    I'm a sucker for pregame rituals and jinx and whatnot. I posted this after the game 3 loss and since we won I'm going to post it again for good luck. LETS GO ROCKETS! so excited I almost want to blow my lab exam to watch the first quarter.

    They said Harden wasn't a max salary type of player

    he came out and suprised the world.

    They said Asik wasn't worth his contract

    He became our daily double-double

    They said Lin can't ball

    he changed the atmosphere of a dying franchise and gave it life.

    they said we'll rebuild this year and try for the playoff the next.

    we made it as high as the 6th seed.

    They said OKC will blow us out and we don't stand a chance

    We played the western champs down to the last seconds

    and now they say no team in history have ever made it out with a 0-3 record

    Don't we got a lineup full of guys that likes to break historical records?

    Right now they're scared, the mighty thunder aren't celebrating, they're trying to come up with a contingency plan, because at any given moment, the Rockets can come blazing out of the gate and steal the show.

    although we're lacking in experience, we make it up with heart. And you do not ever, underestimate the heart of a champion.

    Need another big game from Parsons and Asik! Their defense is incredible. Will Parsons arise as our leader?

    Will Harden snap out of his slump? Will Lin be healthy and ready to play? Will our 3 point barrage stay sizzling?

    Gah, so much must go right for us to win!

    Harden is due for a good game. If he plays up to his standards the Rox could very well win this.

    Rush Hour 4: Redemption. Harden and Lin will redeem themselves and lead the Rockets to victory.

    Hopefully Harden can get himself together and show up to play. If he plays well we have a good chance of winning this one.

    I'm so excited for our guys to play in okc. I like being away and being the underdog. Just think if we pull this game out and get to come back home for a game 6. :eek:

    Let's go Rockets!

    It's bound to happen and the Rockets are a quarter of the way there.
