    Kawhi has never been able to guard him, Harden flat out kills him. But you're thinking, why did they let such a **** series happen.

    Same reason OKC are going to have to win 8 v 5, it's about a Spurs v Heat rematch.

    Houston - we never get the breaks - great players but they can't both stay healthy, great defense, but they can't score enough. Thin bench etc etc.

    Great players- but terrible coaching and terrible defense.

    It is always something.

    Heck even with the dream's 2 titles- I'm constantly reminded by others that Jordan retired:mad::mad:

    Why can't we have a Phil Jackson and players lining up to take a pay cut, and years of dominating play and championships galore!

    imagine if ginobli or parker did the let-my-man-blow-by-but-reach-around type of defense.

    matthews and batum don't look as smooth when they're actually bothered on offense.

    McFail

    Blazers make small run to cut lead from 29 to 22 points. Pop calls timeout to make adjustments and stem momentum. Rockets up 17 points, McFail pulls starters, stops his own teams momentum and waits till Blazers take the lead to call timeout

    I'm putting Parsons, Harden's and Jones' defensive deficiencies on McHale.

    Wow....where did they find this guy? Baynes coming from nowhere to have a fantastic game. The Spurs have a ridiculous bench...
