    We've lost to worse teams than that this season. Nothing is a gurantee with this damn team.

    GSw have never beaten us with busy Sam Dekker playing minutes

    So key to victory for te Rockets is to unleash the scrub on the GSW

    I'll say this. we have a better chance of beating the Warriors than any other team not in the top 4 in the west. Especially since golden stae hasn't looked quit as unbeatable this last week.

    I'd still say a sweep or warriors in 5 is the safer bet, but I always belive we have a chance.

    Hell maybe our luck turns around and we get on a hit streak

    I think they can do well against GS, but not so sure they can win against the Kings ..

    The Warriors actually swept Dallas in the regular season that year.

    Warriors lost to the Wolves at home, while we just blew them out.

    They are vulnerable, and tbh, a worse team than they were last year (especially on defense).

    All we ever wanted was a rematch with GS with a healthy D-Mo and Beverley. Well, we got it.

    Harden would have to bounce a pass to a Warrior Jersey on the back at least 10 times a game and get the ball back so he could continue to iso and create for himself or others every single game for the Rox to have a chance. That's how tough it will be. Sorry poor Harden. And this is including having 13 regular assists every single game of the series against the GSW.

    man, the bad teams have given the Rockets the blue print to beat GSW: Double Curry and post Green.

    if I forget the last 81 games (Rockets still need to win 1 more) I think they can shock some people.

    Shock the world by winning A game? Sure, maybe. Win the series? If Curry breaks his leg at some point and the team plays better than they have all season long AND JBB doesn't screw up the lineups.....still probably no.

    In our last game with them we exposed a kink in the armor. It will only take a single proton torpedo.
