I was leaning towards throwing some money on the Rockets to win the title at 12/1. Now I really wish I would have.
I know the fit is weird but Harden and Russ know how to work together - they’re both super smart - and this is probably their last chance to win a title. I lean towards thinking this works and makes their ceiling higher than it has ever been.
It’s very easy to imagine a scenario where Kawhi or PG goes down, the Lakers depth kills them in the playoffs, and the Rockets sneak in.
And I think I’d take their experience over Milwaukee or Philly in the finals.
If it works, it could be awesome. I think Russ will have to change the most of the 2, they both just suck off ball so much.
