    We need to feed Howard and set screens to get Harden open. Curry is going to shoot his 3s. We just have to try and contain the rest of the team. Their crowd is going to be loud. We have to play at our pace and get them out of rhythm. Easier said than done.

    I agree bring them pretty boys on . I'm already a big time homer and after this series I'm very confident we can win it all.

    Man I'm floating so high bump flying on the chopper to the rig in the morning. Lol I can fly myself.

    I missed it! Did they show that on the broadcast? Couldn't get tickets, so I watched it at home in Austin. You probably saw it at the game, you lucky dog. :)-

    Did I not say repeatedly, if the Rockets actually play defense, they can beat the Clippers? Giving up nearly 120 PPG through the first 4 was ridiculous.

    The problem of course is we have to go from one explosive offensive team like LA to another in Golden State. And the Warriors actually have a bench(and a damn good one too).

    I still got freaking goosebumps.

    What a game. What a week.

    There's nothing better to see than a group of guys come together and give every single thing they've got in every second of the game. McHale did a great job of getting them in that mindset, but credit goes to the players.

    They fought, they clawed, and they battled on every single possession for 3 straight games, and they were rewarded for it. This team has been inspirational to watch. I've always loved basketball and thought it was beautiful to watch when it was played the right way... And these guys have played it the right way.

    I couldn't be more proud to be a Rockets fan.
