”I will give all the credits to Houston where they are due ..., BUT ...” I can’t believ these idiots getting paid millions of dollars for trolling.
SAS is not a Rockets fan. He is a Harden fan. He will give Harden credit whether Rockets win or lose but thats about it. Remember, this is the same clown that picked Lakers to be better than Rockets this season lulz... They must be adding some crack to dem Cheeze doodles.
10 millions dollars a year for SAS, that's some series money. No wonder Cuban once said ESPN has the best resource to do actual basketball analysis/analytics. Sadly, that's doesn't make them profit, SAS does.
Want respect? Finish the job this time. That’s the only way to change the narrative. If the media would bother to do any research, they would realize these are two evenly-matched teams, and the Rockets have a winning record against the Warriors since the beginning of last season.
Compared to these other guys at least SAS isn't hoping for us to get swept. I feel like he's still a fan of basketball and hopes for it to go 7 and for it to be dramatic. Some of these other guys are literally hoping for us to get swept and embarrassed. I'm glad that isn't going to happen.
What I think he is thinking, is that Durant is so dominant, Houston has no chance. So he's standing strong that Golden State should be up 4-0 and that Golden State will win this. He's become increasing confident Golden State has this inspite of our ability to even it up. It's a fair opinion, but Houston is literally one game away from going up 3-2, and at that point, the tide could turn on one hot shooting night.
