    True fake fan. Enjoys the team lost because his idol wasn't there. Fake fans like you should be banned

    Fans of all sports really overrate momentum IMO. There's very little to it in a game where both teams are playing hard.
    Props to our team for continuing to play when the lead got big.

    Winnable game. Great effort. Too many turnovers and missed open shots. Proud of the late comeback, just fell a tad short. Harden didn't shoot well and missed several free throws. Beverly had a very good game. I don't see why the Rockets can't win in Houston. The hold on Parsons (uncalled) may have been the killer.

    Can't really be too mad though, Harden got 20 free throws...20!

    A game of what ifs. What if Asik could finish at the rim from those passes? What if Harden hit all his free throws?
    Damm good game! A little better execution in game 3 and victory shall be ours!

    Well, I will give McHale credit, there was actually a plan for this game, although I am still not a believer in small ball all game long, although they did a surprisingly decent job of keeping Ibaka from punishing them.

    kudos to coach mchale for going with the bacon, lettuce and tomato lineup to start the game. Victory was almost grasped. hope lin is ok. So many dirty things that okc got away with.

    Great game by Rockets! Really proud of those guys, looks like they are growing up! The Rockets really need this series.

    Great game!!! No shame losing to OKC at their home.

    Their confidence is going to be high in Houston!

    Everything great except for the bickering and hate.

    Cheers!~

    I'm not big on moral victories, but the Rockets damn near pulled out a game that looked like a blowout loss in the 4th quarter. The Thunder made just enough plays in the last two minutes and the misses by Asik and Parsons were the difference. But I thought this series was a sweep coming in and now I honestly believe the Rockets can play with this team.

    Durant and westbrook all over TNT and NBATV all the media talking about them in the finals; no way refs call the game fairly. Maybe Adam Silver will change that next year when stern is out.

    I think Beverley's hard nose style inspires the other guys to rough it out a bit more...I'm glad Asik finally started going up with a purpose in the second half.

    Hopefully he's not injured... he's a lot better than Aaron brooks for sure
