    James Capers is the head ref this game. He did game 1 along Ben Taylor who is not apart of the crew this time. Thoughts on him?

    I’ve got a good feeling, like I had before game 6 vs. Clippers almost a decade ago. I hope we can win tonight and continue winning this series in 7!

    I think the NBA would definitely like this to go to game 7. I don’t think they have quite as much incentive as previous years to move GSW along now that the Lakers are out. I’m pretty sure they see that no amount of fixing will get GSW past the Wolves, so they might like our story a little better against the Wolves than watching GSW getting slaughtered. Who knows? They are still the 2nd biggest TV draw in the league.

    They can’t fall into the trap of the mind games the Warriors will play. They need to play a clean game that forces the refs to call the bull crap that the Warriors do.

    Come out fast and aggressive, and put the Warriors on their heels. That will be the key. Obviously free throws are a different story, but I think this is definitely Winnable.

    Did they not expect this to be only NBA game tonight? 9 pm EST start time for the only NBA game is ridiculous.

    Rockets need to be very focused at the start of the 2nd half. Warriors are good at catching teams off guard and getting on big runs in the 3rd quarter. That was their M.O. during their Klay Thompson years.

    Draymond will know his leash is long today. Every card of his will be on the table. The refs will not have the balls to eject him or give him T's in a Game 6 at home. Will need to start with the tactics first instead of responding to his. He was sedated last game but will be in full terror mode today.

    Amen legacy game incoming.

    At least it's not 10 or 10:30 EST, which is what I was expecting.

    8 CST is a normal game time for Rockets fans

    They are convinced in California they took a breather last game as a vet team. We take their soul if we beat them tonight.
