    Man Kenny is sucking on the Warriors! Only team that can produce easy shots and called the Warriors The NBA Champions for 2018, what an a hole!

    Exactly. Respect the Worriers for who and what they are. But I’m glad Harden won’t be handcuffed at the rim anymore.....at least not to the degree of having Gobert there. Seriously Rockets had trouble playing “their game” this entire series. CP3s elite mid game gave the Rockets the versatility they never had and badly needed.

    Klay and Steph are ridiculous shooters. But I’m really happy Rockets are DONE with playing the Jazz. Jazz are tough and they have the ability to make it a real grind. The big takeaway here is Rockets don’t have to grind against the Jazz for a 6 or 7 game.

    Rockets/Harden will be ready. Rest and recuperate.

    I feel this upcoming matchup vs the Worriers will truly allow the Rockets to enable “Pick Your Poison”. Jazz were a hindrance.

    Nope I’m not scared. I feel like the Rockets got past a tough Jazz team that really hindered Harden from being a consistent triple threat. Rim protection is the “kryptonite”.

    Harden can deal with longer athletic players in his grill far better than at the rim.

    Honestly hate what the Warriors have done to basketball in acquiring Kevin Durant. Absolutely disgusting. If they don't lose in the WCF or the Finals it will be a dark year for basketball.

    Im going to say this again we need more from Gordon. I was trying to pinpoint why were arent as dominant and its Gordon. He's our third scoring threat and h e's not balling at all. He needs to step up this next round if we're gonna have a chance.

    I hate “Hampton 5.” They ain’t from New York. They should be called the “Cupertino 5” or some such thing.
