    It is time to end Durant's misery on the Warriors.

    Make this the last game he has played for them in their arena.

    I've posted this elsewhere, but ..what the heck....

    We should be up 3-1, defending our NBA title.

    The only thing that can save the Worriers now is the League/refs.

    We haven't even played our best yet...while surviving the blitz of Durant/Thompson in game 3...their best shot. we've imposed our will on them in a big way.

    The Rockets are going to stick a fork in these guys tomorrow night.

    And, vanquish these gutless SOB's in 6, back home...

    Highly likely that whoever wins this game, wins the series...

    Win this one and they have to win two in a row. It is a best two out of three series now. I think we have them "thinking." They are coming out all charged up, and that is when basketball teams make mistakes. Rockets just need to stay calm and up the defensive intensity. Rockets can beat them at Oracle.

    Just keep the same mentality. Outwork them in every phase of the game. Have to go out and be the aggressors. Take the title away from these guys.

    I going to keep it a buck 50.... Rockets go up 3-2 in a boring win and then really run it back with Paul to close out on Friday.

    Vegas is sorely mistaken. Vegas should remember the money it lost over Tiger’s win.

    Rockets can make this the last game ever played at the Oracle in Oakland.

    I am optimistic our boys can handle the worriors. I am also just as confident that the ref's are going to screw us out of at least 1 more potential win. You already see Kerr in the media calling us 'linebackers', the team calling plays on Paul dirty. You can bet they are getting in the ear of the league pointing out the 'illegal' physicality. Watch the refs ramp up their soft foul calls on us.

    After getting burnt last year, taking them out would be the sweetest of revenges. Get it done boys!!!
