One thing the Warriors will need for Sunday is to get in the paint a lot more. Rockets went to the free throw line 33 times. Warriors: 22 times. Rockets are younger and more athletic. Warriors are a mostly veteran team with good young talent. Warriors must play fearlessly Sunday.

Ironically the pressure will switch to the Rockets in game 7 in their own building. The test for the Warriors: can they take the Houston crowd out as the Rockets did the Warriors crowd tonight? The good news for the Warriors is that the game is less than 48 hours: no time to think about this loss.

This is about as quiet as I’ve ever heard the Chase Center when the Warriors are playing there. The atmosphere is funereal.

Granted my Knicks are in the 2d rd. Warriors have a hard task here. It is easier to close out a 3-2 lead on the road than it is at home. Much more pressure on you as the home team. And that’s manifested itself tonight for the Warriors. The home crowd pressures you even more so when it is silent.

I can’t help noticing that almost exactly a year ago against the Sixers in the NBA playoffs the Knicks won game six on the road in Philly by three points on a Thursday (May 2, 2024). Tonight in Detroit? A game six win by three points. The final score (see screenshot) was almost identical. #Knicks

By the way for the initiated, the new position Mike Waltz is in…is a demotion. And Laura Loomer pushed Trump for Waltz and Wong to leave their national security posts…

I think this will be Trump’s next national security adviser. (Or maybe this is actually Pete Hegseth drunk—or sober…)

APROPOS OF…. : You wanna laugh? Remember that Henry Kissinger, of all people, received the Nobel Peace Prize. Remember, he architected the massive bombing assaults of Cambodia under Nixon. Kissinger got the Peace Prize AFTER approving about 4,000 bombing raids on Cambodia.

Pete Hegseth should be fired for the drunken interview he did on Fox last month alone. Profoundly unqualified and unqualifiedly disgraceful.

This is a great book and the film starring Will Smith wasn’t bad either. For at least 20 years I’ve owned this book and yet I had honestly never seen that first blurb on the back of the book…until today.

So what has it been, about 200,000 people fired in these first 102 days (including many federal workers)? Musk is essentially out, too. The midterms must be a key focus. And all politics remains local.

I will bet anyone that by Memorial Day or July 4th at the latest Pete Hegseth will be fired as Defense Secretary. This is not a sucker’s bet, either.
