    The Rockets were never up 3-1 on the Warriors.

    One of the best things we have going for us is media disbelief. It's motivation for us and demotivation for our opponents.

    When the Spurs lost to the Heat in the finals....and came back the next year....they were on a mission. That is how I am looking at this Rockets team.

    And I think adding in a "new dynamic" with Carmelo will be an added bonus in terms of the motivation as well.

    Does this make Kellerman and other potential media bandwagoners our enemy.

    This has been my hope all summer. I hope Harden is up for it and is truly mad as he says he is. Winning a ring this season will be so much better than winning it last season because of how it ended.

    Bandwagoners are good as a trailing indicator of success. But until the season's over, success without bandwagoners is better.

    The only way to win is not lose.

    I totally understand the Ariza argument. But as good as Luc was in regular season, he didn't even play versus the warriors and they always bring his name up like his loss is gonna be why we can't be Golden State.
