The best example I can think of...actually involves these 2 teams. I believe that the 95 spurs swept the rockets in the RS and got theirs handed to them in the POs. Regular season matchups = grain of salt, especially if they are against a seasoned PO team tbh
Nah . Thanks for telling us what we already know. All your posts are filler fecal matter , got.
If it happens Rox might as well spread them cheeks, find a pillow and bite hard ...
Spurs going balls deep tbh ...
KL will do just enough to limit Harden and Pop will be coaching circles around McHale ...
The issue isn't D12, it's Harden, MVParsons and the shooters. The rate at which Harden gets whistles means either Green or Kiwi will be in foul trouble half the series. If you back off, he'll score. MVParsons is another guy that can both shoot and get to the rack. They also have a bunch of fluky 3 point shooters (Lin, Garcia, Beverly, Casspi). My main concern is the damage from 3 point land. We're going to have to be pretty sharp guarding the perimeter that series. You would almost want to give D12 anything he wants, and cover the rest.
If given the respect as a defender of say a Battier or Prime Artest I think KL can limit Harden for stretches. HE is to good to stop but I think a healthy KL has the length to back off and contest. Green will need to stat attached to Parsons ...
Like the Warriors I think Rox will die by the 3 as the playoffs continue even if they beat Blazers ...
Don't act like the NBA existed before 2007 for you got.
Hows the Chimp doing btw? I guess it really was god's way of saying you to him when Bev's meniscus magically healed itself this weekend

I have to say though, it was interesting to see the rockets beat the spurs last time without Harden, but Manu did go out with an injury at half time.
That being said, Spurs in 6 or 7 unless the rockets can get hot from 3 and get production from Lin. / Thread .
"please let me weakly deflect your criticism of my ty takes!"
the time I lurked I saw scrubs like you litter this part of the forum with nothing but ty uninteresting takes. Go back to clutchfans where your kind belong.
He doesn't get that at this stage of his career. Not against the Hardens or Durants that have selling fouls to a T.
Lebron is different, because he's such a beast. Sometimes he doesn't even get whistles he's supposed to get.
It will eventually get better, but right now Kiwi will have to do his work through steals, blocked shots, rebounds, and survive the foul trouble.
In his defense, the OP did say the Rockets would lose in the WCF. So he's not completely delusional. My problem is, how can you say "playoffs looking good" if you're predicting a WCF appearance at best?Your bar for "good" is pretty low, sir...but then you ARE a Rockets fan...

sook doesn't waste time with scrubs like you
New fans like this guy ^
Sure and us getting swept by the Clippers during the regular season doesn't matter right? So theoretically, we should be praying that we draw them early. Cause obviously, the regular season means squat and we should be able to slap the Clippers in the playoffs because we look better on paper.
All about matchups son.
Didn't Golden State sweet the regular season last year?
