    I don't think we have much of a chance given the way we played in our last two games in LA, but damn I hope they pull it off. Expecting to lose, hoping for the best. We'll see.

    Asked this before, but will we overcome the ESPN Game 6 curse?

    If the Rockets do win tomorrow, and it does indeed come back to Houston for Game 7, there is no way we will lose the series.

    I am cautiously optimistic about tomorrow, hoping for the best.

    I'm curious if anyone has the historical data?

    When teams are down 3-1, how often is Game 6 won?
    Especially if its the higher seed / home team that's down?

    I expect a loss... not to be a debbie downer.
    Rooting, hoping, won't be surprised by a win.
    Just a realist.

    Ahard fought battle, we'll be up at the beginning but they will make their run during the 2nd and 3rd quarter. We will try to come back, but their bench / shooters will bounce back while ours struggle is what my gut feeling is telling me and just too much Griffin and shooting to overcome.

    It will be hard as hell to win this game. If Clips make first surge early in game it is over. If we strike in the first we can win. If Rockets win this game they will win the series. Leggo Red Nation.

    Whoever wins the 3rd quarter wins the game

    Blowout loss. Clips weren't even trying last night to be honest. They will run us out of the gym in LA.

    Josh Smith adds so much defence to the starting line up, he adds much more all round skill than Jones on both ends. It was a great move to put him in the starting line up

    Yall getting too crazy. I'm here to temper the optimism. Pressure is still on us. But let's hope we play with the same desperation as game 5. These Rockets are so bipolar you never know...

    Um, as a Franchise. This team wears a Rocket uniform but are not 1 of Hakeem's teams. No experience coming back from 3-1.
