NBA Highlights | Welcome Back Steph Halfcourt Curry

I know Dame has incredible range but nobody does this. Quick release off balance from 30+ feet. One of a kind. NOBODY can do it like Steph. Dame and Trae are ridiculous with their range but Steph just makes it look like second nature. It's insane to me how quick his release his no matter the distance is, even after all this time.

Doc Rivers used the 2-3 zone a ton against Rockets tonight. Completely leave PJ Tucker all game, effectively cutting off space for Harden and Westbrook to drive.

Rockets last made a three-pointer with 1:30 left in the first quarter. They've played almost two full quarters since and have missed 19 straight threes, going 2-29 overall. Rocket starters are 1-20.

Harden: 16/7/4 (4-17 FG, 0-8 3PT)

Through 3 quarters and with the Sixers up 16, Al Horford is a +34

Zion Williamson is averaging 24 points on an average playtime of 29 minutes per game in only 17 games he’s played this season.

With an elite defende like Kawhi guard Harden 1-on-1 without doubling, then Westbrook's man can sag off to dare him to shoot from distance. That is likely their game plan for future playoff opponents. Watching the Clippers tonight, Doc Rivers trusted in Kawhi and Paul George to stick to Harden single coverage without double, which allow Westbrook's defender to dare him to shoot while cheat to help out. Other playoff teams in the West should take note, that is how you beat the Rockets.
