    I bet he misses all of the first round and half of the second round.

    Asterisks are for p*****s. Scoreboard is scoreboard. I don't give a sh*t what screamin' A or any of the media says. If Curry is out then he's not as durable as Harden who takes ten times the punishment. Who's better? The guy on the court, that's who.

    Was thinking the same. Expect warriors to play every 5 days in the first and second round.

    As opposed to the Rockets who are known to be bad asses in the playoffs?

    Don't you worry!

    Granted Nets regular season record is better this year because Airemy has not played this year as opposed to last year, they are still not going to make the playoffs!

    Which means you dont need to worry about Toronto or Cleveland!

    The media and most NBA fans sure as hell are going to use injuries to keep their narrative against the Rockets intact. I hope they're fully healthy so when we beat them there won't be any excuses.

    It's too late. No matter what it will be that they were hobbled or de-railed by all these injuries near the end of the season. Scoreboard is scoreboard.

    Does a anyone remember a few years ago when they almost swept us with Curry being hurt. I know we got cp3 now, but let's be cautiously optimistic.

    Warriors without a healthy Curry is pretty much DONE this year. They probably will struggle mightily against the Blazers, and has no chance against the Rockets.

    Curry production in 2016 after and before the MCL 2 strain is night and day.

    I'm not so sure about Portland being too much of a threat. Locked in KD, Draymond, Klay can make quick work of many teams.

    Can't tell if your being sarcastic here or not.

    It's not going to be a walk in the park, but if the rockets won in 6 I wouldn't be shocked either. The warriors three all stars are not interchangeable, they don' have the depth they used to have, and this rockets team is hitting their stride at the exact right time. Again, I wouldn't bet my house on the rockets just yet, but I'm not one of the crowd saying this team is still the underdog.

    Dude that was the 2016 “broken team” rockets. We had dwight, brewer, and bickerstaff. We were a .500 team that year. Our record was literally 41-41

    I dont take anything from that year and apply it to this team.
