Will the Warriors win Game 6 without Kevin Durant?
Yes
No
@Paul Bearer no they not bro lol thru see how they play now when kd don't enter the whole game
No.
@Paul Bearer pump the brakes. Klay is very overrated and inconsistent. He is the perfect example of a roll player he's good at home sucks on the road.
“KD is Chinchilla seats in a Rolls Royce” LOOOOL SHANNON got the best one liners!! 😂😂
Your point being
“It’s a Rolls!” 😂😂😂
Shannon too damn funny!!
Yeah, he does! LOL!
Dam that's deep
The warriors went back to the OG way when KD got hurt. Steph and klay. draymond being the heart and soul/getting techs
Plank good luck with that with a bench
@Mauricio93201 Planks avi is how I looked at your comment
Getting techs lmao, well said.
I would love Draymond to stay tech free but you're so right. The ball flowed like the old days, Klay was comfortable, Steph moved well.
It’s the teams fault for not playing their best. KD isn’t a high volume shooter so they all still have the potential to get 20+ points. And Draymond and iguodola can get a good 10-15.
That's the thing with luxuries ,they become necessities over time.
So true
Seriously tho! They weren't this dependent on Durant until the middle of last year
A necklace becomes necessary when?
Chali Ray cause your confidence can eventually be wrapped around with it it, so when it comes off, so does your confidence
@@challiray thats cute u think kd is a necklace lol
You notice how everyone plays well when Steph is playing well?
That feeling from Game 5 reminds me of everything pre-Durant. That’s the Warriors squad I love to watch
Haven't seen you in awhile thought you died. Everybody was playin well except Steph lol
Yeah but our bench is terrible. Thats going to be our downfall and we need any body we can get, especially the likes of KD
Better prove it and win this series then. I don't want no excuses
William Kats III
Yea it’s unfortunate but still they’re just gonna have to step up. When you got a flow and ball movement going, that can do wonders for any team.
Htown Rockets
See you in Game 6 buddy
Klay and Steph did the fusion and turned into “Gogeta” after KD left 🤣😂
FoshoTheOne Kleph
You mean steph finally grew some balls
@@Floyd_Steel L
FoshoTheOne Vegito better
They made “Gotenks” not “Gogeta” lol Kevin Durant is Vegeta. 😂😂
Monday: Warriors need KD
Friday: nah he is just a luxury.
wow 😂😂😂
Word, they lose game 6 and they will be back on kds tip. Greens due for a technical or two.
They need him in order to dominate, but not to win.
Jesika Vocisano to be fair I think another show said they need KD. Still the media is inconsistent and unreliable.
The media can make you go NUTS
I was hurt seeing capela go 3-10 from 2 feet. He couldn't even make a put back basket. I was so hurt bro 😭
Morty Smith lol I was sitting there after the game like how tf does Capela of all people shoot so poorly 😂😂
Kenneth Faried shouldve played this series against the Warriors..High energy, consistent, plus able to shoot 3s, Also last year Warriors played the "Hack a Capella" because he cant make his free throws,,What has changed? LOL....Rockets are dumb for not playing Faried.
MTB4miSoul fr get the manimal back in
Looney protected the rim well and everybody chipped in
He has no post play, no mid range game. Dude can only dunk.
With kd and no Steph curry the warriors: 28-18 61%
With Steph curry and no kd the warriors: 29-4 88%
Obviously Steph Curry would put up better numbers w/o Durant. He gets to take more shots.
KD and Klay were the main reasons the Dubs were up as much as 20 in the 1st half.
Last Of The Starmakers
That’s winning % not shooting %
I know it's winning percentage.
I'm saying Steph gets to hold the entire mantle for himself with KD gone, the team runs through him.
Is that playoff numbers cos Steph plays average during playoff
LeeTravius Mckay but you ain winning no finals with curry as your leader against a healthy team 🤣
This series just got more exciting 😁🙌🙌🙌
Facts
*less
aaaand it's over
Miles Highson lol beat me to it aha
I don't know if people have been watching the games or just highlights, this post season KD has been playing for the team and moving the ball. Klay and Steph have just been missing shots. They were not getting less shots but we're shooting badly even missing lay ups
They’re not in rhythm
Thank you they keep trying to act like KD is the problem the Rockets just choked last night
yazidi009 while that’s true , they was playing a completely different style Gs clippers . Understandable when kd being guarded by someone 6ft. Should’ve been dropping 60
@@jonjon5665 I watched the game, and Klay and Steph seem like they woke up after the kd incident. I don't know if it's rithym or just necessity. What I will day is that there was a vast difference on how they played pre kd, and after kd injury.
Klay has been shooting bad since kd got there. Steph and Klay was shooting dam near 50% fron the 3 before kd got there
I disagree. Its too soon to tell. Rockets used a lot of energy after being down 20
Agree, the next 2 games will be different because now the Rockets will be able to set traps for Steph. I'd be shocked if Houston don't force game 7.
This is still, even without home court, Houston's series to lose
Poor play in the 4th from Harden and Paul and GS only outscored them by 2 points after KD went down. I'm not sold on what I saw from GS.
@King James 6ix God Yeezus Rap God Dunno if you are trolling with common knowledge anyone that follow the NBA has heard a million times but what does that have to do with anything...
there is no predicting when it comes to this series, it can go both ways like i have probably never seen before.
Tlotliso Koloi lol when you set traps for steph is when the ball movement hurts you.
With no KD we saw the re emergence of the splash brothers.
It’s not the same warriors team. Their bench has gotten weaker. KD has been a necessity this postseason.
Taking 14 minutes of gameplay does not justify them being able to win championship/series/full games without KD.
Exactly, he talks like KD joined the exact 2016 team. They had to let a lot of them walk in order to get KD.
Gotta love twitter take Broussard 😂😂 so what happens if Hou blows them out at home and then wins game 7? then what does Broussard say? "With KD out and no bench they just didn't have enough to match rockets firepower"
Floyd steel I’ve been saying for years Broussard is a fraud. They barely won without KD and it came down to a terrible no call with Klays last shot
The rest of the team has been playing great they're even getting points from off the bench If the Warriors get locked in they could be Houston in game 7
Milwaukee's year
If houston still lose this series they the biggest frauds ever
Darth Cheeks84 facts
GNB I don’t think you understand what the definition of fraud is but ok wtv makes you sleep at night
Nah. Warriors are still too good
How about we talk about how Chris Paul is practically a role player making 35 million.
They already frauds ...they cant win without the refs
Steph went off in the 4th even with 2 injuries 🔥🔥
went off shooting 30%. good one
L0ngstrip i said 4th quarter. Maybe read first?? 😂
Still shot less then 50% in the 4th
Chase Burgess so no one has shot less than 50% before? No chance warriors win g 5 without steph
Juan Fathi but shooting under 50% isn’t going off when u scored 12
It’s not the same Warriors team from there 73-9 team. They don’t have as much depth as they did. It’s one thing to do it for a quarter against Houston it’s another thing to win the title without KD
Facts. The Warriors are the ones who decided to go out their way and recruit KD and sacrifice alot of their depth for him.
You are correct. It's mindblowing when Steph or Klay is struggling it is because of KD and his isos when infact he is the one carrying them.
Exactly they only did it for a quarter
calvin hammond they beat a fully loaded rockets team without KD the last game of the regular season to , that wasn’t just 1 quarter.
Tee Glock bruh u will c
KD might be a luxury, but with this GSW team that has negative bench depth, he's a necessity to win another championship. Rockets had it right there for the taking and they blew it as usual.
Facts but if CP3 could have step up for a lil bit for the 4th Court cuz you know James Harden losses energy in the 4th
Right when they didn’t have kd they had a great bench
Ur smart sir
These analyst are retards they dont want to accept its not the same team
What i hate the most is the excuses they only won becuase kyrie and kevin love wasnt there, then people say they won 73 games then lost because of draymond suspension and bogut and iggy being hurt, the warriors went to kd for help and he got help along the way both parties benefited from kd joining, yall do realize kd played with non shooters most of his career and put up the same efficient numbers while having andre roberson as his shooting guard an having a point guard who shoots best 42%fg all superstars surround themselves with shooters so they cant get doubled
Chris Brousard gon' look like a genius tomorrow morning. Lol
Sometimes you gotta lose your luxury to learn how to grind again and that’s what the Warriors did.
KD - Chinchila seats in a Rolls Royce...😁
Shannon Sharpe
Not an achilles tear unless it's partial. He was walking too well for it to be a complete achilles tear.
its a strain out at least a week
He's holding out.for a big contract
Rockets choked the biggest game of their career, had they won they’d win the series and make the finals
They did the same last year, when the three is not falling they don't adjust
You no what can’t even be mad at that I think dantoni should be fired ..... it’s no way after that injury you don’t immediately trap the only ball handler that was left in steph and put pj on Thompson someone he can deal with cause he ain’t 7 ft and put a center in for rebounding but nope keep shooting threes switching capela on curry ... it’s a reason he ain’t a champion
There can only be one I’m not a rockets fan but the rockets need someone better than d’antoni man.
I disagree with yall. Rockets actually played pretty well; just a couple plays didnt go their way down the stretch. Warriors rallied at home after KD went down.
Now they go back to Houston and have to keep up that same energy for 48 minutes instead of just a half. Notice how Harden had arguably his most efficient game last night and wasnt even that aggressive in scoring, getting an easy 30 piece. Role players play better at home, wo look for CP, EG and PJ to have good performances. Look for Harden to continue being efficient and have another solid scoring performance. Hopefully Capella shows up, but if not Rockets can go small with Rivers like they've done the past couple games. This series is going to 7 and Game 7 will hopefully be an epic classic!
Y'all acting like the game was a blowout 😂😂
Warriors barely got the win. Houston had to come up from a huge deficit to even make up. Using all that energy to make up took it out of them. Houston is winning 6, 7
The goat Chris Broussard
Bucks v. Warriors Finals 2018-2019 👌🏾
Marcus Sapp Raptors v Warriors Finals 2018-2019 👌
It was always gonna be bucks vs Denver
Nonsense! The game has changed, he took them this far!
“If Chris Paul didn’t get hurt tho would’ve won” he’s healthy now😂😂what he’s doing
They would of lost last year IF HE WAS HEALTHY TOO!!
@@InkedupT-raw 🤣🤣🤣🤦🏿♂️
Chris Paul was ballin last year in that series. They had no answer for him.
Tsunami Rob
Bro what is that bald spot on the top of your head? Delete that picture fam 🤣👴🏾
Old people don't get healthy over time. CP3 is old. Now.
This right here is the reason why Broussard is the only NBA analyst I rate. He is almost 90% without sentiment when he dissects any topic of discussion. He is my NBA best!
they dont have harrison barnes, or a great bench anymore. How you gonna go back to 73-9 with 3 starters + iggy
older iggy bogut and shaun and barnes isnt there ...yeah the warriors are fine....in what world do people live in?...tucker now is on klay all night long..have fun with that curry
Yeah boogie did great last night. He makes a huge difference for them when he’s on the floor
Broussard out here with all em 📠
These sports analysts keep changing their stories.🤣🤣🤣☺️
And many in the comment sections too.
Nelly Davis And we still watch so they’re doing something right lol
Miguel Ovalle lmao
If the warriors win this next game the amount of hate/respect they’re gonna get is going to be huge lol
Durant joining Warriors robbed us from S.Curry for the last 3 years
You right. He would’ve maybe won 3-4 MVP’s
He blew a 3-1 lead in the finals lmao
daddybars He, or his team?
Produced By Khirey Akeem he is the leader of the team
not at all he's been getting the same amount of shots as Durant if not more it's just that KD has been more effective than Curry in the post season there's a reason y?
KD won back 2 back FMVP's.
Lets see the Warriors can survive the next 2 games.
Prayers for KD🙏I hope he didnt tear his Achilles
First 7 seconds Chris Broussard is lying. I swear he just agreed the Warriors need KD more than KD need them a week ago
Yes he is a hypocrite
They need him, but they could still make noise without him.
No offense but they don't need him they need curry he makes the team who they are
Broussard a clown
@@GarbageMan144 Nah, He's FS1's best NBA Analyst 🙄🙄😐😐
Houston should’ve won that game yesterday. No KD James Harden has to take over. CP3 ain’t doin nothing rn
thank you Mr. Broussard. Been saying this.
Chris, always love your perspective
If the Warriors still win the chip with KD being injured for the whole playoffs, I will be a little uptight but I think that would also do wonders for Curry's legacy. If they three peated but KD got every Finals MVP he would get the Kobe treatment where people try to undersell what he contributed because there was another dominant talent on the team.
ImAviex Well yeah he needs to go prove himself so he can show us that he can be clutch when it really matters.
I think it's KD getting the Kobe treatment by the media because Steph won without him.
Totally agree with Skip. The entire dynamic of the team changed when KD came along. They went back to their old selves once he was carried out.
LMAO @ "is the 7ft monster clapping for the ball!?" Dead dead dead
chris B is the best analyst. He makes every show he goes on better
The statement was true 3 yr ago when KD joined Warriors, luxury not necessity. But now when u get used to the luxury, it is hard if not impossible to get back with just necessity.
Hmmm, I think it wasn't that hard for them.
Nick H because Houston is that bad?
Warriors can win it in 7 , get pass Denver or Portland in 6 but them playing the bucks or Raptors in the NBA Finals with no KD they will lose like they will have no answer for Kawhi or Giannis
Kd will be back in the next series it's only the rockets they have to beat without kd
Jabrony Lin if you think 1 player gone beat the warriors even without KD then you must just started watching basketball. LeBron couldn’t even beat them by himself & he’s a better overall player than kawhi or giannis
Tee Glock obviously Ik one player won’t beat a team but I’m saying as in depth the bucks have a better team than the Warriors if KD is not in the picture for the NBA Finals , Bucks go about 10 deep
Jabrony Lin well I would have understood you better if you would have just said bucks or raptors instead of just singling out their best players.
GS is so small especially with KD hurt, basically they will need to rely on Draymond for a full 48 minutes to even try to guard Giannis or Kawhi.
Thank you Chris!
Warriors are up 3-2 with home court advantage and they got the top 4 players from their 2016 core so there's no excuse for them not to win
We will see. That bench isn't nearly as deep as it was before KD came
Kd boogs out
Nice narrative you’re trying to create 🤦🏿♂️
If any team has no excuse for losing it's the choking Rockets.
Lmao are you seriously making excuses for the rockets already if they lose to this kd-less warriors team what a joke
I need to see them play a couple games before I judge.
Actually, espn being espn
Manny G you mean Fox lol
Tyree Brown 🤥🤭😆
😆🤭🤫 🤔
I don't understand why these analysts leave out certain specifics, GSW 73-9 team had more depth, and this version is not that deep....GSW gonna have their hands full
Broussard and Sharpe are fantastic
Didn't they just say the warriors needed KD more than KD needs them?
I know
As a Celtics fan, I am not MATOUR enough to watch all of the Celtics/Kyrie videos being uploaded today
The Celtics slander is on 20 today smh.......
Thank you Chris!!!!
We’ll gladly take the luxury here in NYC
I've always thought that. When Durant went down Curry got off!
This is more about Houston choking than the Warriors being able to sustain without KD. Harden was lackadaisical AF after KD left the game. I was watching this man literally walking on the court every possession, constantly deferring, and not getting shots up.
duh....he took 16 shots...3 in the 4th..wtf man for a guy who hit 10 and was a scoring machine this year avg. 36...he just took the 4th off and it shows...
Looking good Chris! Went to highschool with him ( Holy Name '87)
Man you can not expect them to adapt on the fly mid game and cover for a player like KD, or Klay or Curry for that matter... even Draymond who people don’t value as much as they should.
Can I ask how they proved this? Without Kd on this team the Rockets might be up 3-1 rn.
Key word “might be”.. the thing about hypotheticals is that there’s always more than 1 way to look at things and realistically u can’t just plug the performances that curry and klay had playing bad with kd and say that’s how they’d play w/o him bc the entire teams plays a lot better w/o him
Deyknw A bad shooting night is a bad shooting night. Point blank. You take 1 factor aka Kd out of that equation Houston wins. You can try to defend Golden State all you want that’s just the truth. I don’t believe the games would be blowouts or anything like that bc Steph is still Steph and Klay can get it cooking whenever but if you take The Warriors without Kd and put them against the Rockets in a full 7 games I don’t see how they win. That’s what I’m alluding to but you are right there is multiple ways to look at the situation.
@@superzayman1 But whats the point of what if's and mights, like he said anyone can say that, and anyone can say without KD the team would have still won since they have proved they play very good without KD in the game, they just went to Houston and beat that same team by like 20 without KD in March, so all this ohh they cant beat Houston without KD is just talk, and means nothing until the ball is thrown up
warriors win game 1 and 5 at home by 1 shot basically each within the last minute and really 30 seconds with kd and now warriors fans: we winning game 6 in hous without him....this is why their leaving..dumb fans....like they outscored the rockets by 2 with harden and cp3 not doing anything late...relax...that was 14 minutes...did people watch game 7 last year without cp3 the regular season game without harden the rockets won in oracle or this series?..the rockets can beat them easily....tucker is on klay..unless someone else steps up its curry vs harden and I take harden so now its team vs team give me the rockets by 10+..not even close ...the warriors wins vs them this year are by 2 4 6 and 5 with kd in 3 of those games and boogie in the other he missed in the regular season and boogie had 27 in his absence and they won by 2....yeah...think about that...
superzayman1 they should’ve been up 3-1 with kd. The got robbed of game 1
*Playoff Harden in full effect*
I think that is the bigger takeaway from this series
@@joshhighwind9886 If KD doesn't come back and Rockets doesn't win, it will hit Harden's legacy hard!!!
@@thegreatone24 100%
He scored 31 points on 10/16 in game 5, and has averaged 35 points a game this series, and 36 against the Jazz, which was his regular season average so...
@@joeziadan miss me with the Jazz series. Don't brush under the game he went 3/20 and still won the game cuz Jazz couldn't buy a shot.
You can look at the records w/ and w/o KD, but you gotta also look at who they played.
Never underestimate the heart of a champion. facts.
If KD doesn’t come back, the Warriors won’t three-peat. This Warriors team isn’t what they were BEFORE KD arrived.
I strongly disagree with Chris’s assessment about this year’s warriors. Their bench is poo, Steph and Klay can’t afford to have bad games if Houston plays well. Durant was that anchor in that you could always count on him to get you points.
This year yes he has been the man
Nicholas Simmons Thomas The regular season is different from the playoffs lol
@@nicholassimmonsthomas8504 no he did not tell you those wins come in the regular season.
@@yurhomi4478 THANK YOU SOMEBODY WAS actually LISTENING TO THE BS
Yurhomi 24 they don’t want to accept that. GSW was also 5-1 in the playoffs without Steph Last year. I’ll take playoffs numbers than stats in the regular season against some mediocre teams.
"The icing just became the cake"
That's a strong line, fellas.
Broussard is the real GOAT.
Actually agree with them on this. If you were watching this game live, the entire vibe of the game changed when KD got hurt, and it really did feel like we were watching old Golden State again.
Shouldn't you at least wait for game 6 before you say that cause Durant still dropped 20+
0:00 When your mom wakes you up for school
Been saying this . This is why I say Broussard is the goat 🐐
Thank you Broussard!!! I've been saying this!!!!!
One quarter of basketball proved this point? REALLY!?
Look up warriors record without KD since he joined
I can tell you don't watch basketball at all. Probably watch these videos and highlights an call yourself a fan of the NBA. Smh
Thomas Veal It's Broussard, don't expect greatness. He's weak like this, just says anything. Wait until next game
Thomas Veal Lol Media.
@@treysimpson9279 I will look at tomorrow's game and see how badly the gsw will lose without KD
Totally agree!!
Chris is speaking facts. He’s the smartest in the basketball media
Nah. Ryan hollins is.
These Warriors without KD are NOT that 73-9 team. They're missing solid bench players like McGee, D West, Barbosa, younger Shaun/Iggy, fresh legs for Curry/Dray/Klay. They depleted their depth to get KD and Cousins and now they're both out.
mcgee and west weren't on that 2016 team..you are an idiot fraud.....barnes and a younger bogut and iggy and shaun and like you said barbosa were but you missed both speights ezili and clark were and that was the bench mostly who did anything of note...
@@razkable yeah, I know they weren't. But they still missing them...
@@razkable ezeli, barnes and speights were negatives in the 2016 finals, that's why I didn't mention them. But you're right even them could help now.
I agree with Chris. Golden State does not need KD. They can win without him.
They barely played 18 mins without him... Let's see what happens over a full 48
Kd still had 20 points in that half and they were up 14... And had 22 points with 3 mins left... They barely kept up with the rockets for 15 mins..
Like I said, Golden State does not need KD to win.
Fransez jacques Marasigan how’d that go
I just want to see splash brothers one more time before the season ends
Thank you chris!
I remember the Numbers said The Raptors are better without Kawhi..
The Warriors showed us they can win 1 quarter. But can they win a full game.
I am a shamed of our fans. I'm a Warrior's fan and I am ashamed of our fans for saying Curry plays better without Durant and how we don't need Durant. Some times I think it is not genuine Warriors fans saying these things. Probably some Lebron worshippers pretending to be Warriors fans. Because we all know Curry and Klay are NOT going to play well for all 4 rounds, and we all know our bench sucks. Durant we desperately need.
NBA FAN lol how did you find a way to blame lebron ?
@Cyrill TreyGod he doesn't make the offense worse. This narrative against KD man smh.
Klay and Steph literally has been getting so many open shots this postseason. We know when they get going they are pretty much unbeatable.
But what happens if they both can't make shots? They have KD to fill in that offensive void when they both are shooting horribly.
KD moves the ball all the the man is averaging 6 assist per game.
They prolly can at home in game 7 but not the finals or against denver
Just me or did skip just say the same thing Broussard said? Just more beating around the bush! 🤭
“Chinchilla fur in a rolls Royce”🤣🤣
Even if Klay and Steph get 75, they need points from elsewhere. It used to come from one of the best benches in the league
capela said he wants the warriors again but dude is playing scared.
I swear bro
They played a quarter without him imagine a whole game
Hope you right
they scored 30 in the 4th without him..lets see them do that 4 times cause they need 120 to win in game 6...
Skip's snarl was legendary
Warriors adapt better than any team. All of their starters have been out at some point this season.
Man I remember when the warriors were the underdog and everybody was cheering for them... then overnight they became the villains all my Bay Area cats know exactly what I'm talking about
Axum ገብረመድሂን it’s because of all the wave of fake fans they got
It’s because of that hater bandwagon too
They were already villains before kd came, last time they were underdogs was in 2015 when they beat the Cavs
It happened when KD. I used to like Ws but KDs move was so weak I began disliking them.
They became the villain when they beat Bron the first time and at the same time changed how basketball was played. 2015 they were saying how The Warriors ruined basketball with their 3 point shootouts.
If he wasn't in for the 2-1/2 quarters he was in, I don't think they would've won that game. They clearly need him in my opinion.
💯💯💯💯
KingCo Anderson all speculation thats yo opinion
Clearly you don’t pay attention to the past! KD is not necessary
Lerone Williams the bench isn’t as deep but I still think they can pull it off
and game 6???? whats the excuse for that one
Chinchilla seats in a Rolls Royce 😭😭😭 Shannon and your sayings slay me 💀
Klay Thompson shooting more than 20x and not just scraps will always be the reason the warriors win. He's unstoppable
I'm with you Chris, Durant is a luxury not a necessity. Warriors can win without Durant, Durant needs the Warriors more than the Warriors need Durant.
CP3 is struggling, but Harden only scored 4 points
Two game 7s. One in the east & one in the west. Let’s go ‼️
Last time I remember Warriors won a game in Houston not too long ago without KD, and Houston has a healthy Paul and Harden.
I was at that game, too! It was close but Warriors pulled it out.
This is like the only time I agree with skip bayless
lmao i love how they flip flop everyday everyone knows kd is the reason they are back to back champs
And Steph and Klay are the only reason KD has a couple of rings instead of 0.
That was then and this is now!
To me its prove that the best chemistry wins over having the most potent individual players. I think they got this right. Both versions of these Warriors teams are great, but they look very different. This is not a knock on KD and maybe without him they would not have won the 2 chips, but they certainly looked more pleasing to the eye and a different flow to thei play begore he got there.
KD isn’t a luxury in the sense of making the Warriors better.The West got “Way Better” after their first championship without KD. Just my opinion.
