    Not since the CP3 team of 2017/18 have I looked at every game on the schedule and not seen one game that looks like a guaranteed loss. These boys are in every game, fam. We back.

    But the Rockets Harden teams were never great either lol, they only got 1st seed once in the Harden era. Apart from that one hit wonder year the Rockets never achieved meaningful results.

    Its a false equivalence the Harden teams were also good but never great. We are back and much better than before because we dont have a bunch of guys in their 30s we have a bunch if kids in their early 20s.

    Agreed … with the exception of the Celtics. I hope to be wrong, but it just seems like a horrible matchup, made worse with Jabari out. But let’s see!

    Celtics are all over the place this season. They seem to be more complete with Holiday back in the lineup. Besides, Ime knows their playbook.

    Celctics, Kings, and Heat seem to have our number. Everyone else is fair game.

    Out of curiosity, which teams on the 2019 Rockets team schedule did you feel we couldn't win? The Warriors? I mean they beat the Warriors 3 times that year and I can't imagine you were so scared of another team that season.

    I’d that’s the Melo season, they clearly wasn’t as good as the year before. Eric Gordon was as streaky as ever. We re giving minutes to sefloesha(I’m ot even goin check to spell his name) . We beat the Warriors but I was shocked every time.

    We also missed Amen (suspension) and Eason in the last match. So with both of them back, I believe we can get the W tomorrow.
