    Well forget about my good feelings from the first Page. Now that Parsons is out I don't think we have much of a chance.

    Everything says huge blowout tonight. No Parsons, back to back, all the traveling. Will the Rockets somehow surprise everyone? If the Rockets win, I think it would be the biggest upset of the season in the NBA.

    Is this the game Lin has been waiting for to unleash Linsanity?

    I don't really understand starting Cook at all.

    He's smaller and not a better scorer than Morris. Durant is going to drop 15 in the first quarter.

    Not the biggest upset of the season in the NBA, but probably the biggest upset of the season for the Rockets.

    Let's keep in mind that we're a slightly above average team playing a title contender. Without Parsons and on the back to back probably makes us the equivalent of a below average team.

    But I'll be a bottom 5 team beats a title contender at some time this season.

    5 on 5: Rockets VS. Thunder

    Original Article

    I found it interesting.

    The questions are pretty good.

    I like how two of the five analyst find Houston as a Playoff-contender.

    Hopefully we'll make it, hopefully.

    The last question was nice.

    I hope we could go against them three years from now.

    Make it happen Morey!

    Then you should re-watch:

    5:34 left in 3rd Smith sub for Asik
    3:44 left in 3rd Morris sub for Patterson
    2:01 left in 3rd Dequan Cook sub for Parsons
    2:01 left in 3rd Douglas sub for Lin

    At that point Rockets had a 27 point lead from 2:01 to 0:13 left in the 3rd quarter the lead went from 27 to 17.... that's 10 points. With 0 seconds left in the 3rd Cook hits a 3 to put the Rockets back up by 20.

    The Rockets then open the 4th with a 20 point lead Asik, Morris, Cook, Harden and Douglas start. The Rockets lead goes from 20 to 16.

    In the 3 minutes after Parsons and Lin went out the Rockets commited 2 turnovers and a shooting foul, the lead went from 27 to 16 and in that time the Rockets only FG was the last second 3pt shot by cook at the end of the 3rd quarter. Anyone with eyes could see that Toronto had every single bit of momentum at that point with 10:59. Anyone that has been watching NBA games for longer than about 5 minutes have seen bigger leads dissapear in less time.

    Now don't you feel like an dumb ass. Kelvin Sampson will hear you appology now.
