I actually hope the Rockets play better at home; they have some great players but seem totally disjointed. I also hope we can beat them on their home court and Steph's sits the full game out again. I'm starting to worry a little that the Warriors are downplaying the seriousness of Curry's ankle injury; hope not.
Clippers are 2 and 0 against the Trail Blazers and headed for Portland, Cavs are 2 and 0 against the Pistons and headed for Detroit, Raptors and Pacers are tied at 1 each with the next two games going down in Indiana.
I know a lot of advertising dollars get pulled in during the play offs, but I liked it better when the conference finals were best of 5 instead of best of 7.
I agree with your take on the length of these 1st round playoff series. I believe it holds true for the NHL too. Should be best of 5.
