    That was pretty much a given coming into the series. The main problem imo is their role players are making a bigger difference right now.

    I'm looking forward to the second half when Draymond literally gives the ref a Stone Cold Stunner and they're just like "eh, we already gave him one tech, not much more we can do."

    no one can guard him one on one.

    rockets refuse to double because it would leave shooters open.

    they are daring durant to score 40ppg this series and beat them by himself.

    We got 8 minutes left in the 2nd and Dray has 3 fouls, one a tech. Exploit the b1tchness of Dray this whole series.

    Ryan Anderson at the 5. I still can't get over it. Forced to go away from it in both previous series just to do it against GS.

    Gerald is sort of a "bad with the good" guy. When he's hitting those wild 3s from all over the place, that's great, but when he gets tunnel vision on offense, or is an open door on defense, it's a real downer. He's a mixed bag.

    I don't think it even matters who is on Durant, just switch, he makes those shots regardless, Rockets are playing spirited good defense, they just need to keep it close and pick their spots.
