    We going to the WCF and are destined to win it all. Took my nephew to his jiu jitsu class this week and he got to meet one of the GOAT Rockets playoff legends...



    My how far we've come from benching Harden in an elimination playoff game. Point spreads not a factor so far in the playoffs, Rockets money line baby.

    Tucker senses the pulse of the team. The level of leadership that he brings is underestimated by me when he has a poor shooting game, but I always admire and greatly appreciate his toughness and discipline on defense. Go P.J.! You are our hero.

    I hope you're right. I'm cautiously optimistic about this game. Go Houston Rockets!

    Predicting Utah comes out with passion and energy, because their backs are firmly against the wall. I think at some point, we'll be down by double digits early purely because of mindset.

    Tonight we are lucky to have Ken Mauer, Josh Tiven and Kevin Scott.

    I could see us being down by 12-15 points and making a massive comeback. Recently though, in those playoff atmospheres, we've come out to early leads, such as the game at OKC. Utah will def be playing with increased energy and emotion, so it'll be a tough game for sure. I'm not sure what to expect, but I do think we pull out a W.

    Ready to broom the pieces of the Jazz trash. Donovan says he needs to be aggressive maybe the Rockets are the aggressor. Jazz are going up in smoke today. WIN!

    Let Mitchell get his but don’t let Ingles go off. The Jazz don’t have another reliable shooter outside of him.

    Have the refs been announced yet?

    One thing I love about clutchfans is the true fan perspective comments you get. You have homerism but not a overwhelming dose of it. More true perspective type predictions based on where we truly are as a team. A lot of outside fans are surprised by how we are dominating Utah but we are not. We are just that good.

    Mitchell taking the Westbrook approach would be a mistake.

    I fully expect the jazz to bring their best, it’s incredibly hard to go up 3-0 on a team especially a good defensive one like the jazz
