Title: Rockets? Piece of Cake
Post by: trickybilly on May 16, 2018, 11:02:24 PM: I feel like if the Rockets got through somehow, we would win in 5.

Discuss.

Yes. LeBron was laughing it up with Kevin Love at the post game yesterday.

3-0 them, and ideally just 4-0 their ass.

The Pacers-Cavs series has finally sold me on never counting out LeBron...he has become an absolute monster.

Here's where the buck stops. We do match up well with GS but we can't beat them without Kyrie and Hayward. Kyrie would torch Steph. We're holding teams to very little points, but very little points for the Warriors is like 100 or so, which means we gotta score 100 or so +1, 4 times, to win. Not happening against that team without those two.

Post by: mr. dee on May 17, 2018, 01:39:38 AM: I want the Rockets too because they are too reliant on CP3 and Harden. But let's win the conference first before discussing the future.

Post by: TheSundanceKid on May 17, 2018, 07:29:42 AM: Man, when Gordon Hayward went down everything felt so low. Now we're debating whether we'd prefer the Rockets or Golden State in the finals. Whatever the outcome, what a journey this has been!

Post by: vjcsmoke on May 17, 2018, 01:24:47 PM: Rockets just blew out the Warriors.

Just focus on beating the Cavs first please. This series is far from over. Beating them in Cleveland is going to be tough and the Celtics are still underdogs in this series in the eyes of many.
