Houston Rockets Biggest Weakness Isn’t What You Think
The Houston Rockets keep winning… but there’s one small issue that could become a BIG problem in the playoffs.
In this segment, we break down a frustrating trend involving the Rockets’ baseline and sideline inbound plays — specifically the repeated “just throw it up to Kevin Durant” strategy that continues to lead to turnovers and broken possessions.
Whether it’s a lazy lob from Amen Thompson or a lack of off-ball movement, Houston’s inbound execution has been sloppy all season — and against playoff defenses, that could be costly.
We discuss:
Why inbound execution matters more than fans realize
The lack of off-ball help in key situations
Why simply relying on KD’s size isn’t sustainable
How this could hurt the Rockets in late-game playoff moments
Whether coaching adjustments are needed
It may seem small in March…
But in May? That’s a different story.
