    Hate to agree with Steven A, but he called it right. The Warriors gets lazy with KD.

    • @kbarzeee9900

      Not so much they get lazy but I say more complacent. More lackadaisical and defer to Durant at times because of how highly efficient he is and don't play with force and max effort on every possession. Warriors at times know they don't have to play great to win and it shows up in their focus and attention to detail. The first season with Durant or the second is different from the third because they relax so much. You see a difference in their play when scared or backed into a corner the first two season Warriors come back.

    No Max, nobody owns the players! Not physically, not emotionally, not sentimentally not ever! Don't say it even as a euphemism. It's a toxic statement and it's loaded. That said the Dubs know who they have in KD. They've always known. They've always appreciated him too. So readjusting is a coaching challenge as much as a player's challenge. The Dubs muscle memory is pretty good. In fact it's an underappreciated part of who they are & is embodied in their mantra #StrengthInNumbers and the team first style of 🏀. #DubNation knows who the guys are. They'll be fine as they wait for KD and DeMarcus to return.

    Just like the rockets have a cap on how much their analytic style can win, Max's analytic arguments have a cap on how correct they can be. KD is clearly better than Kawhi.

    Life long Warrior fan. I wasn't surprised they beat the Rockets in game 6. They had something to prove.
    Clay was freed up to do his thing, and the bench proved they aren't window dressing. The team got back to their original core and with the bench won the game. The road ahead is very tough, but the Warriors know with/without Kevin Durant they can win the championship. Tough times make tougher people (yeah, an original).
    Just very happy I'm not a Lakers fan.....

    This win cements the Warriors as a legit dynasty. It seems like in the last week, everyone forgot that the Dub's were GREAT and won rings before Durant. - Also, the "experts" are already picking the Blazers and/or Nuggets to beat the Warriors in the next round.

    KD is not a security blanket. KD is being use to prolong the longevity career of the REAL GSW superstar players. KD is in the team but he's not in the circle. KD is going to leave, everyone in the circle of the team knows that. After he leave, normal day back to work for the splash brother. Nothing changes.

      Justine Sabado huh? Last time I check before KD went down the warriors were up. Tbh the warriors would have blown out the rockets in both games 5 & 6 if it wasn’t for silly TOs & mistakes. Regardless if KD played the whole series or not GSW would’ve won the series. Houston doesn’t have enough to beat the warriors & it’s been proven time after time
