    Yes so, I forgot my password for my NeverBrokeAgain account, rip

    Yes, so talk me out of Houston winning it all. 

    Yes, I understand PJ Tucker is our centre.

    Yes, I understand Gordon is out 2 weeks(speculation), right up until playoffs start, he is back. 

    I just personally feel like bubble basketball will be different. No crowd is the main, if not, ONLY factor that everyone should consider. This is NBA. We play for the fans, all over the world and the ones that show up to arenas. No more crowd, this feels like a normal street pick up game. No crowd, no noise, higher free throw percentages and higher 3 point percentages. Also, I feel like whoever has the more energetic, supportive and loud bench will also play a major role. 

    I can go on, but rather hear what covers thinks about this play and bubble basketball.

     

    Discussion and slander welcome, please. 

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Disclaimer: I already placed the wager, I have 5 hours to cash out until its locked in.

    $2500 to win $37,500

    NBA Is scripted... Houston has no chance to win... Give me one reason why the League would have Houston win let alone even make the Finals... Especially since the League needs to make up all the money they lost, Houston does not sell what so ever... Who enjoys watching Houston play besides their fans?

    How many years of history does it take to see that the Rockets will not win the chip?

    Ok, Houston isn't that good. Both LA teams are far better to start off with bud 

    Harding sucks when it counts, history backs that up - When Durrant went down for GS it didn't matter because Harding stopped scoring.He is great when it doesn't count.
