    Rockets should be underdog regardless of home court.

    If healthy Rockets do any worse than 6 games CFs.. shame.

    You are overthinking it. Kenny is just stating his opinion. Maybe he has pressure to come across as impartial but nothing he said was that out there. He has a point that LAC, OKC, SA - all are worse compared to years past when they lose Paul, Durant, and Leonard.

    But I haven't seen anything where he says the Rockets don't have a chance. That's not his style anyway.

    The MVP is a media award. It goes to the best story of the year. It doesn't have to do with who is the most deserving in reality.

    Let's be real....

    Kenny went OUT OF HIS WAY to say the BARE MINIMUM of Rockets praise. Just saying.

    The true Outcome will be decided on the court.


    *appears the West's winning % is equal, if not greater than, last season. Claiming lesser competition was dodge-ball, low-ball. Dodge-Low

    Probably right about Rockets won't win if Harden only scores 22 (would need 30 from CP3). Warriors are human, they can lose

    I am so sick of Kenny Smith
    HE legit always anti Rockets

    Listening to his snipes about HArden is just gotten old

    Esp since he did not get the Coaching job
    (How about he be an assistance somewhere first?
    or Coach anywhere somewhere

    He's obviously butthurt because Les didn't sign him, and thank god he didn't, one McHale was enough.
