    I'm curious to see how the Rockets respond to the last game. They will either 1. be deflated from having put forth such a great effort and still ended up losing or 2. be really pissed off at Perkins/the refs/everything (plus the Westbrook-Beverley feud) and this game will be ridiculously intense. I hope it's the latter.

    Get a win!!!

    Hopefully Lin will be back in the lineup so we wont have to watch Aaron Brooks play in this series every again. Apart from his drive against Westbrook, his 4-minute stint was horrible >_<

    Lin plays and plays well.

    Durant gets his.

    Beverley gets in WB head and WB blows a lot of shots.

    Harden gets his average but with a FG% > 40%

    Asik battles OKC frontline to a draw.

    Close game but Rockets execute flawlessly down the stretch to WIN!

    Toyota Center goes nuts!

    I predict a loss, but a Game 4 win.

    Rockets will take game three, and calls will be on the rockets side considering the bad call in game two. I don't know about game four, but lets hope Scott Brooks doesn't figure out small ball in that matter.

    I also think it's gonna be a split but with the Rockets winning Game 3.
    My original prediction was
    Game 1 and 2: HOU takes one of two surprisingly
    Game 3: OKC makes partial adjustments and HOU has a hard fought win
    Game 4: OKC fully adapts to HOU and win handily
    Game 5 and 6: HOU is out of tricks and OKC advance

    With the Game 2 loss, my predictions for the remaining games don't change except for OKC to advance with Game 5 victory.

    A must win game for us if we want to defeat OKC and go to the next round.
