Everyone except Rubio and Crowder.I know, Utah actually shot the ball decent tonight though.

Yeah but their defense didn't play like a top defense. They're top 5 in most major defensive statistics. I think OKC barely cracks 100 in game 2 and win a close one
No, that's not all that matters. There is still plenty of game left - and when RW feels like another player is upstaging him he tends to go off the rails with his iso & put his team at risk of losing. That is what he does regularly. Honestly, I hope OKC wins this series though. OKC is a better match up than Utah for GS.
yea, realized that already
Yeah Utah IMO. They defend better & Gobert can win the battle against Capella easily.
I'm not sure which of these teams can beat Houston, probably neither. Maybe Utah has a better shot?
But they defend better than OKC by a longshot. What does it matter if you score 120 if you let the other team score 130? With defense at least you have a shot.But they can't really score enough to beat Houston. No shame in that, Houston is one of the top 2 teams this year.

Man, that Dude is always hurt.10 points in 2 minutes for Burks. He better be in the rotation on Wednesday
I never said their defense is bad. OKC's problem is they're not consistent on defense, which will allow any team they play in the playoffs a chance to beat them.You're really underestimating OKC defense. Utah defense is better but you're talking like OKC defense is bad. They're not.
Top 10 defensive team
and how many times has it been said on here that reg season games mean squat in the post season? I'm sticking with my original answer.HOU scored 112, 120, and 137 in 3 of their 4 games vs Utah. Only 96 in the other game.
Scored 102 and 107 in 2 of their 3 games vs OKC. 122 in the other game.
OKC is also a much better offensive team than Utah. OKC is clearly the better option of the 2 if you want to see HOU gone before the WCF.
IMO, Houston eliminates Utah in 4 or 5 while a series vs OKC is a toss up and will go 6 games at least.....probably 7
I can't with you & #dickatease!Man, that Dude is always hurt.
He had a really good Season a few years back, got a fat contract and disappeared until now.
I'm guessing it's a contract year or it will be soon.

I hope so. Not sure if their defense intensified last night or if the Jazz were just anxious & beat themselves. Gotta think Utah can get it together & have a better showing in game 2.You're right. It means squat. Teams usually play with more intensity in the playoffs so I would assume OKC defense will be better in the playoffs than regular season.
