    Harden is putting up some crazyyyyyyyy numbers.

    He needs to keep having these 30 point 10 assist games.

    If the role players stepped up last night like they did in the Clippers series, we will take the series.

    Harden makes this team REALLY GOOD!

    Harden and Co make this team Championship contenders.

    Hoping Smith and Brewer find the magic!

    I could see the Rockets winning handily both games and going in to GSW and just blowing them out.

    We need to find a way to get the role players going.

    I think the Rockets need to start trapping curry like they were last night.

    He couldn't handle it.

    I think it will be a close game. Hopefully the bench will play better at home than it has on the road. The last two games the role players needed to play better.

    Having Beverley for the trapping defense would be awesome. Sigh...

    It will be a win with double digits.

    If not, you can point to BS 5 on 8 yet again.

    Straight up 5 on 5 we are the better team.

    We need our role players to play well. That's all.

    James can't put up 38/10/9 every game.

    Dwight is playing his heart out.

    Trevor is the glue.

    Jet is the soul.

    Josh is the "chance" card that got us past game 6.

    The Rockets have the talent. 2 games in Htown.

    And, use a damn time out during a 25-5 run or when you NEED one. :rolleyes:

    we haven't loss 3 games in a row so lets not start now. take it one game at a time and I think our guys will be playing confident tomorrow knowing we almost had it and not outmatched like everyone thought we would be.

    We don't know how to play if our backs not against the wall yet or if we are not going to fall off the cliff yet.

    Lets kill the Dubs, I mean destroy them

    Golden State scored only 63 points over the last 3 quarters. I think they finally figured out how to defend GS effectively. If the Rockets just shot the ball a little better they'd have won.

    Rockets continue to step it up on defense in Game 3 and win convincingly 105-90. Rockets went from +10.5 point dogs on the road to home dogs of only +1.5 for Game 3. Vegas knows, but I still think Vegas is off a bit here. Rockets should be 2.5 point favorites IMO, but the lack of respect has the line inflated once again. I'll continue to let Vegas give away free money to me.

    Holding them under 100 at Oracle Arena when they shot over 53% from the floor is pretty impressive. Just cut down on those easy layups and dunks. If you get beat by a jump-shooting team, so be it.
