Very bad shooting from the Spurs, above average for the Rockets

TNT graphic just put up a graphic putting Harden's stats next to a lot of playoffs where famous individual performances lost to better teams?

No, you're dark-side intergalactic encyclopedia salesmen. Unfortunately, the home office hasn't been quite upfront with you.
Coach Pringles demands vengeance for that time the Nash Suns were gonna beat the Spurs and then Amare got up off the bench and was suspended.

It used to bug me on a philosophical level that D'Antoni Suns teams would run like they didn't give a poo poo after giving up a score. I'm glad Mr Pringles will never win anything of consequence because I'm a petty person like that

Why don't they just break Harden's nose to keep him out of the game? It worked on Nash.

The Spurs look like an 8th grade team. Why did they just take a shot with the shot clock off and like 10 seconds left or whatever? They're playing terribly.

I'm happy I can just enjoy the basketball, I don't expect the Spurs to be able to beat the Rockets. They're just a better version of the Thunder. A one man show with some decent bigs.

spurs don't have the guards to play effective small ball

don't have the bigs to punish small ball

or even just play basketball it would seem
