    I'm with you on that. If we've been hanging around OKC by around 3 points the past few games with Harden struggling...how much better can we be when they have to put more pressure on Parsons and let Harden gain some steam?

    The series is much closer than 3-1. The last three games are all down to wire. If we win tonight, we can totally win out.

    Coming back from being down 0-3 as the 8th seed against the 1st seed just doesn't happen. The chances are incredibly, incredibly slim. That said, it wouldn't be too much of a shocker if we won tonight and took OKC to 6 games.

    We'd be making NBA history. I'd rather the Rockets be the only team in NBA history to come back from an 0-3 deficit rather than some 22 wins in a row record.

    I believe that it can happen. What I don't want is to end the season with a blow out loss. Let's make them sweat.

    Who knows? Probably not, but they could. Right now the question is: Can they win tonight? The answer to that is yes.

    Everyone who thinks the Rockets have no chance hasn't spent enough time gambling. All sorts of things can happen, especially in sports.

    If you go straight by what Vegas says, the Rockets likely have a 2% chance of winning (20% tonight, 50% game 6, 20% game 7). String those together and it's 2%

    I think it's higher. The Thunder just aren't the same team without Westbrook. But even if the real chances aren't higher, I've seen plenty of 2% things in my life happen to not count the Rockets out.
