    This will be like a rematch in boxing where in the first fight someone got knocked out. The 1st period will be HUGE because they are determined to show the first game was a fluke and redeem themselves. If they get off to a slow start again, it'll plant doubt that uh oh...we're in trouble again... much like the boxing rematch where the guy that was knocked out throws some determined shots early only to take a barrage and remind himself where the previous fight ended...with him on his back.We have a big psychological advantage to start.

    I will post the same gif as I did in the Game 1 thread in hopes of the same result. And also because it's accurate.

    It's just a gut feeling, but when the shark (Rockets) smells the blood, the victim is done before its knows! Hoping for same thing here, how sweet it would be to sweep Spurs.

    I don't see the spurs winning any games unless LMA snaps out of it. I think he hears the media talking about him and he's lost all confidence. I'm not sure if he shows back up in this series.

    Trap game. We should not be getting complacent tonight. There is a tendency to do it with our history

    I'm down with Houston taking another huge dump on their floor and making them clean that ****.

    The Spurs (outside of KL) don't have the athleticism to guard our perimeter shooters and be able to stay with guys like James, Lou and PB when they take it to the hole. Getting in the paint breaks their D down, and it's leaving guys with great looks (or easy buckets in the paint). Will be there all series.

    I anticipate a big game from Mills and Aldridge. Overtime. Refs decide the winner 112-108.

    No way the league doesn't take this series to at least 6 games. Ratings galore.

    The league couldn't take the OKC series to 6 games either. Refs will be refs.....but Rockets just needs to come out focused big time on the defensive end and everything else will come together.

    Take game 2.
