[NBA] Unofficial Discussion Thread

I feel asleep for a while midway through the 2nd quarter, and only saw the final 4 minutes of the 4 quarter, the Warriors were up by I think 8 or 6 around that time. During that stretch, I think the experience actually favored the Warriors more because Rockets young guys played and looked extremely nervous, while the Warriors were using the clock and having the vets to their advantage.  I'd say it's probably a needed experience for those guys to grow and come back even stronger next season.

In my opinion, the Rockets still have great potential that they haven't fully realized yet. So yes, I would also expect them to be even stronger next season.
As for the outcome of this series, I agree with you that experience was crucial, not only in game 7 but basically throughout the entire series.

Of course they do have a huge potential, the majority of their roster is filled with guys aged 23 years old or below, and with their currently level of performance, it's not rocket science to presumed they could accomplish great things.

The series between Boston Celtics and New York Knicks is upon us, Game 1 taking place at TD Garden, the Celtics are -9 points favorites and with what happened between Cavs and Pacers last night, I'm inclined to believe that the Knicks could steal game 1 as well, so I'm erring on the side of caution here, I'm going with the Over 211.5 @ 1.81

Rockets did display some spectacular moments but they simply need more time and poise under duress. The Warriors definitely profited from experience since they understood just how to end it. I think the Knicks have the underdog mindset and might surprise Boston in the Celtics versus. Knicks matchup  Game 1 is generally unpredictable, especially with the energy at TD Garden

The Rockets will learned from that experience and they will be better next season. They are a young team and also they a lot to improve while the Warriors simply can't be denied with the experience brought by Steph and playoff Jimmy.




Will be rooting for the Nuggets with the spread today. The handicap is just too high for this Nuggets team.
