    This game is the real game 1.

    We are going to get the Spurs best punch. If we can take it and stay in the game, Spurs are in trouble.

    BTW - Jeff Biglydick has put in great work so far in both Game 1's against OKC and Spurs. Our defense looked great in these games. Hope he continues putting in work

    I was at that game...literally could not believe that I was seeing 1 guy dominate the box score like that, and it didn't even look like he was really trying

    Harden dropped a nonchalant 53, 16, and 17 on the Knicks' head

    I'm not sure what statement Harden was making here, so I have no idea what this chop means.

    Edit: I whiffed on a few details.

    This tweet describing Harden's "style of play", the "aesthetics," is what dooms Harden with the TV (hottake) media. They just can't identify with his methodical approach. And thus, is a big strike against him with #narrative and MVP voting type stuff.

    Someone said it in another thread, but probably in response to Athreeza's Players' Tribune article where he described James as Picasso.

    And the striped referee uniform might be a subliminal message to the refs that they better not screw us in this series :)

    Same. I know all the arguments about our advantages over them this series, but it's the damn Spurs. They've been written off so many times over recent years, yet keep finding ways to win.

    I won't be counting them out until they're actually six feet under and the tombstone is struck.

    It will be sweet if the rockets win game tonight be up 2-0 going back home but the most important game to win is game 3 no matter we are 2-0 0r 1-1.

    Last time we played them in the playoffs we took 2 from them in SA then they tied it back in Houston so never write anything off.
