WHAT HAPPENS TO A ROCKET WHEN IT LANDS IN A LAKE?: LAKERS VS ROCKETS 2ND ROUND PLAYOFF SERIES THREAD

[The D-List Vet]

That's directed straight at AD, he's too soft man, hopefully that turns him into a beast, Kobe had Pau battling with KG, Bron can't get a better player like AD with more skills and talent to battle against PJ Tucker smh

could be a shot at Giannis

Whos the one on the left in white?

 

[Cynical Thoughts]

Biggest takeaways after this game for me are

Rockets defense forces teams into good old Iso-ball. The ability to switch 1-5 shuts a lot of shyt down

Houston's defensive weakness is quick guards. Only Eric Gordon & Austin Rivers can stay in front of them that's why CP3 and Schroder were both cooking our ass in the first round. Even guys like Trey Burke & Ish Smith eat against us. Lakers only have Bron who's a great Isolation player. It's going to be tough to generate offense if 3s aren't falling.

Harden must be thanking God he don't have to face Lu Dort anymore. That nikka don't make sense. Size, strength, length, footspeed, discipline, IQ, hustle, fighting over screens etc. He was keeping me awake at night. Lakers guards are BBQ chicken compared to what he just went through.

You did what most casuals do, forget Hardens defense. Having good defense and not trying verses trying but not being able to play good defense is two different things.

knowing harden has the ability to shut down (edit:contain)Kobe defensively then fast forward to being abused by scrubs is infuriating.

Hardens defense on the perimeter and post rivals Dorts defense against him.
It’s all there for you to see when he commits. Sadly it takes a bad shooting game for it to happen.

Can we bring Boogie back and deactivate Rondo? Dude should not be getting minutes.

 

[Conscious Pilot]

Lakers still will probably win this series. But it’s clear that no matter how dope of a Duo Lebron and AD are, that without a dynamic guard who can shoot the 3(preferably a younger player) it’s gonna be a tough road ahead to bring a ship to the Lakers.

Houston is gonna get past LA. I see either Harden finally getting his first ring or Kawhi adding a third.

giannis better be rockin some rockets gear...cuz if lakers lose streets gon be on bron ass so bad they gon forgot this nikka lost too

 

[Brief Keef]

WTF

Lebron 0 points in the 4th?!?!

seriously?

worse than 2011

I think the key is the lakers make adjustments. Watching the lakers play before corona they were always in close games, played solid defense in the 4th and got the win. They should win this series.

The lakers are like the boxer that takes the early rounds off.

I don't think there's an argument against that but that shyt won't work against the fakkit ass clippers so it's not good enough.

Oh and people acting like Rondo doesn't make thing flow better on offense need to stop watching. He hasn't played in months I would expect him to be worse than he was. Breh was slipping and sliding all over the court

If Westbrook is hitting jump shots AT ALL this series is over.

this actually might be the better part of your take ... when I saw Russ was on splash mode I was like ruh-roh


... I don’t know if he’ll be able to maintain that kinda shooting over the course of the series tho

I could see him next game revert to clank mode, running around unbridled without much control .

Rockets bus prolly bumping this shyt during the ride back to they rooms

 

[Jplaya2023]

Lakers have 2 play AD at the 5 and bron at the 4
Dwight and mcgee are useless
