What if I told you Ryan Anderson and Eric Gordon never joined the Houston Rockets?
What if instead of the two sharpshooters, the Rockets instead picked up Al Horford and Kent Bazemore liked they originally planned. Would it all have turned out the same?
The answer is no, not even close.
One of the things that have made the Rockets what they are this season is James Harden having three shooters on the floor with him, along with a pick-and-roll big man. This combination has made the Rockets one of the hardest teams to stop on a night in and night out basis.
