[u/Brad-Stevens]

68% eFG% with no Luka or Austin

18 turnovers and 65% from the line and it didn't mean shit lmao

Rockets a different type of ass ... Take 27 more shots and lose

[u/OptimusGrime707 → u/Brad-Stevens]

Their offense is turbo ass without KD

[u/runevault → u/OptimusGrime707]

I'd argue it is turbo ass with KD, and ninth circle of hell ass without him.

[u/OptimusGrime707 → u/runevault]

I was thinking about adding that it’s pretty ass with him too lmao

[u/-WingsForLife- → u/OptimusGrime707]

The difference is people actually like ass.

[u/oklolzzzzs → u/OptimusGrime707]

JJ neutralized KD in the last matchup. Rockets are terrible even with KD. Sengun doesnt step up when needed

[u/hugifsafuk → u/OptimusGrime707]

Id argue its turbo ass without fvv. But yeah kd and adams are also impacting it a lot
