    The way we're playing now reminds of us last year (#1 seed). We're perhaps playing even better than last year's team. Goes to show that health really is the key to this team. We just have to stay healthy and execute.

    Rockets played so well I'm starting to wonder if the Clippers were even trying.

    Bruh, I swear I could become better TV and sports analyst than these idiots.

    It really makes you wonder that do some of these dudes watch basketball or just look at the scoreboard, and what makes it even worse is this guy keeps track of the MVP race. SMDH

    tHE ONE cLIPPER ANNOUNCER ASKED THE SALTY ANNOUNCER THAT SOMEBODY ELSE HAS TO BE TOUCHING THE BALL. The truth of the matter is before the bulls had the triangle offense they used to isolate Mj the same way and they put Craig Hodges in the corner and as soon as Mj drew the defense he hit Craig and it was money from the corner. What MDA has done is the same except their are shooters everywhere plus High pick n roll. Mj could have done the same thing with Horace Grant that James does with Capela. The point is they said MJ could not win doing that and they did. Not everyone can be as effective playing traditional basketball. The problem is you have to have to pick a style that works best for the personnel you have. To may times these teams develop a rigid basketball doctrine and when they hit a style that exposes them they are helpless. The Rox can adjust to anything you do.

    I believe we are better with House, Rivers and Faried over Ariza, luc who was injured and Joe Johnson who was completely washed up going into the playoffs. Not expecting out of Shumpert to be honest.

    That was, by the way, the toughest opponent we have left. Now a couple gimme games against the Knicks and Suns and then we close against the Thunder.

    Faried put Trez in his place. Trz is not use to a person who has a motor greater than his

    I was like wtf...

    Harden was dominating.

    Clint ate the French baguette for breakfast.

    Mitchell was just trying hard, thats all.

    Dude must have confused the Thunder series lol..

    Honestly, I thought the dude hit the bottle in the 3rd quarter and was loosened up to the point he didn't give a faq.

    Harden and Paul both hadn't a little extra pep in their step tonight

    Clint and farried brought great energy as well , also rivers held it down for sure .

    What an idiot. Clippers when sweet Lou is hitting they run high pick n roll and rely on outside shooting. The difference the rockets put some defense on that behind

    Am I the only one that enjoyed that entire rant while we were up 40? Feels good knowing James & the Rockets ruined a Harden hater's night.
