Rule 4: The first six minutes of the second half […]

Aftermath of Game 5 in Denver :
In the fifth game in Houston, they got somewhat physical with Kevin Durant and no one said a word. In the last game between Denver and Golden State in Denver, Curry got bumped on a cut to the basket and the reaction was vastly different. First, the coach […]
