Rockets DEMOLISH Celtics With RED HOT Offense & ELITE Defense | Can Houston SUSTAIN This Dominance?
Houston Rockets stun Boston Celtics 128-101 behind the NBA's hottest offense. Can this elite three-point shooting sustain a championship run?
Host Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) breaks down how the Rockets have become the league's number one offense, shooting an unsustainable(?) 45% from three-point range while dominating at the free throw line with the NBA's biggest differential. The analysis covers Kevin Durant's hyper-efficient 26 points on just 11 shots, Alperen Sengun's playmaking despite offensive struggles, and the team's improved pick-and-roll execution without Fred VanVleet.
Key topics include Amen Thompson's lockdown defense on Jaylen Brown, Ime Udoka's tactical shift away from zone schemes, and Jabari Smith Jr.'s career-best four-block performance that has teammates calling him a future Defensive Player of the Year. The discussion examines how corner threes, free throw advantages, and defensive versatility are separating Houston from last season's squad.
Discover why the Rockets' balanced attack and defensive improvements make them legitimate contenders in the Western Conference.
