    No more predictions from me.

    The Rockets effort is a coin flip

    We always do pretty well against these guys. Need this win because even with Blake out I can't get over the fact that we never beat the clippers. Tough back to back

    Gotta win this. I really want to see the Thunder crush the Warriors in the first round.

    This GT is unofficial. HRox342 is the legitimate poster.

    Harden could have 40-48 points, but which team is going to win the game? Who knows, but I would like to say the rockets will beat the LA Clippers on Wednesday.

    That's a good thing. 7PM tipoff tomorrow night. And the Clippers game doesn't get underway til 9:30PM the next night. So even though it's a B2B, it's not one where they're getting to their hotel in LA at 3 in the morning and are exhausted the next game.

    As for the Phoenix game, I honestly have no idea what to predict. Sans Howard, they were dominating the Suns a few weeks ago until halfway through the 4th when they nearly coughed up the win. I'm hoping for bounceback performances from nearly everyone not named James Harden or Josh Smith, so that would definitely help.

    Phoenix will be motivated after we beat them twice and coming off a Boogie buzzer beater...this is gonna be tough.

    Pencil this in as a loss.

    PHX 103
    HOU 95

    James Harden hits another game winning buzzer beater and the suns blow up their team and hands us Dragic.

    Remember when Goran Dragic had to sit out most of the last game between PHX and HOU?

    He did so because the Suns had an internal policy that says that if you get a technical foul for arguing with the refs, you have to sit the remainder of the game. It was reported at the time that the policy came from Jeff Hornacek.

    ESPN's Amin El-Hassan, who used to work for the Suns, said during a recent podcast that the policy actually came from owner Robert Sarver and not Hornacek.

    Interesting.
