Your analysis is over dramatic Senator. You would have every team in purgatory. Two years in a row the Rockets have been on the cusp of beating the Warriors. Last year, Paul’s hamstring was a big blow when they were up 3-2 with home court advantage. And Capela didn’t take a huge step back this year, in fact it was a step forward in the season. Playoffs were different as they went small and he wasn’t that effective.
IIRC two years you were saying should have dealt Harden when his value was highest. Instead we have had two years of incredibly competitive basketball, just losing to a great team.
When you’re this close you don’t give up. You make the changes you can and come back more determined IMO.
