    Ok man. Great. Again I am aware of Westbrook. I’m not talking about Russ, you are. I’m talking about CP3.

    They lost to the suns by 27 and got a ass whooping tonight by the heat at full strength! The Last two losses have been by a combined total of 45 points.

    Strong as ever?

    Its gonna be a wild series, Thunder can play small with their guards they have, the infamous andre roberson is back to guard harden, the mystery of Westbrook injury. Its the worst match up to get in the first round over the Jazz but rather face the lakers over clippers in the 2nd round.

    I know you are. But hey calling for an injury for someone and not taking into account the other player isn’t healthy at all, isn’t exactly the smartest thing to do but ok you got it

    CP only fans everywhere.

    Rockets are going to win this series. If they lose it, might as well blow the whole team up at that point.

    CP3 is trash and a bum. We payed him 40 million dollars. I'm glad he is gone. He will beat us in 5.

    Fate led us to this series. Fate will insure that we defeat them if we all send good vibes to the team. Guess I’m going to have to dig out my little table from the garage, fill a large bowl with popcorn, shove my Jerry Lin bobble head into it upside down, stick some pins in his leg where this damn quad thingy is (I will look it up), light the candles and the incense, and chant “the Thunder SUCK - the Thunder SUCK - the Thunder SUCK” before each game.

    That is my mission. While it didn’t work against the Worriers, I forgot the pins. The pins are essential.

    Oh I checked my nba app a while back it was 100 to 82 but yeah they won by 1. They don’t really pose a major threat with a healthy Rockets team but it could go 6

    Oh I already knew you were a box scorer who doesn’t watch games.

    They definitely pose a threat, especially if harden is alone. And cf’s will be singing a different tune once this series starts. Keep acting like this is gonna be some easy series

    They arent gonna get it until reality slaps them really hard. We can beat them. But we are gonna have to be vey VERY sharp defensively.
