Lakers just ran into the ultimate Laker killers. Everyone just needs to stop making excuses for Lakers.
Watch the game. The Lakers stopped going to AD in the first quarter. You have a child's understanding of basketball. When you don't utilize your best options, then you aren't playing to win. Is that really so difficult to understand? Should I use smaller words? Maybe some pictures?
No one is making excuses for the Lakers. It's all about planning for the next game. If we go into Game 2 thinking we played Game 1 perfectly, then they'll catch us off guard with their adjustments. That's why it's useful to anticipate potential adjustments and prepare for them, and one of the most obvious adjustments is more AD touches. Tipjar wager. If the Rockets sweep the Lakers, I'll donate $50. If the Rockets don't sweep, you donate $10. What do you say?
Sweep??? LOL I would love for Rockets to sweep but I dont make fallacious statements like you. But i will make tip jar bet, Rockets will win series. Unlike you, I do not overrate AD or excuse his ability to take over a game by blaming his teammates and coaches.
0-26 when AD defended by PJ. Even Lakers homers are not as blinded or block headed as you. Your take reeks, just like you do.
Then don't use phrases like "ultimate Laker killers". Again, your poor reading comprehension rears its uninformed head. Before the playoffs started, I bet that the Rockets would win the championship. I'm not going to bet against them.
Tucker did a fantastic job, and I hope he keeps it up, but you're reading too much into it. Look at the current Nuggets/Clippers game. After game 1, it looked like the Clippers had Jokic/Murray figured out....not so much in game 2.
Agree with this and now they don’t have the assets. It was incredibly stupid and they put so much focus on Kawhi and it’s like they were on tilt and signed Green to soften the blow.
Your words belie your professed actions. And yes, Rockets are the ultimate Lakers killer. That does not mean I think they win every game, but it would not surprise me if they did. That is how much I believe in this Rockets system vs. Lakers.
Leborn won several championship before. He always form a team with 3 people who can have 20 plus score and 10 plus rebounds or assists players. Now he can form big 2 only, every team power is even. I dont think he can get any championship after KD, Curry come back, because of his age. He still has power to get ref ft Actually kawaii and KD are the same, they have 4 to 5 great players around them for champion like Duncan, Curry. Raptors can tie eith Celtics without Kawaii. They are overpower actually. This year becomes balance. Most team gets 2 all stars only. Clippers is different from other teams because of their bench power Harrell and Lou Williams. Clippers settings look like popo era team using Duncan, Kawaii, Ginobili and parker, it is a bit strong for their team.
Since I know critical thinking isn't your strong suit, let me remind you that this is a Rockets site. I can believe in them while still being aware of the obstacles ahead. I don't take things for granted. And since I know that reading comprehension isn't your strong suit, if you say something is the "Ultimate Lakers killer", then unless we plan on not using it, the implication is a sweep. Seriously, go read a book.
Probably not. Given your many, many shortcomings, you probably have a low self-esteem. I wouldn't want you to have a mental breakdown.
I know you weren't talking to me but I'll say it, yes, this is difficult to understand. What do you mean? Are you suggesting the lakers weren't trying to win the game? What does it mean that a playoff team in the playoffs is "not playing to win"?
You really should take your L and move forward. Own up to your mistakes, it builds character. Again, Lakers did not stop feeding AD because they refused to play winning basketball. Lakers stopped feeding AD because Rockets adjusted defensively and feeding AD in the post was a losing proposition. PJ fronting AD and/or pushing him out of paint. Harden pushing AD from elbow closer to help defender in corner.
