It's game 1 of a playoff series
It shows Houston will go at least 6. They can win.
I don't think they can shoot enough to win 4 but they might, it's not some impossible dream
Lakers not a whole lot better, none of the top teams are
They can definitely win.
Especially if Vogel continues to trot out McGee and Howard for their normal minutes.
There is a reason Kerr DNP’d McGee against Houston, and this version is an even worse matchup.
You can’t play a big against this team unless either:
1) They dominate the boards and can score to make Houston pay for being small
2) They can defend in space
Howard and McGee couldn’t do either of those things in game 1.
