    Hate to say it but Rockets would be underdogs against both of these teams. Clippers or Warriors. If Clippers have Playoff Kawhi who seems back, then they are extremely dangerous, they might win a title tbh.

    Both teams would be extremely difficult to beat.

    Be careful what you wish for. DeMar is lethal. Zach Lavine can be explosive at any moment and Sabo is slow and steady.

    23-12 FT disparity

    don’t even need to mention for who because that’s always obvious

    Yes, but it means that we advance to the western conference finals! It’s mathematically impossible to face the Kings before, they can’t be the 7th seed

    True. The Rockets have not done well this season against Sacramento at all.

    if the rockets play even 20% like today the warriors will make mince meat of them..

    Ime is exactly the type of coach they need to get ready, so I think they'll be fine.

    It didn't matter, but they were completely out of sync. With an old vet team its fine to think that, but this team is too young, they rely on momentum a lot more
