All it took for rockets to win was getting Eric Gordon to 30 points and play like a maniac and making curry miss all his shots on the over time. This doesn't really look that good for rockets on paper, they had to really pull the plug on the fourth quarter and they could but they failed, this was a needless overtime for them.

Warriors is still the best team in the league but every single day it shows a bit more clearly that if Durant leaves one day (which I believe he will, it doesn't feel like he will retire here) then warriors dynasty will end, they can't really be that good without Durant, they will be alright of course but not this good and certainly not the guaranteed finals again, I even think rockets will be better than them if Durant leaves. This is going to be a very tough free agency for warriors, they have to do whatever it takes to keep Durant.

That is actually true. Warriors kinda struggled these past few games with Durant carrying the team with his insane shooting combined with his crossover moves. Rockets showed an impressive game tonight with Gordon hitting those 3s and Harden making those step backs. But the unsung hero here is PJ Tucker who gave his defensive momentum on the team.

Overall, I do agree that Warriors would win this season but they need to address the issue of Durant leaving the team anytime soon (maybe he may sign with Lakers?). By the way, the last second free-dunk of Curry was hilarious! The bench's reaction was unparalleled!

That is just a 5 point lead with a lot of seconds remaining.
They are one of the teams with a high opportunity to get a bucket in just 5 seconds with their offensive power.

Didn't understand too what they did. Yes they will lose but it's way better if they fought til the last second like their usual. The failed missed uncontested shot by Curry looks like crashed their morale. Yes they lead the series and no things to rush but that's not the usual GSW we know.

On the bright side, even Curry does have an off-night, they still managed to get closed to the Rockets.



Portland Trail Blazers and Denver Nuggets quadruple overtime during their Game 3 series, that's what we want to see. Intense game until the end. And unpredictable who will win.

Almost a 5th OT if Jokic able to drained down his 1st attempt at freethrow during the final seconds.

A big respect to both of these team! Game 4 later on. Expecting a closed and intense match again.

I dont get it.
Why the hell this players are just surrendering a road to the Finals just like that.

First it was Spurs against Denver who just let go of just a small lead. Get that foul and make them do the freethrows and try to shoot the ball in just a manner of seconds and do it over and over again until the last buzzer sounds.

Are they still for the goal of a championship or are they just really confused with what to do?
Now it is GSW against Houston. That is just a 5 point lead with a lot of seconds remaining.
They are one of the teams with a high opportunity to get a bucket in just 5 seconds with their offensive power.

They just let go a possible 3rd win which could make them comfortable for the next game without much tense.
I know they Curry and Thompson have been off night but yet there is Durant and Iggy who have been shooting great.
Me as a player would be mad at myself for not doing anything if I got a chance.

The Rockets won against the Warriors in Overtime 126-121.

Superb game from Harden and Gordon. Good game too for Durant but can't get the victory. Now the score of the series is 2-1. Curry also struggled on this game. On the last seconds of the game, Curry made another blooper when he make a dunk but it went on its rim Cheesy and after that they didn't foul on the last 15 seconds maybe because of frustration but anyway good game for the both of them. Its just the Rockets get the victory.
Wow, I will watch the highlights later on. I am excited to see how the rockets manage to win in this difficult team or the team of champions. Usually though I do like the GSE team for it has a lot of good players but I am always cheering for the underdog. I would like to see another game rather than seeing the same team playing for championships.  GSW had already prove its worth so it is time also for the other teams to shine.

This is the way I do like to see on NBA. Hopefully celtics also will be able to get into championship game.

The way they are playing now, it's hard to remove the possibly that they will be back in the finals again.
Rockets vs Warriors series could likely be the West Finals because they are the best teams in the West, whoever wins this series can easily dispatch the winning team in the Nuggets and Blazers series IMHO.

They still lead the series so I guess they are still the favorite to win. But as I have said in my previous post, this will be an easy series for them so I believed that they can close out Houston in the next 3 games.

But who ever they face in Nuggets in Blazers will not be a walk in the park as compare to Houston. Will be a tough match up and style of play. But we will see. The game is really very interesting and every NBA fans is very happy specially the OT's game of Nuggets and Blazers.

The rockets against the warriors is no easy series though. As you can see both teams are the best in offense yet it all comes down to how they react to the offense the other team has offered. Though the warriors has the upper edge but the rockets also played their hearts out to get the win.

Portland is a sleeper team. If they're able to get past Nuggets and face either the Rockets or Houston. It will be a stylistics nightmare for either of the two teams. Not yet sold on Warriors though, Rockets is trying to make a comeback an erase the bad memories from last year. Still a long and grinding series for both teams.

Good game, at least this series is getting more interesting.
Rockets needs to win game 4 so this could go to another epic game 7, this time it will be played at the GSW in case it will go that far.
Hopefully the Rockets will beat the Warriors on the road, just like the Warriors did to them last playoffs.

Yes, Harden made a dagger three but Kevin Durant responded back. However, Houston can be denied and cut the lead to 1-2 still in favour of GSW. So let's see, this is a momentum shift and we could see it 2-2 in the next game.
Good for the fans if the Rockets can even the series, their last 3 games are close games although we can see that the warriors are the better team.
Rockets almost loss in this game, they were too complacent in the game and was not able to protect their double digit lead.
This game proves that Harden's eye is okay.

Good to see Houston finally getting a win against their nemesis GSW. Yes Kevin Durant is their main man as Curry has lost so much of his shooting touch because of his broken finger.

James Harden proves himself this time, no more drama of non missed call in GSW homecourt and totally set his eyes on the trophy. So it's possible to see them tying this series and putting it more interesting to bet in the next game.

Jokic literally played 65 minutes in a game, which I have to say is useless because if you tire Jokic out that much and not put Plumlee in you are just purely risking him for one win when you fully know he will be super tired second half of the next game as well. Kanter played a lot of minutes as well with an injury so it was literally hell for the bigs involved in the game. I just can't see next game as entertaining as this game, all players will be tired as hell and I would be under for the next game.
Their coach can't risk so he put Jokic until the last minutes of the game. I think he played all the 4 overtimes. He just went out in the last second of the 4th OT. Look at the coach of Blazers, he risked and put Kanter in the overtime even he has an injury and he knows he is the player to defend Jokic.

Anyway, lets watch the Rockets - Warriors. At this moment the Rockets lead by 9 coming in the 3rd quarter Smiley.
They are still young, and these people are professional and they are trained for this.
I guess they have one day off, so I think that's enough for them to rest, besides they wouldn't have to travel, next game is game 4 at the same venue.

Thats what usually happens to superstars. Ive got your point, Denver's coach should have made a better line up rotation than exhausting the most dependable player in the line up.

You've got a point there but either team really needed that win and it might be the turning point of the series. Incredible game specially for the bigs since they have to carry their weight for an additional 20 minutes which they are not used to. Guess there will be no practice for both teams as they will rest their very tired bodies Smiley.

Yes, those are incredible matches by the way, and what makes it more exciting is that we get to see it in the playoffs. I'm sure both fans are also exhausted in cheering for their favourite teams but I guess there's only one winner. Denver really needs to win the next game, whether they are all tired or not. They should give their 110% so they need to take a rest and just forgot what happen in the previous games and focus on winning the next game.

They needed to rest as they used a lots of energy after this game, its really important for both coaches to win this game as they really forced to let their star players to play a lots of minutes, Blazers after winning this game needs to make more pressures to also win the following game at home.
