The Houston Rockets Are Going to Win the NBA Championship
Yes, the Oklahoma City Thunder are going to break the all-time regular season record for wins…but just like the last team who did it, that will not translate to the ultimate goal in the postseason.

Nope OKC but they got the best chance
KD with a 3rd ring and potentially 3 finals mvp if sengun doesn’t get it would bump him into my top 15 maybe top 10 all time
lol
Ben cancels with anyone who talks to Nick. Fine by me…go ahead and isolate yourself in your neocon Bushite bubble.
Jokic beat them by himself putting 34 points
while Sengun and KD put 27 combined! Without CB and AG.
If everyone is healthy, Rockets can not beat Nuggets or OKC….
Love the deep dupe making this an extremely reasonable hot take. Can’t wait for the playoffs!
11:18 now that's a plot … i am here for it…
but I won't drop my hope for Nuggets 😀
Kevin Durant has proven that he cannot lead a team by himself. There is no way this is happening plus he’s 37. The thunder are the next dynasty if one is coming. Plus, if the Clippers decide to let go of James Harden and blow the whole thing up and he somehow ends up back on his old team then the chances of them winning the championship go away instantly and they have no shot.
Realistically, if they stay the way, they are conference finals Is their ceiling
Well SKAP it’s clearly the Denver Nuggets if they’re healthy that are going to beat the OKC team Denver would beat the Rockets in five games if they have all their players
Okc will be the first team to threepeat since 2000-2002 Lakers
Wrong. They have Kevin Durant and his bum ass ain't getting another ring
I'm so tired of hearing you claim people are having all-time historic something or another at the beginning of the season. You won't know that's true until the season ends you absolute moron
This is going against everything the media has people believing.
I think you're absolutely right. It's going to be fun. This doesn't even really hit on Jabari Smith Jr.
OKC is gonna go 77-5. If they don’t I’ll buy a Bronny James jersey and wear it with shame.
I'm rooting for anyone over the Thunder. Nuggets and Rockets especially. But not the Lakers until Lebron leaves.
You Gotta go live big dawg it's a special celebration tonight lol! Lebron with an epic 4-17/0-5 and 8 points performance! Now you can GUARANTEE sports media tomorrow is going to be idiot upon idiot talking about how "Lebron never cared about his streak", how foolish were we to ever consider such a thing
Boy you don't know ball if you think Houston going to the championship
Nah they won't at all facts Thunder are just to powerful right now Rockets at best are a WCF team and that it sorry they're not winning it at all.
You make a compelling argument, as always. I love OKC, but I’m hoping they get their fair share of competition. I hour that the end of the season showed us several strong teams that will sincerely battle for the ring.
Well, well, well,… 😂😂😂😅
I'd never put my money on KD ,that's a terrible bet 😂
I agree, Skap. Thunder aren't winning this year.
they should trade for giannis
No they are not. OKC is. KD is a bus rider. The team don't have Steph Curry to carry him.
OKCs offense is streaky but when theyre off, the def can cover it.
Hou I think can go lb for lb. Can wear them down.
If Knicks can land freak, that’ll be exciting
You’ll say anything to discredit SGA and the thunder. SGA must have slept with your wife skap lol; because why else are you making a video every other day to discredit SGA and what he’s doing in OKC. And it’s strange that you discredit SGA any chance you get, yet you didn’t bring up Luka’s 9 turnovers and -25 plus/minus against the suns; nor did you bring up the fact that Luka is load managing against Toronto….
With KD in the playoffs I don’t think so…
This is not his worst take, there’s been worse but, id love to debate him on this
This ridiculous take is equivalent to when max kellermen said “fate of the world on the line, the aliens have the death-beam pointed at the earth; and we only have one shot to save us, I want Iguodala!”
You’re one heck of a troll skap lmao
They have what it takes to win the championship, but I don't think they will.
I like my rockets but we not better. I will say okc has trouble guarding sengun he beats up chet and ih cant guard him either. Rockets have numerous defenders as well and a all nba first team defender in amen go give sga trouble. Rockets this year have been very good at blitzing and doubling the other teams best perimeter player and forcing anyone else to beat them. We also destroy everyone on the boards too
If they do win it, it'll be good for the league. The NBA will finally slowly return to the traditional meta of having 2 bigs on the floor.
I am genuinely sick and tired of having 4 wings and a big as the league's usual starting lineups(95% of the league, that is).
Nah it’s either Denver or OKC
Nobody can beat Choke-KC in the playoffs coz the refs are there to bail them out when things get dicey or make sure they win by 50 points
I agree. There are a few elite teams- more than usual and houston just has so many multi faceted scorers. Love thompson and that sheppard kid is nice as hell. Obviously KD is KD AND sengun is sharp and elite. Im a lifelong spurs fan and respect that the rockets have consistently been competitive but i think this rockets squad is better than the harden chris paul iteration and second only to the dreams team. Theyre a fun and tenacious team. They do not fuck around.
The west, as usual, is stacked and okc wont have any easy trip. Spurs are coming, lakers are looking good (dammit) and denver is still capable of a great run. Some of the mid-ranked western teams would be leading the east and would feast out there.
Sheppard and thomson are gonna be elite for years to come. So is segun but great back court and strong front court. Savvy.
And ya know- never count the dubs out. Ni championship run but they can mix and mess up some teams season in the post season if the make it. And as a kawhi fan- whats going on with the clips is a fucking clown show. They had a four year window and thats closed now
Didn't Murray drop 52 a couple of nights ago? Jokic, Murray and Gordon are the best big 3 of the league in my opinion.
Don’t care Le bron is on the lakers, and durant is on the rockets,
Go Lions 👑🦁💙
OKC has entered the chat!
Hot as hell right out the gate Skap
Will certainly be an interesting fold in KD's legacy. Let's hope they face off against OKC or Denver in the playoffs for a great series
Bro just talked for 15mins and didnt even mention Steven Adams impact to the team. Rockets aint winning anything without him.
I'm not sure they can even eliminate the Lakers or Spurs without their point guard.
We’re coping for anything to not believe in okc
First round exit
