Part of his master plan.

expected. That China nonsense and the moves he’s been making you could tell. He’s a broken man after not being able to beat the Warriors.

 

[D StaXX]

Preach!

I'm scared for what we're about to do

My guy FVV's about to cash out with y'all

exactly. MDA too damn stubborn. I don’t get it man and you’d expect with him probably not coming back he’d just be like **** it but he’s still stubborn.

y'all making a big deal about MDA not playing a g league center against Cody Zeller and Willy Hernangomez. He played for a few minutes, got exposed QUICKLY, went back to the bench, and the small ball lineup flourished. Unless the other team is playing a center that actually requires matching with a center, i'm cool going small.

Lakers are the team that worries me the most. Bron/AD will kill small ball.
Not saying the rockets will beat every other team guaranteed but I like the matchup

This. The Lakers are the only team in the west whose size really presents a problem. Outside of them, we benefit from playing small across the board. Not to mention, we can still acquire players through this trade because it isn't complete AND then the buyout market. Patience.

just contract the Knicks already.. cant even see this team being good in 5 years

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

You need at least 2-3 Above Average BIGS in the playoffs to have a decent chance to beat LAL and MIL.

No ifs and or buts about it

This whole thing about the league being a copycat league and everyone wanting to imitate GSW "small ball" is an illusion.

Only clowns like MDA and Morey would ever think small ball and jacking up 45 threes a game is the way to go

 

[shotsrangout]

so many ******* wasted draft picks.. so many stupid *** contracts..

To be fair, when it works you win 3 out of the last 5 championships.

my thing is, it’s February against a team that lost 11 games in a row. I get he made some mistakes. But it’s Charlotte. Had miles bridges looking like Dennis Rodman on the glass

To be realistic, there are no other teams that can say they have the Splash Brothers PLUS Durant

That's literally the only instance of it working out though tbf ,also having 3 of the best scorers ever for most of it helped out a lot with that too

 

[whitemamba27]

never thought rivers would turn into a solid player. good on him

 

[frshstunna]

Rockets could have at least got back a C from ATL...They got like 6 on the roster right now

 

[Brosizzlew30.23]

Teams should not copy what they cant replicate

This idea of being able to copy how GSW built its roster around prime Steph, Klay, and Dray is laughable

calculated trade-off. got outrebounded, but had a wide open paint for plenty of layups and wide open 3s when they helped. excluding eric gordon's 0-12, we were 20-48 from 3 (42%) which is elite. including his 0-12, we shot 20/60 and still won by 15 without Russ.

 

[Based Jesus]

Not even as a joke man cmon dont do that to us

Watching last night, I think I heard Charlotte had like 14 points in the 1st from offensive rebounds.
Unacceptable.
