It will be seen like this if we beat OKC without him and he returns against the Lakers and doesn't play well or look the same in attack mode.... He'll definitely get dragged and Harden as well regardless of how he performs.
I've wondered this for years.. I've seen people on here talk about how great Jones is and I cringe every time. Jones should've been gone after the McGrady / Yao years.
We were ****ed the moment we traded CP3 for Westbrick. We are ****ed now and we’ll stay ****ed tommorow since we mortgaged our future for an inferior player. God damnit I hate Tilman!
Me personally I don't think it's nothing wrong with him. This is just an injury excuse that NBA players come up with when they are about to get they ask kick.
I thought you were going for post Covid effects theory, in that case I would have at least tried to give a serious answer.
Dude, you hate every thing about this team every year. Also, you're on record saying Harden peaked and that he's not good enough to win so what does it matter to you that we traded CP3 for Russ? EDIT: You actually complained about how we were stuck with CP3s albatross contract... http://bbs.clutchfans.net/index.php?threads/trade-harden.282771/page-79#post-12412384
It's irritating that people the bubble this way. I don't see any team going half speed. Most of the games I've watched have been competitive as hell, plus a few of the teams even got some major help with some of their players returning from bad injuries (Blazers, Pacers). A few players have been injured as well and only a few players chose to sit out the bubble, so what exactly is the problem?
Been saying Keith Jones is trash for years now. Surprisingly I always got some backlash. He started wayyyyyy back when in the 90s and I honestly wonder how much time he and his staff put into researching new trends in technology etc... for injury prevention. ??
Rockets don't want to tell you how bad this really is just like how it took them a long while to reveal he had the coronavirus.
we will have the best player in every series. James has been a beast. but he can't play 48 minutes and have 100% usage. its a team game. they have basically the same record as we do with rus, and now we don't have rus. combine that with the matchup problems they cause for us and its a recipe for an upset. of course we have a chance, I think we will win but it won't be 4-5 games anymore. it will be 6-7, and if it goes 7 I'm not sure who wins.
I have a sneaky feeling that Russ won’t play in this series. It’s probably worse than they are letting on.
