What are the Rockets' chances without Chris Paul? Are Kevin Durant's isolation plays bad for the Warriors?
Our 5-on-5 panel breaks down the twists and turns of the Western Conference finals.
1. Is this series more about the Rockets or more about the Warriors?
Kevin Pelton, ESPN Insider: Absolutely Houston. I think there was a lot of skepticism about whether Houston could compete on a stage like this given the Rockets' playoff history (and Chris Paul's before arriving in Houston). Whatever ultimately happens in this series, the Rockets have absolutely removed that kind of doubt.
