of his own head.
Also looking at the box again right now and the team went 32-38 from the line last night. Annoying when compared to Game 4. We should be up 3-2 right now, man.

We were last in the league in free throw percentage during the regular season (73%). We're much more likely to shoot free throws in the 60s than last night's 84% (with Amen and Alpy 11-13).
That's especially true when they conspire to get Adams to the line for chunk of the attempts. The game was so out of hand for large portions Kerr didn't even bother.
With all this talk of thumb gate u know they call it first chance they get regardless of the rules
We did what we needed to do. Since we blow games 3 and 4, it was always about one last chance in Game 6.
I don't feel great about it, as you know the refs are going to help them, but at least we have given ourselves a chance.
Winner of Game 6 takes the series, IMHO.

I feel like we are due for things to go our way a bit and I bet they will tonight. I think we win another by 15+ points and set up for a tight game 6.
Warriors started again with their whining about the refs because of poor Curry's thumb. I wonder how that affects the game/calls in Game 6.

O/U on 2.5 of those exact calls going against us in Game 6. I'll take the over.
We called Draymond dirty and the nba responded by figuring out a way to NOT kick him out of a game
Start Jock Landale at center and have him bite Curry's thumb off Mike Tyson style.rrn130 said:

While I'm not advocating for that (or am I?), I wonder what the NBA would actually do if something like that happened. It wouldn't be any different than a player suffering an injury in a fight. They couldn't prove Udoka had ordered it. Landale would get suspended - possibly for a season - but no way the Rockets lose 6 or 7 with Curry down to 9 fingers.

That thumb is already compromised. If we're going to bite one off, let's go for the middle or pointer finger.
Well, normally I would rather be hit in the face with a hammer then listen to Stephen A. Smith, but I just watched him talk about how Jalen Green will be the reason the Warriors win tonight and it's hard to disagree.

Line was at 4.5 this morning, now it's 5.5.
This game has the inevitable feel of me watching the Astros first, checking in on the Rockets, seeing them get a slight lead in the 4th quarter, then going all in on my emotions, and then hating everything when they lose.
Should be a fun time.

I think he's generally right, but Game 5 goes against that logic. We need to keep playing our defense and just hit our FTs - it really seems that simple. Like most, I worry about how the game is called today. Removing our ability to play physical will make winning the game almost impossible.
Heard on the radio this morning the Celtics may look to move on from Derrick White this offseason. I could see that being a move the Rockets make if they aren't sold on Jalen. He'd add another veteran they need, he's an Ime guy and wouldn't require a breakup of any core pieces. The Celtics could use a younger player like Jalen or could be a 3 team deal.
Dillon Brooks plottin' before Game 6 😅

Let's go Rockets!!
ESPN's studio team sucks, but glad to hear Breen on the play-by-play tonight. I can't decide who I like better, him or Kevin Harlan.
