If you are expanding the rotation four games into the playoffs, does that mean you didn’t figure out your team yet?

We're going to have to double Sengun every time. If somebody else beats us, then we lose. But its a guaranteed basket or foul right now if we let him go one-on-one.

Man, this game ugly. And Kerr still hasn't figured out the zone yet.

Steph looks like his tank is on empty. The Rockets physicality on him is taking a toll.

Nobody else plays with this level of physicality. Kuminga is the guy that needs to be given an opportunity to see if he can loosen them up.

I think Moody got sprayed by Frozone. Good god we really need him to hit a few shots.

Buddy hasn't hit a ton of 3s but at least he came to play and is doing a lot of good other things out there.

You have to pick your poison; if you go all-out to defend that then their size just eats us up in the paint and on the glass.
