The team that just went to a game 7 against a team led by a star in his twilight years? :skip:
Dantoni was forcing Brodie back into the lineup and Gordon needed to fix his shot, it was a huge gamble but both needed playing time to get tuned up for a second round. Shooters fell flat the last 3 games which allowed OKC to crawl back into the series. Let’s not play like Brodie didn’t just throw game 6 away 3 times the last 2 minutes of the game and we still had a shot to end it on a Harden step back 3.

Rockets are strong and old. Bigs aren’t the mismatch, post play is not the mismatch.

LeBron is sure but PJ Tucker has handled AD fine over the years, Dwight has no post moved anyway, and neither does JaVale. If they’re throwing it to those two in the post Harden is top 5 post defender in the league over the last 4 years.

3 and D wings are also no big issue. You’re going to let Harden or Ben McLemore stand there with Danny Green all game and be able to execute fine on offense
Dwight has no post moves, simply isnt true. He might be allowed to iso though.

AD isn’t fully healthy, you make him beat you with his 3 and jumper which are lower percentage shots
