The evolution of basketball over the years has been amazing to watch, from the decreasing importance of lumbering big men and halfcourt offenses to what we have nowadays in teams pushing the pace and jacking up threes at historic rates. The Rockets, perhaps more than almost any other team except the Golden State Warriors, embody this new NBA in its most advanced form.
I’m not sure why this game is even scheduled at this point. Can’t we just give the Rockets the W and call it a break? All I want from this game is no injuries.
