The 2020 “Small Ball” Houston Rockets 👀 #nba #russ #jamesharden #rockets #funny #basketball

the 2020 small ball Houston Rockets were weird after starting off the season really rough and trading Clinkapella mid-season Mike De Antonio decided to run a small ball lineup the tallest guy on the floor being 6’7 Robert Coington and the center being 6’5 PJ Tucker they did this in order to optimize the spacing for guys like Russell Westbrook and James Harden who both had elite years russ averaged 278 and seven and James Harden averaged 34 points and things were going well the team was 8-2 in the small ball era that was until co hit and then the playoffs a few months after that in the second round they played the Lakers and they just got bullied off the floor because it turned out you couldn’t play small ball with LeBron James and Anthony Davis rush struggled the spacing broke down and Mike Deant Antony Daryl my Russell Westbrook and James Harden were soon out the door fun regular season team
