A modern NBA team against a team built to compete in the 1990's.

I think what you really mean is that they have James Harden, and we don’t.
If we have a healthy Reggie, (and that’s a HUGE if,) we really aren’t all that bad with Blake. Playing him with both Ish and Stanley for such big stretches really limits everyone’s effectiveness on the floor.
Oh well, you'll probably quote this when we’re down 25 by halftime.

Rockets may set at least season best on 3pt shots per game

No worries. I'm not interested in stating why this team is out dated in almost every conceivable way again. Enjoy the game!

Michigan is kicking ass. Much better game to watch.

Haven't watched the game, was working. But somehow I have a little hope for us making the playoffs, depending on Giannis injury and how many games he misses. They have a west coast trip and without Giannis they could easily go 5+ games losing streak after they beat Chicago.
We on the other hand, with Reggie back, have a chance to finish the season strong. If we can beat some of our hard games, and destroy the bad teams, we should finish close to .50 and maybe with a lot of luck make the playoffs.
If we can somehow beat Houston, things will start to look better for our chances. It's probably too late for Reggie to be back and us turn the things around, but I can dream right?

We got anything to lose? We don't have a pick anyways.

And #1 seed is Toronto, are you scared of them? If we'll ever have a chance to beat a #1 seed being the #8 that's against Toronto
