Lazy from AD on that pass.

I am convinced the Rockets will come back in this game.

AD done Green dirty with that low blow.

If Westbrook was playing just average, this would be a close game.

He has been so bad.

Davis should legit average 40 this series. I don’t see why he couldn’t.

I have a whole new respect for Harden.
The Rockets are a whole different team with the ball in his hands compared to Westbrook.
Like night and day different.

Rockets definitely have one more run left in them. This game is far from over.

Rondo is giving the Rockets wide open 3s. They're consistently 4 on 5 on defense with him out there.

Stop it dude you if anyone should know you guys can cut it down in a couple of minutes.

But it wouldn't be a dramatic hot take if he was reasonable would not it?!! :lol:

Lakers will come out slow in the 3rd.

Luckily when Westbrook loses his athleticism he'll be able to rely on his jumper and high basketball IQ

It could easily happen. They just can't have another stretch where Harden sits and Westbrook starts cooking for the Lakers

As long as Westbrook gets a ton of minutes and feels inclined to take over offensively, I would feel safe.

If Westbrook would learn to stop shooting, yes the rockets are a nightmare to stop.

Well to be fair, having the ball in the hands of an 8th grade volleyball player would be a massive upgrade over Westbrook

Lakers flat out abused Houston. The offensively efficiency is through the roof. No answer. All they can do is hoist 3's/fish for fouls and hope like hell they get hot.

Nobody can convince me Westbrook hasn't lost a step he cant even attack guys anymore and has no lift on his layup attempts

Shame we didn’t win in 2010. Toss up between Pierce or Rondo for MVP. Rondo with MVP possibly a Hall of famer. Ship has sailed on that now.

Hall of Fame talent, also and unfortunately, a Hall of Fame head case.

Yup. Odd he never got a massive long term deal. Timing just never worked out with the various injuries and trouble he caused.

Ben-N1ce · Post #1560 » by **Ben-N1ce** » Mon Sep 7, 2020 1:51 am

Westbrook is the only reason the OKC series went 7 and there is a good chance he's a total liability in this series.

Who ya got?
