    I am also going with Houston in 6. Team better be ready for the moving screens and do not get involved with the refs.

    From day 1, Rockets were specifically mentioning the Warriors as the team they need to defeat. They wanted the Warriors and will get them.

    Pressure is on the Warriors, no one will pick the Rockets and most will pick a Warrior's sweep so that's even more pressure especially if we can get a 1 or 2 games.

    Last year's WCF was MUCH closer than the 4-1 result. Both Games 1 and 2 came down to the last possessions and only Game 3 was a clear cut Warriors win.

    I don't know but I kind of like our chances. Don't get me wrong, its still minuscule but I think the Rockets, in the very least, will get 1 or 2 games and be in pretty much every game.

    Maybe the Warriors will start to feel the tire of winning the championship last season then getting 73 this season?

    Rockets shock the world and themselves, win in 6.

    The Rockets have been an epic disappointment...but I expect Dwight to ball out...and expect the Warriors to continue to own us...it wont be pretty...a few games could be close...but thats about it...

    4-0 Warriors... :(
