    We can't have a 4:30 second draught - and win.

    The league let Durant sign with the warriors, Rockets could of beat the 15-16 warriors not this super team. Sorry. I hope the west enjoys this for next 5 years. If you dont understand this is all about Durant vs Lebron every year so enjoy.

    I predicted Warriors in 6 well before today, I think I will stick with it. I also said many times that we had nobody to match up vs Durant which is obvious.

    even the spurs and pelicans won a game against them.

    i think we can win at least 2. i would bet we win the next one... probably lose the first one on the road and win the next one. 2-2 going into game 5 is just fine by me.

    I think it goes to 5. Barely.

    Shouldn't even feel bad we grew a great foundation with Paul's 1st year. Let's get Bron to match the playing field

    idiotic thread after a loss, Durant won't be that hot all the time (hopefully), and we could do better to passing the ball while moving.

    Well thanks for the info. I guess I don't need to watch the rest of the games.

    Houston has no chance vs Golden State.

    Sorry to say it.

    I didn't want to make a prediction until I saw game 1 and I'm not optimistic the Rockets can get even 2 wins. Durant started missing shots towards the end but the Rockets couldn't take advantage because the role players continue to **** the bed and be non factors.

    Has been apparent all year. We’ve been saying they are going to have to step up and play fantastic for 4 games. By my math they still have up to 6 chances to make that happen. I like how people here were saying us in 7 and are now saying Dubs in 4 after 1 loss.

    Nah.

    But if a 65 win team gets swept in the finals... the NBA deserves to lose a **** ton of money and get terrible ratings for letting Durant join a 73 win team.

    I don't know about a sweep but I don't know how we can beat the Warriors. It's easy to be a delusional fan of your team but sometimes you just gotta be real. God I hate this superteam BS.

    Harden cancels out Durant, CP3 cancels out Curry. Then if we don't let loose Klay Thompson, we have a chance.

    I don’t know if it’ll be a sweep but the Warriors are going to win this series.

    Hate to say it Rockets fans, but....


    Shhhhh....it’ll all be over soon.

    Yep, I think we're in....year 5 or 6 of this trash? Its getting pretty old at this point. If we had Kevin Durant it'd be a different story.
