Do we not remember how easy the Rockets were to defend when you could make their role players try to beat you?

Do we also not remember how close the Rockets were really were to us in the standings (and in the series)?

I'm just saying, the Rockets desperately needed an infusion on talent. Walker definitely has it. In my mind, this vaults them ahead of us in the rankings, just because they were so very close to begin with and AW is so much better than the other spares they put out there with Yao and McGrady.

It's not the end of the world. It's okay if they are marginally better than us. It doesn't mean we don't have a chance against them. But if we fact them 4-5 again, AW helps them more than he hurts them.

Why the AW hate?
