Rockets were better off with Warriors winning more games this year.... and/or House never leaving. I really think Harden will lose MVP... behind some flimsy things.
Rockets like GS are in a league of their own just like last year. I’m not worried about any team but GS. If we lose to any team that’s not GS then it’s cause of something we did not the other team. We’re too good we always have the best player every time we step on the court we’re too deep and we have a lot of shooters. Our defense is actually good again (surprise surprise finally healthy) Some of you guys have to much faith in the okc and spurs as being good teams. and not enough faith in the Rockets. Who freaking cares about the jazz spurs okc those teams arnt even going to win 50 games. Iv never seen so much hype for sub 50 win teams as if their even a threat. They all would get beat in 5. Rockets were in 2nd to last place 25 games in. 45 game later we are in 3rd place and have a top 5 record in the nba. Relax nobody is playing better basketball than us when healthy, maybe GS but that’s it. Rockets are stacked.
i am not really worried even about gs...only the refs can stop the rockets, in fact not even refs cant touch us if we dont sabotage ourselves..harden, i am looking at you...
The more GSW can't get it together with Durant in the lineup, the more I want to face them in the 2nd round. Not to say I advocate engineering a seeding, but rather to say I think the Warriors (much like the '95 Rockets) might get better as the playoffs proceed, and more ripe for losses early.
I didnt watch any of the games today, but from what I see in this video and the incident with Curry against the ref on the disagreement of his call and contact with Patty Mills, there was obviously a contact. This is purely naive, Steph. Pointing at any ref other than that one, like Scott Forster or Tony Brothers you'd get a T(-ech)!
Harden was never going to win MVP as long as Giannis was leading the best team in the league. We needed the Bucks to cool off and they never did, so props to them. Giannis is deserving.
If you head over to r/Thunder - as much as I don't want to face OKC in the first round their fans REALLY don't wan to face the Rockets, lol.
LOL! I've been on the thunder subreddit all morning. Just kind of browsing through to see what the fans have been saying about Russell's and Paul's performances lately. They really are in a panic. I almost feel kind of bad. But yeah, they definitely don't want any part of us in the playoffs.
Exactly. That's why it was better for Warriors to win. I know everyone likes when they struggle, but it was a longshot for us catching them. Raptors' wetting the bed didn't help either.
