    I actually think this game helped re-enforce what a lot of posters was saying before the series--The Rockets match up really well against the Wolves.

    The Rox played a **** game (aside from the MVP, of course), nobody could hit a shot, the refs went on vacation, and CP3 looked like *ME* out there. This was going against at very, very talented Wolves team at full strength while Anderson and LMBAM, two pretty key rotation players, were out.

    Rockets Win. They'll figure everything out, and I have no doubt about that. The team is too smart, too well-coached, and too hungry to keep playing flat.
    I'm going to celebrate the win with my non-existent girlfriend now.

    Cheers

    Edit: Capela was pretty dope too :p

    It wasn't as bad as some of the other travels I saw tonight but it was definitely a travel.

    But Towns was subpar as well. Wolves will take it to game 6/7.

    This could go in about 20 different threads, but I wish people would stop looking at the Timberwolves like they're a lowly 8 seed.

    Before Butler's injury they were sitting 3rd in the West behind us and GS.

    Not too sure why so many people thought this was going to be an easy series. The Timberwolves were the last team I wanted to face out of the NO/SA/MI selection.

    He’s not the old Derrick Rose but he’s not done either. He can still play and the Rockets need to respect him and guard him.

    THIS is how Harden hating concern troll tries to crawl back into our lives.

    Don't let him win.

    words can’t describe how garbage Chris Paul was...the crowd was turning on him

    CP3 and Bobby Brown switched bodies

    Only a performance as lacking as CP3’s could overshadow the horrors of watching Ariza and PJ Tucker miss open shot after open shot. Eric Gordon too.

    He didn't walk around at all. Based on the view from the Rockets broadcast, once he put that right foot down it never moved.

    They did cut away quickly though so I dont know what happened between him trying to hand the ball to the ref and the dunk on the other end.

    I saw Enis interview Capela after the game that’s why I thought there’d be a home feed
