Explain why Houston isnt allowing more points

[Nike D'Antoni]

They have no rim protector. And OKC in 4th quarter is still at 67 points. How are they this good defensively without rim protector?

They have only 3 players above 6'5'.

They are a solid scrambling team. Teams can't pick and roll on them because they switch everything.

When teams actually get a guard on a big man, they force you to try to post up and they can double and force you to play a way you don't want to.

If they get past OKC, expect to see some of it in the next round. AD with a midget on him and they will trade his long 2s for 3s.

Dort 3pt %

[tpols]

They're all plus defenders and switch flawlessly. People say to post them but their doubles are very fast and OKC can't shoot 3s.

They haven't played LeBron

[Tobio-Star]

They are playing a team with a 35 yr old "all-star" and mostly inexperienced role-players
