    Kings lose by a last second shot. We're only 1.5 games ahead of Blazers for the 4th seed. :(

    Come on guys, we're a better team than this.

    Our D-League call ups play exactly like what they learned in the Vipers.... Run, jack up threes, and play almost zero defense besides standing and waving the arms.

    Our schedule is cake...if we can't stay ahead of the Blazers we deserve the 5th seed.

    Any Lin highlights? I missed most of the first half.

    Portland plays Golden State pretty soon so that game will most likely determine who 5th seed is but we gotta take care of business Friday and Saturday so we can chill.

    We can beat Portland on the road any ways, I am in no way scared of them. They literally just jack up jumpers all game long.

    Just watch the second quarter. He was 6-6 from the field in that period, 0-5 the rest of the game.

    Seems like Portland really started believing their own hype.

    actually, we own the tie breaker, so Portland would have to win one more game so they are 3 games behind in the loss column.

    Yes, but the Blazers hit their jumpers at a higher rate in their own arena. Plus the refs will give them more calls and FT's because they don't want to let down the home crowd. Home court advantage is VERY IMPORTANT in the playoffs , especially to a young inexperienced team like the Rockets.

    Man, I just watched the game. Does Casspi suck or what? Damn… his form is so ugly and his moves are too. And I love DMo but what's wrong with him these days? He misses easy layups, doesn't do his usual post moves anymore, he just does that weird hook, and plays so soft and keeps falling down again.
