    This is why the bubble sucks. No true home court advantage. Game 7 being played at the Toyota Center would be huge because the Rockets are full of Vets and the Thunder have so many young guys who would get rattled by the crowd and pressure.

    You shouldn't need home-court to best these guys. And having no home-court would be big in our favor next round against LA.

    If last night was any indication:

    - guys will be tight tonight
    - the reffing will be subpar, especially late. We should expect some big blown calls

    I'll tell you that I did not feel this anxiety even on the Warriors series. I would not even mention this if I were part of the organization/team, but so much at stake today.

    Please, give Dort everything he wants, shooting. By not even approaching him you allow him to think and drive. That's not the idea, limit his impact

    This matchup has more subplots than the time Bud Davis took on Wes Hightower riding the mechanical bull per the contest at Gilley's.

    Tough to get stoked for this one, the risk is very high. Lol

    Harden should shoot accurately. Especially the refs is Scott

    I’m hoping we blow this team out, my heart can’t handle close games.

    What is the FT disparity for the entire series? It has to be insane

    I'll answer my own question: It's 147-96 in favor of those annoying little gnats. And they have had the advantage in every single individual game. I'm not sure I can remember a hack job this bad by the refs in a long, long time.

    Please just win tonight Rockets.
