    I see that the doubters are out in full force right now on the bbs, and I know you must be full of joy after watching the Rockets drop game 6. Well losers, enjoy it while you can. The Rockets will take game 7 on Monday night at home, and we will be going to the NBA Finals. Yeah this loss was tough, especially that 2nd half, but I feel oddly confident after this game. We will win this series.

    I hope we win. I don't think we will unfortunately. Not without CP3.

    I want to believe but I don't think the NBA will allow it.

    I’m the biggest Rockets fan ever but I don’t see CP3 playing and I’ve seen Harden one too many times mail it in in crucial games. I hope they prove me wrong.

    I want to say be positive but I think you maybe right. In order to win we will have to blow them out and we just don’t have the firepower without CP3. Anything close the referees will take the win from us.

    I think they'll compete but be overcome by a stacked, healthy team.

    Without CP, that means James has to rest, which leaves us with an offensively inept team on the floor. Capela is currently giving us nothing, and players who used to be able to put the ball in the basket like Ryan or Joe have proven useless. Meanwhile, our 2nd guy off the bench is Luc Mbah A Moute who literally looks like he's afraid to be on the court.

    Some unlucky breaks we couldn't afford happened. I'm hopeful but I see too many things working against us right now.

    Definitely not without CP3. Even with CP3, he might still not be himself and Rockets still lose.

    So Silver got his game 7. The refs will call a fair game on game 7. Rockets defend their home court. We got this!

    CP3 is the difference maker that sets this team apart from the Warriors. Without him or if Paul is hobbled, I don't see it.

    I hope you are right.

    We are -50 in this series.

    If we win then this will in all likelihood be the greatest point differential by a winning team in NBA history

    I have a good feeling cp3 is playing. We are winning the nba finals this year.

    We just need to win Game 7 by 1 point! If it is a close game, everybody knows the Warriors cannot execute.

    I believe we could win if allowed to play fairly. Unfortunately, i think its more about what the NBA has scripted than how well we play. Tonight has me 100 percent sure that this game was fixed. Is the whole series scripted?

    I'm so soured on the NBA after the game tonight that I don't know if I will recover. I got turned off for a while after that Lakers vs Kings fiasco. NBA refs got busted rigging the outcome. That's not just accusations. Tonight was so damn sketchy when things werent going as planned.
