    Seems Rockets have mostly lost @ POR during my lifetime. From Roy's 40' buzzer beater to Porter or Kersey getting off.

    WE BALLIN HARD

    Rockets win only hitting 10 3PTs. Great % though.

    BEASTS on the road !!!

    I do believe that is the line up I called for at the end of the 3rd

    Rocket River
    Anderson was the alternative

    Sure Harden scored 48 on 29 shots, but he didn't get a triple double, so it was an awful game.

    Some Blazers fans might disagree with you.

    That was absolutely incredible in the fourth. I think we found our small ball death lineup that can matchup with the Warriors.

    Paul
    Harden
    Gordon
    Tucker
    Ariza

    I still can’t believe we got Chris Paul. I hope people understand how huge this is going to be in the playoffs.

    Sometimes when the Blazers lose I get really pissed off. Not so much tonight. As Sheed used to say, "Both teams played hard".

    Not even mad. Both teams balled their asses off.

    Yep, and we needed a good start to the 4th quarter. CP3 was the difference and James closed it out.

    Here is the thing . .. . This game is so delicious because the REFS ABSOLUTELY KILLED US
    Those first Three quarters was some of the worse . . .. . . .
    I was thinking 'letting them play' in the fourth would hurt us because we were shooting so many free throws
    but man . . . the second the rockets stopped getting called for ticky tack bullshit fouls that were not fouls . . . .. .
    They took off

    The Refs sandbagged us for three quarters and we still won

    You should feel pretty good, especially considering Nurkic didn't play.

    A friend of mine is a longtime Blazers fan and he's trying to get tickets to a suite for the Jan 10th game in Houston. If he does, I'm included!

    This reminds me of that Astros-Twins game when the Twins were up 8-2 going into the 8th inning and the 'Stros proceeded to score 11 runs in the inning to go up 13-8.

    This team looks like they truly believe they can turn the switch on whenever they want to.

    Paul is slowly looking for his shot more and damn did we need it tonight.

    Interesting the Blazers took away the pnr and the 3s and we just isod them to death with Harden, Paul, and Gordon. Blazers fans will look at the FT difference and squawk but it was those three attacking open lanes over and over.
