That game 5 performance before the hammy was stuff of lengends. Literally willing shots into the basket! Incredible! He Destroyed that “Chris Paul is a playoff choker” narrative the way he played.
Bob sura highest among this cast. Omg that guys pure grit but alas again injuries and old age got in the way.
Should not question the heart of any player on this Rockets roster. We lost to GSW in 7 but they gave everything they had. Proud of them.
One thing I would to add is put cp3 on minutes restriction. You can't play this guy 40 + minutes a game too injury prone. This injury was waiting to happen with that 7 man rotation. If didn't happen against the warriors. It would happen against the cavs.
Interesting thing about such a "deep" roster was that the majority of the team is on wrong side of 30 and need restricted minutes for max efficiency. But roster would have expanded against Cavs to include Nene and Joe. Neither guy matched up well against GSW. Not having Luc or BW also shortened rotation.
