    Tonight we get to find out if the Rockets care enough to kick the Thunder out of the playoffs. If the Rockets try, the Thunder are screwed and would need to beat a Miami team still trying to lock down playoff position in order to have any chance at the playoffs themselves.

    I've been very lucky with my nephew. Not only was he "indoctrinated" early on (he's in his 40's now) to be a fan of the Rockets, he managed (and I'm terribly jealous) to be at Harden's epic 60 point triple double at the Toy Box with his son (my "grand nephew?" "Great nephew?" Whatever they're called!), so the tradition continues. Good job, Chievous! Keep working on the kid and he'll eventually see the light. Hard to think of a better way than taking him to a game in Houston with such amazing seats. All that's needed now is a win for our heroes. After that, he'll be levitated!



    (I saw them a lot back in the day and got loaded with their drummer, Danny Thomas. Good times and Go Rockets!)

    I really can't see that happening on a ABC Saturday prime time game.

    Rockets MUST LOSE this game. We want GS to get OKC in the first round. If we beat them, we could get stuck with them in the first round. We don't want that. Now if we could kick them out of the playoffs entirely? Then again, they have been a hard match up for GS.

    Karl Lane!! Click my quote below to enter the thread cataloging his games screwing Houston

    And from this year, 1 minute left in a close game, Lane gets in the middle of a crucial play. He's gotta get a close look at Harden, afterall.

    Karl Lane -- offensive interference -- Grizzlies Ball

    The Warriors aren't going to lose a series to a team struggling to get into the playoffs. OKC isn't good.

    all these teams are too close together, y’all have no idea how things will shake out

    Rockets need to beat them and then rest up in the remaining games heading into the playoffs

    Call my greedy or whatever. But I would SOOOOOO love for Harden to have a HUGE game vs OKC on National ABC TV tonight. A Rockets win and one more "statement" game for Harden's MVP campaign. Not to mention an OKC loss puts them in real trouble with a road game vs Miami coming up. (Miami got spanked vs NY and probably will look to right themselves).

    MDA is getting his crew up to speed in these last three games for the playoffs. No way he wants to 'let them win'.
