    Lowe made some good points on ISO vs Ball movement. Rockets made ISO ball the most efficient ever. Of course they will keep utilizing it. Steph Curry ISOed against a cross dribbling and three draining James Harden is Steve Kerr's worst nightmare. The only playoff loss the Warriors had in the last 3 years was against a ISO heavy LeBron/Kyrie.:eek:

    How does the guy like Mike Greenberg keep his job? You would think even a casual fan knows more basketball than he does!:rolleyes:

    Shoot, the only guy worth a damn @The Cat doesnt get a thread for his opinion!

    @DaDakota and @tinman and @basketballholic all deserve their own entire forums.

    While I agree and am pretty tired of ClutchFans devolving into just a collection of hot takes- a video from someone like Zach Lowe, who clearly knows basketball much better than people like Cowherd or Bayless, is actually worthwhile to listen to.

    They barely talked Rockets. A fire alarm went off then they went to the next segment.

    ISO Russ couldn't do it. ISO KD couldn't do it. Harden is the FINAL hope.

    Love. Absolutely love, how the fire alarm somehow cut the Rockets vs. Warriors segment short just when Lowe was going to make Greenbriar look stupid on his dud comments.

    Genius ESPN studios absolutely genius on your end.

    I just never watch ESPN clips, but I like and respect Zach Lowe and his opinion.

    So I watched.

    And man is ESPN still pretty much trash. Lol...

    Fire alarms going off.

    Some weird stats on harden defending certain players.

    Some how 8 shot attempts is a good sample size.

    Apparently Durant owns him on who knows how many attempts.

    Harden is only good at defense because of better defenders around him.

    He was at the bottom of defenders and could only go up. Saying he is better isn’t saying much.

    No passes equals bad offense.

    Blah blah blah

    Just another horrible experience.

    At least Lowe was eloquent enough in his discussion to make this worth it. Even if he took warriors in 6, I know his opinion came from a place of intelligence.

    The others? Just blah blah blah.

    That was stated in the post I quoted... KD, Russ & Harden have something unique in common. ANYWAYS.

    media conspiracy

    The more we win, the more fire alarms there will be in the studios, so they can go on to the next segment.

    Producer pulls the fire alarm right when Lowe starts to praise the Rockets.

    People here if want to watch this type of videos, they can just youtube them with "rockets" and filter it with "latest". The videos are all there.

    OP, please post the videos that you feel worthwhile for discussion. Otherwise, we all know how to find them. Also, please do provide your thoughts about the discussion so we can see what you want us to talk about. Thanks.
