Game 2.. Where the first half was all thanks to him, if he didnt stick in 1st quarter Rockets would be goners..
There are 4 qtrs in a game. Overall in the two games he has underperformed offensively. His play is far from shining.
Don't you love it...finally this board is all abuzz like it's trade deadline or draft day or....playoffs. Makes me happy that we're all focused on the OKC series instead of engaging in the tiresome McFail-LOFvsLOH arguments. Rock on, Clutchfans!
Does it really matter if we get swept vs. 4-1 loss of even 4-2 loss? If we can push it to game 7, there might be some hoopla. But would Dwight Howard or CP3 more likely to come if we go out 4-1 with 3 close games coming up? Other than Howard and CP3, the Rockets playoff showing makes no difference. Every other FA is about paying the most money because they're not max worthy. And the two players talked about for trades, Love and Aldridge, would be better here regardless of playoffs.
If we are getting swept like the Bucks, then it can have long-term effect, but we played the Thunder toe-to toe in Game 2, so we have a lot of good in our future. I firmly believe the rest of the games will be hard fought, at least at home. You can book this, next year everyone will pick us to be the top 8 teams of the Western Conference.
