    Great game to be at. Doubt I'll see a better game at TC. I've pretty much lost my voice.

    Great choice OP

    Thanks guys! Best game I've ever attended. My wife especially loved Harden giving LBJ a swift kick in the nuts. We'll definitely be making more trips to Houston. The crowd and energy was fantastic. Great win!

    Will post pics and/or videos when I get back home tomorrow.

    I'm a superstitious person when it comes to games. You better get your ass to every Rockets game the rest of this season!

    Was at the game too. Funny part was on the groin kick they kept replaying it on the big screen, especially the 2-3 frames of the actual kick, in rapid succession. ANd then they just held the shot of the foot in the groin and just left it up there for 5 seconds. Hilarious.

    Thanks for all the kind words. Best regular season game I've ever attended. Sorry it took me a couple of days. I was very impressed with the atmosphere of the Toyota Center. It was rocking. I usually go to Atlanta and New Orleans, but I've never seen them come close to what I experienced this weekend. Loved when Bev told the entire arena that "We have the best F***ing fans in the world." My wife isn't the biggest basketball fan, but she hasn't stopped talking about the game. Even got her to watch last night's game, although now she won't stop yelling at the TV every time J Smoove takes a jumper. So glad we decided to make the trip. We'll definitely be coming back.

    video I took of the first of many MVP chants for Harden:

    Got too caught up in the game and didn't take enough pictures, but here are a few:

    The whole team will be charged up for this game. i think it will be a break out breakthrough game where EVERYBODY takes it up another level. Harden is gonna see adter last nights game he can trust his mates even more during the first three quarters till Harden quarter (4th)
