    Love the confidence but I don't think we should be poking the beast.

    Clint "knock, knock" Capela

    My man! Love the confidence.

    We have outplayed the warriors in what, 9 of the 12 quarters we have played them this season? Last night we definitely looked like the better team throughout the vast majority of the game.

    Extremely bold claim, but I see where our boy is coming from.

    Clint said a couple weeks ago the Rockets would beat the warriors and they did. Maybe he's on to something.

    Good to trash talk now because we won't see them again until the WCF. Just don't go losing to the Clippers again this season.

    Easy to say that when he knows that they completed their season series today.

    The Rockets org does not know when to shut up. The slightest bit of success and you have Morey or Clint talking big. How about save the tough talk until after they have done something meaningful in the Playoffs?

    Clint has been saying this since 2017 though.

    this is the mentality they need to have.

    the warriors beat most teams before the tip off because of how intimidating they are.

    you cant truly be mentality prepared to bet the warriors with a "aww shucks, i just hope we're competitive against them"

    It's the mentality they need to have, but not the one they need to share with the public...

    I like it from a player like Clint! He should darn well believe it.

    Clint needs to figure out how to guard Javal McGee. Crazy as that sounds, he’ changes the game for them when he plays.
