    I've been staunch supporter for mchale and a lot of people say stuff like this every game when it isn't warranted, but everything you mentioned above was true today. It was laughably obvious to the point even the **** head ESPN analysts were talking about it.

    Swept by OKC. Nothing more nothing less. Can't win against the freaking Suns the worst team of the conference, how could we win against the best team of the conference.

    I think we can get a game off them, maybe even two.

    4-0 Rockets sweep Thunder. Why not.

    Everybody relax and have fun. Remember our first round series last year? Oh right. This is better. We've been waiting to be in the playoffs since 2009, lets enjoy it.

    I think Harden will steal a game for us but I'm going with 4-1 Thunder. Still a great season though...I was definitely not expecting the Rox to get into the playoffs. Any playoff experience will be good for these young guys.

    I am seriously laughing at you. Linsanity will never happen when McFail is in town.

    Nobody can get hot when he was playing a good game and then got sub out and sat 10 minutes straight.

    Yeah keep dreaming. Playoff type game today and Linsanity or Hardensity for that matter was nowhere to be found.
