    McLemore the leading scorer?!
    Westbrook 2nd & 2 rebounds/assists shy of a triple double?!
    Russ a +13 (tied with House for best)?!
    Harden going full playoff Harden?!
    How are they winning with all these scrubs?!

    Bad night for haters @Os Trigonum

    Yeah, we are just faster and more athletic.

    I don't always like the small lineups, PHX bigs are trash so we can get away with it tonight, but our small ball lineups are good especially since we still get boards considering Russ rebounds better than many bigs.

    Oh you are going to upset some Harden nut riders with the Harden playoff mode comment.

    But unfortunately there is too much truth in the statement.

    Great 2nd quarter after slow start in the first. Harden looks like he’s coming down with something from his body language. High energy from WB and Ben Mac finally playing well when coming off the bench. If he can keep up this kind of consistency the 2nd unit can beast once EGO gets back.

    the worst . . . but I'm sure they're in the bushes with their candles and prayer shrines hoping the Rockets come out flat in the 3rd quarter.

    I really like when Clint kicks it out to Westbrook, and then Westbrook drives it right back in for the Clint lob/dunk.

    That’s a playoff play.

    McLemore going for Most Improved this year. Keep this up and it is a lock.

    Anything's possible but Harden's very predictable style of offense becomes easier to defend in a 7 game series. I'm not going to say it's impossible. The Rockets very well could have won it all in 2018.
