Thanks. I guess I won't need to watch anymore basketball since the games are rigged and the Rockets can't win. I didn't watch the Warriors/Clippers game. But the box score shows the Clippers with more free throw attempts than the Warriors.
The warriors game plan is to just run up the score early and then let their bigs Greene, cousin, looney punish the other team. The key is they don't care who runs the score up, they had cousins and Greene hitting early threes! Thompson in the post! Wtf!!!!! Looney in the post right off the bench!!!smh
Remember that we were built to beat the Warriors. The gives us an edge that other teams don't have. Speaking of the refs, someone on Twitter said: "The Warriors are so good they don't need the refs to win. But..."
I've been here those series and the one in 80 against the Celtics - That was a different era of the NBA …. since then the league has really changed. Remember that Lakers series against the Kings ? That was a travesty … worse than last years Rockets / GSW series where they got every critical call - Same thing happened to the Clippers tonight. If the Rockets are to get past GSW , they not only have to beat them but they have to beat the Zebra's too and that's tough to do 4 times in 7 games. They are the media darlings with all that star power …and the league wants them back in the finals because they are a big draw. They've already changed the rules because of Harden drawing fouls …. they have taken away many 4 point play opportunities throughout the season … they tend to swallow their whistles even in the regular season cause he draws so much contact - I expect more of that in the post season. Sure , it can be done but I aint holding my breath or betting the house on it …. The odds are stacked against them.
I am sorry but i will feel devastated.We are in the apex of Hardens prime so hence any season we fail to advance is a lost season!. We have arguably one-of the top 5 scorers of all time at his absolute peakeso we need to cash in now.
I totally get what you're saying. We can be confident that the Rockets have the personnel, the talent, the attitude, the coaching, the urgency, the EVERYTHING to take down the Warriors. Then you factor in the refs and you don't feel as certain about it. If you were forced to wager everything you own on this series would you pick the Rockets, or the Warriors+Zebras? That said, we've got a better chance than any other team again this year, regardless of the regular season. And we would have won last year, despite the refs, if CP3 hadn't gone down.
I think the window is cracked open; this is our best chance. Got to seize the moment. I have doubts, but we just got to do this. Beep, beep, beep! Somebody got to do it!
What a way to go through life. OP they haven't even played the first game of the series and you're preparing yourself in case they lose? Enjoy the process and whatever is going to happen is going to happen. It's just a GAME for crying out loud.
My expectation was one or two rounds for playoffs before the start of the season. all good going forward.
