    Pops was surprisingly honest for his interview and it scared the hell out of the reporters.

    I don't know how people can call this win boring. What's boring is watching the Rockets come out slow or blow leads in the later quarters. Up by 22 at 15 minutes in. NEVER fell below that lead from then on? Against the Spurs? That's not boring. That's savage. Please win by 30 every game, guys.

    The Spurs looked tired and worn out. If we keep playing like we did tonight, I don't know where the Spurs summon enough energy to beat us even if they correct all their mistakes by next game. The Rockets just flat out overpowered them. Don't let up at all, guys. Clamp down even harder.

    Yes. A lot of round 2 left. Anything can happen, but the Rockets could not have wanted a better start and situation to be in.

    Next this team needs to bring out the killer instinct because all of a sudden the realm of 2-0 is possible and they can crush them.

    Spurs have pedigree and the big name. I'm proud of the Rockets for not being intimidated in the slightest. And believe it or not. The OKC series felt tough and grueling to me regardless of 4-1.

    Let's not forget, last year SA blewout OKC, then got swept.

    I'm NEVER very confident with HOU teams.


    Great game tonight though. What a way to begin the series !!! Similar to '95.

    This is what happens when you try to run with the rockets but your whole team is still waiting on boo boo to sit

    When you want to run with the Rockets but your whole squad pays with checks at the grocery store.

    My DVR crapped out on me.

    I am trying to replay the game but for some reason I am getting a pre-season Rockets Spurs game where some scrub named Wiltjer is playing in the 4th.

    Anyone got the real feed?

    This is what happens when you want to run with the Rockets but your team trainer has to keep metamucil stocked.

    They finally did something I wanted them to do versus OKC. Got the damn ball out of Kawhi's hands. Always had help to make sure he didn't kill us tonight. We might see more Simmons and Daemon now.
