Nuggets vs Rockets

Does it matter, eventually the Rockets have to play the Lakers.

 

Now that the Rockets are out, I'm not invested in any scenario. I don't dislike the Lakers or Clippers as much as I hated GSW. Last couple years, when the Rockets lost to the Warriors, I just stopped watching the playoffs.

My shoulders permanently shrugged

 

This team would have loss 4-1 vs either LA team and probably in 6 to Denver. This roster sucks and the coaching was non existent. This team isn’t very good.

 

It’s truly sad when u see Denver of all teams who nobody takes them seriously and got defeated by Portland last year and who really don’t have a superstar is going in to two game 7’s after being down 1-3. You got to admire the fight in them. The only times I saw The Rockets fight hard during the Harden era in the playoffs when they were down to the Clippers in that legendary game 6 and the 2018 series against Golden State to take the 3-2 lead.

 

Nuggets are better than us.

 

Who CHOKED more the Rockets or the clippers?

 

I know ol’ god Kawhi didn’t just choke harder than Harden ever has! Somebody tell me how this happened.

Giannis exposed...Kawhi choking

Can we get a Lebron choke job for the trifecta?!?

 

Rockets didn't choke. Can't choke when no one expects you to win against the Lakers.

No one expected the Nuggets to beat the Clippers.

 

I wonder if Leonard and George will get the same amount of criticism for losing by 20 points to Denver as Harden did the Rockets

 

Maple curry and Jokic has more heart, killer instinct and SKILL than our entire team combined

 

That title for him is so overrated. The Raptors almost made it to the Eastern Conference Finals. When Lebron leaves, his team wins the lottery.

 

Nuggets play truly like a team, even with two stars and several guys can step up due to more touches, cuts, off the ball movement and several ball handlers able to pass it around. I'd take Murray over Harden or Westbrook any day. A guy who moves off the ball and doesn't need the ball constantly to be effective. They are better than us, as I've said before, and it's just true. They have a lot more versatile guys and when you play like a team, that helps.

 

If we are same team players as cp3 era previous year, we can beat nuggets for sure.

 

I'd say just because we had a real center that may be true. If CP3 was on this small ball team we still would have given up rebounds and second chance shots being dominated at the rim. Probably even more without Russ.

 

Here is my all Choke Team

James Harden

Russell Westbrook

Giannis Antetokounmpo

Paul George

Kawhi Leonard

 

first round exit fur shure B

 

Add Melo and Kawhi to that... I'm beginning to think Kawhi's chokejob being masked by other players during his time with Spurs and Raptors.

 

And the coach of my all Choke Team is "DOC CHOKE JOB RIVERS"

 

His 1st title + finals mvp was overrated too.
He was the spurs best player but it was more like he was 1a with Duncan, Parker, and Ginobli being 1b, 1c and 1d.
I mean Lebron SMOKED him for like 18 or 20 points in the 1st quarter alone of the elimination game.

He is a great player but not atg.
I root for him to lose though, because the more 'chips he wins the worse it makes the Morey trade look.
