    I posted as soon as it happened in the game thread. @DreamShook is evidence

    2nd most in playoff history

    1st is the 1962 Lakers but I dont consider that NBA

    So let's say Rockets hold the record for the ONLY 50 point quarter in NBA playoff history

    Went very quickly from "oh sh*t PJ is out, we may be fu**ed." To "50 point quarter, uhh YEAH we're on GS level."

    My sob story.

    Leaving work around 7:10 pm.

    Select the Rockets app to listen to the game on the way home. Excited, even giddy with the competitive Basketball I am hearing on the Bluetooth stream on the passage home, never doubting the inevitable victory. Alas, still wanting to listen on the ride home so I can read the terrible Max Kellerman Threads that bandwagon fans will inevitably flood the board within 5 hours.

    Pulling up to CourtOfDreams Manor, smelling the freshly cut grass on the property as I walk to the front door. Rockets up 3 or so with 1 min left in the 2nd as I open the door to my house.

    Mrs. CourtOfDreams tried to have the game ready when I walked in. I recently got the DirectTvNow with an Apple 4K so I am streaming only. Up unto this point, DirectTv Now via Apple TV has had the Heart Of Champion. But alas, I was not meant to see Houston History.

    The Direct Tv Now app had a server failure.

    Thinking, of course, as any Houstonian, Comcast had ****ed me, I called, I waited, I reset the router.

    It was the Direct Tv Now app my friends. I had to pull out one of the many older Apple iPads I had in a drawer and begin the Reddit Streams.

    To my chagrin, we were up by 30! I had only missed one quarter!

    As I begrudgingly ate my brown buttered sea scallops with a celeriac puree, ramps, and bacon lardons. I had to hear about how we had scored the 2nd most points in NBA history in a quarter all through the rest of the game. If it wasn't for the fact that scallops were cooked perfectly, it would have been a very hard meal to swallow.

    I missed out on history.

    You blew it by not turning on the radio. My DirecTV fails during to weather at times and my 1995 alarm clock radio always comes through.

    I will indeed not complain if we have more 50 point quarters.

    50 points in the first half, 50 points in the 3rd quarter. Unbelievable, but I saw it so I believe.

    Sam Dekker is dating Kevin Harlin daughter, so there is this hostility towards the Rockets when he got traded.
