If we didn't collapse at the end of the season we could be 2-2 right now against someone else

    We shouldn't have to be playing OKC. This is bull****. They cheated to win game 2 and they hit a lucky ass shot to win game 3.
    The Rockets can't close games, the Rockets can't close the reg. season. I'll be surprised if anyone on this team can close their eyes to blink.

    AND so much bull**** from the referees. Stern: "Oh after Kevin Martin started the rip through fouls we're not going to call those anymore."

    KEVIN DURANT GETS THEM EVERY SINGLE ****ING PLAY. WHAT IN THE ****. I ****ING HATE THIS RIGGED ASS LEAGUE.

    Its only an issue when a team with a non-superstar gets preferable calls.

    If we didn't collapse at the end of Games 2 and 3 we could be 2-2 against the Thunder. Go figure.

    Calm down dude.

    I know its hard to stomach all the nonsense going on in the series and the league, but this will be a good experience for the lads.

    Building blocks... building blocks.

    We could be playing Denver right now. I bet we could win at least one game against them. We won't be able to win when Durant gets a foul call just for breathing on him.

    2-1*, point still stands. I thought going into this game that going against OKC provided Harden with the extra fuel to perform incredibly but he hasn't seemed to take it up a notch.

    Don't think we'll fare much better against the Spurs. Spurs > Westbrook-less OKC.

    Nah, he's not tripping. This is playoff basketball.

    And what he said has some semblence of sense to it.

    the hell you talking about Harden went to the line plenty of times today, he might actually have went to the line more than Durant. If you want to blame anything go blame the god awful defense during the 1st quarter and blame our players inability to hit open shots during the first half.

    I'm not worried about it. I wasn't expecting the Rockets to win this series anyway.

    Even though overall they haven't played how they are capable of, they have competed with one of the top 3 teams in the league, and could easily be up 2-1 right now if they didn't have brain farts at the end of games.

    There is a lot to like about this team for next year.

    They are down 3-0, but they were very capable of winning the last two games... the last one in OKC with Westbrook, and this one in Houston.

    I'm pleased with this young team's first playoff performance so far.

    Doesn't matter dude. This one is mostly one Lin for being more useless than the towel boy and Harden for choking harcore.

    I didn't spot any biased refereeing. They T'd up Perkins for making a chopping motion, and gave Harden a lot of regular-season fouls. They also let both teams play it out toward the end of the game.
