Why are these guys resting? This is their last game of the year. If they aren't hurt they should be playing.
I'm still in the 1sr qtr but I know what the current score is. Looks like we got it. How isn't everyone salivating at a chance at the biggest upset in the history of the sport? We have nothing to lose. No one is in our corner. This lifelong fan of a historically underdog team gets super stoked at that.
Because the Rockets aren't gonna upset anybody but Rocket fans. They are going to get beaten in historically bad fashion by Golden State. It will be the Steph Curry highlight show all over Toyota Center. What real Houston fan would want to watch that?
You play the game. If I had to choose between a lukewarm 13th pick in a super weak draft, vs playing the game and having the chance to record the greatest upset in history? I choose play the game. I want Beverley to eat Curry alive. Class my ass, I want Curry to bleed. I want him to concuss himself into a wall of stellar perimeter D because he actually thought Bev & Co would lay down for him. Warriors are Sloan-ball 2.0 level of dirty with Lakerball smugness. I relish the chance to make them regret underestimating us. We should go in there like a suicide squad. Nothing to lose. No one in our corner. I love it.
Good ball movement, great team defense. Great post option to have when the game slows down. What else you want at this point?
Announcers so smug tonight. "But if the Kings go on a run the Rockets will turn it back on." Based on what? The season says if the Kings come back the Rockets will choke.
