One of the best teams ever to never win the championship

[@jacksmith602]

Probably the best

[@LanceZukie14]

Prolly the best, the only team that make it to game 7 against healthy warriors w kd

[@quintononezine4802]

Lol good one

[@BullyMaguire387]

This and the 73-9 Warriors.

[@BullyMaguire387]

@@LanceZukie14 Nah 73-9 team is the best team that never won a title, they blew 3-1 but still impressive Curry beat KD & Westbrook and almost beat Lebron in the same year he have Kyrie and Love.

[@Hay_den2005]

No one will ever be lmao

[@mcgaming8982]

One of the best offensive teams in nba history

[@MrEazyze]

History will look at this 2018 rockets team very kindly!! The fact that they actually took the warriors (most talented team of all time) to a 7th game is quite the accomplishment. If Chris Paul doesn't get injured there's a good chance they win that series and go on to win the championship

[@bigzeus3236]

Harden been my favorite player for years. RESPECT HIM!

[@bootyeatinbandit]

I miss my rockets. It's so nostalgic to see these highlights and remember the days watching them):

[@Hay_den2005]

I’ve never cried before watching sports but man we got eliminated by the warriors that shit hurt because of the realization of that was our best year to win the chip and we were just short

[@qtlogik5130]

end of 2021 and its still crazy to think the Rockets were one hamstring away from an incredible title

[@Hay_den2005]

That shit broke my heart and even missing 27 3’s in a row we still lost by only less than 10 points man wish I can go back and experience this team again I took it for granted

[@macmillerfan]

every time I see the "win or go home" above the score I just want to cry

[@rohan_3128]

It still hurts 😭

[@torinoconnor4296]

Wow

[@mrskinszszs]

They should have gotten rid of Harden and kept CP3.

[@mrskinszszs]

@Kaden Williams the offense was much better with CP3 running the floor than Harden; everybody was involved and everybody played better as opposed to standing around watching Harden dribble for 20 seconds.

[@mrskinszszs]

Great to come back to this now that cp3 is in the finals and harden is still a bum

[@baymella568]

Eric Gordon was almost in his clippers form this year

[@TheHexbugfan]

Baymella Fr. I swear to god Gordon is slept in nowadays

[@jeremykoh1676]

Would've beaten the warriors and win the title with Chris Paul

[@SolaceMcfly]

Umm no just cause because cp3 had one good game does not mean they win

[@GiTxSHuM]

Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve

[@NorthofSophia]

best rockets team ever

[@Spider-Complexion]

This team was so fun to play wit on 2K

[@SuperWizzle85]

Damn Houston gotta be the biggest “what if” team to not win the chip..

[@pacflip10]

The one year they had the depth and all their players in their prime. Injuries to CP and Mbah a Moute took away the last bit of advantage they had against the all-time great Warriors. Pair that with a terrible shooting night in a game 7 and some questionable officiating, and luck has it that they would miss their window of opportunity smh. What could have been.

[@matthew_le_27]

So Chris’s ankle breakers on steph aren’t on this?

[@LordCaltricBlue]

the NBA still hurt from those lol

[@LPjunemark]

Its a pushoff

[@santiagomena8854]

totally pushoff! anyway im with houston! love that team! Lets go rockets!

[@jamesz7743]

i really love this rocket team,love each of them. sigh after watching warrior win champion 2022 again

[@alexreid9361]

If u notice the most of the highlights is Chris Paul ,James Harden , Clint Capela which means it doesn't matter if ariza leaves that's the main 3 that matter

[@joecesareo6543]

I don't care what you say this is the best 3pt shooting team ever assembled

[@torinoconnor4296]

This was their year, they blew it

[@weishuai5260]

Damn, best rockets I’ve seen in a decade.

[@karmew32]

Just by watching this video, you can clearly understand why people hated the Warriors' decision to poach Kevin Durant from the Thunder. It wasn't just about removing a lot of excitement from the league; it was about depriving other, fairly-built teams and their leaders a chance to cement their legacies. This team is the biggest example. The 2018 Rockets were one of the greatest teams in NBA history despite not winning the championship. Just by watching them go toe-to-toe with the unfair KD Warriors, you just know that they would've steamrolled the fair, pre-KD version. Don't let the Warriors' Game 6 win in 2019 fool you; one game is not equivalent to a seven-game series, and the 2019 Rockets, while still being an elite team, were a shadow of their 2018 selves. The 2018 Rockets deserved to cruise to the title with little resistance, and they were robbed of that opportunity due to the Warriors organization essentially cheating thanks to a fluke cap spike in the summer of 2016.

[@latertater8827]

If westbrook plays to his strengths they will make the western conference finals

[@rohan_3128]

yesss

[@senkunie6523]

But sometimes westbrook can choke too because if he doesn't have any help he just force's three pointers like he did in the playoffs

[@budakcina1446]

No wonder James got mvp
