    The series is 2-0 but I honestly think the Rockets are still the better team. If we shut down Aldridge or at least limit him to nothing more than a 30 point game or if James Harden catches fire than it's over for the Trailblazers. Rockets aren't out yet they only set themselves up to potentially make history.

    Also, I know everyone on this forum is a hard core Rockets fan and we need to band together and show support rather than disgust. The series is seriously 2-0. 3-0 and it's virtually impossible but 2-0 has been done before. Can we just be the best fan base in basketball and continue to cheer and not b****?

    I got a Mohawk and shaved the Rockets logo in the side of my head for this series. I'm not giving up on them that easily and neither should anyone else.

    Hail Rockets!!!

    Harden is being exposed for the fraud superstar he's made himself out to be, this team isn't going anywhere with this black hole and a moron like Mchale as coach

    Too soon to say that. I'll admit I am disappointed by the amount of heart they show but **** just give them the opportunity to finish out the series before completely dogging our superstar.

    some people are tired of rooting for houston sports and consistently being let down.

    anyone else expect this thread to be from a newer member? This coming from a former poster who lost his account when the site switched domains.

    that's the spirit but yeah formal formal we still have 5 games to go. if we win 2 against the blazers home court (which is very difficult) everything would be even out

    The Harden hate is rather annoying.

    He's slumping at the wrong time. Let the series play out. Clutchfans is an estrogen sesh pool at the moment.

    I actually believe we will win this series.

    LMA averaging 40, that isn't gonna keep up. Harden playing this terrible, that isn't gonna keep up.

    Rockets won 2 games in Dallas in 2005 prior to losing the series, Rockets lost 2 games to Suns at home in 1994 prior to winning that series. I still believe tbh.

    It's insane people are talking about trading him. He's been awfuk but **** we wouldn't be here without him. He will snap out of it. Kinda reminds me of LBJ in the finals in 11 just bounced around the first 2 games then snapped out of it after he got a lot of heat even though they lost the series lol

    Normally I'd agree, but Harden's had 1 good playoff game in 2 seasons now. The Rockets are probably up 2-0 if he decides to show up tonight or Sunday, but he's just been awful. He deserves all the criticism he gets, because he's being exposed.

    Top players dont slump when their team just lost hca and is facing going down 2-0 to face something only 3 teams have ever came back from. He said he was rusty, what is his excuse now? Tmac would have been killed for 8/18 not 4/18 and just losing the game.
