    Come on man, good or bad, it's just a game. You watch because you are a Rockets fan. You act like me when forced to play solo horror games like Dead Space 2 or Metro ...

    I really have faith in this team, and that we will win this game and Sunday's... I think Harden and Howard will show up. I also think the TO's will decrease and the 3pt shot will start to fall. Here's to good vibes and improvement on our recent play. Cheers.

    Expecting a loss.

    The Rockets have to win one in Los Angeles. Game three would be the best shot.

    Three Factors
    <14 TOs
    >11 Off. Reb (most important battle)
    >10 3s

    Rockets have won every playoff game when they achieve 2/3 of above. In the 2 losses they only got 1/3.

    Of games 3 and 4, I predict one will be a 10 pt convincing victory for the Clips. The other will be tight and could go either way.. that one is the game the Rockets need to get.

    No more turnovers.

    No more fancy, behind the back passes or threading the needle. Just CLEAN, crisp, quick passes.

    Play downhill.

    Box out Jordan.

    Foul Jordan hard if he touch the ball, no crowd pumping dunks or oops.

    Double Griffin in the post, make him pass.

    Run the shooters off the 3 pt line.

    Let CP3 get his.




    And make some DAMM free throws and we got dis! :cool:

    w CP3 out, Griffin has been a monster and Jordan has been his usual self.

    on the flip side, both Harden and Howard have been performing at less than average

    a good strategy for the Rox, from the start, make CP3 show that he is healthy to play

    they haven't at home w/o having to deal w Chris Paul , what makes u think that they'll play better in enemy territory, and the return of CP3

    Rockets won game two vs Mavs with Mauer

    Jones,Smith, Ariza and Brewer. If they can play to 80 percent of their potential, we will win this series.

    Deandre pushed Dwight in the back as well on the same play. The refs saw both pushes and guessed they cancled each other out and called neither.

    Rockets are 4-12 vs Clippers since 2012. Hopefully 5-12 today.

    What's the status for CP3?

    Let's get the W tonight! Build on our game 2 win, and take the bandwagon Lakers crowd out of the game early! Get their bigs in foul trouble early, and play with 110% effort all 4 quarters!
