    I think this game is really easy to predict. Both teams will be dead tired from 3 games in 5 days. Which team does that hurt more? Portland because they rely so heavily on jumpers. Tired legs not a good thing for your jumpshot. Rockets get way more points in the paint, where tired legs isn't as much a factor. I think we win this one quite easily actually. I'm thinking 10 point victory for the good guys.

    So he should ignore the media? Unfortunately that would lead to a fine, so let him talk!

    Did you forget that our offense is heavily predicated on 3's?

    no way rockets steal 2 in portland. Blazers are just a better run machine at this point as well.

    As a percentage of offense Portland relies more than Rockets on jumpshots. I think the rockets have more ways to beat you offensively. Even Aldridge doesn't score much in the paint; he scores mainly on jumpers. I think tired legs hurts Portland more. Troy Daniels is pretty fresh actually.

    Really? The Rockets have outplayed them in 2 of the games and Harden hasn't even played that well. Meanwhile Aldridge playe like God. Just wait till Harden goes off for an efficient scoring game.

    I believe the winner of this game wins the series. I have to think we are ready to break out. 110-90 Houston.

    Seeing Curry explode and playing defense, I have some hope Harden can do the same for us tonight!!

    I'm sure Bev is playing tonight. But just how much ?
    If things are going well I bet Roxs fans want to see Troy Daniels get more minutes.
    I sure do.
    Small team is interesting when trying to protect a lead. i.e., Keep Scoring !

    a blowout game would be a nice rest for my heart.

    Do it Rockets

    No chance the way the Rockets love to blow any sort of lead they get. It'll be another down to the wire game. Prepare thyself...

    The likelihood of a blowout is really slim

    I agree with you. This is THE game. The character and resolve of the Rockets will be tested like never before. Step up or step aside.
