    Rockets win in 6. Capela should play better this series and we gotta keep hoping Ryno gets it going.

    I think the Rockets in 7....that's a tall order but I think the Spur's legs catch up with them even on their home court. The predictions are all over the place...JMO of course but it's next to laughable to think that either team will be swept. Yeah, it can happen but not at all likely. Going to have to play Nene more and Anderson can not be invisible..ditto Ariza. I wouldn't mind having Capela and Nene on the court at the same time but depth couldn't take it.Key is to steal game one and make them play from behind !

    Houston has never lost a playoff series to San Antonio. And this includes both baseball and football, too.

    3-0 baby

    We are obviously at a disadvantage defensively BUT they are at a disadvantage offensively.....the higher the scoring, the better for us. If the game get's into the 110 + range I like it. If 115+ I LOVE it ! It should be a great series. We need to win game one on their court to plant doubt in their mind and grow our confidence immensely. Game 2 would be good as well but odds are better for Game 1 I think.

    FYI:We scored 118,115,113 and 105 in wins...also 113 in a loss. Grizzlies scored 82,82 &103 in loses at SA,scored 105 & 110 for 2 wins at home and 96 at home tonight.We have scored 100 in how many? Our offense vs. SA defense.

    Been up watching the Spurs Post game show. They have no respect for the Rockets D. Bonner and the annoying Fox SW guy commenting on how it will be which team can get to 150 first. Sean Elliot also commented on how the Spurs should win the series because the Rockets don't play D just try to out score you. I don't think they have seen the Rockets lately especially in the playoffs the D has improved and the Rockets are due for great shooting game. Can't wait to see what really happens on Monday. Go Rockets!!

    ultimately the game will come down to the 4th where you will see kawhi guarding harden and aldridge (and the other 7 footer, pau gasol) posting up ryan anderson
