    I woke up twice last night after dreaming we lost game 2 in similar fashion to game 1. These have been the longest 2 days all season.

    I think we see a heavy heavy dose of harden and howard pick and roll. I feel the win tonight but I would still be upset that we didn't win game 1 when I was there. The only way I'll get over it is if we win the series in 6 not 7.

    If the Rockets would have game 1, this would have been a sweep.

    I don't know why I am so confident after game 1, but I felt like everything went Portland's way in that game and it was still lucky on their part to take game 1.

    Houston should win convincingly tonight. Game 3 is Friday in Portland?

    I wonder how the players feel when they have to wait 3 days in between games 1 and 2

    Please...Tmac and Yao are nothing to talk about as far as playoff successes are concerned.

    Glad Jeremy is feeling better. I'm going Southern Baptist and declaring health over our entire squad. Amen.

    I don't think that ever happens in the NBA. Certainly not from one game to the next. And especially not when the crew from the first game was so bad.

    Yeah, I read it wrong. Apparently what they started last year is keeping the referee crew together throughout the playoffs, rather than rotating a new person into the crew every game like they used to. So someone else will have the same 3 we had for Game 1.
