    Max Kellerman will not be surprised at all if Rockets close out in Oakland.

    It just feels like Harden and EG can do it.. Harden just needs to play full out.. And not try to conserve energy..

    Harden and EG just need to have those games for us. I believe we will see the return of the Prince, too.

    I just like that they're focused on him not playing a game. No speculation that he's done for the season or series for sure.

    Harden will need to be attacking and fascilitating like he did early in the season and all of last year. He's deferred to CP the last few games and when he hasn't he has sat out on the perimeter dribbling nowhere.

    He has to attack the rim to create shots for others. That's how ISO ball is supposed to work.

    I voted for all of them because we need to step up as an entire team.

    Don’t ever underestimate the heart of a champion.

    Time to finally unleash the Road Ryno! If West can play in this series, Ryno sure can play. And he got some fresh legs.

    This is Harden's time.

    All the s**t people have talked, the choking, the flopping, the defense memes, all of it can be shut down with one big game. A big game with a safety net at that. I don't give a f**k if he's freezing cold, Harden needs to dominate the offense for us.

    Luc should be able to make up for our defensive loss with CP3, but the offense is all on the beard to make it happen.

    I sure hope Luc, ISO Joe, and Road Anderson all show up and play. They got some very fresh legs!

    If we bring our shooting touches back, it's possible. BELIEVE.

    I feel Green is going to win us the series.

    Last time Chris Paul missed a playoff game with a hamstring strain, his team won the next game without him.

    Time for his current squad to repeat the feat!:eek:

    luc will bring the defense and have fresh legs. our issue will be replacing CP3 on offense. we may not need one person to do it alone, but we somehow have to find 100 points. if everyone in the rotation chips in 3-4 points above their series average we can pull it off.
