Not many players have tortured their fan base alone, as Stephen Curry did with the Rockets over the years. At this point, this was a solid decade.

Steph and the Warriors once again eliminate the Rockets.

Draymond’s ability to find ways to slap people in the face in the most unlikely scenarios makes him aroused

The amount of Draymond escapes is unrealistic.

Draymond does something unique that you can’t see before human movements

It appears that rockets have a bright future.
But the Sacramento Kings in 2023 was the same.

I don’t think Alperen Sengun is your top scorer. He is the guy you attack. The Rockets’ offense does not utilize cuts and off-ball movements in a consistent way. It needs to be changed so that they can use Sengun’s gravity to create attacks. Also get a new SG.

I didn’t expect to say these words, but Buddy Heald had a Klay Thompson-esque playoff performance.

Getting a night from Buddy Heard is cruel

Buddy Heard transforms into Prime Clay Thompson in a victory or return scenario.
