    Seriously, with GSW and OKC winning comfortable the media will act like this was a loss for the Rockets and I'm glad.

    These pea brain, single digit IQ having refs really took a FT away from Harden, let KAt take 17 steps and give the wolves an easy fastbreak layup, effectively causing a 3 point swing in the closing minute of a playoff game... I just can't wrap my mind around what that horse **** was

    Nene & Ariza need to play better. Not worried about CP3 he will be fine. Ryano will get Nene minutes when he comes back and that should help. With Luc out, Ariza needs to play better.

    To be fair Minny isn't the typical 8 seed. If Butler never goes down they would have been any where from 3-6.

    No he had already shot the first one before the break to stop Butler's bleeding. Everyone, including the refs forgot. So Towns got away with a travel and Minny got two free points.

    You watched a wake up call, for everyone who thought it was going to be an easy sweep.

    Rockets fans have gotten too spoiled this season with all the win streaks and blowouts. Everyone thinks we should win by 18 like we did in the regular season.

    Sorry, but this the playoffs. Expect us to grind out wins like these the rest of the way with the MVP leading the way.

    Also, keep trashing Paul. You'll be hugging his nuts the next game or so when he goes off for a great performance.

    Lastly, I'm happy and satisfied tonight with the win so I'll leave this board to all the whiners, crybabies, and trolls.

    See you in the game 2 thread.

    He doesn't deserve one. His wife should be giving one to James.
