    Can't wait. The girlfriend got us some pretty nice seats for my birthday. Now if we would just beat the Clips it would make my bday complete.

    I can't quite place why, but something is making me feel a little better about this than most Clippers games. Rockets win.

    If there was ever an important time to beat the Clippers, this is it. It would push them further down in the standings and least give the Rockets a chance to even the season series in their 4th and final meeting in March.

    The Rockets HAVE to beat them sometime right?

    It's not like the Clippers can win 20 straight games against the Rockets.

    Rockets are due for a win. Rockets win this one

    How in the hell are we going to stop Deandre Jordan? We don't have nearly anyone tall, long, or athletic enough to keep him off the boards. F that team.

    The team needs to come out focused and ready to play or it will be another blowout by the Clippers. I hope McHale looked at the way the Grizz came out and played tough D on a B2B to get the win against the Clippers.

    You rebound as a team. Don't leak out early and assume that another player's secured the board. Tip it to someone else if you can't grab it yourself. And if Jordan does get it, make damn sure he doesn't dunk it or lay it in. Foul him and make him shoot free throws.

    Let's not forget they're missing Griffin. And they have not been a great road team this season. Even without Dwight, if the Rockets can't win this one, they'll never beat the damn Clippers.

    I have this one down as a scheduled loss.

    I'm sure it won't stop our **** fans from whining about it all night though.

    I am damn tired of the Rockets losing to the Clips. Another Clips game without Blake Griffin. C'mon Rockets, get this one!

    We should be p-ssed if the Rockets lose two in a row to the Clips without Griffin. We can't be 0-7 against 2 teams(Warriors and Clippers) who we may have to face in the playoffs.
