    Now that is what I really like, stepping up like a veteran.

    How many times have we seen Bev turn into a real PG when he gets hit in the mouth? I knew what was going to happen the moment he got hit. Final Form Bev.

    Harden with only two turnovers. D'antoni's serious talk pays dividends.

    So impressed with Harden driving to the basket down OKC's throats when his shot wasn't falling. We didn't see that the last few playoffs.

    Did Barkley even watch the game? Kanter's defense killed OKC. But yes please play both Adams and Kanter so Anderson can bomb them from long range

    Shaq: Houston wanted it more. HCA. MVP is at stake. They wanted it more. 62-38 in paint, 31-4 on 2nd chance points, you're not gonna win the game. Someone else on OKC(Oladipo) has to step up.

    Chuck: When you play the Rockets, you have to get to the boards because you're so spread out. You have to play Ariza, Anderson, Gordon, & Lou Williams, if you don't run to the board, you're in trouble. You have to make a concentrated effort once the ball goes up.

    Shaq: Rockets did what they're supposed to do. OKC will say Oladipo has to step, Westbrook too many turnovers. They'll adjust. They should fly back to OKC & stay in their own beds.

    Chuck: They have to play Kanter more. He's great offensively, great on the boards. I'd play Kanter & Adams together.

    Shaq: That 5-1 switch, they have to make an adjustment. Don't like Kanter/Adams on Harden.

    Most people live outside the loop; It's Sunday night with the next day being a work morning in a busy in bound drive; Most people there are going to get 5 hours or less of sleep; It's a 30+ point blowout; Relax.
