LOL. In NBA playoff history, there have been 467 best‑of‑7 series where one team went up 2‑0. Of those, the team that fell behind 0‑2 came back to win the series 34 times, which is about 7.3% success rate.
Well, we haven’t played at home yet. Maybe KD and Sengun have lingering injuries and can use a few days to heal. Lal role players cool off in Houston and we’re back in this. Until we lose at home we’re doing ok. We will come out like fire in game 3. I know, even this team will come out big. We win 3 and then it’s on game 4. Win that and it’s tied! It could happen…
LAL has home court advantage. Lebron has never lost the series (out of 24 series) when being up 2-0 to start. I am very doubtful the ROCKETS will be the team that gives him the 1 loss. If they do, I'd be very happy, and would forgive all sins by the organization, coaching staff, KD, and don't care if we're out in the next round.
Dickerson's got sore hands from tweeting and Sengun is still tired from euroball . . . the extra days will do them both a world of good
The positive vibe I’m taking from this series is that people are starting to see Udoka and Stone for the frauds that they are That’s a positive development
Very possible, if are team wants this but tbh it's almost like they don't want it. Assuming they don't have FVv and Adams, moving in might not be there top priority. BRON and Luka have better chance at upsetting okc. I'm hoping they wake up, rockets can be good if they want to, they have all the tools to win. Make shots , get open looks ,n spread the floor and find the open man.
We need someone like “Killer Wat” on our team. We need to get rid of Ime. I just can’t stand the dude anymore.
I'm not saying the Rockets will come back because we aren't playing right period. At the same time being down 2-0 is not something this organization isn't familiar with not to disregard your odds. It's not 3-1 or 3-0... only 2 games have been played and I'm also saying game 3 is the first game on the lower seeded teams court.
Lol it’s all about body language. When Tari keeps jacking up 3s and there is no ball movement, you know that the team has mailed it in.
True, but also 2 of those 34 were accomplished by the Rockets...2 years in a row, both against the same team, in the WCFs.... Truestonians will of course recall what team that was...
Pull out Game 7, Austin Reaves secret weapon. JJ smirks. Udoka still owes us 1-2 Ejections, dropping 2 'b*tches'. Narrative already written, Faker gentleman swept in 2nd Round.
I think it's a positive to lose this series for our team to make serious changes this summer, including the front office
Joke? OKC swept that series by 29 pts per game. ..historically bad matchup. OKC 4-5 playmakers, Caruso alone can slow down Luka. Rockets have a better chance bc of offensive rebounding but they need to be healthy but I don't see more than 1 Win either barring injuries. Only team that can beat OKC are Spurs, Nuggs and Celtics can force 7s.
The series will end 4–3. We'll fight hard, but Doncic will return for the final game and they'll win it.
