People have looked like deer in the headlights for two games and then snap out of it and become productive. The alternative was less rotation players being used and exhaustion bouncing us. Neither good possibly; but young House getting battle proven pays bigger dividends down the line. House vs Warriors goes a long way for his esteem.
House was the player you play. I’ve seen vets play like they are deer in the headlights.....some adapt by halftime some take longer. Coaches also can be clueless for a half or complete series. We agree that we disagree. I can bring up House numbers as a starter during the season and the first round vs Utah. They were good. Your opinion is he was bad in two games vs the Champs. Laid an egg. What’s to say House performed admirably this regular season and lay an egg again......because it’s the playoffs. Coaches need to instruct and tell a player like House to slow things down (last season vs the champs).....now we need to go thru that stage again. It’s called coaching.
i definitely disagree. minutes ain't given. they're earned. especially for a player like him house looking the way he did did nothing to earn more time. he was given the opportunity and looked like trash in all of it
If we had played the Warriors last year in the WCFs the season couldve gone a lot different. Clippers are relying on one star with a long term health condition and another one prone to injuries. The later you play them the more likely they're not at full health
He was a plus 3 in game one. Durant/Warriors got more rebounds per game with House sitting than when he was there. Only played 5 minutes in game two. Every player needs minutes in the playoffs to improve. Even the great M J had to learn to trust his teammates and LeBron had to learn to be more selfish The sooner they experience it the better. Sitting House got us bounced easier vs the Warriors.
what's funny is the less minutes he got and the more the rockets played shumpert the better the rockets played. That tells you all you need to do how well house was contributing sitting house gave houston a better chance. he made houston worse by playing
Game 1 Durant 19.2 pts Game 2 Durant 18.1 pts Game 3 Durant 34.6 pts Game 4 Durant 25.3 pts Game 5 Durant 11.7 pts......Rockets exhausted and done for by this time. Yeah let’s blame House in games 4 & 5 ...He didn’t play in those games dummy. You want to keep looking dumb. I can do this all day.
why is durant's name even being mentioned. he has nothing to do with this. might want to relax with the name calling. I didn't get personal but you seriously don't want to go that route
oh. so the rockets didn't win game 3 and 4 when shump played ~20 min in each and house played exactly 0. cool anyone that actually watched the series knows shump contributed in big moments for the rockets to win
