Well, they’re about to lose the likely three-time NBA Finals MVP to the Knicks, so I doubt they win a fourth title in a row next season.

I’m not even on the Rockets side about officiating or anything, but I just can’t wait for these Warriors to finally go away. It’s good basketball and it’s been fun to watch them play together, but I’d rather have real competitive series where we don’t have to jump through ten hoops to imagine an upset. Let’s hope the Rockets at least manages to make it close and whoever comes out of the east is able to do anything against them.

Fun game. Felt tight, considering the Rockets trailed the whole time.

With Foster involved, it was surprising to see how well officiated it was. The Rockets just got outplayed. Although, speaking of the refs, a lot of that also seemed to be the Rockets gameplaying for how they’re calling the game now, which I don’t particularly like either, but eh, better than Game 1.

An underrated insane thing is Tilman Fertitta forcing Morey to waive a semi-useful player in James Ennis for luxury tax savings. Now they’re playing Austin Rivers and Gerald Green major minutes in the biggest game of their season.

I was thinking about that as Ennis was hitting shots against the Raptors last night.

Houston hanging around

Ehhh not so much
