    only reason i didnt say tyson is that he's a valuable coach off the bench. I remember seeing tweets about him really helping the defense by yelling from the bench. Bruno / DM ejection is def meaningless.

    Bruno looks like hes bulked up a bit. Demarre just looks sharp . An elbow from him would cut

    Good points about Tyson. Bruno is too soft. DeMarre definitely looks fitter. He hit a good jumper in the last few minutes in Game 5. An elbow from him to Schroeder or Adams would be welcome if OKC hit any of our main guys.

    PS: Guard Galinari and SGA all night long. That will be 50 percent of the game.

    Predicted this over in 6, don't see why it wouldn't end that way. Unless Dort can all the sudden hit an average clip of 3s or better this is over. They need him for defense but he single handedly is ruining their whole offensive game. GG

    It's pretty shitty to make that comment.
    On a side note- do you have any pics of his gf?
    Heard she's hot.

    without gifted FT's okc would have gotten swept and we'd already be into round 2

    When we get up by 25+ in the 3rd Q, lets bring in Tyson Chandler for some "screens" on Schroder.

    I'm pumped for this game. I expect it to be tough as OKC is fighting for their season and don't think we can count on the Rox to shoot as hot at 3 as they did last game but I think we can pull this out.

    GO ROX!!!

    Yesterday, D'Antoni said he had "no issues" physically so I'm assuming he's good. He's not missing the closeout game

    Rockets gonna finish it tonight. Harden has another big game and I'm hoping Russ will feel a little more confident tonight on his quad. Definitely gonna have a bigger game than he did in g5. GO HOUSTON!

    RoCo-Capela trade was catalyst to the #1 defense Rockets are now playing.

    Offense still needs to catch up. Could be skewed by all the games Russ missed or maybe due to higher turnovers when Russ on court.

    Hopefully Westbrook continues to knock off the rust in time for the Lakers.
