    I don't care what the outcome of this game or this series ends up being. Harden showed up big tonight. He was great on the big stage face to face with Curry. The entire team came out strong and have competed the entire game. That steal and shot from Ariza!

    Anyone who's not a huge homer accepts that Golden State is a better team going into this series. The numbers show that the Warriors are a historically great team this season. With all that, the Rockets were in this game all the way, even without Dwight for most of the game. Without Dwight, we are now 3 starters down.

    Let's give Golden State some credit for being a good team, and appreciate what our guys have done and are doing out there on the court.

    My head is high. This is great basketball.

    I have no complaints. If it wasn't for terrible reffing every time Warriors got down I really think we win that.

    Rockets made some stupid plays for sure, but they played with heart. Keep playing like that we got a shot.

    This team has given us all that we can ask for.

    Just hope Dwight is ok.

    Their weaknesses got them, sloppy turnovers, and missed FTs, and they lost their composure, they can fix the turnovers and composure so maybe they have a shot at this, but GS is strong.

    Very proud of them. Someone needs to make a compilation of all the phantom calls they got and all the contact they got away with.

    It's pretty clear to me that if Howard wasn't hurt the rockets would have won. Hope it's just a bruise and nothing more.

    We're already 2 rounds ahead of what my hopes were for this team when the year started. Honestly, anything else at this point is gravy...though the way wqe beat the Clips, I don't think it's too far fetched to think we can goto the finals with this group.

    that was just a well played game we gave it all and lost with pride

    no low energy bullshet

    really need a center out there though, Josh and Jones as 4,5 is just brutal

    this is when Motiejunas would've been really good

    I'm proud too. They fought hard.

    I thought everyone knew Green was scum, but apparently not. The dude would get attacked in the 90's

    If Dwight can play the second half we win this. Much respect.

    The defense is there.

    Smith and Jones really need to tighten up the paint.

    Moving screens, away from the ball call, grabbing and holding smith on the loose ball. It's all cool.


    Hopefully, Terry can hit some shots for the next few games.
