    That's right, look for the negative! You'll find it, even in a 4-1 series win. It's in the somewhere, so keep digging, Ms. Downer!

    For most folks around here, "Believe" is the message that resounds. For you, I'd say, "Believe we'll lose" is your motto. I can't say I get that mentality. OKC is a really really good defensive team with a really good defensive coach that gave the GSW trouble last year during the playoffs. Billy D is smart, but not smart enough to beat us. That's because of coaching, depth and adjustments. We were one shot away from sweeping a really good team. That's a sign of good things to come and I'm really sorry that you can't envision our quality. We have the ability to improve. That's a fantastic sign. That means we're good enough to be better than today. Potential for improvement means something and we have players that are willing to do what they have to to be better. I just won't ever get the defeatist feeling. Nothing great ever happens when defeat is the first thing on your mind. How do we get a victory tends to seed special moments in time. Don't give up before it starts, brother. We still have tons in the tank. MDmA will harness the power.

    He won a Jr. College NC,the BCS NC ! Took a team to within a game of winning the Super Bowl with a crap OL that couldn't protect crap. Your screen name is quite appropriate BTW Backdoor.

    He just cares about Stats as we can see, he doesn't care about WINS. 4 to 1. That's the only stats that matter and BEV WON

    I do not give one ounce of **** right now about Ryan Anderson's shooting woes. Are you ****ing hearing me? I could care less if Ryan Anderson shot zero for 84 for the entire series. I don't care if Ryan Anderson shoots 1 for 325 for the rest of the series. Ryan Anderson's shooting is NOT what would cause us to lose a championship.

    You just want to come on here to b**** about something. I've watched entire Rockets seasons, all 82 games, where they had a shot of winning 20-25 games. I've seen injury after injury, heartbreak after heartbreak, misery after misery for many years. Larry Bird. Ricky Pierce. John Stockton. Damian Lilliard. Mehmet Okur. Etcetera. I've suffered again and again and again and again and again as a Houston Rockets fan.

    So, I'll be damned if I'm going to let your emo-debbie-downer-whining bullshit go without saying something about it. Anytime the Houston Rockets win any playoff series is cause for a mother****ing celebration.

    So, enjoy wallowing in your crybaby crap. Or, better yet, enjoy things in life while you can.

    So did he win the Super Bowl? Are you going to say OKC didn't win a championship this year because WB has crap teammates?

    Beverley is all in with the Rockets. Ariza is down also. Even more than Harden. Both of those guys end up living in Houston in 20 years.

    Good win from a defensive standpoint. Terrible shooting all series which will have to drastically change for us to even have a small chance in the 2nd round. But we took care of business so can't complain.
