We're right there in the regular season but until it happens it the playoffs I'm not gonna jinx it by saying the Rockets will even make the WCF. We gotta prove it in the playoffs obviously. LOL Spurfan having meltdown...
They made it more recently? So what? I don't see them holding on to that top seed and getting to the ECF this year. They are playing incredible basketball at the moment but again I just don't see it down the stretch.

Yeah, but you are forgetting about CP3.
they outrebounded them because they were packing the paint and getting hammered from wide open 3. If they'd defend properly they leave the paint unpacked and get drowned inside by drives and 2nd chances... that's why they were packing it.
also lol at celtics outrebounding the cavs while love is sitting this one out and TT is playing like dog .
Watch the game smh.
rim protection and post defense are 2 different thing numbnuts. You can have amazing rim protection but weak post defense leading to collapse of paint defense. nothing difficult tbh...
son, you're really not making sense anymore... and it's probably because you're working backwards to try and prove an incorrect statement rather than letting the facts guide you to the answer.
in the boston/cle game, cleveland missed 39 FGA, and boston missed 53 FGA. as defensive rebounds are much easier to secure than offensive rebounds, CLE easily should have outrebounded them. no matter what strategy you throw out there, a defensive rebound is a much higher probability than an offensive rebound. there's no explaining that away.
for the season boston has the #1 team defensive rating. they have a higher defensive rebound% and offensive rebound% than cleveland.
i agree they'll lose to CLE in a playoff series and i think Hayward's loss is a big factor there... but son, acting like their rebounding/interior presence is the reason is just plain dumb
son you're right about the stats in the regular season and against the cavs (without love.. with him those stats change)
any big lineup (cavs, raptors, heat, pistons) will put them in trouble: defend the inside and leave 3p shooters open or stay on the shooters and bleed inside, so these stats are fools gold for the playoffs tbh. I said it a couple of posts ago and I'm saying it right now, being #1 in rebounding as a team doesn't mean in the playoffs without a great rebounder
Yeah but nothing you said is based on anything except 'that's my feels!'
Thus it's silly for you to make a statement no one can select Toronto when you haven't given any logical reason why.
Watch a game.
Of the three Finals, Kardashian showed up in one. Meaning 2 of 3 he did not.
Pretty sure the one was prior to his joining the Kuck Kult.
JR Smith got incredibly hot in last years Finals, but all in all everything else he does sucks, his defense sucks and what you are missing is the slacker at ude they both bring.
milwaukee has outrebounded boston exactly 0 times so far this series
At least things are more of a crap shoot now, but...:
Dubs over Jazz in 6 (assuming Curry is >80% for the second round)
Cavs over Sixers in 6
Dubs over Cavs in 5
Could legit see a Sixers/Jazz finals
I'd love a Sixers-Pelicans final. We haven't seen a duel of all-star centers in a long time in the finals, so Davis vs Embiid would be sick. (I'm still upset we never got to see Duncan vs Garnett in the finals or WCF. It should have happened in '04.)
Simmons vs Holiday would be interesting too.
Halfway there
