Agreed. Come out and shoot a ton of threes. If you're hot, we'll keep it close. If not, see how the game progresses and rest your guys for game 7.


Completely agree. Our only way of winning is of we stay on fire from three like we did against them in game 2 and against the Spurs in game 1 last year. I'd also unleash road ryno seeing as we have nothing to lose.

By definition they're going to have to change something in Game 6 due to CP3's absence... so they literally can't just do the same thing.

You're right, these are pro athletes, but they're not machines. Maybe keep the roatation tight early on and see how the game progresses. I'm not suggesting a concession of Game 6. I'm just saying if it comes down to it and the W's go on a 3rd quarter run to go up 20 or something, I'd fold and save some of my stack for the next hand (Game 7).


Defensively they still have the personnel to switch everything and that's what I mean when I say you don't change what got you there. If you throw Anderson or Nene out there, those lineups will get annihilated when you switch everything. Will make it way too easy for Golden State to play their cut heavy offense.

Yes obviously offensively you need to see some changes with Paul out of the lineup.

If the Warriors run it up, throw Anderson in or whatever late in the game, but if the plan is play him 20 minutes, to just fill minutes for Paul vs Luc or just running the current rotation heavier, then you are waving the surrender flag tonight.

I completely disagree. We need to make this game ugly. We need to attack the rim early and often. We need to be very physical on the defensive end. They have shown they don't really like physicality, so let's punch them in the face until their nose is broke.

We don't have enough offensive firepower in our lineup for that. If we trot out a 7 man rotation with luc instead of cp3 we won't even get to 90 points and James will lay another egg if he's asked to play 48 minutes while making threes and playing good defense.

Eric Gordon can drive as well. I'm saying I would like to see us start this way and set the tone.

I don't think our shooting whoas are because we aren't getting hot, I think it's because GS plays really good defense. Also, GS is really good at taking missed shots and running down the floor to get easy transition baskets. If we unleash a barrage of 3s and come out cold, we could be down 15-20 in a matter of minutes. Then we're stuck trying to get hot behinf the arc to play catch up.

What are you going to do in game 7 if CP3 can't go?

I'd rather continue to be physical with them, which has worked, and force the issue to get to the line.

We weren't going to be able to play a physical brand of defense for 48 minutes anyway. Let Gordon carry some of the load penetrating as he did in Q1 of game 4 and Q4 of game 5.

The Rockets are due for a scorching hot shooting night. But if it happens, the Rockets have to win. My worry is we'll blow the good shooting game on a loss and have nothing to feel good about going into game 7. Win or get blown out tonight. Close loss with good shooting is the worst possible scenario.

While I agree the Rockets are due for a big shooting night, we have been winning with D. If we start scoring and then let up on D we'll lose. Keep the effort level on D, and I think we win regardless of our shooting.

Been drinking red koolaid and vodka all day. Rockets playing with house money. James plays like an MVP and the threes start dropping. Rockets end this tonight!

I know he's there to support the team and help from the bench, but 3+ hour plane rides can't be great for hamstring healing right?

Props to TNT for actually showing the player intros that most of the time they never do.

Hamstrings heal on a much longer timescale than the time left in this series (and even the finals too). I doubt there is anything he can do or not do that will affect the series timeline appreciably.
