    We got to beat these guys ones of these days. Unfortunately, I don't think this will be it.

    I have no confidence in this team at the moment.

    I agree, only this team is even deadlier than the Gary Peyton, Detlef Shrempf and Shawn Kemp Sonics. That giant preying mantis took it to another level.

    We will be up by 10 points to start the 4th quarter then lose the game by 10 points.

    If we start out down, this may be a good game for experiments...

    Did you know? If you were born after 1990, there's a 17 percent chance Shawn Kemp is your biological father.

    Loss for sure..i even put $100 on it...who the hell is gonna stop Durant? Parsons?...laughable. Who is gonna stop Westbrook? Lin? laughable. Dmo on Ibaka? laughable. I don't even need to mention Harden who's gonna let a scrub go off for sure..

    So damn depressing.

    We don't want Westbrook stopped. Every shot he takes is one Durant doesn't.

    So Durant we can't stop, Westbrook we don't want to stop. That leaves Ibaka, the Harden killer. Maybe if we keep charging the paint he'll pick up enough fouls to cramp his style.

    Then all we have to do is score.

    Not optimistic, but it could happen.

    Hopefully there will be a miracle like last year when Lin and Harden combined for 79 points. I don't know.. I hope Howard can go and James can have a big game. Also for Lin to have a good game, if not great.

    Zero optimism about this one. Unfortunately, most of you are keeping it real. Can't beat them with all our starters; what are our chances with three out? Not good. Just hope they give it an all out effort.

    Go Rockets! Whatever happens, we're having a really great season, and I'm just enjoying the ride. But the season is coming to an end too quickly. As Gordon Gekko said, "mixed emotions Bud, like driving over a cliff in my new Maserati"

    i will be at this game with friends and family...we need this game badly and badly is an understatement!!! I predict a 109-105 win for the Rox...this could be a gigantic momentum swinging game for us in more ways than one. At the end of the day, I will always support our boys through the highs and lows and through wins and loses..GO ROCKETS :cool:

    Any word on T-Jones? We can win without Dwight, but we need some bodies in the front court aside from Asik and D-Mo(especially with the rate he's committing fouls).
