Rockets are really being slept on. 2nd best roster in the league only below the Clippers.


Yall realize this is just a better version of the last 2 rockets teams that played the warriors to 6 and 7 games?
The 2018 Rockets team is the best. CP3 was a much better complement for Harden since he can spot up shoot and was willing to take a backseat, PJ Tucker was younger, Ryan Anderson was actually effective during the regular season, and their rotational players were better (Luc and Ariza > any of the new Rockets role players).

They have more shooters than GS right now. Westbrook doesnt have to shoot. He needs to keep distributing and getting steals for them to succeed
Westbrook is not gonna become rondo over night where he just passes, he likes to shoot. He will limit himself but he will still shoot. He doesn’t like driving anymore because of his age.

Playing like that doesn't even make sense.. Teams will just sag off him even harder if they know he's not willing to shoot. He has to play aggressive so the floor can open up for Harden, Gordon and other shooters.

He's literally saying he doesnt give a shyt about scoring. If he's lying then okay but I think he's comfortable winning. He was willing to let Paul do his thing last year. Around playoff time he was fukkin up though.
He was dealing with some injuries last year. I dont think it's not that he doesnt like driving, his knee was fukking him up

Players say a lot of things lol. The fact is he needs some what of a jumpshot for them to succeed. His play depends on him to score as well. He either attacks the rim every play or he doesn't shoot like last year (which was his worse). I do think they will be better than most are giving them credit for. Russ running in the fastbreak and having shooters will be great for him. But when the game slows down, Russ will need to shoot better.
