    If Warriors want they can definitely win the next 3 games in blowout fashion. I think they saw what the Rockets were doing and they said it's no longer time to play around.

    I hope they do versus us. He takes a lot of scoring off the court. I also hope Bogut/Green keep starting for nostalgia reasons. I think we'll make Bogut unplayable this go round.

    Not to say Cousins didn't have chemistry issues with Durant, but I do like the idea of playing against what we know and are designed to defeat. Looney/Bell minutes going up only means they are having trouble D'ing us and not threats, and we didn't have Bzdelik's switching D vs Bogut days, and he's old.

    Clips had their game. They likely won’t win another game this series

    Yep, it was probably a mental blackout and the shock of not knowing about Cousins and his injury.

    There is hope Clippers can at least get another close game where they can get hot.

    Curry grabs an arm and cries about the foul along with Kerr, but you watch how our guys will get called for braising Curry with a finger.

    For some reason I thought Gallo was a pure shooter, or does he just seem to never miss against us.

    Bogut looks good. That is annoying.

    Yeah, which is why I don't expect Looney's minutes to go up much. The guys like playing with him.

    But, as far as Rockets are concerned, Clippers don't switch. And I was mainly talking about making him unplayable on defense. Kantar looks pretty good a lot, too.

    So, effectiveness of Bogut's passing and motion game should go down vs us, and his defense might not keep him on the court v Looney, and Death Lineup.

    Double technicals for Durant and JaMychal Green. Durant has 3 technicals in 3 games.

    He looks nervous on his shooting.
