    Uh, it's over. Sure, the Rockets could come out and win on Monday(they won't BTW) and at least extend the series, but this is two straight 3-point losses that they were in position to win. They're a young team going through some growing pains, but unfortunately one of the remaining lessons they'll be forced to endure this postseason is learning what it's like to be swept on your home floor.

    4-1 Sorry.
    And Harden a leg injury problem.
    Is been fun watching this team. Now let's fire Mchale, get a real coach and bring a player that can help us be a 3rd seed next year.

    I try not to let my love blind me.

    But if there's any chance of this happening, it's with this matchup. The way we play them, we can actually pull off 4 victories in a row. It's awfully difficult, I wouldn't be surprised if we take the next two. But four is hard, we can do it, but i doubt it happens.

    we like your enthusiasm but face the reality


    the chances of coming back from 0-3 are slim to none

    The Thunder aren't very good without Westbrook. They needed the help of the refs and a whole bunch of lucky shots to go in to win..Rockets in 7!:eek:Rockets are better then the Thunder you can't tell me otherwise. Rockets will sweep the Thunder 4-0 to win in 7 games... WHO'S WITH ME!!:mad:

    Nothing like gut wrenching losses to bring out junk threads:rolleyes:
    I like the OP optimism but the Rox can't execute enough. I agree Thunder after that first half look bad. I predict they are going down to whoever they play in second round.

    They said Harden wasn't a max salary type of player

    he came out and suprised the world.

    They said Asik wasn't worth his contract

    He became our daily double-double

    They said Lin can't ball

    he changed the atmosphere of a dying franchise and gave it life.

    they said we'll rebuild this year and try for the playoff the next.

    we made it as high as the 6th seed.

    They said OKC will blow us out and we don't stand a chance

    We played the western champs down to the last seconds

    and now they say no team in history have ever made it out with a 0-3 record

    Don't we got a lineup full of guys that likes to break historical records?

    Right now they're scared, the mighty thunder aren't celebrating, they're trying to come up with a contingency plan, because at any given moment, the Rockets can come blazing out of the gate and steal the show.

    although we're lacking in experience, we make it up with heart. And you do not ever, underestimate the heart of a champion.

    Inspirational. No but really, we're down 0-3. Its over.

    Unless Beverly "Nancy Kerrigan's" Durant in game 4, we have no shot of winning this series.

    even with one of their stars out they still have the best player in this series and a much better cast surrounding their lone star then we do.. these teams find ways to make clutch shots and close out close games while our team finds ways to lose them. i would be happy if we can win game 4 were going to need one of those games where we shoot lights out and win by 10..

    Can you believe we've lost 5 straight and 6 of our last 7?

    You're completely right, the series is only over after they sweep us.
