    Gotta take that first punch and hang in there tonight.
    They'll be amped up at home but if we take their first punch and stand tall both their team and crowd will be shook.

    I think whoever wins this game, wins not just the series, but the championship. Its that important of a game.

    Yes... the Rockets would still be happy with a split, and then they just have to win out at home, but I think momentum will be everything coming out of this game, and ultimately it will be hard to recover after such a big game where both teams probably have the scouting and feel for the other team to the point where they figure that this is what they have to do.

    Houston just has to win 1 of the next 2.

    Its time GSW felt a little pressure. I would enjoy watching Durant and Green collapse mentally. Durant is due for some bad shooting games.

    Can’t wait for ten to have a bad games. We just have to have kept playing with energy for 48 minutes and taking it to them.

    9 down, 7 to go.

    marc davis, who worked our loss at MIN

    silver has now completed 5 out of 5 of the worst possible officials for HOU, with Foster Brothers now ready to return and start the cycle anew for game 4

    And "Mean Green" bring his best and bring the necessary fire to fill the basket.

    Not feeling this - 8 Vegas line

    Looks like we gonna be down early trying to come back all game.
    Rockets need to have a lead to start the 3rd to be able to withstand their 3rd quarter runs

    Houston shifted its offense last game to one that resorted the early season offense that was blowing opponents out.

    I think Houston's second half/playoff offense until game 2 was an offense that relied on its talent more than team.

    This. Fully expect the W’s to come out super aggressive to start. I’d love to see us do the same thing and come out full speed like we did against Utah in game 3.
