What's cool is the production team probably already had their notes done for the halftime show so the hosts are going to spend the halftime trying to not read their notes about how good the Rockets are.

they can talk about how much character giving up a 4-20 run built, and how they will apply it to win the game.

Why is McHale keeping such a big lineup out there if they're not going to run the ball through the post, why is he not calling timeout while his team is being run off the floor

I'm seriously laughing at the fact that big run is mostly Dwight Howard's fault because every time the Rockets tried to have him post up, he failed miserably.

Dwight Howard has .66 or something ppp in the post season on post up. Absolutely heinous.

Curry generates more accurate shots just loving around and dribbling than the Spurs did with an all time great precision offense. He is going to break the NBA if he already hasn't

Again, why is Ariza not on Curry 24/7? Unless I'm missing something, he's their best defender and letting Klay or Harrison take charge of the offense seems a lot better deal of the devil.

Then again, Ker seems to have put Livingston and Iggy as 2nd ball handlers, and Dwight can't get past Draymond so who knows.
