    So you expected us to go 8-0

    But now after this loss you dont expect us to beat the warriors right? Boo hoo here's some kleenex

    Yes I'm sad as a Rocket fan that it looks pretty dim not winning a championship.

    Any other season that didn't have "the greatest team ever assembled" I wouldn't mind showing some struggles in the first round but not in this weather of the Warriors.

    The entire series actually. Not a single game against this first round match up, we showed signs of domination.

    Yes, for me to be confident that this team is capable of beating the Warriors 4 out of 7, the Rockets need to show domination in their first round match up. I'm sorry, but that is basic logic in my eyes.

    You seem to hate when people have different opinions than you... Almost at a personal level .

    Some people need to relax. In 93-94 the Rockets lost 8 games in the playoffs and lost 7 games in the 94-95 playoffs. Many of those losses were double digits.

    If Harden still plays like garbage next game, another bad loss is coming.

    The Wolves get their confidense.

    I think the Warriors are a bit better than the Knicks.

    Ya I thought so. You have issues with making things personal. Why? Stick to GARM topics.

    Me: "This is really one of the greatest days of competitive playoff basketball I've ever seen" Rockets: "OH yeah! watch this!"

    No. He was not.

    He started to seriously play when we lose 20pts.
    Most of time Harden was sleepwalking.

    We just almost got blown out by 20 this game and Harden had to have a magical game 1 for the Rockets to win by 3.

    I understand that in any other era, our hopes for a title run would still be solid, but not in this era.
