    Better than Giannis.

    And this is pretty much all Giannis does on offense.

    if CP3 tries something again on Harden, he needs to get confronted

    he might purposefully dive at Harden’s legs going for a loose ball and try to make it look like an accident

    I'm still upset about game 3, this series should be over tbh. All you had to do was inbound.

    Rockets win in 6 will be the theme of these bubble playoffs.

    Hopefully Dort doesn't suddenly find his shot.

    Pulled from Reddit

    The NBA is actually trying to hand the Thunder the series right now.

    Houston 84 Free Throws 118 Personal Fouls called against

    OKC 129 Free Throws 88 Personal Fouls called against

    That’s a huge discrepancy compared to the regular season.

    Houston FT per game regular season 25.5

    Houston FT per playoff game 16.9

    OKC FT per game regular season 24.9

    OKC FT per playoff game 25.8

    Houston personal fouls per game Regular season 21.9 Houston in playoffs 23.6

    OKC personal fouls per game Regular season 19.2 OKC in playoffs 17.6

    Houston is out scoring the Thunder in points in the paint as well.

    Rockets lead 202-190 in points in the paint.

    I am glad you brought that up.

    Hou needs to end this series with this game. Cant afford to mess around with a game 7 especially with the Lakers/OldLebron resting and waiting.

    Keep ignoring Dort on deffense and avoiding him on offense = winning strategy. Pick on SGA and Shroeder on offense.

    Just limit Schroder can easy win. Put the good defense on him. I think Tucker not to get and flurant foul again is fine. We can use Carroll to guard him and ask him to drive into the basket for easy 2 points of offence

    In playoff, we need defence. Actually, all players stats drop. He can play for 10 minutes for rotation and give some minutes for Carroll or prince to play. (2 to 3 minutes)
