    This teams is on a mission those first 5 minutes were as elite as I have ever seen any team play both sides of the ball in all my life. if we can get stretches of play like that I really don't see any team being able to compete with us. The way dwight was playing defense I don't care if your Jordan or lebron you weren't getting to that rim over him last night. Harden and Howard really are a great duo harden is more than good enough to be the focal of any offense in any era number and eye back that up. Dwight is good enough to man an elite defense by himself this guy was incredible for those 17 minutes.

    I'm serious as they come when I say this. If dwight can play that way and figure out a way to get just 8 more minutes on the court I don't care if he fouls out. 25 min and 6 fouls of that Dwight is better than 48 minutes of deandre Jordan or any other center in the game and the rockets won't be touched this playoffs.

    Ps harden is the best player in the nba by a long shot and the nba family knows it look at all these new harden commercials all over ESPN and abc. This guy is a transcendent player and is going to be a altime great. He's getting it done this playoffs last night he played flawless and was leading his guys and they followed. I know you guys saw Hakeem smiling at the end of the 4th when harden was waving his hands up to the crowd before shooting free throws. Hakeem never smiles like that. This harden guy is speacial.

    He has to win one of course but he's the first rocket since Hakeem were I truely feel he's good enough to win multiple championships with.

    Need Smoove to step up. Last game was not his best to say the least. Can't deny the defensive impact he and dwight have with the 1-2 high energy boosting plays per game he has.

    Even he will experience 'good shooting nights'.

    Thanks clutch!
    Getting veterans with poise and no hype is so much better than overhyped young players.
    Josh was a former all star for Atlanta and it seems he's showing why.
    I can't believe we got him for nothing

    The experience on the bench is truly paying off...

    Having Smith play with Clint is a huge help for him....
