    There will be NO back to backs from here on out . .. . so I think they will be liberal with the minutes if need be

    Is that near the landfill where they buried all the unsold Atari 2600 E.T. cartridges?

    I just hope they play capela more instead of dorsey .

    And I hope harden doesn't go and look for fouls and just throw it up , at least try and make it .

    I hope prigioni shoots the three when hes open instead of passing it to josh or terrence

    Sucks for dmo I wish he was playing

    To much hoping but hey it doesn't hurt

    Free throws will kill us in the series. Dwight, josh, capella, dorsey better shoot 1000 free throws after every practice

    I pray there are no sluggish starts and we spot them a double digit lead early and play catch up ball.

    It's the Playoffs. Put your big boy business pants on and go to work.

    There is a different feeling this year to last. Last year's James Harden didn't have the potent step back jumper that he possesses this year.

    If the whistles tighten up I'm still confident he will be able to put the ball in the basket.

    Please, please, PLEASE for the love of god be on the watch Dwight for flops.

    We have to win the first two games, or at least one.

    There is no way around it. This is priority No 1.

    Be poised and prepared and crush them.

    Yeah. We've gone down 0-2 in the last two years. You just can't do that, especially with homecourt. Having homecourt advantage and still losing those first two games last year was just embarrassing.
