    It was the right play. Being aggressive, good things happen.

    We survived two times in close games in the 3rd, but i think in both of those quarters CP3 had a big impact...hopefully we will be able to keep them off and i trust our guys heart at this point, but i'm ready for the worst.

    Not the perfect second quarter, but overall I am happy with their poise.

    Warriors got away with some bullshit and were still up double digits. Couldn't ask for a better half. Lets get this guys. I want this so bad been waiting since before puberty. Am 34 years old now and Rockets are my pride and joy....

    Looks like early season rocket. Fast pace, high risk high reward basketball. Lots of scoring opportunities but lot of turnovers. Hopefully we protect the ball and can weather the storm do the third quarter. We have to punch em in the mouth again if we want to have a chance to win. Couldn’t ask for a better 1st half.

    Our defense and rebounding has been so good. They seem to be missing shots, hopefully that continues but I feel like even if they start to heat up in the 3rd our defense can tame it.

    Considering who we are missing....and who we are playing against, this is the best thing we could have asked for.

    If we can keep 70% of this tempo in 2nd half we'll be fine. Everyones focused

    I expected more from Moute, but he hasn't hurt us. 7 man rotation.

    That was a great first half way better than I expected. The warriors are feeling tight. I get the feeling that when they could take over in that run that might make them more uneasy. Rockets still making too many mental mistakes. If we can cut down in the mistakes and weather the third GSW might fold
