who is guarding Russ or Harden on the Lakers?

Who is guarding AD on the Rockets?
Tucker pulls AD, we won against them but that was without Lebron playing. If I’m D’Antoni I make Davis try to beat you and make the Lakers run his minutes into the ground, there’s been reports he’s been having bad back spasms so that’s basically the only way the Rockets win (plus every single shooter being hot).
Rockets have a real shot but if we see games 5/7 team it’s going to be a sweep for the Lakers.

Unpopular opinion: winner of this series is taking the Intramural edition O’Brien trophy this season.

Did you watch those games, Adams was a non-factor:dwillhuh:
Didn’t say he was the reason, just saying if they can get taken to 7 games by a team with just a good big imagine what a team with an elite one will do

Well if the big wasn’t the reason and it was actually having three fast pull up shooting guards, why would Lakers having better bigs but no fast pull up shooting guards matter??

Yes the Lakers don’t have the kind of guards OKC have but they have Lebron and a bunch of 3 & D wings. Rockets were one of the worst rebounding teams in the league so facing a Lakers team with 3 good to elite bigs and Lebron who’s a great rebounder in his own right will cost the Rockets.

But hey I’m a neutral so could care less who wins :yeshrug: just pointing out a clear mismatch that I feel the Lakers will exploit.

AD needs to be impactful rather than big #s, he had 40 but still lost..we can not let Rockets control the tempo and play our own game. Hopefully we can take advantage with all our rest and Rockets playing with fatigue

Rockets matchup better with the Lakers than the Thunder. Y’all goin misinterpret and take it as disrespect but it’s not. Our best defenders are big/post defenders. Covington was a liability against cP3 on the perimeter or even Schroder. Lakers don’t have anybody that can do that Besides Bron. They don’t have dribble penetration threats like okc.

I’ll admit though One thing I'm worried about is the scrubs... Scrubs seem to have career games against us... And Lakers have plenty of them:hhh:


I’m not looking forward to Caruso or Cook goin off for 7 of 10 on the perimeter:francis:
