    Reaves coming back is a positive. He’ll disrupt the Smart-Kennard tidal wave. Marcus Smart and Luke Kennard combined for 42 points in Game One and 48 points in Game Two. It sucks, but what can you do when you play the best guards in the league?

    Reaves is a decision based on warm ups. not a certainty. and if he plays he’s restricted to 20 minutes.

    Rockets are done. What an anticlimactic ending to a sh*t season.

    I’m not watching. I hope they get swept so they can trade sengun.

    They were always going to get embarrassed by Okc in the second round.

    Can't say that it matters. Instead of swarming KD and Sengun, LA will just swarm Reed and Sengun. And when Reed turns the ball over 9 times all the usual suspects on this board will blame him as usual. Michael Jordan couldn't make Ime's bricklayers look good, but sure, Reed's not ready - whatever.
