    Like I said, we can beat these fools. We match up with them better than anyone in the NBA. Our players don't have to be better than their players for 82 games. We just have to be hot for 4 games against them. That's all it takes. Everybody counted us out during both of our championship runs too.

    BTW, I'm a 99er. I was around when we had a game time chat room. I just lost my account when I switched off dial up on ev1.net and couldn't retrieve my account info. I've seen a ton of rockets teams and this is the best since the championship years.

    Astros were not going to beat the mighty Dodgers either

    It was worse on nbatv. Brendan Haywood was basically like "the win doesn't really mean anything, nothing special". But if GS won they'd of been like "great win for the warriors they showed us how much of a championship caliber team they are tonite". The media gets PAID to put Lebron, GS, Pop/SAS & Westbrook on a peddledtool. Hilarious

    Exactly. 17-0 for the haters. People are underestimating this lineup. Theres only 1 ball. KD didn't make GS that much better. CP3 makes us twice as good.

    If we stay hungry and healthy we can. Thats what it will come down to. Does Harden and CP3 want it bad enough to leave everything they have on the court? If so, and we are healthy, we can win a championship.

    GS will lose their hunger at some point. It's human nature.

    As long as CP3 continues to teach Harden how to have heart, we are the clear favorites to win it all.

    Agreed. Who's better than us with our starting lineup? We are 2-1 against the champs. We even hung in there pretty well in our loss to them without Harden. I like our chances.

    EG loses his confidence when Harden is back. I hope EG will adapt to his sixth man role really quickly. He is our 3rd best scorer. Green is insurance when Ariza and he are having a bad game on the scoring end, but EG is critical for our success. Gotta get a Green equivalent for Ryno now too.

    Unfortunately the NBA isn't like the MLB.
    In the playoffs talent wins, and the Warriors have way more of that.
    I'm enjoying the win but i'm not drinking the coolaid. Not until we upgrade our roster.

    Yup. Eric Gordon is necessary but not too bright at times IMO.

    I think Green IS also the Ryno insurance. MDA was subbing in Green at times for Ryno. Think 6-7 Shawn Marion (more offense/less defense) at the 4. I’d love to get Rodney Hood for that role as well.
