Nah, if Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks were still here with FVV and Steven Adam’s injured, we would be a play in team at best.
With KD we made it as far as we did. Be grateful and thankful we got KD and that we made it this far with the injuries we got.
Stopped listening after buddy said OKC might sit people in the 2nd round of the playoffs
It’s sad how underrated this season has been for KD! This team over achieved name one nba top team that’ll lose their starting point guard and win 50 games? The rockets were 41-19 with Fred! He’s a huge difference maker, he can settle the offense late in games. Also get KD shot in his sweet spots. Pick and roll with sengun/amen come on now this offense is night and day once he suits up.
This was garbage
How can u say to get pass Okc when we didn’t get pass golden state
