Series Thread: 2nd Round: Houston Rockets vs San Antonio Spurs

[Ickey Shuffle]

And yet - he's probably going to win the damn thing.

Westbrook. Because... Stats.

 

[Four4Four]

Harden is no lead dog. He should have just kept a 3rd fiddle role

He struggled in the finals as the 3rd wheel with OKC

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

Westbrook. Because... Stats.

If not Lebron, RW is who I'd vote for.

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

No way he wins now. I will bet on it.

The dude practically turtled at half court like a newborn fucking baby!

Regular season award. Votes already in.

Give the freaking Spurs some credit.
Why does it always have to be about their opponents playing poorly.

They won 61 games.
They won the season series.
They had the series lead (3-2)
They have completely and utterly dominated Mike Dantoni teams in the playoffs.
They have 21 consecutive 50 win seasons and the best coach in the game.
They havent finished lower than 2nd place since Doctor J was still in the league with a full Spurs roster.
They have more titles (5) than non-playoff seasons (4) in their entire franchise history.

But, it is all about James Harden??

Yes, he sucked. But SA played awesome as well.

What annoys me is that they don't even consider that maybe the Spurs were why Harden sucked.

Agreed with everything here.

Spurs vs Warriors better not disappoint. Looking forward to that chess match of a series.

 

[Iggloo]

Yea that is all true. And they have testicles unlike Houston.

Who said that?

Harden sucking is just the bigger story here. Sure SA was great and they defended him extremely well. But, not THAT well.

heard this on the way home and was all like "how the hell did they do this without Kawhi...?"

Coach Pop >>>>> D'antoni

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Big Ups to the Spurs....but damn, what an embarrassing effort by the Rockets in an elimination game at home.

[tnapucco]

Patrick Beverly, have a seat.

 

[msgkings322]

Oops.

Yeah, um...

 

[Shanemansj13]

Hoping Kawhi is better for the WCF's. It wouldnt be much of a series without him

 

[wildturkey]

I figured it out. A mafia syndicate captured James Harden's family, holding them hostage on the condition that he intentionally throw game 6 so they can clean house on all the people that bet on the Rockets after the Leonard injury. #WojBomb

 

[boogiewithstu2007]

I don't see the Spurs having much of a chance vs the Warriors... They're gonna have to kill the clock and play 90's Utah Jazz basketball if they want any kinda chance...

 

[BambinoBear]

Gonna be real tough to win without Leonard.

Or not.
