Warriors player compares playoff series against the Rockets to scrimmaging in practice

Even without Stephen Curry, the Golden State Warriors easily handled their business in Game 2 of their first-round series against the Houston Rockets, winning 115-106.The Rockets, one of the most disappointing teams all season, are yet to give a commendable effort in this series, outmatched as they may be against the historically great Warriors.Going into halftime of Monday's game, Warriors sixth man Andre Iguodala was interviewed about stepping up in the absence of Curry. His answer reflects both the Warriors' incredible preparation and depth, and the lackluster nature of the Rockets, saying "It's kind of like playing a scrimmage in practice, know what I mean'""It kind of feels like playing a scrimmage in practice," Andre Iguodala said of a playoff game. pic.twitter.com/fBWXRvMlgO' Kenny Ducey (@KennyDucey) April 19, 2016Iguodala might not have meant that as a direct insult to the Rockets. He did say that in scrimmages, as the leader of the second unit, he gets the most shots.
