    Jalen got a lot better when the Butler injury rotated some different waves of defenders his way. But to Green's credit, he got himself going which gives the team such a lift.

    Jabari needs to be in the game anytime the opposing team plays zone D. He's a great zone breaker because of his length and shooting combo.

    Not gonna happen. He's probably the Rockets' bellwhether for the series. Just accept it and hope he has at least 4 good games.

    Great game from FVV as well. He only shoots when open and not chucking bad shots. Him not shooting is considered a step up

    I wonder what the game would look like if Jimmy was playing.

    He's definitely taken a few ill-advised ones.

    He's had a lot of open ones courtesy of teammates too .

    Not dissapointed with his overall percentage , but he could easily be 8/12 if he made a few more open ones and didnt take a few that should have been drives .

    Maybe not in this game, but generally every posession really really matters. If the warriors come back and win by a small margin , an objective observer could point to those as areas we could have done better

    I mean it happens a LOT...FVV when he is shooting more volume is like 3/14 or 4/13. But ZERO ASSTS ? I mean WOW !

    The fact that the Warriors keep going to Podz and not Hield is beyond me.

    No jimmy butler so this is how we SHOULD be playing. He’s their x-factor.

    How many ****ing fouls does it take for them to call one on Draymond. He shoved Sengun five times there and then they only call a foul on Kuminga
