    Batum's length is very bothersome. When they did the 1-2 PnR, Lin had to lob that ball so high just to give it to Harden to exploit the mismatch against Lillard. Run more PnRs. They cannot guard the PnR.

    I agree.... Houston wins tomorrow and Portland complains about refs and Harden flopping....... Harden Goes for 30 + with a whole bunch of free throws included. Daniels hits 4 threes and Lin turns the ball over while Portland is making a run.... Howards beasts and The Rockets come back to H-Town 2-2... Lets try again :D....

    It's happened 9 time, most recently in 2006 when Phoenix came back to beat the Lakers. One of those 9 teams happened to be the 95 Rockets who came back from a 3-1 deficit to beat Charles Barkley's Suns. And well you know the rest :)

    You already predict that Lin will turn the ball over and failed because you are a Lin hater. You basically want everyone to succeed but Lin. You are not a Rocket fan. Get the truck out of here!

    More than the win in game 3 itself, the team have gained something more significant, and that's self confidence and belief. They were such in a terrible funk in games 1 and 2 that the players seemed to have forgotten that they can beat these Blazers as they have done 3 out of 4 times in the regular season.

    I expect to see a much more settled, confident, and dominant Rockets squad in game 4.

    The series will head back to H-Town tied at 2 a piece.

    Once again, Jlin will spearhead the rockets win, hopefully harden shoots better than 5%, chandler doesn't completely suck, and tjones gets stapled to the bench......

    LOL jk, I expect another good all around team effort in a tight win

    Can't have Harden settling for an isolation in the clutch. PnR with Dwight works well>

    I just love that we have the best d-league 3pt shooter in our back pocket. Gameplan against him won't too much of an impact because he plays backup minutes for Parson so he gets all the benefits. And since hes our best shooter, he will always be the first option on the drive and kick.

    yep, it was a scary lob each time. Mathews is a great defender too on Lin and Harden, hard for them to shake them 1on1. Screens ftw.
