That Houston managed to beat a soft team that imploded? Doesn't mean they're gonna fukk with the Spurs, Warriors or Thunder though:ld:
Then what was the point in saying "the Clippers threw that series away"?
To say that they may come out even, gaining scoring(streaky scoring) but losing defense. Beverly used to lock people up.
Yeah it's quite clear you don't know what you're talking about.
With Lemarcus Aldridge and David West as additions, this makes the Spurs better even considering age. Combine this with Kawai, and Green, I don't think Parker and Manu will be heavily depended on.
Do you know how basketball works?

Of course Parker and Manu will be heavily depended on - they're the only two on the Spurs who can create offense for the rest of the team. Again, all the top guards in the West are going from strength to strength, whereas the Spurs' keep getting closer and closer to the Larry Holmes estate.

Fast forward to another year, are they really going to not only increase their production/efficiency but also continue it for another long postseason run? Who's going to be attacking the rim/paint? Who's going to break down the defense to create offense for the rest of the team?

People thinking this trade matters?

People acting like the rocket's didn't ride an insanely hot josh smith and corey brewer...?

If it wasn't for those dudes they would have been out in the 2nd round...

Only got out of the first cause they played a mavs team that was falling apart...

The second this team meets a healthy GS, SA, or OKC, they are going to get killed...
None of this makes sense. Why don't yall think before posting?

We played the Spurs and Warriors (in the WCF) tough and we beat up on OKC even when they had KD. We beat the Clippers without D-Mo or Bev so I think the Rockets can fukk with those teams. Ty Lawson fits our style of pushing the pace and tempo and if he gets wide open 3's he should knock down 35-39% of them.

And Beverly's defense last years was not as good as it was the previous year. He was torched a few times and it forced Ariza to slide over and cover opposing PG's. So if Beverly is my backup point with Lawson starting I'm happy with that.
:dwillhuh:

Yeah, the Rockets probably improved. When you consider the increase in scoring at the pg position, the fact that Ty loves to play up tempo (and so does Houston), and now you have Beverly's defense off the bench.

However, look at the additions the Spurs have. Lemarcus Aldrige? David West? Duncan still playing at a high level? Kawai? Shiieett, it's a wrap already.

The most susceptible team is probably the Thunder, but the Spurs and Warriors are my pick for the WCF.

nikkas love to dikkride the Spurs

They are probably the 4th best team in the conference, including overrated Lamarcus Aldridge and washed David West. Their back court outside of Danny Green and the occasional Patty Mills sighting is pure trash. Tony Parker gets abused in the POs every year but gets a pass, Turnobli is :flabbynsick:, and you think this team going to stop a Harden-Lawson back court? :pachaha:

The Spurs got beatdown by Chris Paul on both ends of the court - and they had Green AND Kawhi on him getting torched. Now Harden gets a running mate in Lawson and you don't think they dropping mad buckets on them? :mindblown:

Ty gets a DUI and gets traded to a title contender. He better take advantage and get his career in order and dedicate himself to the game. Cause the Rockets have just as much chance as any other top team in the West and he can help them get there. It's gonna be tricky at first with him and Harden being ball dominant guards but I think they will figure it out by midseason and be firing on all cylinders.

Parker and Ginobli will be playing fewer minutes, you could see this trend last year, as both were playing fewer minutes, because frankly they aren't that good anymore. The ball will be in kawai's hands more so, and with the additions of Aldridge and West, Parker won't have to drive into the lane as much, Ginobli won't have to do his Euro step shyt as much.

And the point of saying the Clippers threw that series away, is simply that. They were clearly shook towards the end of those last couple games. Deer in the headlights look in Blake and CP3's eyes. They became ineffective and basically had stage fright.

Are you always this much of an a$$hole?

But none of those players can create offense for the team. :dwillhuh:

You do realize you need elite guard play to win right? :usure:

Again what's the point of saying they threw the series away when the Rockets showed just as much heart and determination to take it from them? You're belittling their effort against a team that knocked the Spurs out of the first round - a team in which whose core players will be another year older and broken down even more next season.

When dudes say dumb shyt, yes I am. :manny:

going to be interesting when you see people blame SAS guards for allowing the top West teams to walk into the paint all day
