    I pray I'm dead wrong but LA in 6.

    No answer for Paul or Blake and Harden plays god awful vs Clippers. Tough task

    Crap on a pickle. I don't like this matchup. My heart screams rockets win and go to the conference finals. But my brain says we lose 4-2. Split here. We lose game one, win game 2, play a couple of tough ones in clip land, lose by a couple points in both games with officiating being questionable in 1. Smoke me in game 5 and then fall in game 6.

    Come of Rox. I DARE you to make me eat my own **** without any salt. PLEASE prove ,e wrong against three putz's

    I hope and wish we can pull this off, but watching the Clippers just now against SA, this is going to be a VERY hard series to win.

    Unfortunately, I see the Clippers winning in 6 or less. Horrible, I know

    Shame we won't play the Spurs big 3 in a playoff series. We just don't match up with the Clips well. CP3 will eat Terry's lunch. Much as I love my Rockets, Clippers will win in 6. Rockets aren't a great defensive team and they have excellent shooters especially Crawford who makes every damn lucky ass shot he throws up.

    I am only worried about Crawford if we can contain him which is basically their whole bench we can win the series

    Can't stand Griffin.
    Can't stand Paul.
    Can't stand Barnes.
    Redick is a douche.

    I feel like I'm one of the only rockets fans who actually wanted the Rockets to face the Clippers instead of the Spurs. Everyone keeps saying Rockets are ****ed, but the clippers have no bench and we went 2-2 with them this season. Versus 1-3 on the spurs.

    If the Rockets are on point, they can beat the Clippers. Even without Paul's hamstring issue.
