USUAL SUSPECTS

Golden State gave a 35 point smacking to the Houston Rockets in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals last night, winning by the score 115-80 to take a demanding 3-0 series lead. From the very beginning of the game, the Toyota Center watched as the Warriors dominated all facets to state claim at an NBA Finals appearance this June. Plainly, the Rockets looked non-existing as the league MVP and company shot an impressive 45% from the field and limited the Rockets to just 33.3%. The Rockets had 14 less field goal attempts in Game 3 than their opponents, showing a lack of passion, defensive effort and morale they disappointed their fans who likely have lost all hope for the #2 seeded Rockets in this round. Until they intensify on the defensive end of the floor they will continue to become shameful footage on how the Golden State Warriors won the NBA Western Conference Finals in 2015.

The only exception to a sluggard Rockets effort in Game 3 was center Dwight Howard who gave his warranted double-double contribution with 14 boards and 14 points. Harden shot a horrid 3-16 from the field and looked helpless out there. A few error filled offensive possessions where forwards Terrence Jones and Josh Smith (4 turnovers in game) surrendered turnovers to the adversary Warriors, had fans heading for the exit before the 4th quarter had even ended. Warriors guard Stephen Curry dropped in seven three-point baskets to surpass Reggie Miller in single post-season three pointers made and forward the legacy of his MVP season in 2015. He ended the game with 40 points and a 3-0 advantage for his Golden State Warriors who are one victory away from a NBA Finals appearance barring some miraculous comeback like the one we seen from the Rockets last round. This 35 point home loss is definitely a reason to don't such an extremity though.
