    Game is already very chippy in the first 5 minutes. It's going to a game of attrition.

    We got a lucky draw here. We can't keep shooting like this and expect to go anywhere. But we can get past OKy Doke.

    They look really active. Thats all you can ask from them on the defensive end. Playoff Tucker is getting alot of hands on the ball.

    Don't overhype Adam's fall... nothing wrong with this dude at all.

    Why the Rockets didnt keep a big or try to get one!? The reason we went all small was bc of Westbrook and since hes hurt, Now what? Harden was great with a pick and roll big, Its good to have one man for situations like this if someone gets hurt.

    Gordon has been complete trash for years now, no one should be surprised.

    Wasn't a foul at all on Tuck, Adams arm was hooking his if anything. Ball don't lie.

    We are playing as if we expect the refs to let us play since its the playoffs but refs are calling it tight so we have to make the adjustment.
