Rockets were TOp 5 in Defense for 82 games and were built to play the warriors. Not sure why everyone wants to keep pretending otherwise.

The rockets match up well with the Warriors defensively. They can switch off ball when necessary and do so often, so alot of those screens they set to get curry and klay open looks dont work because they end up being useless screens. SHuts down their off ball movement and kills the ball movement since no ones open,…

I enjoyed watching Lebron toy with his Son Demar and Kyles team.

I can say, if I didnt have a team I was a fan of, I probably would agree. I’m a Big rockets fan, but if I was anything other than a Hou/GS/Cle/Bos fan I’d be bored out of my mind. IN fact I have barely watched Cle/Bos.

Like everything else on this Blog, this post did not age well.

Gotta post these hot takes man, Alberts gonna ride with the “Rockets suck” narrative till the wheels fall off.

atleast you dont disappear after these posts like Albert. I’m sure he wont have a Hou/GS article until the next time GS does well.

This is just as good as Hardens attempted Murder of Draymod in the first half. How he wasnt arrested on spot I’ll never figure out

Simple answer is, in Game 2 they made shots, Gmaes 1 and 3 they missed shots. Go watch game 3's first quarter..They missed 7-8 layups alone. This leads to harden and paul trying to get themselves goin to keep things from collapsing and they managed to keep it close most of the second. third quarter their lack of…

Well contested yes, But misses by some usually good finishers in Harden, Paul, Gordon and Capela. All in all, 12 Missed layups is alot, Capela HAS to finish his, and So does Harden and Paul.

Eh, if they dont miss those 12 layups in the first half that they missed (most were makeable) then the warriors probably need another time out. Rockets got shell shocked though, warriors went on a end of 1st run and they seemed to not want to fight back too hard. Game 4 will decide the series.

Pretending that you weren’t before?

Series isnt over, I give you credit for sticking with it though.

Its ok to be wrong. No need to double down.

Yea, they are currently still higher, and using playoff averages i think would help.

I mean they were number 5 in defense..all season long , and have been top 3 during the playoffs in Defense. So...its not a stretch.

Considering their performances in game 1, this is them reverting to the mean. Looking at their 2 wins in the regular season against GS, tucker, Mba moute, ariza and gordon usualy do well against GS.

I’m actually enjoying this. The comments are great.

Shitty Take,
