Series Thread: 1) Golden State Warriors (73-9) vs 8) Houston Rockets (41-41)

Chef Curry is still a game time decision....and contrary to some reports & rumors...

....he has not been officially ruled out for tonight.

Just happened like 1 min ago...


Stephen Curry out for Game 3 vs. Rockets with sprained ankle.

Curry to miss Game 3 vs. Rockets for ankle

Dubs' coach Steve Kerr just told local reporters that Curry looked and felt much better in practice and probably could've played, but the Warriors brass decided to sit him tonight and save him for Sunday's game 4...if needed.

Can't fault the decision. Worse case scenario - Rockets win game 3 and Dubs are up 2-1.

It probably won't be needed.

If the Rockets can't win tonight, at home, with no Curry, they are definitely getting swept.

Agreed.

Also.....nice avy choice, @Mecca

Warriors opened as 7 point favorites on the road. With the news of curry sitting out, they're down to 2 point favorites.

 

[trojanfan12]

Rockets up 13 after 1. Be interesting to see how they respond if/when GSW starts hitting shots.

Getting late early for the Dubs

 

[CodeBreaker]

Shit the Warriors are losing?! o.O

Huge mistake by the Warriors for allowing Houston to get its confidence back by tanking this game. I'm guaranteeing right now that this series goes 7. Not willing to predict a winner yet because it will be that close but it definitely goes 7.

I don't think so. When Curry comes back next game, it's over.

Mo Buckets drops another tré.
Dubs only down 7 at the half.

I will say it is refreshing watching a game in this series without the crowd oooing and ahhhing after every play.

*Draymond Green shoots a free throw, Warriors fans go nuts*

Seriously get a grip GS fans.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Draymond is really bitching. He ran into him lol. What a clown

Well considering you arent a GS fan, that is good then. More money for the league and more for us fans to watch

Dwight is showing flashes of what he could be if his team wasn't so dysfunctional all the time. He still got post game

 

[The Derski]

I'm telling ya, Howard still has game.

I predicted there would be one game where Dwight just tears them a new ass.
I don't know why Houston ignores him

When he is the focus on offense and defense, Golden State has no answer.
He is treating the Warriors big men like little girls tonight.

But I guessed it would only happen one time at best. Then the team would ignore him and he would pout.

...........

but the game is still far from over. The Ws are hanging around.

I'm telling ya, Howard still has game.

He's a bum. 20 million+ against the cap for what he brings? He'd be solid as a bench guy with about 20 minutes a game but he's not a player you can feature in an offense. Half of it is his legs and half of it is his head.
