    This is a pretty devious curveball - one would expect nothing less from this kind of a conspiracy.

    I'm also predicting Rockets 6 or Spurs in 7. It's the most likely outcomes.

    Zach Lowe picked Kawhi for MVP over Harden but expects Harden to beat him in the 2nd round? Something smells fishy...

    media conspiracy in full effect

    This is basically win-win for ESPN/TNT - if they can get a Rockets victory here and then set them up for a big fall vs. Golden State in the WCFs full of Curry mouth guard chews and lame pile-ons from the TNT old grandpa crew, it's a big deal. Durant and Curry will be pronounced "the REAL MVP's" because winning.

    This devilry is unprecedented.

    Zach Lowe Jedi mind trick:

    "This isn't the team you think it is."

    "This isn't the team I think it is."

    "The Rockets will advance to the Western Conference Finals."

    "The Rockets will advance to the Western Conference Finals."

    "You think the Rockets will win in 6."

    "I think the Rockets will win in 6."

    I get from everyone this series is a toss up. Zlowe said as much. I think if the rockets abide by Lawler's 2.0 (first to 120 wins) I think we take this series in great fashion. If Houston can't crack triple digits, then we are boned. OKC showed how adaptable our offense is, which is tremendous. Let's hope MDA still has some tricks up his sleeve.

    The Spurs are always good but some years they are better than other years. That is why they never had defended a title with Duncan.

    Never two in a row. Of course the opponent got better too.

    Conspiracy?

    Media?

    Deserves its own thread?

    Media crawling back?

    Out of control bias?

    Yup...all boxes checked off. I see right through this.

    I think this Spurs team is not the same. The X factor for me will be Dantoni he has to out coach Popovich
