You really think so? You think we operate differently if they had been swept? I'm not so sure that's true. A series win maybe, but I don't think our plan or trajectory changed with the two wins.
I didn’t mean you per se. Just to clarify. I think you are one of the better posters on here and articulate yourself well for the most part
Even with fvv back next season, this roster is not capable of getting out of the first round. I know this statement doesn’t mean anything, but if they truly run it back with everything intact then might as well airmail next season and you can definitely say that the kd experiment was a failure.
We're going over the luxury tax with a 1st round exit team. Well done Stone, great roster building. This era of Rockets basketball is completely ****ed.
Definitely. Major roster and managerial overhaul if the Rockets had been swept. Now, they want to run it back with the same band.
Why were they worthless? Sheppard, Tate, and Jabari lost the game then bounced back strong 2 games straight without Durant. They weren’t worthless at all. If anything they built the experience and toughness these players need.
Ugh, that's what I'm thinking. They really believe that FVV & Adams will fix all of what's wrong with this team. They might even look like it for a while - until they get injured again. They did miss a point guard ... but Fred wasn't that good to begin with, just average-ish. That's part of the problem - they are average-ish at just about every position. Adams can't be counted on, he's been hurt more than he's been healthy in the last 4 years. I sure hope Amen learns to shoot all the sudden.
fred isn’t average at all. He’s a great defender at the point which is important since the pg calls out defensive assignments and he stops ball penetration from that position which is something this team struggled with. He’s also a great screen and roll player. People forget he had a pretty good first year here in 23-24.
Fred is a ****ing inefficient scorer and mediocre playmaker. And we gotta pathetic 78 pts in elimination game. In addition, don't expect mental midget KD can play well like 41 year old Lebron.
Nah disagree with you. Fred has been a solid playmaker his whole career and 37% career 3 pt shooter. He doesn’t finish well in the paint and mid range low % but he’s a solid overall pg and you are undervaluing him
I know I've had so many drinks tonight. But I don't think that's the reason why I have no idea what your post means when referencing mine. I wanted them swept so there'd be a 0.0001% chance the coach would be relieved of duties. Winning two games means that minute chance ain't happening.
