    Keep up the pressure on D and no turnovers!

    The 3rd quarter is crucial for us. We can't let up on D.

    Need 10 + pts lead going into the 4th.

    Just have to taper the oncoming blitz from LAC. Do that and answer, and we'll be fine.

    We've got to close the rebounding gap - Dwight is doing his part (and then some) but everyone else has to step up. Ariza and Smith and Jones need to make it their mission to get every board that's in their vicinity - block out and don't let Jordan or Blake get another offensive rebound. We do this and we have a chance to blow this open.

    Anyone have the fast break and puts in the paint stats btw?

    After the first half just down by 10? They almost sound like Houston fans. ;)

    We need to run more pick n roll in the 3rd and hopefully speed the pace up. But we have to continue to be solid on defense and the offense will take care of itself, and more James Harden in the open floor.

    Man that's a great idea actually. We usually come out all slacking in the 3rd, just put in Brewer. Guy knows one speed.

    Is it too much to ask of Harden to have a consistent 4 quarter performance?
    Because that would guarantee our victory in a blow out if Harden could just put up superstar numbers like he did in the regular season.

    3rd Quarter will be huge. Clips will make their run but we have to respond and keep even with them. We need a 10+ point advantage heading to the 4th.

    Let's win the first 6 minutes and go from there..

    Haven't they won EVERY THIRD quarter in the series? I think they have. Got to come out on fire and pound them.

    Reddick, CP3, Griffin and Jordan are all on pace to play 42+ minutes. That's going to have a heavy toll by the 4th. Rockets need to come out strong in the 3rd to force their starters to stay in the game.

    Has Chris Paul missed yet. I feel like he never misses a damn shot.

    don't let the clippers off the hook. come out blazing to start the 3rd and don't look back.

    Clips play too much heroball. They need a traditional pg if you ask me. cp3 will waste their years.
