2019-20 NBA Regular Degular Season thread

Likely, even

Pretty sure these are the three defensive plays that Boylen was criticizing LaVine for postgame. They happened on three consecutive possessions. Boylen called a timeout after the last one and pulled LaVine out of the game after only 3:27 of 1Q playing time. pic.twitter.com/8LwHhoIPvm

the last two plays are pretty egregious, he’s basically standing completely still watching a wide open three pointer take a shot

as a rockets hater i have nothing but love for how much austin rivers plays for them

westbrook doesn’t look right

I was wrong about the rockets

xp i'm always amazed how bad rivers looks

the clippers are playing the rockets how i’ve seen the heat play them, which is to double harden as soon as he crosses half court and accept playing 4 on 3 after he passes it. westbrook and capela don’t have much chemistry right now.

This game is good

Both teams have a lot to figure out but the clips depth is crazy

did it right there and russ bricked the 3

that’s a pop a shot jumper for kawhi

Rwb solves nothing for this rox squad

classic russ

Yah they left Russ wide open

Wow they missed a wide open Ben mclemore to force feed harden

Rwb solves nothing for this rox squad

Yah cp really was the ideal harden teammate.

harden is so ridiculous that he can win any regular season game by himself, but the rockets are clearly below the LA teams for me come the playoffs, meaning they won’t have advanced any further than last year

idk if cp was ideal but pairing westbrook with harden just invites double teams unless russ is gonna make the right pass every time

If they couldn’t do it last year after kd went down and curry was in the middle of a weird energy funk then it’s not gonna happen. Cos they are def not better with Russ.

There was a few times harden passed up to Russ and then didn’t even barely cross half court

it shouldn’t be a viable defense in the NBA to willingly play 4 on 3. but the rockets don’t really make teams pay for it and it’s not all russ’ fault. with gordon hurt there’s always at least one guard or wing on the floor who you’re daring to shoot.

Pg knows that’s a win for the defense

Missed Ben mac for the corner three:

Very “unique” alignment by Rockets. A bit head scratching that they wouldn’t try and screen for Harden to get open. Or have him screen then pop open. pic.twitter.com/ArE2R4LYfX

Rookie who’s shooting 44% from three apparently

the third alltime ncaa scorer!

Ha I don’t pay attention til they’re drafted

Harden never watched warriors games before?

Rockets’ James Harden on the attention he’s seeing: “The whole season they’re running doubles teams at me. I’ve never seen that in an NBA game where you’ve got really good defenders & someone else running at the top of the key. Y’all let me know the last time you’ve seen that.” pic.twitter.com/eVxRUgds76

loolllllllll

how was dude not fired LAST year

incredible camera work there btw

wow

D’Antoni is gonna go to Chicago and they’ll go 49-33

that does sound appealing

The last minute of that Bulls game was amazing. Is Lavine good or was last night an aberration?

hes got skills but also flaws

Lavine is a scoring machine whose defense is maybe the worst in the NBA. I think in the right situation it could work
