    we just need a 60 triple double game from Harden, a game of Game 5 vs j*zz CP3, a game of Game 2 vs worriers of role players. 3 wins and we are into the finals!

    Predicable comeback game at home after getting drummed for the Warriors. Now it's time for the Rockets to respond.

    To be honest, if we had to lose a game in GS. I truly believe Game 3 was that game. Hopefully Houston seeing Curry Shimmy, fans doing Harden cook celebration, getting blown out by 40 points and Warriors showing why they are the champions, lights one of the biggest fires under the Rockets' ass. Winning game 4 and heading back to a craze Houston crowd is very ideal. Iggy is hurt and doubtful to play, thus, Harden... go off for 50. Please, CP3.. You too. Gordon, stop dribbling with damn butter on your hands.

    If we don't win the series, the focus should be on why the team played so terribly at home in Game 1. That was the game we should've won. Unreal that an old team full of vets would have trouble communicating on defense, especially with this being a recurring issue.

    I am just now seeing highlights of the game (1st half phone 2nd half radio). That shimmy after the shot on Harden alone should be enough to spark a fire under Harden in Game 4.

    I secretly was hoping for a blowout loss in game 3, so that they bounce back, hope I'm not wrong

    Have a bad feeling we're getting Tony Brothers tomorrow. Scotty Foster is doing tonight's game and Brother's is due to be rotated in.

    I'm sure Draymond Green "clipping" CP3 from behind didn't help.

    Chris Paul needs more heat on him, he hasn't had hardly any impact at all

    So, him being out is very bad news on the defensive side of the ball? LOL

    I don't know what I'm looking at obviously. I assume the numbers are a lot worse when he's out but I saw the word "improvement" with a number increase. I dunno. Doh!

    I am surprisingly calm. A blowout loss feels much better than a close loss tbh.

    Not because I hate Curry, but that shimmy was the fruitiest thing I have seen in long time in an NBA game.

    Lebron shows Harden how to be a real leader.
