    If the Rockets can somehow pull out game 5, anything can happen.


    Game six shifts you back home. And then in game 7, all the pressure is on them, baby.

    Just win baby.


    Let's go Clutch City.

    Just handle it one game at a time and we can do this.

    If JSmith can actually play consistently....we have a chance.

    JSmith is probably the 2nd biggest game changer in this team after Harden.

    He is a player that can do a bit of everything (defense, 3's, post, pass)....but on the flip side that also includes dumb plays and bad ft's.

    No hope. We have no chance. Stop it with this nonsense.

    How will we win game 5? That's crazy talk. Crazy crazy talk. There's no chance in the world we can win. Pigs fly first. The moon will crumble. Howard will kiss Harden before it happens.

    Stop it.

    This isn't going to happen.
    We are way too inconsistent to beat this disciplined Warriors team.

    But we will see. It'd be epic if we did the comeback twice.

    We are going to be the first team to win a 7 game series after starting 0-3.

    We are winning the 'ship this year.

    Josh Smith is like salvation and DAMNATION all in the same player.

    I don't know what to make of that. Its easy to want him back when he's playing well, and then he makes 2 Lin-esque turnovers and I want to send him packing.

    No, I'm not a LOH... sorry to bring him up... the guy just never lived up to any of his potential here.

    I'm inclined to agree, but I'll never say 100% over til its over. Maybe that sounds lame, but I think if I'd given up I wouldnt have even watched tonights game.

    Its possible, but man... they hit 20 3s in this game... wtf right? I hope we cna win another 1, ugh especially to make up for such close shots in Games 1 and 2.

    I don't see it happening. But at least the Rockets showed some pride in avoiding the sweep.

    Hey, Kevin, do you think that the Rockets can actually come back from being down 0-3?

    What about you, Zaza? Where do you think this series is going?

    There's just something about this team when they're in elimination mode

    Every game is an elimination game. We are 4-0 in those games so far for this season.

    One game at a time. No need to think beyond. Just play for themselves and play for pride.

    Carry over the momentum, but we need to do a better job at defense, and we need to go inside more decisively and stronger. We can't rely on shooting lights out for 3s.
