Pacers rebuild after the Paul George trade
The 2018 Rockets might’ve been the greatest team in NBA history to never reach the Finals. Bc of CP3 injury, plus the 27 straight missed 3s in g7, that literally killed their title hopes.
Yeah that's facts I definitely remember the 2017-18 Houston Rockets the way they were playing with the best record of 65-17 definitely a NBA finals favored team but unfortunately though game 7 will always hunt them plus unfortunately the Golden State Warriors were always in their way
Excuses because he also had a chance in 2019 to beat them without kd and he was fully healthy and still couldn’t beat them🥱🥱
@@ElJoker3000_ that 2019 roster is not as good as 2018. The '18 rockets is more balanced.
I’ll never let that go if cp3 never got hurt they would of won it all
@@jay2k480 he had his chance to win it all on 2021 and still lost stop making excuses
7:56 You funny for choosing that pic 😂😂😂😂
Epic fail
James Harden was a top 3 MVP finalist 5 times in his career
2015: 2nd
2017: 2nd
2018: 1st
2019: 2nd
2020: 3rd
Should’ve won in 2019 tbh
Indeed
And the Beef with Giannis started Since 2019.
Reason? KIA MVPs
Also, why Curry is Harden’s worst nightmare?
2015 - WCF
2016 - 1st rd
2018 - WCF
2019 - Semis
kevin durant, and failing to show up when it matters
The warriors said that their strategy was to let Harden go off in the 1st half, and get him tired for the 2nd half
Egos got the best of them, especially Harden.
Very unfortunate
Not like he had all star help or anything
That sam dekker photo was foul 😭
😭😭
Epic fail
It seemed like only yesterday when I went to watch Rockets Clippers in 2019. Funny how Russ, Harden, Kawhi and PG are teammates now. Today is not enough having at least 2 all-stars in ur team (expect for Denver ig)
Teams are getting better
atleast Today's clippers ain't 2018 cavs where situations were heated, it would've worked too if they had chemistry and would sound like a joke if u showed that roster to a fan from the early 2010s, Loved the few games dwade and Bron player as a cavs and the subway meme just glad le bron still had the power to force his way to the finals that year and would've won if the Rockets made it rather than the Dubs, another exciting what if but since we don't do what ifs harden remained an ice cold shooter
Hey Jay I just wanted to say I always look forward to seeing your videos keep up with the good work
Very much appreciated man
You’re doing a great job with these NBA timelines. Keep up the good work. Love every single minute of them.
Very much appreciated man
Great video Jay Jay Warvz keep your videos coming 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you very much man
@@jaywarvz no problem bruh love your videos man
Been waiting for this
Thanks a lot
nice video this morning coming out with a banger!
Thank you for the support!
This is a video i have been waiting for love the vids keep it up 👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much
Keep it up I love these videos your the best doing them
Very much appreciated
It looked weird seeing Harden briefly play under Stephen Silas before being traded to Brooklyn
He played out of shape
Harden's era in Houston was a complete bust.....too busy going to strip clubs and his ego got in the way of Championships
Very unfortunate
Yeah, but for rocket's fans it's something to cheer for after the Yao era. They MIGHT be in the finals IF cp3 wasn't injured
Eyyyyyy another quality video bro!!!!
Thank you very much!
@@jaywarvz welcomeee bro!!!!
Just subscribed, amazing content. I wish to see a Rockets video covering the Olajuwon era to complete their 40 years history. Thanks!
Noted man. Thank you for the support!
That Sam Dekker pic is crazy 😂💀
Epic fail
Im not a Rocket fan, but that game 7 is always going to taunt me. So much unlucky for all those years
Fr but we on the come up now
Very unfortunate
THE VOICES IN MY HEAD NONONONONO "you are my sunshine☺️my only sunshine☺️"-'-"- She know what she wanted without being caught🗣️🔥
Kobe Bryant said it best, Harden’s style of play is good enough to win games, but not enough to win a championship. But also, it's not just hardens style of play but his personality as well holding him back from a ring.
Definitely man
First part is correct, 2nd part is just narrative and agenda, what do u mean personality?? Bro does not have loyal all star teammates and thats his fault?
@@GXprogamercorrect
Harden is annoying, but if Kobe played against that Warriors team for half a decade… he would lose just as badly.
Yayyy new vid ❤
Thank you!
9:41 "Dwight was looking for a place where he would be loved 💕😍❤️💖💗" aren't we all? And the great history lessons keep on coming, great great 😃👍 work Jay Warvz Chicago Illinois rocks with this content 😎
Thank you very much for your support man
Missing 27 straight threes is crazy
So tough
Like the blazers the houston had opportunities to do more with tmac and yao or harden and paul but injuries hurt them at crucial times.
Very unfortunate
I had to pause at 7:57 . Didnt expect that lmao
Epic lol
If the Rockets had defeated the Warriors in the 2018 NBA Playoffs Conference Finals, they might have won the championship.
It's a shame that James Harden and Chris Paul didn't get championship rings.
They will face Lebron and the Cavs
What could have been
2018 would’ve been the year but the damn warriors got lucky
2019 too when KD was out but they sold
James Harden is the ONLY current player to never miss the playoffs
Very unfortunate
@@bryy6684 The Rockets shut out Steph Curry for the entire first half of Game 6 (also with Durant out injured), but could only manage a tie score at the half.
@@ryanevans8566 Ik u trynna disagree w me cuz ur agreeing w me
omg , awesome!
Thanks man
second video i watch and the second time is the first sentence from the player all you need to know about him - perfect
Bruh that Sam dekker picture tho 😂
Hilarious!
NBA Suggestion Kristaps Porzingis the draft hate, trades, injuries and the rebuild
Noted
@@jaywarvz have you posted a new orleans Pelicans playoff failures
2018 was our year man, CP3 with his annual playoff injury 🤦🏿♂️ not to mention that awful 3pt stretch of missed shots in game 7
Indeed a curse
Requests beside the Miami Heat Mourning era (don't forget to start from 1989 in that timeline)
KG T-Wolves Era
Stockton and Malone Era (split them into parts so it won't take 30 minutes or 1 hour)
Reggie Miller Pacers Era
Showtime Lakers Era
Thanks for these ideas
One biggest " WHAT IF " Chris Paul not injured in Game 5 vs. Warriors ?
Indeed
Sam Dekker got me laugh MAN! HAHAHA!
Epic fail lol
Even as a GSW fan, I admit that if Rockets were healthy and not chokers, they couldve beat Lebron in finals
Probably
Probably should’ve put pat bev or pj ticker in the pic, since they were with harden longer than lin
The reason I put Lin was due to his hype when rockets signed him. They were expecting him to be their face before harden's arrival
2018 rockets 3-2 lead againts Golden state but blew and Cp3 injury🤦🏻♂️💀 and choke
Very unfortunate
11:44 dammnnn seven humans for CP3, now I understand why PatBev hate him so much 😂😂😂
Indeed lol
Soon as I seen the Sam dekker pic I bust out laughing 😂
Epic fail
The worst part is that we should have won it all when Tmac and Yao got hurt, and when CP3 got hurt
Nah I don’t think y’all was beating a determined Kobe and Lakers. They did take the Lakers to game 7 in 2009 without tmac and Yao but the Lakers didn’t really take them serious. Those 2015 and 2018 teams were supposed to win it all especially 2018.
Very unfortunate
that harden trade was probably one of the greatest in nba history. really unleashed him and made him what is today, one of the greatest ever
Tapped his superstar potential
So happy the rockets didn’t give up with harden to build a championship team vs the best team alive
Yes
Bruh why you gotta do Sam Dekker like that 😂
His only highlight lol
love Harden as a Spurs fan he brought excitement to the NBA in the regular season, would've won a ring if the Warriors didn't have KD and choked same thing goes to the 2017 Kawhi less Spurs a lot of things would've happened in those playoffs years but it is what it is , CP3 is doing better while Harden is having fun in LA
Very unfortunate man
7:57 that photo was 💀
Epic fail
Rockets always missed the playoffs with the winning record in the early 2010s but T-Mac and YaO couldn’t stay healthy. They was really a star away from being conference contenders
Very unfortunate
Can you please do the rebuild thunder after Russ/PG left to who they are now? We know their making playoffs
Noted man
Look at his stats percentages always drop in the playoffs, living with Houston we witnessed first hand how different regular season James and post season James were
The perils of a heliocentric offense, where playoff opponents have advance scouting and game to game adjustments to come up with tactics to wear down an (exclusively) on-ball scorer.
The only teammate Harden ever really had off-ball chemistry with was Nick Collison in the early, coming off the bench in OKC days.
Playoff choker

2018 Rockets make the finals and LeBron wins another ring. There was no way peak LeBron was losing to them. Took 4 all stars and JR's brain fart to take that man down 😂
Well rockets will win vs cavs
Ya'll did Sam Deckker dirty. LOL 😂
Epic fail
You should do a timeline of how the wizards failed Bradley Beal
Sure
Missing 27 straight 3pts still insane
Very unfortunate
I’ve grown to appreciate James, I think he took a lot of heat for leaving the Thunder and the team that could have been.
That Skip take was a rare win.
Are you stupid lmfao he got traded from the thunder, why would he get hate for that when it wasn’t in his control
Agree with you man
@@jaywarvz why’d you delete my comment lmfao
What comment
Best team not to win vs the beat team acquired
Yeah man
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Yow
❤❤❤❤❤
❤️❤️❤️
If cp3, harden and howard was on the same team it would Change the rockets
Definitely man
8:00 bruh 😂😂😂😂 sam Dekker's face
Epic fail
Also hypothetically, what if Rockets and Celtics face in 2018 finals who would win in 7 games
Rockets
What if cavs and rockets face in the finals 2018
Who would win in 7 games
Rockets for sure

19:26 2020 Westbrook : didn't want to play with anymore
2023 Westbrook : He played With Harden At Clippers
True
The 2018 rockets are one of the greatest team to never reach the finals also 2019 harden was a different breed
Very unfortunate
2018 regardless who won in WCF, they can beat Lebron and Cavs
As for Celtics, they were still young and unexperienced yet
Indeed
Dekker got decked
Damn!
Timeline Jazz 1984-2003
Sure
facsinating
Thanks man
How the Rockets failed to succeed? Two words: James Harden, a man whenever needed by his team in the playoffs always chooses to go stealth mode WITHOUT any exceptions.
Always coming up short
Do lakers how they got rid of Westbrook and to get DLO to make the playoffs in 2023
Noted man
Sadly his finally matured when he past his prime
And chasing for rings
Those warriors traumatized that rockets.
Indeed
Hornets fall since 2016 playoff appearance
Noted
He should have followed tucker to Milwaukee he would finally won a championship
True man
Kevin Martin on nba2k13 was busted
Automatic
Once again, they could've won it all, but Paul got injured when they needed him more
Very unfortunate
@@jaywarvz Indeed. Harden deserved that championship
Houston could have won 2018 wfc but game 7 they missed 27 consecutive shots
Yeah. They should have adjusted their gameplan during the game
Reason 2 cause cp0 was injury
Short Answer-
The Golden State Warriors
The End
So tough
Lakers Next please
Soon man
Soon man
harden era was the best👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hakeem era
Houston had a big problem.
Indeed
James Harden has been hot 🗑️ ever since he left OKC.
Look at his current to this present time as evidence.
Yeah man
Not saying Harden doesn’t choke in the playoffs. Bc he does it yearly. But the gm is a bone head for pairing Harden with 2 ball dominant guards 2x. But never went out to get a skilled big.
So tough
Thank god Harden’s play style failed to win a champion, that would be an insult to basketball
Harden still deserves to win
Harden wasted his prime
Not really. He had a great supporting cast. He just couldn't get past the warriors
up
Yow
They should of won the championship in 2018
But choked
Early Gang 📢
Yow
Kobe Bryant is 1000% right along with T-MAC ...Harden WILL NEVER WIN A CHAMPION BECAUSE OF HIS WAY STYLE TO PLAY
Edit : One last thing .... HE DIDN'T PLAY DEFENSE AS WELL
So tough
i love lebron
Mee too
One of the biggest fraud franchises in professional sports. This team will never, ever win another championship.
Very unfortunate
sam dekker😆
Damn
8:03 sam dekker's only career highlight
Sadly yeah
People will probably disagree with me but harden never got the help he truly needed. We were always missing a good wing or at least that 3rd player that every championship team has
Still a deep team
Kevin Martin is actually Hoppin in Houston
He's a bucket
Back in 2018 Western Conference Finals. Houston Rockets was Collapse their missed 27 Straight 3-Pointer Attempt. 🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱
Very unfortunate
