    hard for OKC fans to be salty imo

    they played way above their heads and any self-respecting fan would have to realize that the refs gave them multiple games that series.

    Even CP3 was surprised when they called that foul. The contact was so minimal he hadn't even attempted to sell it with an awkward, obvious flop.

    No joke, I had the most vivid dream ever last night that OKC won.

    Woke up and was very confused. Usually my dreams make no sense at all. This one really messed with me for a solid minute or so.

    That last Gallanari FT shot was one of the most pathetic call ever. Let the players play, if the Rockets lose, we will be protesting the game like the GS Warriors game. I thought the NBA was calling fouls for purposely flopping. When King James does it, NBA can't really stop it. Lovington is the real Scottie Pippen.

    At this point all you can do is laugh really. Borderline WWE territory.

    I think @Mr. Space City has become more toxic for Rockets fans than Scott Foster. What a turd! Trying to kill celebration vibes is pretty GD low. I had to block MSC’s ass like Harden blocked Dort. Get that **** outta here. Bye.

    What the hell...I had the same dream as well. I dreamt that i checked the score and we got blown out. I was struggling to understand how that was possible.

    The other thing I liked last night aside from the Harden block on Dort was seeing the sadness on Giannis' face after the gm 2 loss to the Heat. Apparently, the officiating was out of control in that game too.

    Was anyone else annoyed AF at Mark Jones who came every time Dort did something yet any great Rockets play was mildly celebrated save a few. Some even begrudgingly.

    Game 7 technically was our home court. Virtual or not, commentary was AWAY commentary. I'd settle for neutral. "Dort this, CP3 teach that"...occasionally we get a EGO is playing better.

    Just about had an anxiety attack watching the 4th quarter last night. I’m relieved we pulled it out.
    Beat LA, beat LeBron.

    We won this game in site of..

    Thunder shooting 47% from Downtown

    Scott Foster's insanity

    James not having it offensively

    We won with taking care of the ball and playing great Defense.

    EG and RoCo..once again played at the level we need them too if we're gonna win it all.

    Russ looked much better..like he needed a couple of tighteners. His performance tonight was a quantum leap.
    It gives me oodles of confidence against LA.
