AD gets a lot of defensive attention so he needs to realise it's not the same as throwing the ball to your average big. His development coaches in OKC failed him and this is why he sucks in the playoffs, he's soooooo bad at reading adjustments.

I think I found one, Westbrook and the backboard.

Reaves has actually made a few questionable decisions in this one.

Why is Howard out of the rotation?

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.

He's hurt.

Out because of back tightness. I suspect that's why Vogel started AD at the 5, to have DJ fill the back up 5 role.

He’s what this team has desperately needed. Someone who just loves chucking up shots without hesitation (and can actually make them). Last year they had so many guys who didn’t like taking open 3s. Carmelo would take 20 a night if he could lol.

Russ has such a low IQ it is insane

Stop shooting pull up mid range jumpers, you suck at them

This Rockets team is just

Starters should be chilling on the bench for most of the 4th.

Of course these moronic refs rob him of a great highlight

I can’t really blame him. That used to be his bread and butter?

Baski · Post #478 » by **Baski** » Mon Nov 1, 2021 4:04 am

Lmao I didn't think he'd make that.

This is such a poorly played game by both teams. Lakers still have no chemistry out there.

This is one of the most poorly played games I can ever remember seeing. Lakers have had terrible shot selection in the third but it hasn't mattered because the Rockets look like a pickup team of G-leaguers.
