Draymond came over too late to be in good position to contest the dunk, and so he got dunked on. You have to appreciate the effort ... unlike the couple of times tonight Lebron was looking at someone driving at him towards the hoop and allowed the layup uncontested so he wouldn't become the victim of a highlight.
OBG Jay Both team are sets up play for spreading floor and eliminating unnecessary long two pt shots. Both team does shoot a lot of layups and seems like working when you see both team are two of the best in the league. Gtfo with old 90s meme
I’m glad you made this video coach analysts are so heavy on talking kd and iso ball this and that but don’t realize the intensity of the rockets defense makes it hard for gsw to get into their motion offense
Seanus Patricus why do you think green, Lurant and Thompson didnt play well though? Full credit goes to Houston's defence. Gs had THREE allstars playing, there was no excuse for them losing AT HOME lmao. Houston will finish it off at home Mark my words. Houston in 6 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆💍💍💍💍💍
rec0nnec lmao theyve been playing "for real" and it's even at 2 all FOR NOW... Get your excuses ready for not making it to the finals bruh lmao this is HOUSTON'S year!!!!! Houston Rockets the 2018 NBA CHAMPIONS!!!!! 🤘 🤘 🤘 🤘 🤘 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆💍💍💍💍💍
4:20 CP3 didn't travel! He possibly gathered on 1st foot (in reality he was securing the ball, not ending a dribble, so not even a gather) then jumped onto a 2nd foot, then began dribbling before even picking up the 2nd foot. He could have legally put down a 3rd foot! P.S. I am rooting for warriors and therefore i'm biased against Houston in terms of officiating.
Yeah, hard to see an obvious travel here. Paul didn't knock the ball away and didn't put on the floor till after he grabbed and secured. Didn't take any steps as he grabbed it or after he picked it up. In fact, pretty clearly not a travel.
I never said he didn't push off... Please - do not be a triggered keyboard referee. I simply asked if anyone else saw that? Looney rolls the shit out of it, recovers, and continues to contest. If anything my comment was highlighting Looney's toughness.
The pressure is only an issue because the ball isn’t moving. The Warriors rarely get 14 assists in a game, they’re falling into the iso game of Houston.
Thats coz Huston switches everything meaning there are mismatches all over the court......Unless Ariza is on Durant im giving him the ball every single time
stino22527 Man you got to punish these teams who put a little/slow guy on KD....Its an easy bucket KD had an off night shooting the ball but if he plays like himself theyll win
Maxamad Cabdi Xassan It is kind of playing into the rockets hands though, I’m sure they would much rather a contested midrange from Durant off a switch, rather then open threes from trying to stay with their man
You are right, at 4:15 that blatant missed call gave htown the extra juice they needed, because from there the warriors lost their composure. Hence, rockets was able to close the gap entering halftime. It would have been hard for them to turn things around if they were blown at the half (obviously not the reason why dubs lost, but this was a critical moment)
People don't understand, warriors might have 5 so called all stars but only 2 of them are shot creators, and neither of them can pass really well. You sort of disrupt these 2, the others would just go cold As in if you manage to just make them uncomfortable, you don't have to shut them down, just make them uncomfortable, put a body on them all the time. Warriors system relies on fast passing, you make them work for it, it is already disrupting their flow. When their pass don't land perfectly, the other 3 would have a hard time getting the shot off because they sort of need someone to get them their shots Houston on the other hand, 2 shot creators and both of them can pass really well. CP imo is the best passing player right now.
Interesting point english. I suppose the counter argument would be that is why Draymond Green plays point forward so much for this team. He often decides who gets the ball and when and Curry is a willing passer as well.
6:44 I would have gone with the make as well because how many times have you seen the miss messed up (Kyree just recently). Make and foul on the catch. Who knew they would be able to get one of the "golden state screens" off there !
Nobody gonna talk about klay’s extremely illegal screen at the buzzer (6:59) which is the only reason Steph got open? You can’t pile drive a guy like you’re an NFL offensive lineman. I swear the stuff the warriors get away with.....
danielle m The warriors were panicking and Durant was bricking a lot of easy shots. They didn't expect Houston to pull themselves back in it after the warriors had their explosive 3rd quarter.
Albert Lola that's not what we want. Houston wants to barrage u with scoring from layups and dunks and 3 pointers in a fast up tempo game with iso to get shooters open. Both teams shot like ass which turn into a battle of who can have the last laugh
HOU played good defense and cut off many passing lanes, so they ended up going iso when clock was going down. HOU don’t play heavy iso either but that’s how good Warriors defenses are giving no choice for CP and Harden on game 1&3. This series will come down to who hungrier, Warriors has more talents but Rockets have more hustler (excluding harden)
as a warriors fan we just don't have that championship mentality we did last year, the Rockets are the hungrier team. still I will never bet against the Warriors to win 2 out 3. after watching this series, whoever survives will absolutely kill the east
Hey coach not sure if youre gonna read this but just wanna let you know im a big fan of you and the channel and love every video that you put out keep doing you coach!
At 2:23-2:35 Livingston didn’t inexplicable stunt back. It was clear why he ran back to the corner three. Chris Paul faked him because he read his body language well. He knew Livingston was worried about the corner three and committed to it as soon as Chris Paul faked a small pass to the corner. That’s how good Chris Paul is.
Seanus Patricus You’re funny, dude. Rockets missed so many open shots and they’re getting more quality looks. Some of those drop and Houston could win a game quite easily. Just look at game 2 for reference.
as a rockets fan, this game was more of bad shooting night from the warriors (despite that 3rd quarter) than amazing d.. defense was great, but when you get durant is 7/24 shooting, it helps a lot
I've always believed that if the Rockets won game 4, they will win the Western conference title. Haters were claiming that the Warriors were unbeatable at home... look how that turned out ;)
Alejandro Serrano You stupid? I love LeBron. They not beating either Rockets or Warriors 4 times. Them niggas have to play crazy defense. And imo they gonna get gassed.
4:23 "basically becomes draymond's father" LMAO
😭😭
Hillarious lol
I'm still thinking what that means, at the same time, still laughing at it.
I was laughing so hard😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
"Basically becomes Draymond's father"hhahaha
Draymond came over too late to be in good position to contest the dunk, and so he got dunked on. You have to appreciate the effort ... unlike the couple of times tonight Lebron was looking at someone driving at him towards the hoop and allowed the layup uncontested so he wouldn't become the victim of a highlight.
Joe Vaughn lmaooooo
I died when he said that 😁
Hunter Henryk don't try to give him any excuses he jumped I got posterized
Joe Vaughn hahahaha i can't believe he said that
Been nearly 2 whole days and my blood pressure still hasn't finished coming down from this game LOL
David Martin bruuuuhhh!! You and me both!! I'm hungrily still eating up videos on the game!
I know!! Everytime I see that last play I scream internally: WTF ARE YOU DOING?!?!?
David Martin you good after day 4
Lol, watching game 6 right now so NO, this series is killing me! haha
YOU LIVE BY THE 3, YOU DIE BY THE 3. - both teams motto's
OBG Jay Both team are sets up play for spreading floor and eliminating unnecessary long two pt shots. Both team does shoot a lot of layups and seems like working when you see both team are two of the best in the league. Gtfo with old 90s meme
2:22... inexplicably? did you not see that insane pass fake. so perfectly timed. shook me watching at home in my dorm room
3:25 a wild Fake Klay Thompson appeared
4:24 "And basically becomes Draymond's father"?? DID HE JUST SAY THAT??? COACH NICK?
LMAOO😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😅😅🏀🏀
"Becomes Draymond's Father"😂😂
Harden playing defense. They might beat them
Suspicious Conundrum Harden's been playing defense for a while now lol
Harden playing defense is the the kind of wonders you are able to see at least once in life
I will admit he has been giving effort in that part of his game as of late.
Still not a good defender but definitely improved a lot. Others that throw out that "no defense: arguments are clearly just hatin.
Albert Lola hes a decent defender. Not good nor bad.
Remember when he said you need to be physical with the warriors to beat them
Looks like he was right
I’m glad you made this video coach analysts are so heavy on talking kd and iso ball this and that but don’t realize the intensity of the rockets defense makes it hard for gsw to get into their motion offense
The Warriors just keep getting in their own way
The Rockets keep getting in the way, or Igoudala and Thompson wouldn't have bum knees now.
Lmao "in their own way" 😂😂😂😂😂 just face it BITCH Houston is the overall better team and gs are has beens now bitch. Houston in 6 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆💍💍💍💍💍
Iso Joe These salty warrior fans can never admit
Seanus Patricus why do you think green, Lurant and Thompson didnt play well though? Full credit goes to Houston's defence. Gs had THREE allstars playing, there was no excuse for them losing AT HOME lmao. Houston will finish it off at home Mark my words. Houston in 6 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆💍💍💍💍💍

The last time i was this early
I thought blazers in 5
Haha @4:25 "basically becomes Draymond's father". So disrespectful, I love it!
Good to see you giving the Rockets some credit even though your supporting Warriors
3:26 look at "Klay Thompson" asking for the ball in the stands lol
Anyone else see Looney roll that ankle at 2:09?
Really dude???....CP3 is the push off king and you can clearly see he pushes off with his forearm which should be an offensive foul.
Cp3 is the smallest guy on the court. Stop acting like a pussy
I never said he didn't push off... Please - do not be a triggered keyboard referee. I simply asked if anyone else saw that? Looney rolls the shit out of it, recovers, and continues to contest. If anything my comment was highlighting Looney's toughness.
tha'ts what i thought you meant, some folks need to download headspace and chill lol
Yo Melvin looks like he got off of it quickly; no full body weight down into the ankle. Should be a mild sprain at the very worst.
I’m hosting a bunch of friends to watch the game 5, I am so pumped.
The pressure is only an issue because the ball isn’t moving. The Warriors rarely get 14 assists in a game, they’re falling into the iso game of Houston.
Thats coz Huston switches everything meaning there are mismatches all over the court......Unless Ariza is on Durant im giving him the ball every single time
Maxamad Cabdi Xassan and that’s why they will loose. KD will have to score 55 to win that way which will not happen
stino22527
Man you got to punish these teams who put a little/slow guy on KD....Its an easy bucket
KD had an off night shooting the ball but if he plays like himself theyll win
Maxamad Cabdi Xassan It is kind of playing into the rockets hands though, I’m sure they would much rather a contested midrange from Durant off a switch, rather then open threes from trying to stay with their man
Nope. Hou was extending the defense & fouling & holding all night.
These have been one of the best conference finals in both conferences in a while
One of my fav wins. I miss this team man
i was waiting on this video all day! rockets in 6 boys!!!
Danny Abifalah Years?
I just all over ur videos when they come out. The music u use is epic and ur presentation is excellent
You are right, at 4:15 that blatant missed call gave htown the extra juice they needed, because from there the warriors lost their composure. Hence, rockets was able to close the gap entering halftime. It would have been hard for them to turn things around if they were blown at the half (obviously not the reason why dubs lost, but this was a critical moment)
3:24 that fan in the GS background 😂
And basically becomes draymonds father 😂😂😂😂😂😂
can you explain the joke please
Coach nick made the phrase “and basically became draymonds father” when harden dunked on him.
Coach can you make a video on your favourite nba playoff series of all time?
4:25 "And basically becomes Draymond's father" beautiful 🔥
6:58 "Klay getting pulled out of the way by Harden." How about "Klay sets a blatant moving screen that he knows won't get called in the final second?"
Watch it again. I know everyone was freaking out about it but it’s Harden who has his hand around his neck and spins him away 🤷🏻♂️
3:46 is that Bid Daws behind the rockets bench?
People don't understand, warriors might have 5 so called all stars but only 2 of them are shot creators, and neither of them can pass really well. You sort of disrupt these 2, the others would just go cold

excuses
Hayden Fisher no rockets and Celtic are my teams.
as a warriors fan i agree that when teams are phsyical with our playmakers (curry and kd) we usually lose
deharleyva Klay is clearly good enough to be an All Star whether he was on GS or not
ROCKET AND BOSTON FINALS ALL THINGS CHANGE BEST
ho guan please let this be real
Rockets need to play game 5 like their life depends on it.
The super team is bleeding. (Like in 300 when Xerxes bleeds)
FINISH THEM!!!
Who cares no team in the east can beat gsw or rockets this the real NBA finals
I personally cav n warrior they are too proud
Dont celebrate to early. Ball is round..
6:44 I would have gone with the make as well because how many times have you seen the miss messed up (Kyree just recently). Make and foul on the catch. Who knew they would be able to get one of the "golden state screens" off there !
True but I’d like to think Chris Paul of all people could properly hit the rim
Breaking News: KD demands trade to Rockets
If you think the Rockets will win this series give me a like 🚀
juan alvarez 🚀 🚀 🚀
juan alvarez yeet💪🏿. They will save basketball from Gs aid fan base
*no team can beat GSW in a series. They are too stacked.*
juan alvarez
Warriors winning the next 2
All the rockets have done is triggered the beast...
Nobody gonna talk about klay’s extremely illegal screen at the buzzer (6:59) which is the only reason Steph got open? You can’t pile drive a guy like you’re an NFL offensive lineman. I swear the stuff the warriors get away with.....
Watch it again. Harden has him by the neck and throws him out of the way just as much as whatever Klay was doing
Excellent video!!!
2:55 "Curry rides Harden" lol
Was waiting for this one 🏆👀🔥🤘🏽🚀
3:26 You can see BigdawsTV at the back haha
Haren can have his D back for now...
Good job Mr. Harden.
I luv your video series.
I wonder if any NBA coaches watches your videos
Edit: Whatup Tyronn Lue
sorry but you act like the Rockets are the only ones grabbing and playing physical. Warriors grab and push and have 4 allstars
Your videos are so good
Game 5 gonna be good! I expect another close tough game warriors or rockets are not gonna go down easy
to be honest, this playoff was a nice surprise....this series is longer than I expected, same with cavs-boston,
this game was a lil weird since the warriors started to play more iso, maybe it’s why they were struggling?
Hard to win with 16 turnovers and blew a dunk vs an easy layup 😂
that's what Houston wants. mano e mano slug it out baskeball.
danielle m The warriors were panicking and Durant was bricking a lot of easy shots. They didn't expect Houston to pull themselves back in it after the warriors had their explosive 3rd quarter.

HOU don’t play heavy iso either but that’s how good Warriors defenses are giving no choice for CP and Harden on game 1&3. This series will come down to who hungrier, Warriors has more talents but Rockets have more hustler (excluding harden)
"basically becomes draymond's father" *MUSIC INTENSIFIES*
That lineup with Ariza and Tucker as the 4/5....wow.
There is nothing better than a home cooked meal.
"Chris Paul is all up in Nick Youngs business" good one lol.
👍👍🏀🏀
Love what you did with the ad
“Basically becomes Draymonds father” ...BAHAHA I’m deaaaddd
No excuse for blowing a 12 point lead... twice... at home... with 2 top 5 players... and 2 other all stars. All that said, Rockets in 7
To drive those ticket sales, this will definitely come down to a game 7
Coach at 2:23 😂😂😂
3:24 big daws tvv!
Props to Tucker, CP3, and Ariza for being so physical against GSW
as a warriors fan we just don't have that championship mentality we did last year, the Rockets are the hungrier team. still I will never bet against the Warriors to win 2 out 3. after watching this series, whoever survives will absolutely kill the east
Who's your father now Draymond! Hahahaha
best channel out there
He said " and basically becomes Draymond's father" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💯
Looks like I'm the only one who thinks the warriors choked
I hate how the rockets can be much more physical on D because the refs dont call it on them
Hey coach not sure if youre gonna read this but just wanna let you know im a big fan of you and the channel and love every video that you put out keep doing you coach!
Thanks so much! 👍🏀💪
In my opinion, it is confusing when you sometimes edit in a way that plays apear to be happening later in the game. Thank you for the great work!
At 2:23-2:35 Livingston didn’t inexplicable stunt back. It was clear why he ran back to the corner three. Chris Paul faked him because he read his body language well. He knew Livingston was worried about the corner three and committed to it as soon as Chris Paul faked a small pass to the corner. That’s how good Chris Paul is.
But that’s not how their defense works. He must rotate to the ball knowing a teammate will cover the corner, which Draymond did
oh man if the rockets win this series kd might've join the rockets next season and announcing to the media that he and gsw ain't friends lol...
I still can't move on.. cp3 stay healthy!
Could you do a video on whether or not CP3 is pushing off?
"Refs Pressure Crushes Warriors In Game 4"
I fixed your title
*Peace & Love*
Harden: I am your father
Green: NOOOOO
Lmao I love you coach
😂😂🏀🏀
5:57 Draymond did not get shoved. Livingston pushed CP3 into him.
This is the end to the short (almost not even qualified) dynasty of the Warriors
Then it’s not a dynasty by definition
Warriors been on championship hangover ALL SEASON LONG. They sober up here and there but man, how many times can you shoot yourself in the foot?
2:06 look at how strong Chris Paul is!
Haven’t watched the video but I wonder if he gave credit to the Rockets or the Warriors missed shots. 🤔
What did you discover?
75% credit to the rockets
25% warriors mental mistakes
40% Rockets Praise
30% Warriors Mistake
Another 30% Warriors.. get this.. *praise*
I mean of course they get praise they are a great team lol
Seanus Patricus
You’re funny, dude. Rockets missed so many open shots and they’re getting more quality looks. Some of those drop and Houston could win a game quite easily. Just look at game 2 for reference.
In the end, Warriors beat themselves. Rockets played meh.
Coach nick curse is true 😢
It's pretty obvious what the warriors need right now. It starts with Za and ends in za
as a rockets fan, this game was more of bad shooting night from the warriors (despite that 3rd quarter) than amazing d.. defense was great, but when you get durant is 7/24 shooting, it helps a lot
I couldn't believe what I saw from Harden this game. Playing solid, even great, meaningful defense? Bout damn time, only took 9 years
3:26 Dawson? lel
Yeah Draymond got dunked on, but this is the best Capela coverage I've seen all year !
3:28 Fake Klay couldn't believe CP3 swished that shot.
"Becomes Draymond's Father"
I've always believed that if the Rockets won game 4, they will win the Western conference title. Haters were claiming that the Warriors were unbeatable at home... look how that turned out ;)
Keep it up love ur vids
KDs consecutive missed shots cost the Warriors the game gotta move the ball for better shots
Rockets really are trying and deserve a title. Like this comment if you think rockets in 7
Ethan Qua They deserve an award for flopping.
Ethan Qua Rockets aren’t beating Cavs and Lebron. Lets be real
MD Twomp although the rockets lost it more than the warriors won it this is still their year. Plus bad defensive James Harden era is over
they fighting tooth and nail. grindin every night. No quit in this group. The way their playing, they truly deserve to win.
Alejandro Serrano You stupid? I love LeBron. They not beating either Rockets or Warriors 4 times. Them niggas have to play crazy defense. And imo they gonna get gassed.
3:25 fake Klay in the background lol
They have the finest heart surgeons in the world in Houston, yet playoff James Harden remains the most difficult case
rewatching this just shows how many no calls there were
Had to watch before i sleep
Super saiyan these nuts now
I like all the ways you said foul without saying foul because the refs called nothing.
Everyone is with Rockets..🚀
