ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Thunder 4/21/2013 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 1)

I know what you mean, but I also think you gotta reward the guys that got us here in the first place.

You dance with them that brung you.

 

BOLD PREDICTION: If, and thats a big IF, the Rockets win Game 1, Rockets win series in 6 games!!!

 

Thanks, let's do this.

 

If they run, they have a chance to win a game or two at home. If not, they are completely ****ed. The half court offense is ****ing terrible, especially when harden sizes his man up for 15+ seconds. Why they don't run anything for him to get him open is ****ing confusing. He's not going to do well against sefalosha going ISO. The thunder are long as well, something that obviously gives the rockets fits when they attack the basket.

 

Rockets win game 1... 106-99.

 

The pressure is on OKC to not let the Rockets get the split. Rockets will take care of home court.

 

Remember game one in LA last time Rockets weren't suppose to win? I think we steal game one, after that anything can happen.

 

Trap game.

 

I'll take it! Shock the world, Rockets, and enjoy the feeling while it lasts. Actually, I think that in game one we have as good a shot of winning as in any other game in this series. Harden, Lin, Parsons, and Asik all have great games. The GARM temporarily turns into an Eden of Sweetness and Light. The world stops turning, even if just for a day, and the people on the dark half of the planet can't figure out what happened to the sun. I dance around the house for a couple of hours and freak out the family. Yeah, that's a groovy thought. Take it to them, Rockets!

 

You're smoking something real good. That team won 53 games and made it to the 2nd round.

This team won 45 games.


People are so delusional.

 

Yeah, for OKC

 

If we do that then no team can stop us till the finals..........thats a big IF

 

He believes in his team and you don't. Remember the Warrior who triumphed over the Mavericks when everyone rooted them out?

 

Expected. That was no surprise to anyone. The Warriors were owning the Mavericks in the regular season.

 

Westbrook is the key to the series. The guy is a great scorer but he can also easily play out of control, become emotional and shoot the team out of the game. If JLin and Beverly can somehow frustrate Westbrook defensively we may have a slim chance of winning the series. Go Rockets!

 

Easy prediction: If we beat the Thunder in game 1 by 15 points, we win the finals.

 

Sorry, wrong board.

 

Finally, for once, we are the trap

Let's re-live this, boys!

 

Rockets at their best can beat OKC. We've seen that. I believe in that.

That last game against them was a thing of beauty.

The Rockets haven't played like that recently, but they have it in them. So we will see. One thing for sure emotions will be high.
