    This win doesn't have that feeling of game 3.

    But to think WE could be up 3-2 tonight...

    Bygones. We will take this win and we have to go to Portland now and take one again on their floor.

    For the first time in this series, the Rockets staved off every Blazers rally.

    Alright 2 big plays on D by Howard and Harden. We won this the right way - not with last minute heroics but with solid defense and then drawing the frustration fouls from Portland. That has to be the template going forward - no dribbling at the top of the key hoping the defender will get off balance long enough to get an open 3.

    Lin and Dwight carried us in some key stretches.
    Parsons had a great first half, as usual.

    James, continued to struggle, but made em when we needed em.
    I still think the guy must have some personal problems going on or something.

    I like how the refs let the teams play for the most part. There were some bad calls on both sides, but it's long overdue that a few went our way for a change.

    People can't say Lin didn't redeem himself for that turnover last game by winning this game.

    Good win but lets not celebrate yet.

    We know the critical one is the next game in Portland.

    Harden is actually a bigger concern after this game.
