Close, but no cigar. Would be better if Book made his and KD put up a brick. Rockets are tough on the boards.

I think KD is one of the best scorers in league history, period. The problem was with the building of the team around him and Booker. Those two had the scoring punch. They needed three defenders put around them. The team construction was HORRIFIC. The Bradley Beal part just killed any chance to make the Booker/KD duo successful.
