    If the sequence of events went just like that, I'd take it.

    But Rockets won't be playing past Wednesday anyway.

    Dwight got to be on best behavior. Expect to GSW to pull out all the stops on trying to bait Dwight. Hopefully it backfires and Bogut gets a tech or flagrant.

    God I miss the late 80s and early 90s. Fashion was so much more comfortable.

    Not confident, but the Rockets have a habit of proving people wrong.

    it's good to know though that they will fight and claw until the very end.

    Technically speaking, I think if Howard picked up 1 Tech and a Flagrant 1 in Game 5, he would be suspended for 6 and 7 but would play out Game 5.

    I'm a die-hard Rockets fan, but I'm coming to terms with the fact of a more than likely elimination. Just so I don't feel the pain. Proud of this team though. I believe we have talent and on a good day can beat GSW anytime, but Game 5 seems like a steep hill to climb @Oracle. GSW are the better team so far.

    The question is: Do the Rockets have anything left in the tank? They have expended an enormous amount of energy fighting an uphill battle. My guess, we have seen their best and they may not have much left. I suspect Wednesday is their last game this season. It likely won't be close. I would love to be shockingly surprised.

    One thing that breeds optimism is the Rockets are really learning the little tricks the warriors are using to get the splash brothers open shots. Before they were blindly rotating, now, they will stop rotating off Curry because he inevitably gets an open shot. They also pick him up on the perimeter, even during rebounds, because of the 172384 offensive rebounds that have led to wide open threes.

    This. I noticed that TJones did not fall for Curry's fake and recover to block Curry's 3 pointer last game.

    *******...we need everyone to show up.

    It pains me knowing we could theoretically be tied 2-2 or up 3-1.

    My heart already aches knowing the outcome may not play out in our favor.

    Imagine if they could scout these teams and figure them out BEFORE they're facing elimination.
