The Rockets have a combined 314 games of playoff experience under their belt. Factor in Scola's international experience and this number is even higher. And the Blazers? 34. Half of which come from players that won't play a single meaningful minute this series. This disparity in experience was in clear display tonight. You can say whatever you want about how great the Blazers played during the season or how awesome they will be in the future, but nothing beats playoff experience. GO ROCKETS!
yea what i meant was playoff experience is the most overrated thing to judge a team example? look at rose
and guess what, mcgrady has TONS of playoff experience... and we all know what happened to him and his teamS
I think thing that stands out with the Blazers' lack of experience is their aggressiveness. With almost zero experience in the playoffs, the Blazers had no idea what would get called and how explosive they were allowed to be.
