    For real I wish the rest of CF would get down with that.

    Lol at this tnt crew

    Warriors don't have Go Burt

    We finna feast on the warriors

    These knuckleheads don't understand how many ways we can win games

    Utah's defense is legit so I'm not concerned about Harden not having the answer in this series. No team left has an anchor in the paint like that.

    It took one of CP3’s best game of his life to put away a severely under-manned/talented Jazz team. Probably up there among the worst playoff opponents we’ve ever faced along with that Mavs team that imploded in 2015.

    Not exactly the vote of confidence most are looking for.

    Kenny is saying Draymond will take away CP3 mid range jumper when the Warriors go small.

    He forgets that plays to what the Rockets want. It will be alley hoop after alley hoop for Clint.

    Chris Paul really made it a personal mission to win this game. Love it. Still got that second gear. Now Harden maybe he's tired. Well he has a few days of rest I hope that would be enough to get his second wind. i hope the warriors loses tonight. Though highly unlikely but weirdest things have happened this play off. Im just happy that there was no major injury and were going to the third round.

    Nah I think, he said "Mighty Warriors." That's just how Shaq talks.

    We will find out if the Rockets have another gear they can take. The current performance is unacceptable, will get swept against a locked in GSW.

    Paul has also had only one turnover in the last 3 games.

    As long as we get the ring I really don't care what they say. They can even say the only reason we won this year is because MJ retired.

    Get out. Harden has never been swept in his life. Harden will get 2 W's on his own. Bet on that.

    Wasn't expecting them to praise us and pick us to win. Just didn't expect them to ignore the fact that teams often play down to their competition when they are clearly favored. We aren't motivated like a championship team, I agree with that. But to think we have NO shot, after a weej ago it was a 7 game series?

    Great getting the Win. Great history-making game for Paul -- on multlple levels.

    Sorry Stars have gotten hurt all year against us.. but that's sports, right ?

    I wasn't very confident in beating Golden State (refs included) entering tonight and hoped for a blowout, but Rockets are the BEST team they have faced since they became All-World. HCA doesn't hurt.

    TNT should fire all these talking heads.

    They are openly telling fans the WCF will be 5 game or less and Rockets don't have a chance so don't bother watching.

    Even if there was any truth to that, why not hype the hell out of this matchup so people tune in?

    Forget basketball. This is dumb for business.

    Ernie takes one night off and the clowns takeover.
