    35-32 with an All time Playoff record with James Harden. The rockets are not a dominate team in the playoffs. What makes this year any different, where they play the Western Confrence Champions without home court advantage.

    Not to spray any negativety but serious... Look at the record. What are we really?

    Just be realistic dude, we're not favourites in this series but we have a chance.

    As for the all time record with James here, it doesn't mean anything, we had multiple years where the team was a 50% playoffs team, one year we shouldn't be even in the playoff...last year we finally had a real contender and we were what? 11-6 (11-4 with Chris).

    You say you are 20 years old and 6'tall. You started out as 18"tall and now you say you are 6'. Stop all of that lying bullshit, we know you are 20 and only 4' tall.

    35-32 is already a pretty good playoffs record since Harden has not won a championship so far. You could be 12/16 and won NBA championship, just saying.

    that's a pretty arbitrary stat.

    why not look up James' career playoff record? his thunder days are equally as irrelevant to his early rocket days before MDA and Paul came into the picture.

    the mchale/dwight failure isn't 100% on James.

    Gotta look at every teams playoff record prior to that superstars team winning their first championship. None of them are really impressive.

    Hakeem was 23-27 in the playoffs before '92-93 when they lost to the Sonics in 7 (6-6 that season).

    OKC was just ...

    26-22 with Durant, after they traded Harden.

    Not what I'd call dominate.

    All I can think about is Adrian in "Rocky IV" giving Rocky the "YOU CAN'T WIN!" speech. That's what my mind is saying to the Rockets. If Harden is Rocky in this equation, then we're all in big trouble. :D:(

    James has played On one team good enough to win a title and he got within one game of knocking off the most stacked team of his era. This team has a lot to prove, but lets ride with our guys man! Rockets and Stros are ACTUAL TITLE CONTENDERS! ENJOY MYMAN! THESE ARE GOOD TIMES!
