    Morey has literally crafted a team so perfectly aligned to beat the Warriors and Warriors only. Rockets win in high fashion.

    Rockets wanna go down 3-0. 3 losses in a row Another prime time loss hurts harden's mvp chances for sure.

    You know the media gonna blast harden and elevate Paul George in mvp discussions if rockets lose three in a row.

    Paul George got harden type numbers in a win against jazz, playoff team in overtime wearing cheap sneakers.

    I don't like the Rockets' chances(assuming Harden plays), but a win would be pretty huge. To be 3-0 against the Warriors and 2-1 against the Nuggets has to be reassuring heading down the stretch. Sure, they're 1-2 against both the Thunder and Blazers, but I don't doubt the Rockets' ability to beat either of those teams in the postseason if they're healthy.

    Some people may read this and think your out of your mind. I don't. I have faith in the our players ability and our overall team that they could do what it takes to beat the Warriors in a 7 game series. But... within that, "Could Do" is where a lot of work has to be done and questions be answered. I do not feel good with where the mindset of our ownership and management is right now. I believe it has affected the mindset of the players which has affected the team. All that equals to what we have been seeing on the court. A team that's talented enough but is missing the balls it has to have to close games in the championship state of mind it's lacking. Why is that mind state lacking? It's starts from up top where it's all about saving the money over winning the ring.

    Sorry but this will be big lost, 3 loses in roll, team sent reeling.

    Why? The man has neck and shoulder injuries. Need to sit out. If out it is a lost.

    If Harden plays with the injury then unlikely to be anything special enough to help beat them.

    And in a way, this season is lost no matter what. Did team get anyone of high value to join? No

    Did team sent out 1st round pick and lousy players to get below tax? Yes.

    These are not the trademarks of team going all in.

    If healthy, they can do some damage, but they can't stay healthy and you already saw what the League wants. It is not Harden in the WCF or Finals. Book that

    Rockets playing well or not is irrelevant to the accuracy of officiating.

    I don't give a **** .

    Either we will be good enough to beat the team we play in the first round , or not .

    If we get the 3 seed and then lose in the second round to den/OKC then that's just as disappointing as losing to den/OKC in the first round .

    In fact I'd prefer losing in the first round because then tilman would lose out on some extra revenue and **** him .
