I don’t enjoy watching this offense either but it produces and that’s with slow starts by our best players, harden and Gordon’s. Just wait til their shooting comes back. You a fool if you think they goin be shooting below 30% from three the entire season. Even Clint started out slow. Dude wast getting any playing time the first weeks of the season. They’ll get better but D’Antoni ain’t coaching shyt. He’s the most useless coach of all the playoff team. We did a rank the playoffs coach’s on clutchfans and we all voted D’Antoni 8th in the West. Dude wants to go to go smaller and small but that shyt don’t work if you ain’t goin outwork/outrun the opposition.
Houston might be the only team in the league can drop a center out the lineup and actually get slower. Tucker is slower than his opposition at the any position in the floor. Harden is slower than his opposition. Gordon will turn it over if he dribbles more than twice and so will rivers. If harden and Westbrook on the floor together were undersized and underman cuz harden barely crossing halfcourt before he stands there watching Westbrook’s run the offense 4on5.

I don’t know what to expect but I’m more suspect than optimistic. House is the biggest plus. If Houston wants to go small so bad why the fukk don’t we resign Faried and that nigguh Ben mclemore is a bum. Sacramento should donate a draft pick to every team in the league drafting this bum I can’t stand his ass. This nigguh ain’t got shyt on Gerald GreenLight. This team wants to go small but they can’t even run a fast break.


With all that said, no team in the West really impressive. Only the clipper stand out and that’s only because of Kawhi. Everybody else in the West playoffs picture is in the same level as Houston. Lakers ain’t scaring nobody. That team has flaws. Portland ain’t shyt and won’t ever be shyt unless major injuries happen to other team in the West. Biggest pretenders in the league and that’s the way @Serious love it, ole sucka

We know exactly what to expect from Houston. It's just a matter of how flawed the los angeles teams are, to be frank.

No matter what round the Rockets are in, Harden in this undisciplined D'Antoni system will have to do everything on offense while everyone is a stagnant spot up shooter. Gordon will shoot well some games, shoot trash others, but can be counted on to dribble the ball off his foot always.

Capela hasn't improved, so we know he's gonna turn p*ssy in at least 1 round, maybe more. I don't know what to say about Westbrook... but i easily envision a playoff where Harden is again gassed, struggling, or out of it and Westbrook is trying to put the team on his back by clanking 18 footers... all while our deficit in a crucial game 6 grows bc we also can't defend and Capella is too p*ssy to secure a rebound.

Now with that said, the only west team in the last 2 years that could take advantage was GS. Had to play perfect against them and we could never sustain that level of discipline. If the final form of these LA teams require similar discipline from us, we're screwed.

But if 1 or both are still shakey (i know both aren't healthy or fully in sync yet), then yea Houston can beat anyone in undisciplined arcade basketball. Not really concerned about the other teams.

Neither are we, fortunately
