    Just thought I'd look around the usual websites for some analysis on what the rockets could do to slow down Durant and get a W.

    Is the series over? All I could find was article after article saying why Houston is despicable, James Harden is cheating basketball, and anyone who roots for the Rockets is a degenerate.

    Where is the actual analysis? And what has prompted this vitriolic response from all corners of the internet? Seems the Rockets are being taught a lesson for daring to call out the NBA establishment for what it is - a rigged money making machine over all else.

    No, he is faking it you see, Harden has embellished contact before so doesn't deserve any sympathy for authentically being hurt.

    Now if he wore blue and gold and turned an ankle on the other hand, that would be very concerning

    Can the Rockets just hire Max to sit on the bench and say these things to our players during the game?

    I'm not a fan of what Durant did obviously, as I think it was pretty weak to join a 73 win team that beat you. However, I will give him credit for standing up for James when asked if he was cheating the game. Durant said what most of us Rockets fans have been saying for years. He's clever. He's incredibly smart, and I don't think he gets enough credit for that.

    As for the articles, it's been pretty obvious, especially after game 1. They made it as if we've been complaining about officiating all year long. When in reality the two times it was even mentioned openly in the press was the Scott foster game where Harden was just upset because he couldn't talk to the guy. Then, game 1 when the league OPENLY came out and admitted to missing calls, which is unacceptable in such a big series. If you miss one or two calls that's fine, they're human, but they missed all 4 that Klay should have been called for.

    We certainly have become the villains in this series, which is incredible when you are playing the Warriors.

    Just execute, rebound and keep the turnovers down. Should be a simple W.

    Rockets have been beating themselves.

    Absolutely ! It makes all the difference in the world ! Refs made sure we have to play out of an 0-2 hole.
