    Houston wins one game by 30 and now the Spurs run is over and Houston is sweeping? Come on SBR.

    This is the Rockets we are talking about. Spurs won't go away quietly. Pop will make adjustments. Spurs won't shoot this bad again. Rockets probably won't shoot this well two games in a row on the road.

    caught standing still. They can't cover the pick n' roll. Pau Gasol
    is an old joke in the paint. Aldridge and Leonard are focused on
    trying to score, not on figuring out the Rockets offense. You can't.
    Parker is still quick but only in spurts, not constantly.
    It's 4 seconds from a Spurs perimeter basket to a fast break, long pass
    and bang - Rockets respond, this is demoralizing San Antonio.
    Pops can't stop them in the half-court. They are too good !
    Too fast, too accurate and too automatic in their execution of complex
    offensive schemes that D'Antoni has taught them.

    Rockets ML 205
    Pretty much word for word what I saw.

    Dantoni was made for today's NBA and is the perfect coach for Harden's style. All offensive focus.
