    All I got out of that is....The Clippers feel extremely confident with their chances...seeing as they split 2-2 with out ever facing Dwight.

    Not sure if I'd be "Extremely Confident."

    Howard HATES going out on the perimeter. Looks like a fish out of water.

    Probably because Doc didn't wanna have DeAndre out there until Pop couldn't foul him intentionally.

    Yeah I agree. As soon as the clock hit 2mins left in the 4th, Deandre got up from the bench immediately and to the scorers table.

    Smith is one who is going to going out on the perimeter, not Howard.

    The Clippers are an emotionally volatile team. The Rockets need to be proactive and use that and show them no respect, just like they did with Lebron/Cleveland this year. They need to be physically aggressive and get the Clippers b****ing at the refs, while they remain calm and focused.

    We are the number 2 seed yet they still treat us as under dogs. **** ESPN and their predictions.

    I like being cast as the underdog in this series. Rockets get no respect no matter what, most experts are picking in Clippers in 5 or 6. I can't to prove them wrong. Dwight did not play in any of the Clippers games and Blake missed only one of the games. The bench will be key for the Rockets in this series.

    Chris Paul will go through shoot around, likely game time decision - (DOC RIVERS 5/4/15)
