    Butler didn't look all that great in that Nuggets game. Luc played like 26+ mins in each of our wins against the Wolves. He played great D on Butler, Wiggins, and Towns.

    True, but if that were to happen then it saved us the misery of it happening later. There is no reason we lose this series unless we do it to ourselves by not staying focused, losing composure, losing confidence, and just plain choking. All we need to do is play like we have all year. Calm, cool, skilled, and confident.

    Sorry to all of you who wanted a grudge match against the Spurs. I'm all about limiting the contact and injuries, so this is exactly the matchup I wanted.

    I'm fine with this matchup. Ideally I would've preferred the Nuggets or Pelicans, but Denver mathematically could not be the 8th seed and New Orleans wasn't gonna lose at home to the Spurs. The T'Wolves are the next best thing for the Rockets. Even without Luc, this should not go more than 5 unless we're bricking from downtown.

    Have the surgeon on stand-by. Rockets boots may need to be surgically removed from the T-Wolves b***s.

    If we are at our best, then we should win by 4-2 against the Wolves.
    Go Houston Rockets!

    KAT is the whiniest baby in the league. I'm getting annoyed just thinking about four straight games of his stomping about and gesticulating. Like player, like coach, I suppose.
