    More redemption for you @Air Canada !!!

    Rebounding and transition defense were OKC Achilles Heel.

    Who knew they sucked in protecting the paint too?

    Why is the studied and prepared Cp3 so perplexed and talking about how this was a "feel out game" and "we've never faced a team like this" in regards to the switching and PnR defense.... I guess he got the wrong homework. :(

    WHO??? Could have FORSEEN this reaction???

    Fair :D
    Not to deny anything I said but during the game while watching I texted my buddy and said “why did I fear this team so much, Shai is just a kid (I actually completely forgot the clippers and thought this was his playoff debut but still)”

    I would like to see one more like this to relax and get that last bit of doubt out of my head (2-0 leads over Dallas and Utah blown do that no matter how long ago it was). Yes your analysis was spot on. Yes it appears I was WAY off. I simply did not expect our role players to score well.

    ive said it several times before I don't bet against the rockets on my actual line, but since this dude seems to have a lot to say let see if he'll keep talking after game 1 or just shut up and let the series play out. I got my answer.

    I won't wager on my line but I'll be more than happy to have clutch benefit from this either way

    that's what i thought. calm yourself down and let the actual series play out. instead of running your mouth continuously as if game 1 was the end

    notice how he shut up after multiple posts. Kind of like how you slowed down with the 100 daily reposts of twitter opinions since you can't think for yourself. you're finally realizing how stupid it is bc nobody cares or gives af. foh LOL

    you felt the need to quote me. not the other way around.

    you try to act like some boss around here. complete garbage that's nothing to me. you do you. I'll continue to do me and there's nothing you can do about it.

    you got checked by tinman and immediately changed your post count. but to be fair it made the board better seeing less of your trash

    LOL

    Rockets victories are so much sweeter than being right.

    That's what you thought? That's literally what I said before the series... You were wrong and so was your analysis... You didn't even make substantive basketball arguments for the things you were claiming.

    Lmfao after game 1 of a 7 game series. Classic cf’s. If you really backed up what you’re trying to make yourself to be you’d do a tip jar bet for game 2. You’re scared and passed. So let the series unfold

    You lack reading comprehension... I said Rockets in 6 under the expectation of no Russ for the series... Your "analysis" was even wrong or lacking in substance even for just game 1... CP and his squad were NOT prepared and that's evident not just from the game, but their comments.:rolleyes:

    I couldn’t careless what you said. That’s not what I’m referring to. You keep trying to talk to me after game 1 and saying this and that. But you’re scared of game 2 or something Yeah got it. If everything is going to go the way it did game 1 you should have no issue. But nah scary ass

    If you don't, then stop pretending to respond to it. You literally responded to nothing I said... What did I specifically say before and after game 1? See this is you not speaking in specifics again. I said they would win in 6... Your entire post is incoherent and YOUR "SCARY ASS" can't respond to what was actually said. :confused:
