Good pickups for them.  They'll be a very tough out for warriors.

As an NBA fan I hope so.  Unfortunately I doubt that Harden has the mental makeup to lead a team against elite competition during the playoffs.  I can't buy into him until he proves me wrong.  CP3 definitely helps with leadership but he isn't athletic enough to keep up with the Warriors anymore.  At best I see the Rockets making it a 6 games series.

I don't see either of these players adding anything of value to the Rockets.

Joe Johnson can still give you something once in a while. I wouldn't be surprised if he had a big moment in a playoff game this year.

But neither player is enough to change things.

Ok at this point I finally admit it, Houston is a genuine threat to Golden State.

They have the defense to go with the offense....they have Capela.......they have defenders.....and they have motivation.  This current Rockets team is like twice as good as the Cavs team that met GS in the finals last year.  Of course they'll have to be.  Should go 7 games.  I think Houston will wear them down this year.
