    We are built to defeat them. We will beat them in a 7 game playoff series given a whole season of us gaining chemistry.

    Winning makes a difference. There have been a lot of games where he's started off hot and we stopped feeding him the ball but we're winning so he's happy. Now when you lose and you aren't getting the ball that's when questions are asked. He definitely had a big impact today

    Don't jinx it. What ticks me off is that if the Rockets hadn't blown that Mavs game, we'd be in the midst of a huge win streak right now. Either 8 or 9 games. Then again, they had big comeback wins on the road against the Grizz and Spurs, so you win some, you lose some.

    I think they'd be wise to rest Parsons the next two games(assuming Garcia is ok). At Utah is a game they should win. And back home against Phoenix isn't a gimme(the Suns are respectable this season), but it should be a win. Let him relax and heal up like Harden did. Cuz that sure did pay dividends tonight against the Spurs.

    The sweet part tonight's win, we put some doubt to the Spurs. As good as their records, this home loss plus the previous one against OKC will really bother them for awhile. The spurs are showing it on spurstalk.

    One of the most satisfying wins of the season.

    The Rockets need to prove it, but I would not be stunned if the Rockets are the better team by May. The Rockets will ebb and flow as the year goes on, but they have the ingredients to be legitimate contenders.

    If they become less complacent, it's actually going to be more difficult to beat them next time.

    Mchale said something like Pop should hit him so he could have the play back or something like that. Pop went nuts.

    Any news on CP's back injury? Did McHale say something about it on his post game interview?

    It was definitely a good win. Although I've seen enough of what's happened in the last several years to not be as steadfast as you after one good win. Also, I'm curious why after my full post, you went and picked out one player, and commented "without" him. Maybe you are so onesided in your thinking that you read my post as onesided too, and picked out the one player you wanted to focus.

    Since you picked out one player... for the record, I think Lin definitely would have been very useful tonight, and could have helped the team tremendously.

    Just to clarify...

    McHale said he told Pop to hit him (him = McHale) to get payback for McHale trolling on that inbounds play?
