I get so frustrated when I see a team exploit a hard double like that. We never did. Always leads to a great look. Always.
im punching the air over here. Nobody was cutting when Harden was doubled. That **** was so frustrating! it made no sense. suns just sprinting to the open area getting buckets.
You mentioned this, but the suns really do play the best version of harden ball. Booker is always quick to make the right simple pass, guys are constantly cutting to the middle for wide open midrange, ayton is the lob threat. We had the team for this.
Yeah, Booker is just hoping using his whole bad of tricks. It always felt like Harden was trying to prove he could beat the world with the same move over and over. It felt MDA was coaching the same way.. smh.
Handsome doctor provides another explanation for Chris Paul's injury since the official explanation makes no sense when we watch the video. Apparently, just a stinger that Paul shouldn't have much of a problem with, but could be a sign of something more serious such as weak nerve endings. In other words, perfect excuse to play less or worse. Oh, Dr. Phil will provide a similar explanation for LeBron's overreaction to his brutal fall.
Yeah. It was total stubbornness IMO. From the front office down. Morey wanted to prove he was smarter than everyone, Harden wanted to prove he could do it “his” way. Same with Diantoni. They chose ego over everything else.
The Rockets were allergic to the areas inside the 3pt line. So they had to stay around the arc no matter what. If they cut to the middle, they'd get a seizure or something.
Cp3 and Booker should have been Harden and Cp3 if we had a competent coach who knew something more than let Harden and Cp3 figure it out. Lakers are sorely missing Dwight tbh I couldnt understand why they let him go sure they were getting Marc Gasol but Dwight provided a diff dimension with his physicality and athleticism. Maybe Dwight didnt wanna sign with Klutch Sports or w/e that was a grade A dumb move.
Meh. Look dude just got injured again. That Cp3 ship has sailed imo whether we kept him or traded him it wouldnt make a diff in terms of title contention. In the playoffs when your guy making 41M is old and just a hair over 6 ft you aint winning a ring IMO.
