    He is clearly making a subtle jab at the Astros.... it's baseball.... in no way are the Astros anywhere near as dominant in the MLB as the GSW's are in the NBA. That is 100% obvious to any non-idiot.

    He has been called out as a Dallas fan by many people for years in the GARM.

    You can believe he is a true fan with good intent but the rest of us know what this is.

    How am I clearly making a subtle jab at the Astros? I was at Minute Maid Park the last time we won a playoffs series. How are we "not anywhere near as dominant in the MLB as GSW is in the NBA" when we have the best record in the league, are currently riding a 10 game winning streak, and currently lead our division by 13.5 games only 57 games into the season?

    I have been incorrectly accused to be a Dallas fan because I have said the Mavericks have been better than the Rockets in the past 15 years. I'm a realist and homers hate it when I speak the truth. I also love Chandsome.

    Try again.

    Don't compare this brilliant squad of young, charismatic Astros with the buy-a-championship, media-darling Warriors.

    If you're not trolling then you are an idiot.

    Baseball doesn't work like basketball at all. MLB playoffs are competitive and any team can beat any other team. Nothing is guaranteed in baseball like it is in basketball where 1-3 players can completely dictate the game every game. Even if you have the most dominant ace in the game he only pitches max 3 games out of 7.

    GSW set the single season win record last season with 73...they then added an MVP in his prime and have gone 14 - 0 (likely going 18-0) in the playoffs making NBA history. Golden State is blowing out Lebron, Kyrie and Love by 20 points a game..

    This Astros team is exciting and good but does not compare at all to Golden State.

    The analogy doesn't translate at all. I think you're trolling trying to pump up the Astros so if they fail people think it's worse. You've been trolling Clutchfans for years... people who know aren't fooled by your dumb antics.

    How does not even winning the divisional series constitute a good run? It was a run... but a good run? Not really.

    Considering everything, it was a good run.

    A team that young, leaning on the eventual champs like that. No HOU team has duplicated since maybe early 80's with Phi.

    Very good run. They can't keep losing though, especially this year.

    We used up 7 runs on that catastrophe, how many runs do we need for the playoffs and how many do we have left.

    The other part of the equation: we spotted them runs for their comeback so we will give up less runs in the playoffs.

    How many runs do we have left to give up this year and when should we give them up?

    Lmao tell everyone about how you are a huge Lin fan too while you are at it and that's why you bash everything harden and Houston because we dumped your golden boy and had to get rid of a first rounder just to do it. #venom
