    Our MVP named after one of the OGs of Christendom, their MVP named after a keyboard.

    Just sayin'

    Warriors and Cavs won shooting 3s. You need to stretch the floor to win.

    Also, the Rockets don't just rely on 3s, they just cut out the mid range game. It's a big myth the Rockets only shoot 3s, if they did they would truly suck because all teams would have to do is guard the perimeter.

    Who here agrees that 30 points doesn't seem like a sufficient lead?

    Realistically 40+ lead will be sufficient in my opinion. Keep driving and playing SMART Rockets!

    Before the season it was Harden and a bunch rejects. Now Harden is surrounded by a team of super shooters.

    If this was against Golden State (30 pt lead at half) I still wouldn't be comfortable

    He has a begrudging tone about the praise he gives us...he's not inwardly happy. Neither is Shaq.

    Harden is so good and D'antoni's system is so good that this supporting cast is seen as being 1 of the best in the league. If Daryl Morey gets another star then they'll say that Harden is playing on the modern day Dream Team. I'll take it as a testament to Harden and D'antoni's greatness.

    Like I said earlier, all gas no brakes!! Spurs aren't just gonna quit, so we gotta keep attacking and scoring.
