    This is it. Let's see what this team and Harden are made of.

    This has set up for Harden to prove he's worthy of the MVP. Put your team on your back and win this game like you did so many times this season.

    Defense will win this game and our crowd wants to erupt and as soon as someone knocks down a 3 it will (just hope it's for a lead)

    They keep talking about Howards fouls, but Griffin and Jordan are in a bad foul situation. If I'm McHale I feed Howard and Jones to draw fouls. Howard needs to learn to pump fake and go up ones he gets his man in the air. We're clearly a different offense with Jordan off the floor....

    The Clippers are torching the rockets' defense without Paul. Win or lose tonight, think about what is going to happen when he comes back. Lob city will dunk us out of the building.

    James is being aggressive. He realizing no one on the clippers roster can guard him.

    Nah... will not. Clippers have our numbers the last years... there is no way going around that...

    We might win one or two games and even 3 if we are fighting but Blake Griffin won't quit.

    Other than an injury to Griffin and Crawford, I am not overly optimistic.

    Rockets should probably go small. I know Dwight is killing it but Clippers aren't nearly as good with DJ on bench. Harden has more room to roam too.

    Meh, Harden or Dwight will get their 5th foul on some bull**** joey crawford call. it'll swing the game.

    I guess DJ could get his too

    And 0-1 on all our 3-point attempts. Seriously, 2-17 from downtown?! Coupled with 29-46 from the foul line? If they lose this game by a point or 2, they've got no one to blame but themselves.

    Are Trevor Ariza and Josh Smith even on the team ? You wouldn't know it these last 2 games save for Ariza's 1st qtr in game 1. Smooth looking awesomely awful on both sides of the ball in both games Jesus Mighty....

    Btw Lol at people that thought that Rivers wasnt gonna Hack a Rocket big this series...

    Really they can hack anyone not named Jason terry or James Harden and would result in good things..

    We need to get fired up to win this game. If Ariza could make 3 pointers we would win.
