    Except for House. He struggles at making a drive all the way to the rim and scoring.

    LA will get the calls too. I don't doubt that for a minute.

    Honestly thought I'd see Mike Tyson or Chandler Parsons on the court in this series before Tyson Chandler.

    perhaps its because they were mostly 'in rhythm 3s' starting from the 3rd quarter and rockets even started the game with emphasis on driving

    harden scored a layup on 8 possessions and gordon scored a layup on 9 possesions it was the smartest basketball i ever saw rockets play

    Thunder only led for about 3 minutes out of 48. Solid W for the Rox.

    Schroder is okc trigger point, if we can guard and stop his performance. Houston can get an easy win. Previously, they have PG13, I believe Houston can win, If MDA asks Tucker to guard him

    OMG the Rockets had the 2nd best defensive game of the entire year. Including all NBA teams!

    Schroder shouldn’t even be playing game 6...he needs to get suspended

    agreed that he has been our biggest issue tho
