    Is there a debate whether this team is the best ever Rockets team? The teams that won the b2b championships weren't this great in terms of personnel, Dream was just transcendent as a player.

    I'm well aware that this means nothing if Rockets don't win a championship. I'm just asking the question. Greatness is of course made in the Playoffs.

    However, on paper, I think this Harden/CP lead team is arguably better than the 90's championship teams.

    *hides, ducks for cover*

    We're not this good without Harden nowhere near it.

    These comparisons are kind of stupid. Both teams are Rockets. We enjoyed one and now we're enjoying the other.

    By the way, I love how every Pelicans game thread is saturated with ads for Pelican cases.

    I disagree about it being stupid to compare. I was just comparing for conversation sake.This is a basketball forum after all. We aren't throwing one into the phantom zone.

    What are you guys talking about? You have been watching too many SAS and Max Kellerman clips. You can have a conversation without disparaging a team or person. Come on, now.

    Forget about it.

    Funny you say that. I think you where the only poster that correct me if I'm wrong you'd rather face a kwahi- less spurs than the LA clippers in the playoffs. Smh....

    Can this team come back in a playoff series down 1-3? Can they win a title as 6th seed, without home court in any round? Or are they front runners? We'll see.

    When the Harden Era is over, I hope we can say the same for Jim.

    I'm hoping this team does not put itself in a 1-3 hole. Don't need that kind of **** in my life after seeing this amazing season.
