The Rockets aren't getting anywhere in the playoffs

[Smook A.]

1-1 against each other, a few games apart, and they're much better? Warriors beat the 3rd seed last year and went on to take 2 games out of the team that went to the Finals.

Meanwhile, Houston was gonna get swept by the Thunder if Westbrook didn't get hurt




Warriors' defense will have a field day against the prayer 3's the Rockets will be heaving in the 4th if the two teams meet

We're 2-1 against the warriors. We went up against the mother fvcking miami heat. Have the warriors beat the Heat this season?? Ummmm... I don't think so.

[Inferno]

First round exit if the playoffs started right now.

Nah, they can take the Blazers. If the Warriors pass the Blazers up, then it'd be an interesting series. I'm discrediting the Rockets too much; I'd love a Rockets - Warriors series

Ah, you're right. :h5:

Still 0-1 with Iggy though

[brantonli]

Lee was injured too.

And we added Iddy, and bolstered our bench. Plus Bogut is finally playing healthy and has the best defensive rating in the NBA.

Rockets 0-1 against the Warriors with Iggy



Did they last year?

soooooo you're comparing the Warriors getting Iggy (not Iddy btw) with Rockets getting Dwight?

Have the warriors beat the Heat this season?? Ummmm... I don't think so.

Yes.

I think they can take some teams without a really good scorer, but teams with players like Lebron, Durant, Wade, etc, will expose their porous defense. SAS don't match up too well with the Rockets, but the game tends to slow down in the playoffs. Rockets need to continue to develop their defensive identity (if possible). Parsons was mic'd up and I heard him preaching "tighter defense". That's a great sign.

to bad Parsons is absolutely terrible at defense and is mega overrated on offense.
as long as he takes 13 shots per game they wont do a thang

I'm comparing the Rockets getting Iggy, Steve Blake, Jermaine O'Neal, Jordan Crawford, and a healthy Bogut to the Rockets getting Dwight and the Rockets bench additions

[Milbuck]

Agreed. Beardsley is going to get EXPOSED big time. When the free throws stop coming, it's over. Finito.

At one point in this game he had 22 points on 4 field goals. That is just absurd.

Warriors fan talking shit when their team could miss the playoffs.

[Inferno]

I'll go out right now and admit that I'm discrediting the Rockets in this thread But I still think Warriors can beat them in a playoffs series

Not happening, brah

[LONGTIME]

Your right I just glanced at the standings and they would play Portland. For some reason I thought it was the Clippers.

Who cares. Rockets are still better than the Warriors.

And answer my fvcking question. Did the warriors beat the Heat this season?

Dumbass thread. We're 2-1 against gsw. You guys almost lost that 3rd one

[Inferno]

Dumbass thread

Yeah, we did beat the Heat, January 2nd.

I think the Warriors are better, but a series would be great to watch

[longtime lurker]

They won't be able to get pass the Spurs, Clippers, or Thunder.

Bruh I'm pretty sure Rockets couldn't get past the Grizzlies right now

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Why was GS brought up? This thread is about the Rockets - and yes, they aren't going anywhere. Their inability to do anything in the half-court and Lin's shitty defense will be their demise.
