    and a 25 year old, 6'1" Patrick Beverley out-rebounded a 6'11" LMA to win the game. Truth! :cool:

    If Harden took a shot but missed instead of losing the ball, we could have lost the game.

    If Lin lobbed it to Dwight for a slam dunk ... that's only 2 points. Which means that at the other end, the Rockets need to defend against a game winning 3-pointer AND a 2 point jumper or layup that would have tied it and forced 2OT.

    Kicking it out to Daniels was a high risk play .... but the reward is that the Rockets are up 3-points and the Blazers needed a 3-pointer to tie. That puts much less pressure on the Rockets defense.

    If Troy missed, DH would have been there to rebound the ball with someone much shorter than him defending.

    If:
    Harden loses the ball out of bounds
    Harden shoots and misses
    Parsons does not foul out
    Lin passes to Howard who is fouled
    Refs call a loose ball foul on Lin
    Mo Williams miraculously calls a timeout
    Lin slips
    Daniels misses

    then we could have lost.

    And there are literally 1,000 things that could have changed the outcome of game 1.
