      I think he got a promotion or something, so rather than making videos he is coaching/managing people in making them. Then since everyone missed him he is making side appearances. I agree it isn't the same, and would like for him to still do some videos that is just him, but time is limited and I guess the company decided having him have a piece of a lot of things is more valuable than full control of one thing.

      AKay they gassed out without CP3.
      CP3 relieved Harden, Ariza, Gordon, and Green, and sort of PJ Tucker too and also helped keep the scoring more consistent.
      that combined with the warriors being able to rest, because they had curry, kd, and klay they were able to rotate them out so they didn't get as tired.

    • @LeeGHThomas

      they didn't. Harden had a 3 that was wiped over a "non-shooting foul" during that 27 shot streak. Game wasn't thrown, at least not by the rockets. Shooting rhythm is real, and houston didnt have it going into the 4th.

    @mazdakmina9493 Рік тому +19

    I went back and took a look at the video and tried to figure out how those 27 straight 3's were missed. The major theories everyone kept saying was, "their knees/legs gave out due to fatigue" or "they panicked and began rushing" or (related) "they started forcing up bad shots." I checked for others as well, but for simplicity's sake, I'll keep it to those three and give a few *very basic* stats on each.
    Defining "their knees gave out due to fatigue" is tough, but generally, I watched each and every shot, and in *no* instance did I see a player fail to get at least half a foot off the ground. I believe it's safe to say that, even if they were tired, it definitely was *not* causing them to not get enough elevation. In addition, the shots weren't coming up short, nor were they consistently long either. It was pretty back and forth between "too short," "too long," "off to the left," and "off to the right." In fact, *several* hit the *inside* rim and/or went in-and-out (and, it should be noted, several also were *way* off, so yes, there was a *range* to how close/far they were to scoring on each one throughout the *entire* streak. Although, I should also note that Harden's shots were far more likely to come up short than long, so it's possible *he* was tired and *his* legs finally gave out - but I can't say the same for the rest of the team)!
    As for "they panicked and began rushing," I decided to simply define this as "they shot before they were set." So I looked through all 27 again, and this time, I counted how often they put up a shot in which could be defined as "their feet weren't set." Out of all 27, I only counted *two* that I would define being in that category! So, simply put, I definitely do not believe *that* was the reason either.
    And finally, I looked at "they forced bad shots," which I took to mean, "they shot too many contested threes and not enough open ones." Without going too much into detail, I can say that I would only count *five* of those 27 shots to be "forced/contested" (with only two hitting a defender's hand) - and for the three that were not blocked/deflected, it was simply a case of trying to draw a foul (or in one case out of the three, were *not* trying to, but *did* receive a big bump while in midair - you can debate whether it was a foul or not, but it certainly affected the shot) instead of actually shooting with the intention of scoring (and also, all three were by Harden, and all three of those were the ones he shot that were "way off" without being blocked). In addition, I counted *eight* shots that were *wide* open (i.e., there was not a defender within *five feet* of the shooter)! In other words, they were *all* very much *the exact* kind of shots the Rockets were known for making! They were *not* (by most peoples' account of "forcing") forcing their shots on *more than 20* of the ones they took during that streak!
    So if they weren't forcing, the fatigue wasn't affecting their elevation, and they weren't rushing (and they weren't doing any of the other theories, i.e., they weren't passing up open shots to drive to the hoop - hence why they had so many threes to miss in the first place), what happened?
    The best I can come up with is simply this: players have hot and cold streaks. Four of the six players on this team who shot during that Game 7 cold streak had cold streaks of missing 4, 5, or 6 threes in a row earlier in *this series alone* (and Harden had one in which he missed 9 in a row earlier in the series). So I counted how many each person shot during that steak, and the count was the following: Harden 10, Gordon 7, Ariza 6, Tucker 2, Green 1, and Johnson 1! Basically, Harden, Gordon, *and* Ariza *all* hit one of their cold streaks *at the same time* (and Tucker, Green, and Johnson missed a few threes in between)! And yes, *maybe* you can say that *Harden's* legs gave out, *plus* that he "tried to draw a foul" too often (though, again, that *still* does not account for *the other 17* threes his teammates missed during that streak; i.e., an additional *51* possible points missed out on even *without* Harden's contribution). But yes, that's basically the best I can deduce for what happened!
    Again, I totally agree, it's beyond sad and unfortunate that it happened at the cruelest possible moment (during arguably the biggest game the franchise had played in 23 years)! Either way, such a sad way to end what was one of the most historic seasons of all time!

      DJ Gen what? The rockets didn’t have anything to do with the name choke city besides being down 3-1 in a series which they won. It’s because the Oilers has the biggest choke job in nfl playoffs history and the Astros had choked away a series that year. The term Choke City comes from a Headline that was printed in the local paper when the rockets went down 3-1 against the suns lol they were never called that. The entire city of Houston was called that for a week before the rockets came back and won the series

      WillJM81280 why would you change the rules he plays with? Wilt and Kareem wouldn’t be very good simply based on the rules we play with. We play with newer rules and he utilized those rules better than anyone. If you try to close out on the perimeter he’ll blow by you for either an easy bucket or a foul and two shots at the line, both of which he’ll make. If you double team he’ll laser a perfect pass to the open man. If you don’t close out on the perimeter he’s got an easy 3 pointer right over your head. He’s borderline unguardable. Kobe even said as much, Harden and Durant were the two dudes he never figured out what to do with when they had the ball.

    This reminds me of the early '90's when in the play offs Stark was on a roll, I think he had 4 3 pointers in the last quarter. His play had kept the Knicks in the game. Then needing a 3 pointer on the last shot of the game to win, then Knicks coach, Pat Riley gave the ball to Starks for a 3 point shot, which he missed. NY fans didn't blame him, he was the best player that night. But the papers simply said "Stark loses game"

    Don't let this distract you from the fact that Mr. Krabs sold Sponhebob's soul for 62 cents

    A 36.2% rate of successful three-point attempts would indicate that the probability of missing 27 in a row is 0.00054%, or roughly 186,000 to 1. Even if you adjust that to 34.4%, which was the Rockets' make rate through the first 6 games of the WCF, the odds of missing 27 consecutive attempts are still 88,000 to 1. That's rough.

    Do a dorktown about Sam Rice. Inducted into the mlb hall of fame 1963. His entire family died in a tornado in 1912 then in the 20s he was one of the best pitcher and outfielder in the game batter .337. He also hid a ball in his glove to “catch” a homer into the stands

    Houston has always been this way. The late 90s when Chuck, Clyde and Hakeem were there, they shot waaay too many 3s. That team should have made the Finals in 97.

  • @AaronMichaelLong
    @AaronMichaelLong 2 роки тому +3

    The answer as to why the Rockets crumpled is simple: At the end of the series, the refs swallow their whistles, and actually let the men play. Once the other team is permitted to actually play *defense*, Moreyball dissipates like a bad dream after waking.

    The corner 3 22 ft gives the shooter less background perspective than viewing the goal with its board and box background . Yes its shorter ergo you need less lift strength force to reach it . But if your familiar with paintings renaissance development of perspective it affects DEPTH PERCEPTION . Shooting is Relaxation, Concentration, Confidence and good technique.
