A lot of shade was thrown on the Rockets for never winning these series. But the rockets were the only team willing to truly go up against this unfair and unbeatable Warriors team w/ KD.

You in all the comments crying and making excuses. My brother these bums had no chance against Golden state. Eric Gordon and Chris Paul were making miracle shots both series which helped stay on the game. U in other comments talking about harden broke the game and is the best scorer. Homie has more free throws made in his career than actual field goals. Playoff time he either dribbles past u for a floater or shoots the 3. Has no game after that...easy to read. He was never going to get anywhere

@@MuckNoyanot to disrespect you or your point, but Ray Allen was much more than just a shooter, the reason why Ray Allen was such a threat was because he could score from anywhere, he could posterize you on any given day, or he could shoot 5-5 from 3 if he felt like it, he wasn’t NEARLY as good as a 3 point shooter as modern day guards, the reason why he hit so many 3s early in his career was because he was a slasher, they either had to let him drive and hope that someone was there, or deal with the wide open 3
