Ain't looking good for the Rocket boys:

Good news: Rockets advance to Western Conference Finals. Bad

news: Houston is 0-4 against Golden State this season.

ESPN

Warriors swept Rockets in regular season 4-0. Teams to sweep 4-0 in the regular season and then meet in any round have a 55-6 series record.

Warriors went 4-0 against Rockets this season and outscored

them by an average of 15.3 PPG Stephen Curry: shot 58% from

22nd time in NBA history that top 2 players in MVP vote face off in playoffs (Stephen Curry vs James Harden). MVP is 14-7 in those series.

I believe LBJ is the best since MJ. I've enjoyed watching him and enjoyed seeing him lose some too. But, that Cavs team is loaded. That second group for the Cavs could be it's own team and probably push for the 8th seed. I just wished LBJ would've done it with less help.

i wouldn't call it loaded with Varejao/Love completely out, & Kyrie playing at like 60% on a sprained foot and having tendinitis in his knee

last preseason they said this about cleveland that they'd be a 6 seed or so with their talent and kyrie couldn't lead them he couldn't mesh well with his teammates especially waiters and that cost a team with playoff talent to have a poo record. Kyrie is learning from lebron how to lead they probably wouldn't make playoffs without lebron. I mean after all, LeBron is who wanted the Cavs to get J.R. and Shump when the media was calling J.R. untouchable and locker room poisoning

    • I've really only begun to pay attention this week being that training camp is looming, so I was personally caught off guard by the fact that Nic Scourton remains unsigned. That's not necessarily bad news, but it's not necessarily good news either. Apparently it's a thing with this year's draft class. "Of the 32 players selected in the second-round, 30 remained unsigned and the clock is ticking. "Already we've seen one second-round pick hold out from the start of training camp with that player being Los Angeles Chargers' wide receiver Tre Harris. Harris did not report with the rest of the Chargers' rookies on Saturday due to his contract situation, a issue that could impact nearly every other team in the league. "For the Panthers, defensive end Nic Scourton is the player to watch for when rookies start showing back up to the team facilities next week. "The 51st overall pick is one of the 30 second-rounders who has yet to sign their rookie contract and the reason why is due to the other two that have actually signed. "Cleveland Browns' linebacker Carson Schwesinger and Houston Texans' wide receiver Jayden Higgins each signed fully guaranteed contracts as the first and second players drafted in the second-round. Prior to this year, second-round picks never received a fully guaranteed deal, only players selected in the first-round." https://atozsports.com/nfl/carolina-panthers-news/panthers-nic-scourton-contract-second-round-pick-training-camp-hold-out-tre-harris/ So, I suppose we'll see what's what pretty soon. It's definitely something to monitor.
    • overwhelming majority of kids in travel ball aren't getting scholarships though because most teams are rec caliber (and not watched by scouts)    and parents/leagues sort of helped create this system and narrative IMO where travel ball is now oversaturated and most of it is simply expensive rec ball.  is travel beneficial for some athletes to get more exposure? Sure. The ones travel actually existed for.   I still think travel has expanded entirely too broad at this stage......where they will now have 5 teams per year in your backyard area pending they can get parents to write those checks.   Ain't no scout ever laying eyes on 90%+ of the kids in travel ball at this stage of where it has morphed into.     
    • Im really curious to see how the defense is going to look once its playing with some leads.
