    Someone get this to the clowns at The Ringer too.

    They finished off their latest podcast by crapping on Mike D'Antoni for saying that the Rockets can beat anyone, anywhere if they play at their best, and for saying the Rockets didn't change what they do in Game 2:

    And while they completely ignored the statistics from Game 2, the last thing said on the podcast was this scorching hot take about D'Antoni's presser, which just underlines an absolute lack of self awareness:

    I've been FED up with the Ringer too...read this article if you want to ruin your night. The only half decent one is Kevin O'Connor...nobody else even watches the games.

    Yes, The Difference from Game 1 to Game 2 is: * Defense was much better, *Our Energy was absolutely awesome, * We played very physical (we hit them before they hit us, we initiated the contact by being the aggressor), *Eventhough, we have the similar number of isolations and passes, we initiated the offense earlier in the shot clock rather than passing with a few ticks left on the shot clock, *Turnovers (we didn't turn the ball over like we did in Game 1 and yet we forced Golden State cough up the ball 16 times) and at last, the Most Important Difference is that WE MADE SHOTS from all over (FG was over 51%). Balance scoring rather than just Harden and CP3. Ariza, Tucker, Gordon were Superb in Game 2.

    Lets focus on Game 3, now this becomes a Best of 5 Series with (Games 3, 4, and 6 on the Road). Instead of looking this as win 3 out of the next 5, think about it as ONE GAME AT A TIME...Remember the old days when our Team were down 0-2, 1-3, but bounced back and won the series. Lets Go Get GAME 3.

    Go Rockets!
