Random NBA Observations 2019 - 2020

If this is what Memphis is coming with, I’m cool on them getting the 8th seed.

nikkas wasn't waiting for the playoffs to say how stupid they were.

Small ball is working.

You cant say something is working based off 7 games where they have also played bad teams. People are right to be skeptical because that hot shooting won't always be there in playoffs and Rockets will have to guard bigs when game slows down. If they pull it off, the Rockets fans can take their victory lap then.

Only one team wins the playoffs. So that wait until the playoffs statement is bullshyt. They are playing great basketball and look like a different team.

I’m saying any good isolation player is goin to strive in our small ball strategy with the floor spacing benefit. Imagine if we still had sweet Lou. But I like Austin rivers

You need defenders in a system like this. Jamal, Lou-- are professional turnstiles.

So shouldn't they be the team to win it if it's working?? You want to go on a victory lap because they have defeated the Knicks/Warriors and now Grizzlies without two of their top 5 guys.

I will give Rockets and their system full credit if they can beat either of the Lakers or Clippers in a 7 game series, they dont have to win the ring.

Whole reason they made this move is to be successful in playoffs, they were a good regular season team with the other system too so yeah I am not ready to give them props yet.

They played 11 games without Capela and went 10-1 which is what gave them the confidence to make the move. So a 20 game sample isn't sufficient now?

Valanciunas gotta hold this L

What hot shooting? They’re shooting their norm from three. They’re not a great Thee point shooting team. Never had been. They’re just a high volume shooting team. That’s not goin ever change in the postseason regular or preseason so miss me with that shyt. Team are goin to have to adjust to Houston and not the other way around because they ain’t bringing in Tyson Chandler even if the lakers put A frontcourt if Ad, McGee and Lebron on the floor

I'd hold off on that til the inevitable let down in may.

When will folks learn

You sound like a clown. They've already beaten the Lakers, Celtics, and the Jazz twice just looking at the most recent matchups.

Lay off the homie @ALonelyDad we was just having basketball talk.

But he is wrong in this one

No the whole reason They made the trade was because the system wasn’t working to its full potential with two none perimeter-oriented players on the floor and because Capela wasn’t a real rim protector compared to the other elite bigs in the league

They did not beat the Jazz twice, they split the two games..so stop lying. And I gave them credit for their wins over Celtics and Lakers. They also beat the Jazz with their other system because Rockets are a much better team. I am a clown for wanting to wait to see if the system is successful in playoffs or not? Rockets fans are just like their star player whose championship is the regular season I guess

Shot 45% against the Lakers..not the norm.

And I am not here calling Rockets a bad team, the conversation is if this new system will work or not. They were a good team with the Capela system as well? Were they not? This move was made to push them over the hump and me not giving them credit after 7 games is not hate. Like I said I will be the first one to give them credit if they can beat the Lakers or Clippers..either one. They have always been the 3rd best team to me with or without Capela. They were going to beat Jazz and Nuggets in a playoffs series regardless.

That was a fluke loss.

That midrange spot is so important. That’s what

we best the jazz twice dog. Last weekend and we beat them before the all star break without harden and Westbrook when Gordon dropped 50


We were a good team with Capela but before the trade we were 8-1 without him and analytic s showed elite metrics when pj played center without another big on the floor especially on defense.
