Would it have killed D’Antoni to go for mid-range J’s... to tell Harden to attack the basket and drive, score and get to the line... to post-up Capela... anything after 14 missed ones?
How do you keep trying the exact same thing over and over again and not see as an experienced coach that it’s not working. His ONLY trick is ‘just shoot’? In a Game 7?
What were the Assistant Coaches saying?

Time and time again he completely shrinks in the playoffs. Remember when Josh Smith had to save the Rockets with a huge 4th quarter as Harden sat on the bench? Or 2017 playoffs where again he disappeared. Dude needs a sports psychologist.This brehs
They would’ve smashed the Nuggets in April with 86-124 with the same looks
Harden is a Regular GOAT.. I meant, he’s a Regular Season GOAT... hell maybe a 1st Rnd GOAT... but when that spotlight hits..

Everyone knows youre more likely to get a foul on a 3point shot attempt than you would driving to the basket.Yo! If you take 27 3s in a row...I have to ask WTF and WhereTF is the coaching? It gets no stupider than that.
You do know you are more likely to get a foul call from attacking the basket than hoisting up 3s right.

that had to be the lowest scoring ECF game ever.

Someone must've missed those awful ass Pistons/Pacers games in 2004![]()
Clint Capella was 9 of 10 and Gordon was able to get to the rim at will.
Play to shoot 50 threes not to win the game brehs![]()
Count on ariza, Gordon, and Tucker instead of Klay Steph and Steph brehs.
fukk Draymond GOOFY ass

lol, this is why that website is the greatest, people can't just straight up lie anymore. Winning team shot 32.9% in the deciding game. As bad as the Rockets looked, they still shot 40% on the night.
Just need to accept that these teams now are better.![]()




I was at the bar wondering wtf was going on. You feed that nikka Capella until it stops. With this nikka Kerr refusing to give any center minutes, it made no sense to revert back outside.

This, I definitely agreed with. Even though the Rockets weren't getting the foul calls, they were killing them on the inside and they abandoned a working strategy and shot 3's thinking they could win a shootout with GS. If you take 15 of those missed threes and take them inside the free throw line and they only make 45% of those attempts they still win the game.
If half of those attempts were 2's (say 14) and they made half of them, they would've won by 5.
Listen to analytic nerds and miss the finals brehs
