Keep blaming the coaches for James Harden's overrated skill level? Harden has been choking in the playoffs with Scott Brooks, Kevin McHale, JB Bickerstaff and Mike Dantony. He's just not that good. The media and step back 3s have given you this false sense of talent because the NBA game during the regular season is meant to keep the masses interested with scoring. He MIGHT win you a title as the 2nd star. That's about as close. 3rd guy, for sure, as long as the other two are someone like Lebron and AD.
Rockets just rolled over. Very surprised considering how well they played in Game 1. One trick ponies. I'm surprised Daryl Morey is not fired? How is that guy still around from 2007? He was the GM when Yao/T-Mac were all stars.
So happy to be done with Pringles and his wacko offense, along with Harden and his crap style of play. Good riddance.
I don't understand how ESPN keeps praising Pringles as a great coach. He's stubborn, refuses to make adjustments, and plays his stars all game. I'll never forgive him for what he did to Kobe.
That was the most satisfying Laker win since we beat like the Clippers last time. F*** the Rockets, f*** Harden and ‘Antoni and their evil styles of “basketball”, for one year they’ve yet again been beaten back and sent back to hell until they re-emerge and unleash their evil upon us yet again. So glad it was us that got to stop them this time, it didn’t even have to go 6 or 7 like usual, they basically got swept after we had one stinker. Harden is such a fraud and a loser, that’s got to be the least impactful 30 point game you’ll ever see, u didn’t even realize he had that much.
This was so satisfying. Damfony is trash. Garbage. Gimmick BS peddling hack. Good riddance. Soften is a fake superstar. Moreyball went down in flames. Later compost heap and your gimmick horrible basketball. Houston is a crime against basketball. F off forever.
That is insane. Ton of roster turnover and no continuity. The number cruncher can't calculate chemistry.
Love ending MDA's tenure as their coach. And can we finally stop praising Harden for being the best scorer in the history of basketball. His post season track record is officially that of a bum.
Keep messing up and adding negative intangibles instead of just going with the matchups in terms of my predictions Anyways Lakers in 6 or 7 over the Clips: I think PJ Tucker is a far better post defender then anyone the Clips have and if they really want to play Zubac Lakers can just out big with them with Dwight/AD together or PnR him to death. Kuzma's growth as a defender and getting Morris really helped neutralize the wing mismatch of Kawhi/George as now you don't have to put guys like KCP on Kawhii *Still hope Denver wins: Kawhii is a stud and the only player who can go toe to toe with Lebron in the league night in and night out. Rather avoid the variance with that matchup
