    I'm not surprised we won this if I'm being honest. It's something about playing those bigger teams we seem to put in the effort. I worry more when we play the weaker teams.

    I’m excited to watch inside the nba tonight. I don’t ever watch it after a loss.

    To quote a certain Justin Wong comeback: "it ain't over till it's over".

    These past two games have shown us two things.

    1. How damn bad this team can be.
    2. How damn good this team can be.

    The score was 86-81 Clippers with 2 minutes left in the 3rd. From that point on:

    • Rockets went on a 22-7 run

    • Clippers went on an 18-2 run

    • Rockets went on a 17-4 run to end it

    Harden needed Westbrook like Jordan needed Pippen.

    Gutsy comeback from the Rockets. Statement W. Russ with the 40 tonight.

    Got disappointed when we were down by 17 but Westbrook kept attacking and harden finally caught fire. Great defensive intensity in the 2nd half.

    Way to quote yourself. With a prediction like that it's validated. Great call!

    I’m as shocked as anybody but MDA actually did out coach Rivers! Hopefully this isn’t just a one off but the beginning of a positive trend for MDA.

    Nope I stayed part of it a reverse jinx for me I do it out of reflex, but I truly thought we were gonna get smoked the way we played in the first half but that second hafl D was amazing and LAC cooled down plsu we kept of PG13s hands as much as possible

    Can't wait to heat what BS Shaq and Charles have to say

    PJ with clutch defense and rebounding at the end of the game. Every team needs a guy like him.

    Might have been a peak of the WCF. The amount of Drama in every Clippers vs Rockets game is exponential
