I’ve always thought Houston can get teams with this small ball gimmick, but would they be able to maintain their advantage over a 7 game series. We’ll see. Will be interesting if Westbrook comes back soon.

The only reason I SUPPOSE I might want the Lakers to play Houston, is I do think playing them is a tough adjustment, which makes them maybe slightly less prepared for the WCF, and maybe the weird small ball lineup is an interesting matchup with the big Lakers roster. But if Houston can’t even get out of the 1st round, I don’t think they would’ve put up much of a fight against the Lakers.
