    "Rockets are attacking the same way" - Kenny Smith

    No, they arent you dumbass.

    The spacing is entirely different.

    Lakers could cover that space defensively.

    The fact he even brings up Gobert is funny. Gobert is the exact kind of center you want to play with small ball.

    Wow. TNT guys are idiots. For real. They seriously have no clue. It is embarassing.

    Shaq: "But when playing defense, doesnt the coach want you to shuffle over?"

    Kenny: "I would never come of the corners."

    Barkley: "Booker is gonna have a field day tomorrow."

    Cp has been great this year, this team would still be awesome with him. I love Russ and Im glad he's here but your takes need some adjusting...you hate on people and you never adjust your way of thinking

    "BUT WHO THEY GONNA PUT ON (insert anyone over 6'8 here)!!!"

    Meanwhile we just played arguably the best big man in the league, at home.

    Not on YOU.
    Coach gets so much crap from the likes of
    JSizzle, Roslolian, JackLordsHair, etc. . .

    I was just pointing out that the things you cited are from good coaching

    We're good

    Barkley and Shaq are fortunate they are born on the era of big man and not in this small ball lineup era. lol

    The question now is whether or not they can keep up that type of intensity night after night and if Tucker’s old man body can take the beating he’s going to take the rest of the way. We still need bodies. The buyout market is going to be huge for this team going forward.

    Charles Barkley talks so much bullshit. He said he wouldn't double team Harden. He said he would allow Westbrook and Harden to get 35 points. Has he not seen how many big 40 and 50 plus points games Harden can get when you don't double team him? When he's in his flow and isn't getting double teamed, he's literally unstoppable. There's a reason why most teams double team Harden from half court.

    "Puts a lot of pressure on Harden and RB. Both have to play well each night" - Barkley

    "But Harden only shot 10 FG" - EJ

    "Yeah but one of them has to play well each night" - Barkley

    [​IMG]

    One of AD or Lebron have to play well each night.

    One of Kawhi or PG have to play every night.

    lulz

    Great game by all players involved. Russ and Roco proving Morey right with the trades. Thabo, Rivers and House showing why they got signed. Tucker obv was MVP holding down the fort and guarding Lebron.

    Even Harden who played like crap showed up in the end, he made a statement and layed the big baby AD flat on his ass. Then he had several good stops it was amazing seeing him come alive.

    Very satisfying win. Would def watch Skip n Shannon tom to see Skip roasting Shannon about this game lmao.
