'17 Cavs vs. '18 Rockets, who ya got?2017 we were pretty much a juggernaut too.
I've seen both teams thrown in the hat for "GOAT team to never win a title". This exact question was asked over at the realgm board and the consensus was the Rockets.
I know they went 7 with the Warriors while we only managed 5, but I don't know; Iggy being out most of that series was huge for the Rockets. Plus I feel that they didn't play with any urgency this year because of the confidence they had in their abilities. In '17 they went full throttle because they wanted to avenge the stench of the previous year.
I just don't see the Rockets having an answer for LeBron and with both him and Kyrie going God-mode vs. a choking Harden and injured Paul, I think we'd take that series.
We got so complacent after winning. I foolishly thought we just needed to stay the course and improve internally, but we really should have revamped and doubled down once KD was acquired.
