Will Coach D'Antoni be on the hot seat if Rockets get swept?

I believe you. We are all excited, anxious, and positive while staying realistic.

 

No one is getting traded or canned regardless of what happens this series. Everybody knows that we are playing one of the best teams in the history of the game.

 

I don’t even want to know how badly the Rockets would have to play in order to actually get swept. That would be a disappointment of the highest order. This thread is inviting bad juju, I don’t like it.

 

I don't think Rockets know what will hit them in game #1. Warriors will embarrass them and make them look silly just like they did with the Pelicans after they were so pump up and so confident having swept the Blazers. There are two reasons for this, actually three.
1. Warriors have been in Finals and have been playing under these types of pressure before, so why does it mean anything? It does....it's poise and control. It's clutch under pressure moment.
2. Rockets have never seriously dealt with the Death Lineup before....never or hardly. They will not be able to get comfortable like they did with the other teams. They're going to feel a sense of dominant and then will stay passive.
3. The Warriors game style will tire out the Rockets players because of constant movement. So they make you play hard on defense and their defense make you work also. They have already gain endurance and tested against the Pelicans by running with them, so it's not a problem for them running up and down.

 

It hard to explain, but defense and creating open shots seem to be only way i get close to them in 2k lol Other than that curry and durant splash me to death from all corners, its like playing 97 bulls on hard. imo they are champions for sure, and maybe the best created team ever.

Mike has done stellar in the regular season and playoffs, If it wasnt for the warriors, rockets probably be the dominate champs for few years in the west, like a new powerhouse, but you cant get past the warriors unless you have some sorta of ultimate game plan, where he takes the team he has and out smarts them. We have put up insane #'s this year, so maybe houston could do something insane this year..

Hmmm kinda like Mike D Suns team, couldn't get past the infamous Spurs team, but had great record. They were like the warriors too dominate and had won championships with there big 3. Go figure =)

 

This thread is bad juju, in my humble opinion.

 

@DonKnock is going to have a field day after this series

 

Doesn’t matter, division champs Brian!

 

Not at all unless you want to go back to doofus coaches like Kevin MccFail

 

Can someone tell me exactly what MDA does for us? We essentially pace-and-space or run screens to get the best ISO matchup.

Is there something else that makes him valuable?

 

Lol Sacfan bandwagonning with gsw

 

All the above...

 

No.

Harden/paul want him.

Casey wouldnt have gotten fired if lowry/derozan wanted him. It was clear things were breaking down with derozans benching and caseys comments about how the team didnt listen to him on the play where lebron hit the buzzer beater.

 

They aren't the greatest of all time ..... There were Boston Teams that had 5 HOFers and even more allstars back in the 80's.


And you cant discount the Showtime Lakers .... they were loaded , moreso than this top heavy GSW team.

Only Curry and Durant will end up as HOFers .... Green and Thompson wouldn't be what they are without Curry.

 

Reported!
