Houston can go toe to toe with anyone

[UK2K]

If they continue to move the ball so smoothly. Their offense is on point.

26 assists in game 1.
25 assists vs 11 turnovers on game 2.
8 assists in the first quarter tonight.

[BigNBAfan]

they cant go head to head cause they aint head'n no where so they gotta go toe to toe

bottom dwellers

[RoundMoundOfReb]

Not the Bulls. The Bulls are the most stacked team of all time. Gonna take a special effort to beat them.

[Jailblazers7]

Toe to toe is a phrase you use when you don't expect them to win a title. So yeah I guess I agree.

Agreed, as soon as Harden stopped stuffing stats and letting his great team get involved his team started playing much better. :cheers:

I don't expect them to win the title. If they make it to the finals, they'll he underdogs to all three teams. So no I don't expect them to win a championship.

#2 seed in the stacked West with an MVP candidate (the MVP?) and a former MVP candidate who is still one of the best in the NBA. Stop acting like an underdog.

[Spurs m8]

They're playing the 7th seed and only just keeping up, keep a lid on it, champ

Cheers

I wouldn't say they were favorites...

Cleveland Cavaliers 11/5
Golden State Warriors 11/5
San Antonio Spurs 7/2
Atlanta Hawks 12/1
Chicago Bulls 12/1
Houston Rockets 16/1
Los Angeles Clippers 18/1
Memphis Grizzlies 28/1

Record against the Warriors?

[UK2K]

Record against the Warriors?
This playoff team is firing on all cylinders. They look nothing like the regular season team.

22 assists per game as a team in the regular season. 26 in game 1, 25 in game 2, and 24 with 2:40 left in game 3.

They're sharing the ball. They're being unselfish.

[Inferno]

They play SAS/LAC next, right? Should be great either way.

[RoseCity07]

:oldlol:

They are beating up on a trash team. The would get swept by Clippers, Spurs, Memphis, Golden State. srs.

Blazers would probably beat them and I only say probably because of injuries. I think Pelicans would have a 50/50 chance. Rockets can go toe to toe with them.

oh oh I get it, because.....because Lebron will play them, and then he win and then his the best.

[ShawkFactory]

Definitely didn't see this series going this way.

Harden has impressed me, especially tonight obviously.

Them and LAC could be an incredible series. Spurs would take them in 6 though.

Blazers are straight ass right now, lol. No one's sweeping Houston.

[ILLsmak]

They got talent, but otoh dallas has imploded.

Yeah but Houston can't stop Lillard or Aldridge. So we'd beat them. Memphis is very good.

[RRR3]

A sack of potatoes could stop Lillard right now.

And no, Houston would anally ream a Blazers team at 40% of their potential (no Wes, Afflalo, Lillard slump)

[UK2K]

Houston in quarters 1, 3, 4:

107 points
23 assists

Houston in quarter 2:
23 points
O assists

I think Houston's defense with a revitalized Howard is good enough that as long as Houston continues to share the ball, they have a chance.

Looks like an entirely new team.

[icewill36]

except the warriors.... they dont matchup well with them at all, especially with beverly out.

they literally have no one to guard curry. jet terry ? prigioni ? they are both old as hell. curry will have a free for all

then harden would have to deal with klay. they have draymond to match up with jones/smith

i dont think they stand a chance against them honestly

Memphis is the same way, they are playing closer to their peak (from earlier in the season) but it's against a team they matchup well against.

Easy to become confident when playing one team. Doesn't mean you'll play the same way against a better team. Just need to wait and see if it carries over.

[bdreason]

How were their games in the regular season vs. Spurs?
