Ariza will be having a very tough time containing Thompson and his perpetual movement without the ball. For Paul it will be the biggest challenge of his basketball career...how to contain the 2x MVP while providing the necessary Leadership needed by Houston.
Lets see if Harden will live up to the billing of his MVP candidacy or will he just wilt under pressure just like last year.
For me this series is THE championship.
Harden will have either Thompson or Iggy guarding him.
Paul will have his hands full chasing Curry.
Tucker is playing extremely well hitting corner treys for the Rockets but he's too short to guard Durant.
Capela feast on lab passes from Harden and Paul but Draymond Green is there to bang him up.
I can easily say GSW first 5 is too much for the Rockets to contain but Hou has a deeper bench so they need to get to Game 7 to dethrone GSW.
