    I pray I'm dead wrong but LA in 6.

    No answer for Paul or Blake and Harden plays god awful vs Clippers. Tough task

    Crap on a pickle. I don't like this matchup. My heart screams rockets win and go to the conference finals. But my brain says we lose 4-2. Split here. We lose game one, win game 2, play a couple of tough ones in clip land, lose by a couple points in both games with officiating being questionable in 1. Smoke me in game 5 and then fall in game 6.

    Come of Rox. I DARE you to make me eat my own **** without any salt. PLEASE prove ,e wrong against three putz's

    I hope and wish we can pull this off, but watching the Clippers just now against SA, this is going to be a VERY hard series to win.

    Unfortunately, I see the Clippers winning in 6 or less. Horrible, I know

    Shame we won't play the Spurs big 3 in a playoff series. We just don't match up with the Clips well. CP3 will eat Terry's lunch. Much as I love my Rockets, Clippers will win in 6. Rockets aren't a great defensive team and they have excellent shooters especially Crawford who makes every damn lucky ass shot he throws up.

    I am only worried about Crawford if we can contain him which is basically their whole bench we can win the series

    Clips in 6 , i will be surprised if houston can keep up with the way the defense has looked lately. I hate this matchup

    Can't stand Griffin.
    Can't stand Paul.
    Can't stand Barnes.
    Redick is a douche.

    I feel like I'm one of the only rockets fans who actually wanted the Rockets to face the Clippers instead of the Spurs. Everyone keeps saying Rockets are ****ed, but the clippers have no bench and we went 2-2 with them this season. Versus 1-3 on the spurs.

    If the Rockets are on point, they can beat the Clippers. Even without Paul's hamstring issue.
